Thought the Architect, Colonel Sanders, was explaining to Neo why he was doomed to failure just like all the previous incarnations of "The One," which so happened to look exactly like him. The fact that Neo actually succeeded that time was a surprise to the Architect. The storyline was so steeped in Gnosticism, what is left to flesh out? Really, we need a new evil for the emissary, The One, to turn it from evil to good. That is the main reason why cannot understand how Neo can be involved except to be the anchor point for the ending of the new story.
He did fail though and he kind of did what he was designed to do. He was meant to be a great big bug finding and fixing program this is what resulted in the powers of The One. He then returns to the source gets reintegrated and the Matrix gets updated with the collected bug fixes. Neo's goal was to bring The Matrix down and free all the humans from the machines rule. In the end, he reached an agreement to free humans that wanted to be freed and then went ahead and fixed the massive corruption (bug) that was The Agent Smith program, resulting in the Matrix rebooting I would assume with fixes to prevent something like that happening again. He pretty much did exactly what he was designed to do. He still failed, he didn't free all humans he didn't over throw the machines and he ended up just being a bug fixing anomaly as the Architect said he was all along. At least looking back on it it seems that way. I agree though their isn't really anywhere for the story to go except some obvious The Machines betrayed the deal lets finish them off this time or some daft un told twist devised specifically to give the new movies something 'deeper' to work on other than a simple The Machines betrayed the deal plot.
I can see that he did fail; the compromise with the Machines. Will have to watch the final installment again. Some reason remembering a scene with the Oracle and the Architect going over their score card with the Architect agreeing that this time The One actually succeeded where the others failed. Something like ok, you finally came out on top for once. Curiosity is going. Actually want to see where they are going to take this. Just do not want to end up like the proverbial cat.
Yeah it's been a while since I saw the movies so can't remember the finer details, thinking on it I am not sure if it was Neo who agreed to humans wanting to leave being allowed to leave or The Oracle just chin wagging about it at the end with Colonel Sanders. My main worry is this is WB (Warner Brothers) trying to stir up anything that might make them money. Their DCEU is all but dead, Harry Potter is long gone and it looks like the Intresting Beasts movies aren't doing as well as they want. Their Dark Universe (I think that's the one, The Mummy with Tom Cruise last year was meant to be the kick off to that EU) is dead as well.
IF this turns out to be true, and Keanu Reeves is actually in it, chances for it to fail are slim. The man has reinvented himself (or better said people rediscovered him) through the John Wick movies, and now to come back to his initial most-iconic role will be a treat. I mean sure, the writers and stuff that's independent of the actors can still screw up, but either way, I'm pretty hyped for this (again, if true).
Blame the developer for that. I still blame them for not having a memory save function in Earthworm Jim on the Sega, meanign the entire game had to be played from beginning to end in one sitting. Cheapass ****ers
Agent smith is THE ONE in the matrix..........And Keanu's most famous role was Bill n Ted's excellent adventure. that said I love the MATRIX it has you!
I really loved that first movie, right up to the "I love you" moment. That killed the entire franchise for me, and it was nothing but popcorn action thereafter. I enjoyed the second movie as a pure action movie (the highway scene was pretty cool), and it was an interesting step forward for special effects. Really, the only big of it that had a decent story was a few pieces of the Animatrix.
Actually he did, when it comes to big hollywood movies. Source: https://www.indiewire.com/2014/10/k...ng-more-offers-from-hollywood-it-sucks-68883/
My Mother called me talking about this; I literally thought she was joking. I can see she wasn’t. Part of me wants to be a cynic and wish she was. The rest of me wants them to pull this off and take us back to the quality of story and production of the original Matrix.I’d have thought Keanu was too out of this element by now but then he was in some of the best three action films ever done from a casting, directing & choreography perspective: The John Wick franchise. So what the Hell.
not sure I this a good thing or bad thing, I didnt perticually like Keanu Reeves in this was interesting movie for the time though john wick is one of his best work. rest was meh I did like bill and ted (franchise) growing up
I am wondering what they plan to do with the SFX. Each of the Matrix movies did something to push SFX. The first one gave us bullet time, the second one gave us the multi Smith fight (which has aged badly) and the Highway chase and the third one gave us the battle of Zion, all of them were pushing SFX boundaries in some way or another so I am wondering what they plan to do with the fourth one. Is their anything they can do?
This EDIT: It’s a difficult time to “raise the bar” without crossing the uncanny valley. Example, Alita: Battle Angle I kept feeling like I was getting pulled out of the movie at certain moments watching that, although I did enjoy the film.
I am praying they deliver on this one. I believe they can make it unique, but it will depend on the mood and taste of the movie. I know this might be a stretch, but take John Wick for example. The first was good, second not so much, but for me the third really delivered on the gunplay, very much so for me. So let's hope the 4th installment of the Matrix will live up to the first movies standards which has become a classic in the action movie world.
Nobody remembers that since it was probably the worst movie IP adaption to a game ever done since E.T. (which I haven't played). Even if it didn't crash, it was utter rubbish.
