Their has been some rumors going around yesterday that a new Matrix movie is in the work.Unlike the first Matrix movie it won't have Neo or Trinity or the other past cast it will have more a Kung Fu look.
 
Based on how clear the producers were that there would never be a fourth one ("Let me tell you. There is not going to be a fourth") I'll put my negligible reputation on the line and say : No chance whatsoever.
 
Yeah I agree with Histeria on this as these rumours sound like a load of rubbish. There will be constant false rumours about a fourth Matrix film but it is never going to happen so dont get your hopes up!
 
It wont be a matrix 4, but another spin off like the animated title inbetween the first two movies

They wouldn't touch the Matrix title again
 
everyone is always shooting down possible new films, but if hollywood has taught us (some of us that is)

IF THERES MONEY TO BE MADE THEY'LL MAKE SEQUELS/REMAKES WHATEVER THE OUTPUT IS
 
I agree with you mate. I thought the first film was the best film I'd ever seen (when I first watched it). Thought the next two were utter rubbish though - total let down.
 
The first movie was great, tightly written and directed, with a strong sense of purpose.

Reloaded and Revolutions were big, bloated, yet empty. Compare how much happens in the Matrix with Reloaded for example. Outside of the action sequences, Reloaded is awful and boring. The action sequences and set-pieces are brilliant (the Burly Brawl and the fight in the castle being stunningly choreographed and exillirating), but the stuff in Zion is very poor indeed.

Revolutions enRAB quite well, but like Reloaded the structure is messy and there is far too much emphasis on dullarRAB in Zion.
 
I liked the second. The first film was very simple, good guys versus bad guys. The humans were the good guys and the machines and their agents were the bad guys. The philosophy was nothing new if you've ever read Alice Through the Looking Glass and wondered about dreams and reality. The visuals all looked a bit dingy. I thought the early little drops about Neo being the messiah were tedious.

The second film is more complex. It's no longer a two-way battle. It's at least 3 way, humans versus machines versus Mr Smith, plus various other programs like the Merovingian and the Architect who have their own agenda, plus the Oracle is no longer human and much more ambivalent. The philosophy, although not necessarily correct at least now it's not totally obvious (about choices being predictable and the need to understand choices already made). The visuals seem prettier and the SFX more polished and assured. I liked that they faced up to some of the consequences of Neo being the messiah.

The third film loses it, though. Shame. The resolution is too mystical for me.

In some ways the first film is better cinema. The second film tenRAB to alternate talk-heavy bits with SFX-heavy bits, and I can see that would put off some people. Also, I think the philosophy in the first film was new to some people. So I can see why people like the first film, but the second film is underrated in my view.
