They should've stopped after the first one.

I won't begrudge the Wachowskis taking an easy pay day on the sequels. They get a lot of leeway after making the fucking Matrix.

Well, the fourth part is totally fine by that logic.

Sort of? I mean I blame the studios who funded it for that shit. After watching the 4th one if I had to describe it in one word it would have to be "unnecessary".

Naw the second movie was great. Third one was okay. The fourth movie was unnecessary. Fifth one... ill hold my breath.

the second is in many ways one of the best sequels of all time, that's my little hill I'll die on

I like to watch the first movie, then look up the action scenes in the sequels on YouTube

[–] Aux@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago

Yeah, that's a good idea!

Okay, I'm glad I'm not alone on that. There's some interesting ideas, but it's way too artsy, imo. I muscled through, but I don't think I'll watch it again.
