...are you saying that Revenge Of The Sith is better than Return Of The Jedi?
Da fuq? No.
I was thinking more of how the original Xenogears episodes were suppose to play out.

What?
He is god-like.
He can FLY, bring people back to life, stop bullets, use telekinesis, see through stuff etc....
I've introduced more than a few people to the Matrix. I tell them to watch the first movie, and act as if the other two don't exist. They all come back after the first asking about the sequels anyway. I tell them that if they like the first movie, don't screw it up by watching the other two.
It's not just Zion, it's the vast majority of the stuff that happens outside of the Matrix that is hot garbage. Even the whole Dark Sky concept was a poorly thought out plot device. Smith getting out of the Matrix and Neo on WiFi were borderline shark jumping.

Another Animatrix project is the only Matrix related news that could ever be good.
I'm in. Sounds entertaining. Did the last two Matrix films compare to the first one? No. But they are fun to watch.
It is.
It is.
Yeah, I don't understand people who claim Neo was gimped in the sequels. The first thing he does in Reloaded is take on 3 upgraded agents without breaking a sweat. Then flies off just like he did at the end of The Matrix.

Yep and he was still stopping bullets and shit.
Clearly this proves your thoughts and wishes influence the universe.

So if that's true, then they're making a live action Second Renaissance?
I guess that's not the most terrible thing...SR was pretty good.

As much as I'd like to take the cultured high road here and say that potentially shitting on an established and generally well-liked franchise with a new body of work is unthinkable...
... I'm a total Matrix slut, and if they could somehow capture the feeling of the original I'd happily watch a dozen more Matrix movies.
Of course I'd also be thrilled if they expanded on some of the happenings from Second Renaissance instead.

V for Vandetta is glaring at yoy SO HARD right now. Also Speed Racer.
But yeah, Cloud Atlas was junk.
Umm...I'm quite sure you could. New characters and a different timeframe would be good, but a prequel and you'd know how it would end.
Then there's this abomination from a few years ago: The Matrix Resurrection. It is a fan-made script, but I could see the final movie being this completely and utterly ridiculous.

Do audiences still remember this franchise? There haven't been any spin offs or products in almost a decade that I can think of. None of the actors have any box office draw anymore except for maybe Hugo Weaving, and all the Wachowski's follow up movies have flopped.
I think so. The original film is iconic in many ways.

It's been parodied and homaged to death though. I'm not sure if that helps or hurts it.

Congratulations, you really deserve it!
Another Matrix would be good. The last two were pretty awful, but still fun to watch.

First prequel starts out with 8 year old Agent Smith.
lol. I think I'm ready for a new trilogy. It could be amazing. I really want Keanu to be in it, but if it's a prequel you can't really have him do anything and if it's not, well his story was kind of done. I can't even imagine the story becoming even crazier than it was in 3. Say what you will about the movies as a whole but the freeway chase and staircase fight with medieval weapons was awesome.

1st one was ACE
2nd and 3rd was mehhhh got too much biblical and lost the feeling

This doesn't really surprise me given every studio is mining their IP library to see what properties and films they can polish and reboot. But as a fan of all three Matrix films I'm very happy at this potential development.
But the one thing in the article from Latino Review (who I rate above most other fanboy sites when it comes to rumours) that gives me pause is this...,
I heard (well before Xmas admittedly) that Warners were super enthusiastic about the way Jupiter Ascending turned out....,
The studio really wants to be in business with Channing Tatum and the Wachowskis so if this does turn out to be true I'd say that, at the moment, (providing Jupiter Ascending does as well as the studio hopes) this is probably part of a new deal for the Wachowskis at WB.
As things stand I imagine the siblings will still write and direct the Jupiter Ascending trilogy and just 'supervise' (co-write and produce?) these new Matrix films.
But these things are always a moving target. I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.

unlike other summer offerings from the studio like Godzilla and Blended.

I had small issues with Reloaded(Well pretty much anything related to Zion) but Revolutions... WAS AWFUL. Goddamn awful. I walked out of the movie Theatre.
I know the Wachowski's are into kinky shit but the gimp stuff did not look cool. It looked out of place.
But I'm all for a come back to the franchise that launched their career. Give it a go.
The difference between the Wachowski's and George Lucas is that Lucas was financing the movies personally. He could make anything he wanted. I don't think the wachowski's have that privilege.

Latino Review says that WB wants to have a new Matrix movie ready for 2017:
I don't really trust anything Latino Review says and I expect this to be total BS, but who knows. I'd be pretty hyped if this is real though.
I recently re-watched the trilogy and I found it a lot better the 2nd time around. I would like to see another set of movies in the Matrix universe.
The precedent is already set within the movie universe as well.

Neo wasn't the first "one" so I think it's safe to say he won't be the last. Peace between humans and machines is already tenuous so the need for another "one" wouldn't be that outlandish.
