I'll readily admit I have only seen the sequels the one time in the theater and never again and will definitely revisit all 3 before 4 comes out since I have largely forgotten them. The trailer really just did not hype me up though. :/

As someone who has seen all 3 Matrix films numerous times, the Resurrections trailer got me mad loving hype. Everything about it just hit all the right notes for me. Once I heard the cue kick in, I was like "ok, that's perfect actually lmao" and yeah, the music complimented all the visuals amazingly. All of it gave me goosebumps. I'm particularly found of every shot including Jessica Henwick—she looks so badass :allears:

Despite having "died" during the course of the third film, Trinity made a return to the series in the official continuation, The Matrix Online. Taking on a major role in the game's final chapters it is revealed both she and Neo are actually the culmination of decades of Machine research into translating human DNA perfectly into Machine code, allowing them to interface directly with technology without the need for simulated interfaces. Originally developed by The Oracle, this program is called The Biological Interface Program and is strongly sought after by the Oligarchy as a means to transfer their digital minds to physical bodies instead of the mechanical androids they had developed.

Without a physical form, Trinity takes the appearance of a floating figure made of golden code when within The Matrix. Initially distraught with her condition, she eventually finds solace in the fact her existence is the key to finally rebooting the Matrix and erasing Oligarch override control once and for all.

She ultimately meets her end in the Source of The Matrix, merging with a human inside the core of the Machine code base itself, combining the three core groups; Man, Machine and Program. This initializes the final reboot sequence, removing the Oligarch control and allowing the Machines to finally exist without fear of cruel masters.

So I guess they're going to have to cover all this ground in the so everyone knows what's going on? Will be interesting to see how it's approached for sure. Appreciate the infos!

If I've learned anything, modern audience outside of pedants like us won't complain about shockingly bad CG so why shoot the scene, just put it in as-is.

A little disappointed that the Matrix trailer seems to still be swimming in the whole lone savior narrative that hobbled the Matrix sequels. And leaves the only option of reality the dour cave people existence that is just boring as gently caress to watch.

I guess I'm just here to see some cool poo poo happen

The first hour and a half of Resurrections should just be a YouTuber summing up the entire expanded universe to catch everyone up. Then 15 minutes of the new footage, cut to credits.

Maybe they could get Mega64 to do it, it worked well with Kingdom Hearts:

Because Larry Fishburne is pushing 250. He's a fine actor to be sure, but he's been fat as far back as Predators. His character had been surviving for 10 years on an alien world while being hunted by vicious aliens, but was hiding in a crashed ship that must have contained a planet's supply of Moon Pies.

Does this shot here look like a WIP to anyone else? Like the stuff outside the frame in the middle is just the VFX overlay without footage behind it.

Hell, he pretty much says "mate, I'm a proper fat gently caress!" in Mission: Impossible III.

Fishbourne had def put on weight by the time he was finishing Hannibal and it didn't impede the gravity of his performance, though yeah it's a very different type of character compared to Morpheus' physical peak discipline dealio.

With the right studio funded training, diet, and growth hormone regimen, any actor can get super ripped (see Bob Odenkirk).

It also may lead to a having an on-set heart attack in the middle of production on your next project (see Bob Odenkirk).

It's not uncommon for films to not have their VFX work complete until a couple weeks before it hits theaters. Most recent one I read about was Endgame, which wasn't VFX complete until 2.5 weeks before it premiered.

This is wild speculation that’s kinda gross when there’s probably just story reasons that Fishbourne isn’t in the movie and we can just watch the film in two months and find out why

The story can be whatever the writer wants it to be, though. If they wanted him in it badly enough, there'd be a scene where he's sitting on a stool talking to them for a few minutes and then at the end he shows up flying the Millennium Falcon to help defeat the super-emperor.
