In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) look forward to a new life under Ruben Amorim. What system will we be playing? What players will impress? and how will it all go? We also say goodbye to Ruud Van Nistelrooy and review United's 3-0 win at home against Leicester City.
Nah for me they've done well to keep some core in Neo/Trinity and introduce new characters everywhere else. My guess is this is another iteration of the Matrix, perhaps one of the 1-6 where their work enables V7 to do it's thing.What? I think you are going to be disappointed then
Sitting in a shitty seat, Imax or not, is gonna be shitty. So yeah.
Because life sucks Sol and we live in a world where Ted Lasso gets awardsWhy are there even seats that are shitty
I think this too. Weaving and Fishburne are much older gentlemen and probably wouldn't make sense for them here. I'm sure they'll be back in a role like Mark Hamill in the new Star Wars saga if this film is a success and they green light more.
Keanu on the other hand takes really good care of himself, I think he practices BJJ and MMA as a hobby anyway and has proven with John Wick series that he can pull off action scenes better than most Hollywood actors and still has that cult following of his.
I wanna know where that cnut Cypher is
What taking the red pill does to a man.
They need to do another Animatrix. Have to.
I believe that this fourth movie will be a lot better than the 2nd and 3rd. Not because the sequels were that bad (I like them btw), but because from the looks of it, the fourth movie goes back to basics and there will be less flying scenes.
We will see Neo interacting with regular people within the Matrix alot more than him doing his superman-thing and fly pass people and above cities. Personally, without Neo's ability to fly the sequels would have been alot better.

Quite liked that trailer. Hopefully because they've already done the 'disappear up it's own arse' thing and got that out of the way this new one can just concentrate on the things that everybody loved about it.
He died in another piece of canon
Can't believe they shot him out of a cannon.
Its gonna be awful, be great if it wasn't though do love the original!
No, I'm confident this will be as good as the original.
Has Grant Morrison written some new Invisibles comics then?
Hopefully it's so bad that it's good but really looks like another nostalgia cash out.
A lot of first Matrix is nicked stuff from Grant Morrison Invisibles. Can't find the link but this is old Morrison interview from 2005
King level answer.
A friend watched the trilogy for the first time a few months back and is very excited for this. So at the end of December I'm fully expecting a giant tsunami wave of Omicron to enter every single one of my pores as the packed audience cheers for the Mr. Anderson line.unironically excited to risk omicron and watch this
Wooow - can't wait. It looks like this is the next iteration of the Matrix but for some reason Neo & Trinity have been resurrected (although it looks like Trinity might be 'the One' in this next iteration). Also, it looks like they'll do what they did with the Oracle with Morpheus and Agent Smith.
The Matrix has borrowed from a few sources - content wise the Grant Morrison Invisibles link is undeniable. The aesthetics people are saying they nicked from the Blade movie in the 90s. The underlying philosophical questions from the movie, i.e. what is reality, what is the nature of being, what is choice etc they borrowed heavily from the Landmark Forum (of which both the Wachowskis attended in the US). This was a new iteration of the EST training done by Werner Erhard in 70s.A lot of first Matrix is nicked stuff from Grant Morrison Invisibles.

Have the Wachowski's actually made anything good since the first one? I'd say it'll be pure muck.
The trailer looks very good. However, I do not want to get excited about it, better no expectations and a great surprise, than high expectations and it sucking.
Wowza.A lot of first Matrix is nicked stuff from Grant Morrison Invisibles. Can't find the link but this is old Morrison interview from 2005

Yeah based on their body of work I don't have high hopes at all.
They wrote V for Vendentta, which I remember really liking but I haven't seen it in about 15 years.
Other then that.... no.
V For Vendetta was a adaptation from Moore's comic book and a average one at that.
Kinda wish he shaves off the beard. So he looks like Neo and not John Wick.
The kung-fu line was so unnecessary.
Oh thats a good shout, totally forgot about Blade. Tbh I don't really mind the very heavy handed borrowing as the most important thing is the end result and the first Matrix is pretty much a flawless film.
Maybe that's the twist.
Would explain why he's so damn good at killingMaybe that's the twist.
Nah, V For Vendetta was a decent film. Not amazing, but definitely enjoyable.
Good film I thought but you can always find stuff it's borrowed or adapted from and stuff that was borrowed from etc. Even first seeing it and having no idea of the source material I got massive 1984 vibes.
Same with the matrix really. I get the invisibles links but it clearly hasn't just copied it and it's clearly not the only material that it's borrowed ideas from. It's just how writing works when there's so much material already there.
Cant help but be really excited for this after watching the trailer 10 times. Yes the sequels weren't as good but I adore the first one. And the music in the trailer for the new film, tremendous.
Deffo - first one is a work of art. I watched it again recently for the first time in donkeys and it’s aged so well, and is still so pertinent given we’re living in a faux Matrix.
I think there’s truth to what you’re both saying. It’s a decent movie (great cast!) but the comic book is so much better, and the changes they made in putting the film together really watered it down.
