At the risk of being mauled by groupthink here I’ll just say that Revolutions had 10 hours of philosophy packed into a 2 hour box. The ending felt flat. I recently reached the whole series and I agree that the first movie aged well while the middle 2 were a letdown.
IMO if you want to make an arthouse movie don’t try to taco it onto an action blockbuster.
Glad they are happy with their genders. Doesn’t really belong in the criticism of their movies.
Speed Racer is one of those where you get out what you put in. It’s not for everyone.
Matrix 1 was awesome, but the other ones weren’t as good. I don’t think Groupthink is gonna get you, because the general consensus here seems to be “movies? Take’em or leave’em”.
I think most will agree with some dude tbh. Funnily enough I haven’t seen Speed Racer so can’t comment on that, but much of the rest of what they’ve directed after the original Matrix movie has been disappointing.
The only memorable bits of 2 and 3 are the action scenes (highway chase and Neo clones vs Smith clones) and for Resurrections, not even that. Recasting both Morpheus and Smith made it even worse. Cloud Atlas… Idk, I’m sure someone liked it, I was close to falling asleep.
I will have to give Sense8 a shot one of these days, premise sounds interesting so maybe it’ll redeem them in my eyes. Cautiously optimistic on that one, reviews seem to be good.
I had made a remark about how people were harsh with the Wachowskis because of their gender, and your next words were that they were frauds who make trash movies.
I took that as an explanation and justification for WHY people were being terrible, so my response was meant as a general response. Not saying you were criticising them for being trans.
Then at least attack the quality of the movie, not the gender of the directors.

For what it’s worth, I agree with you.

Yes? That’s what I’m doing.
And what movie are you addressing? Because you only said the Wachowski’s are frauds. That’s not a movie critique and you’re hardly Roger Ebert.
The Matrix is good. Everything else they made is terrible, and yes that includes Speed Racer.
You have obviously not watched Sense8.

Literal blasphemy.
Ah, I think I see the confusion.

Except Speed Racer was the greatest film ever made so they’re just wrong on every level.
