I'll go first. Mine is that I can't stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It's like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds

I liked Matrix Revolutions from the beginning.

I'll do you one better: I loved Matrix Resurrection. Great satire and the real sequel to the first one

Its amazing how many people think that the movie is a genuine attempt at a sequel.

[–] nurple@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

It’s a brilliant ironic send-up of the need for a sequel for the first 30 minutes … and then it descends into unironically just continuing the story of Reloaded & Revolutions, but with bad action scenes this time.

it's a genuine atttempt to kill the franchise (in a good way)

If you take the middle 15 minutes (return home to rave) scene out of the second matrix movie, I'm convinced it makes the entire trilogy 10x better.
