“Happy 1 year to Matrix Resurrections. It’s Lana’s movie through and through. General audiences weren’t ready but time will be kind to it,” @NeilNevins tweeted. “Happy one year anniversary to THE MATRIX RESURRECTIONS, an epic and deeply personal franchise conclusion that was tragically misunderstood upon its release,” @CountVolpe wrote. “It’s been an entire year since The Matrix Resurrections premiered in theaters I’m not crying you are,” @355Jess posted. “I still think that it’s a small cinematic miracle that we got MATRIX: RESURRECTIONS. Not the film that some fans wanted, but the one that the world needed!” @nickygra97 added.

What Did Laurence Fishburne Think ofย The Matrix Resurrections?

The newest entry into The Matrix franchise did not feature the returnย of Laurence Fishburne as Morpheus. There are many references made to his version of the character and Jada Pinkett Smith’s Niobe revealed what happened to him after the events ofย The Matrix Revolutions. The film also featured Yahya Abdul-Mateen II playing a new version of Morpheus that was created by Keanu Reeves’ Neo as a subconscious means to free himself from the Matrix once again. During an interview withย Variety, Fishburne reacted to the new movie.

“It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, and it wasn’t as good as I hoped it would be. But I thought Carrie-Anne and Keanu really did their thing. Yeah, that’s what I thought.” When asked in a follow-up if he felt like he missed out on it all by not being a part of the sequel, he added: “No, not really.” ย
