The Matrix Resurrections: A Subversive Sequel or a Typical Follow-up?

The speakers discuss their thoughts on 'The Matrix Resurrections' and debate whether it is a subversive and deconstructed sequel or if it follows the typical beats of a typical sequel. They compare it to 'Gremlins 2' and analyze the shift in power dynamics and portrayal of the characters. The chapter also delves into the intention and mindset of the writer/director, as well as the subversive filmmaking style of the Wachowskis.
