will this get the SJW treatment like Dark Fate, Ghostbusters, etc...?
I am wondering if Neo will be sidelined so a transminorityliberalwokefemale can be the hero?

shareJust watch Sense8 and you’ll get a preview.
shareI don't get it.
Women were kicking ass from the very first five minutes of the original Matrix. A black guy was the wise sage in the first film. White corporate-types were the villains in the first film. Why now all of a sudden are we against women and minorities kicking white ass when nobody had a single problem with it in 1999?
I highly doubt Neo will get a sex change.

" if the first Matrix was made today"
yada yada whine bitch moan whine make shit up...
meanwhile
if the ORIGINAL matrix came out today , you'd be losing your shit saying :
"whos this fucking short haired lesbian looking woman in a major role?? , she hasnt even got decent tits i can ogle at ,
its PC AGENDA!
And there was that old black woman being the reader OLD and BLACK! fucking pc bulshit!!!
and to cap it all off the leader of the resistance is a fucking black man.
WOKE WOKE WOKE WOKE WOKE !!!"
note in 1999 nobody said that becasue the internet wasnt filled with toxic white males who hate women becasue they cant get laid.

touche!
there was a bit of speculation there on my part
This is a nice observation. I'd also add that those same white males in 1999 weren't complaining because most movies already featured a white male protagonist. Here are the top ten grossing films from that year:
1 Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace
2 The Sixth Sense
3 Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me
4 Toy Story 2
5 The Matrix
6 Tarzan
7 Big Daddy
8 The Mummy
9 Runaway Bride
10 The Blair Witch Project
How many of those movies had a white male lead? Right. All of them except for "Blair Witch". What they're whingeing about today as reverse discrimination is really the fact that they're no longer being catered to.

well . I'm sure theres some , but this site isnt flooded with posts about complaining that about:
sexism (towards women )
racism (toward minorities)
both of which are genuine issues.
The site is however flooded with posts from whiny male whites who seem to think theyve been slighted in some way.
Absolute moron alert - woke is not 'having a female lead' fuckface.
The original Matrix is proof that wokeness wasn't even needed in the first place, as you even fucking cited.
All the characters made sense and their physical attributes did not define who they were.
Today there is a very high chance that Neo wasn't really 'the one' and instead it was 'someone else' ... I'll let you fill in the rest.
Keep drinking the koolaid, clown.
Fandoms have become regressive in the past ten years.
shareWoke is not the same thing as simply having a female or minority protagonist.
It is one thing if a good character happens to be female or a minority, and another when that is their main attribute and it has to be pointed out and "celebrated" every other scene.
There is a reason why Sarah Connor and Ripley are loved character..they're simple strong characters that are female, without the need to put down others to elevate themselves.
Look at the difference between Alita and Captain Marvel..The first is relatable and someone you cheer for.
The second is woke, i.e belittling men, and has cringe moments like beating up white men to No Doubts "I'm just a girl".
The Matrix did this right, it wasn't woke.
Indeed. If the point of the story is about character, theme, plot, and all those other good things, it works. If the point of the story is to have a diverse protagonist, it's being built wrong.
The analogy wouldn't be "What if Neo was black in The Matrix?" because that wouldn't change the story. The analogy would be, "What if somebody sat down to write a movie and they thought, 'I want my main character to wear a black leather trenchcoat and shades.' Would that person wind up writing a movie as good as the Matrix? No, because the *point* isn't the trenchcoat. The *point* is the nature of reality, rising to potential, and achieving spiritual enlightenment and liberation from totalitarian corruption - and on and on into the depths of The Matrix's themes. Or maybe the point is "sci-fi action movie where people live in virtual reality as slaves of machines." That's surface-level, but it still gives a story. "The main character is black," is not a story.
Nobody is suddenly against that 🙄😒
You clearly don’t understand what “woke” means.
You are right, the movies were already anti-White even back then and still no White people ever complained about it which shows you how tolerant we are. All up until the left kicked the anti Whiteness and feminism into higher gear around 2016 or so when it backfired. There is only so much BS White men are willing to take.
shareAfter the awful sequels, who cares?
shareI'm sure the transgender filmmakers, queens of liberal Hollywood, will be very gentle with the franchise they already turned into a dumpster fire. We fans need to be spanked. Loving that white Jesus like we do. They hate what they created.
shareLmao, the original trilogy is a metaphor for being trans, the writers have said that. So it's not like it would be out of place. You act like the original trilogy was blisteringly conservative.
sharethe story was about a counterculture nerd fighting the establishment and police, with a black man and a "lesbian looking" kick ass female.
and bubba is crying that they will only now start to put "SJW" stuff in it. Jesus conservatives are clueless/so fragile
Trinity to this day is one of my favorite ass kicking characters. Morpheus is still one my favorite overall characters.
Trinity is a woman and Morpheus is a black man.
I never thought about it then and I surely don't care about it now.
Great characters are great characters. Why should gender and race be an issue?
Is a issue when producers and directors make it an issue, everybody feel the same way than you and what you just say is prove people only want good storytelling, if the actor is black or woman or wathever is really unimportant, but some people are obssesed in trying to convinced us with all are a bunch of biggots and make their movies all about race and gender, like the ridiculous cast of Jodie Turner-Smith in the show about Anne Boleyn or the gender swap on Terminator Dark Fate that is not good storytelling they just swap the gender shit in John Connor and believe that is equal to groundbreaking storytelling
NEITHER OF THOSE EXAMPLES RINGS TRUE...THE ANNE BOLEYN THING WAS AN ALTERNATIVE SPIN AND DARK FATE WAS A SOLID FLICK FOR PEOPLE NOT CAUGHT ON JOHN CONNOR'S NUTSACK OR LOOKING FOR ATTENTION BY SCREAMING WOKE AT SHIT.
shareOMG is you again, you are so full of it men, Anne Boleyn was an stupid idea that is the reason why it fail, Dark fate is not a solid flick is just a boring copy of everything was done in the other movies of the saga just change Connor for this chick like that for its own would save an awful movie
Say what you want about McG but at least the guy go in a diferent direction and try to bring something new to the saga i have way more respect for Terminator Salvation than for Dark Fate, Genysis and Rebelion those movies dint know how to evolve beyond of the formula create by Cameron Machine came for the future to hunt down Mom of future savior/future savior at the same time the resistance send someone to protect her and they are in the run
FOR PEOPLE NOT CAUGHT ON JOHN CONNOR'S NUTSACK
Dark fate sucks, Ghostbusters sucks, every movie with gender/race swap usually sucks ass and im spanic i just want good movies female and black protagonist are old as dirt and people are ok with them stop acting like they are some kind of recient invention and people who cant stand this gender/race swap bullshit are biggots instead of regular people who dislike bad movies
I DONT CARE WHAT COLOR YOU ARE...YOU ARE AN IDIOT NO MATTER YOUR SHADE...THESE "PEOPLE" YOU SPEAK OF THAT ARE ANGRY AND CAN'T STAND,ETC...THOSE "PEOPLE" ARE ASSHOLES WITH THEIR MINDS TOO HARD WIRED TO THE PAST OR THEIR OWN DAFT VISIONS...YOU SHOULD NOT BE PROUD TO INCLUDE YOUSELF AMONGST THE THESE OBSOLETE THINKING DINOSAURS.
LOL so everybody who dislike dark fate is a dinosaur and an idiot? is not possbile they have legit reasons, artistic reasons, to dislike those movies? a lot of my favorite action movies have female and black leads but the diferent between Alien, Ghost in the shell, Underworld, Men in black, Matrix, Blade 2, with let say Doom: Annihilation, Dark fate, Ocean's 8, Ghostbusters is they are an honest story about a kick ass character
You shoulnd't dismiss peoples opinions so fast and just label them as biggots just because disagree with you. The problem a lot of people have with this new PC trend in movies is not the colour or gender of the leads characters perse but producers, writters and directors using the actual political enviroment as a an strategy to atract people to theaters without creativity just making everything about politics with Ghostbusters the director acused of biggots and mysogynistic white supremacist to everybody who dislike the trailer of the movie. The guy din't even listen to the critics, same thing did the director of Dark Fate and the actress of Doom: Annihilation and many others
And a lot of people dont see that this is just an easy strategy to sell tickets without make a real artistic effort and that is why must of those movies sucks because they lack creativity they are most of the same thing that have done before just the gender of the leads was change
And i understand they are also a lot of people who are real asshole and racist i have find a lot here and they dont even deserve a response because are people who are not going to change and cant see their own racism but say the majority of people who dilike the actual PC culture in movies are like those asshole is also very ignorant a lot of people have real artistic arguments about why those movies dont work
PASS.
shareSpeak as a true faggot incapable of respect anyones opinions and love to label as biggot and intolerant everyone who challenge his world view but are not able to see you are also a biggot and intolerant person
I just hope your wife's boyfriend is not watching right now or he would be very dissapointed of you
"Speak as a true faggot"
SERIOUSLY?...WOW,YOU ARE A COMPLETE WASTE OF SKIN.
IF MY WIFE'S BOYFRIEND IS WATCHING..I SAY TO HIM...ELOPE WITH THIS BITCH,BRO...I WILL EVEN THROW YOU A FEW BUCKS.

OMG! What is happening to you? you normally are not this aggressive ¿perhaps your feminizing hormone therapy is not suiting you well?
I have hear that blocking testosterone when you are old as sand can produce this type of change of humor is like a woman having her period but for fags
IF MY WIFE'S BOYFRIEND IS WATCHING..I SAY TO HIM...ELOPE WITH THIS BITCH,BRO...I WILL EVEN THROW YOU A FEW BUCKS.
ONLY CHILDREN THINK WORDS LIKE "FAGGOT" AND "FAGS" ARE FUNNY OR CUTTING.
shareThat is not true adults also think that
BTW is not you who's bullyng some guy because his nick is Dorian Gay some coments below?
If you are so progressive you shoulnd't been making fun of people sexual preferences just because they dont agreed with you
YES...BECAUSE THATIS HIS NAME...AND HIS COMMENTS MAKE IT VERY CLEAR HE ISN'T GAY OR IN ANY WAY ACCEPTING OF THOSE WHO ARE.
shareHe doesn't acept homos? that is a very strong acusation i personally have nothing against our fellows fairies they are actually very clean people and know how to organized a party i have a friend who is black and fag wich prove i cant be racist or homophobic or i woulnd't be able of tolerate his precense but im just fine when the dude is around
Skinny little fellow he is, but also is very useful i even allow him once to help me to chose some shirt to go in a blind date, the blind date itself was a fiasco because the chick was fat i cant stand fat women so in the moment i saw her i just left, women's should be thick but not fat, but anyway i digress the point of the story is that the shirt was pretty cool so is cool have gay friends they can be very useful if you need an opinion about clothes and other afeminate stuff like that, they have like a sixth sense for that kind of things
🙄WOW.
share😄👍
shareTHE ANNE BOLEYN THING WAS AN ALTERNATIVE SPIN
EXACTLY WHAT I SAID...AN ALTERNATIVE SPIN.
shareYou cannot read or don't want to.
It was not an alternative spin. It was the exact same story of her life upto her death.
You are a hyocrite of the highest order and everyone on this site knows it.
SAME STORY WITH ALTERNATIVE CASTING...LIKE IF I PLAYED CINDERELLA....AN ALTERNATIVE SPIN...THE CASTING ISDIFFERENT THAN USUAL MAKING IT ALTERNATIVE.
I READ AND WRITE JUST FINE...I JUST WONT SWALLOW YOU THICK LOAD OF OUTDATED VALUES AND NEED TO CATAGORIZE PEOPLE BY THEIR COLOR AND CREED.
Cinderella is fictional not even remotely the same example.
Anne Bolynn was a real historical figure and is the very reason we have the 'Church of England'. She is extremely important to English history and race swapping her does her an injustice.
No alternative. Same story but changed a real white woman to black. Again not an alternate story.
If you agree with the race swapping of a real historical person then you cannot ever complain about whitewashing any characters ever again as you will be a hypocrite.
The next MLK movie I want done by Brad Pitt then. In your words it will alternate.
And no you cannot read because you keep repeating the same things which everytime are false.
LIKE THE MOVIE WHERE BOB DYLAN IS PLAYED BY MULTIPLE PEOPLE INCLUDING CATE BLANCHETT...YOU RACIALLY OBSESSED PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK YOU CAN CONVINCE THE REST OF US THAT YOU ARE RIGHT...THAT A PERSON'S COLOR OR SEX HAS A DAMNED THING TO DO WITH THE ART OF MAKE BELIEVE...YOU EITHER THINK LIKE A MONSTER OR YOU DON'T...I DON'T.
shareLIKE THE MOVIE WHERE BOB DYLAN IS PLAYED BY MULTIPLE PEOPLE INCLUDING CATE BLANCHETT.
YOU EITHER THINK LIKE A MONSTER OR YOU DON'T...I DON'T.
A LOT OF WORDS TO SAY..."WHITE IS BEST...THE REST IS THE ENEMY".
shareWhat? that is not what i wrote at all, Jesus christ It's only three paragraphs of text, how can you misread that?
If gender or race swapping is well done people usually dont care, people are getting upset because have become something force and political
There you go as simple as possible let see how you misread this now
I CAN READ THE WORDS YOU TYPE JUST FINE...OF COURSE MOST OF THOSE WORDS ARE DESIGNED TO CIRCLE HOW YOU ACTUALLY FEEL WHILE STAYING FIRMLY OUT OF BIGOT TERRITORY.
shareLOL men you just sound pathological you sound like a fanatic too blind to see nothing beyond his own conviction and acting like the rest of the world are just infidels who shouldn't have the right to speak
I bet you are one of those persons who acused black people of being white supremacist if they dont support critical race theory
I tought you were just a regular troll but now i see you are a legit moron
HOW YOU ACTUALLY FEEL WHILE STAYING FIRMLY OUT OF BIGOT TERRITORY
I DISAGREE WITH CRITICAL RACE THEORY..
YOU USE A LOT OF WORDS TO DANCE BUT ULTIMATELY YOU SPELL IT OUT FOR THE REST OF US.
Yeah i know, is hard write everything in a language that is not your own and over here is very late almost 3 AM
But i know you understnad everything i wrote, so dont preend you dont, besides my english is not that bad
I DISAGREE WITH CRITICAL RACE THEORY..
WANT TO KNOW A SECRET?🤐
I VOTED FOR DONALD TRUMP...TWICE.
Fuck me, that surprised me, You dont sound republican men
You were one of those inbreed dudes who asaulted the congress? i definitly can imagine you walking in the congress without shirt, an indian war bonnet and a spear hunting people down
Do you believe Trump is QAnon?
You have a dark side men i almost can feel it trought the monitor of my computer
THOSE ASSHATS INVADING CONGRESS SHOULD ALL BE WHACKED ON THE PEEPEE.
QANON IS COMPLETE GARBAGE.
I DO HAVEA DARK SIDE...IT HAS BEEN RETIRED THOUGH.
you mean will conservatives cry that this isnt about a white male straight lead who is super OP saves a damsel in distress. probably anything that veers to far threatens their fragility soo
shareHasn’t history always been straight white men saving women and minorities? Not really surprised that movies reflect this.
