It is not great by virtue of the fact that it is not the instant classic of the original film.  But it is a sequel that does justice to the first movie better than the other sequels. 

Don’t think you speak for all fans of anything. What a silly take. This is some entitled petty fanboy shit and is frankly insulting.

That’s the point...

If Reloaded and Revolutions are Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith this movie is Force Awakens.

It would be cool as a second Animatrix.

the end credit scene is so unremarkable that even though just I saw it yesterday I completely forgot it. I had to rewatch the end credit scene just now to remember what it was.

It was better than I expected. It won’t blow you away, but just take it for what it is and you can enjoy it.

It’s all right. Good, but doesn’t have the spark of a great movie.

Is this movie good or is this another 2016 Ghostbusters where people really want it to be good

I would watch the Matrix with cats. And an occasional random puppy, that means there was a glitch in the Catrix.

I mean, I have literally no interest in watching Prodigy myself, but I’m glad it exists and I hope it does well. I dig the idea of Trek for a younger audience.

A well made kids cartoon can appeal to all ages. It remains to be seen if Prodigy will achieve that as we've only had 5 episodes

What I liked about Resurrections was that, unlike a lot of belated sequels, it didn’t undo the victories of the older movies. There has been peace between humans and machines for decades, and some of the machines are part of the humans’ culture. The villain is a new kind of enemy, not the old one in disguise. Even…

He’s going to start inventing because he’s an inventor and inventing is what inventors do. You would understand if you were an inventor too.

Deadline’s Pete Hammond even questions how many AMPAS voters made it through both films, hinting at the inherent fallibility of human-driven awards ceremonies, but surely you should make an honest effort to see these movies if you’re deciding whether or not they deserve an award.

(SPOILER ALERT FOR 70-year-old book)
Maybe they think that him turning out to be the murderer makes it okay, like how Joe Carnahan thought that casting Mel Gibson as the bad guy gave him a pass.

I mean, just look at the original Star Trek.

reminds me of a quote about how people have no issues with green or grey and of course, white, but will have complete meltdowns over the inclusion of black people in their fantasy story.

“Even when its fake, we want it white.”
