I loved it.

It sure was entertaining, but wasn't really necessary.

Welcome back Mr. Anderson and that fight on the 3rd was great as well.

The reason I prefer mangas and animes over american productions is that once something is done is done.

Yeah, I'm on the side of thinking the 2nd film was good too. Even the 3rd, which I felt was the weakest, wasn't something I disliked. Smith was the boss. :)

But when you watched the first one (and at the time I remember hearing it was a singular movie, not part of sequels), didn't you got what would happen?

Neo woke up, he will free everyone from Matrix, the end. The other 2 movies weren't necessary even though they were fun to watch.

Them you are the one bullshitting.

Samurai X ended like 20 years ago and stay that way, Saint Seiya the same (there was plan for Zeus since the begining, but it is taking a lifetime) but this have spin-off, even Dragon Ball the manga finished.

You don't get reboots and the few that get unexpected sequels are ones that story is close to not existing.

If you don't know rurouni no kenshin (samurai X) then I could only assume you read/watch very little manga or anime.

You can count on a hand the number of reboots and milk sequels after the story is closed for manga (the anime stayed done for like 20 years, from GT - never covered in the manga - up to super, with some movies/ovas throw one time or another that are inconsequential).

About manga that never end, your other point, I don't remember any that was done like this without the story demanding it (or writer being partially lazy). There are like 4 or 5 I can remember that are like 40-50 year running (no reboot in between like would happen with Comics) and they are either not tied story.

The very long ones (20 years or so) that haven't finished but have a story, Berserker (writer put a chapter every 3 months or so nowadays), One Piece (weekly going and the story have been moving forward with we knowing more or less we expect it to finish since like 2 years into it), Hunter x Hunter (writer also entered major hiatus).

Yeah, there's different ways to look at it to be sure. At that point in time, in the real world, he was dead. If you wanted to look at it in a more clinical way, you could say that although Neo was dead, he wasn't brain dead, and therefore it's possible he still heard Trinity. He was also still connected to the Matrix. Trinity's words jolted him back into the world of the living, which also caused him to return to life within the Matrix. I hope I'm making sense. I had a rough sleep last night. But just tonally, that scene felt off to me when I first saw it. I think I rolled my eyes and muttered something. Ha. At the very least, what you said makes sense.

Never played Enter the Matrix, but I played the shit out of The Path of Neo. Great game that deserves a remastered version. Fun fact, the guy who does Neo's voice in that game played Keanu Reeves in sketches on MadTV for a few years.

Samurai X kinemaban is a material done to tell the same history on the movie, so it isn't neither sequel nor reboot.

Boruto is ridiculous, but yes it is a sequel.

Gundam is a series not one book so not sure why you are trying to fit it in here.

Captain Tsubasa get new series following the development (age) of the char, with each story being closed before.

Sure you can go on, and still that wouldn't be the norm of manga, it is with several of the stuff you put something that started happening couple of years ago.

The stories that have been going for 20 years haven't been finished and aren't being streched, so no sense in mixing them together.

Akira is even funnier because you are admiting it isn't really getting a sequel, the movie just told a part of the story and didn't continue.

When we get like almost every comic hero book rebooted every 5-10 years to tell the same story we can think about making things equivalent.
