I'm curious to see how this will pan out. I think the Matrix trilogy is a good example of a movie franchise that probably should've ended after the first movie,

  I would stop after the second but then you would need a different ending.

    I heard the original idea was, a single prequel and a single sequel. Instead studio supposedly wanted to cash-in, so there was anime-prequel anthology, a short prologue film two sequels themselves and a companion game. And I do think there is an excellent ~2 hour movie hidden somewhere in some ginormous edit combining all of the matrix-sequels material, instead of what we got, that was still good and entertaining, but not living up to the hype :)

      The whole 2003 meme of making a 3-5 hour movie and splitting it into 2 parts was pretty much a horrible idea, and thankfully hasn't really caught on.

        It was much better, than a season of nothing on netflix which should be 3 hours max instead of 10-12.

  I actually like all three parts. Sequels are hard, and considering how a lot of new shows fail miserably in S2, I really think they were awesome. But it is just my view.

  But the ending is logical and complete (that zion gets eternally created and destroyed). There were a lot of unanswered questions at the end of first and second films (I feel terrible watching Neo and trinity die. but still..).

    You're right, I stand corrected.
