I feel I'm the only one person who loved Matrix 4, it was literally made for me. I liked that it kept continuity with 2/3 while still telling those movies to **** off since they sucked. It's easily the best one since the original even if a bit of a requel.
The Matrix defined 00s movies, every movie is directly inspired by it with slow motion, black cool trench coats, etc. It took most of the decade before hollywood started aping other stuff.

Well we've been enjoying 00s nostalgia for a while now. This is why Tobey returning and x-men crew in select MCU movies were such big deals.
The 2000s was the beginning of the Superhero movies even if the cinematic universe that became popular in the 2010s hadn't exactly formed just yet.

The avatar sequels are sort of nostalgia of the 00s that's when it first came out, and felt new and every new movie was in 3D. Horny comedies are going to be hard to get people excited to actually remake when people can just goon easily on Tiktok.

2010s nostalgia is going to take a long time since only now are people realizing Marvel is slop, it'll take many more years before people are nostalgic. Have you had conversations with normies about marvel, they all speak of the pre End Game era as if it were some golden time and how much it sucks now. There's no way Disney can turn it around anymore.
