However, there could be a fairly simple explanation there: Morpheus dies in the MMO game The Matrix Online. That specific event in the game is considered canon because the writer-directors, the Wachowskis, gave their approval to the game.

No worries, Fishburne. I doubt anyone in the general public will return for a Matrix 5 either.
You’re done today soldier, go home. Spot on!
They really are trying to milk everything out of that franchise and doing a terrible job at doing so.
My understanding is that’s deliberate. The Wacowskis were done with The Matrix, the original trilogy (+ Animatrix) was the complete package. But the powers that be demanded more to milk the franchise, and when the Wacowskis tried to push back, the higher-ups said they would do it with or without them. So the Wacowskis are deliberately sabotaging the sequels, and good on em.
I’m still not sure why this is in the games community.
I guess he canonically dies in a videogame, which is a reason they might not bring him back
Franchise?
Correct: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matrix_(franchise)
A media franchise, also known as a multimedia franchise, is a collection of related media in which several derivative works have been produced from an original creative work of fiction, such as a film, a work of literature, a television program, or a video game. Bob Iger, chief executive of the Walt Disney Company, defined the word franchise as “something that creates value across multiple businesses and across multiple territories over a long period of time.”[1]
Wow, thank you for the definition of the word franchise, I had no idea /s
> asks question as if they don’t know what it means
> gets a frank response with definition

I mean clearly he was either asking whether or not they were doing a new matrix franchise or pretending the sequels don’t exist which is a pretty notorious meme. I would not have interpreted that as “what does franchise mean?” The former options make way more sense in this context.
Either way you don’t need to be a dick about it
Ask stupid questions, get stupid answers.
It was a joke, because everything after the first movie might as well not exist. Apparently it wasn’t received.
Ignore him he’s just being needlessly rude.
I’m still definitely gonna watch it. It’ll be bad, but I’m gonna watch it.
Not like in the theater for money. After it’s floating out on the high seas.
But even if it’s bad it’s still a nostalgia trip back to something that was undeniably amazing.
I saw matrix 4 twice and liked it. Sue me. Fight me lol
That’s actually crazy to me. There must be some untold personal reason.
I assume it was because the story involved everyone around Trinity and Neo being different/recast.
Fishburne was very diplomatic when asked for his opinion on the finished Matrix 4: “it was better than I expected, but not as good as I had hoped”.
Hugo weaving, the actor for Smith, didn’t appear in the film due to alleged scheduling conflicts, but I suspect he took a look at the script and noped out of it.
It’s a shame, it could’ve been good.
No way Lana Wachowski didn’t fucking tank Matrix 4 on purpose. It’s even in the fucking dialog it couldn’t be more clear
