10k Posts Film Club: The Matrix Resurrections ft. Sophie (part 2) (Patreon)

Hussein and Sophie jack into the Matrix once again to complete the watch of the latest Matrix movie. Now that Neo is once again "out", we find out what happened to Zion after the humans-machines war, how the new Matrix is powered through tons and tons of posts, and the great heist to reunite Neo with Trinity by sending Chad to the virtual divorce court. In the second half, we talk about how Lana Wachowski thinks about revolution and radical optimism being co-opted, and the ways in which that can and should be resisted, leading to a conclusion which, while at first might seem cynical, provides practical insights into how power can be exacted to literally rebuild society with rainbows, blue hair and pronouns.
