I saw it! No idea what it could possibly mean.
It’d be equally funny and absurd if this version of the matrix had the original film exist within its universe, as there were some people who genuinely started believing we are living in a simulated reality after watching The Matrix.

I didn't have high hopes but that was a great trailer. The film will probably be gooseberry fool, but I am interested in at least pirating it now.

I'd want to go somewhere with more than one vowel.

After watching the trailer a few more times my working theory, using the rampant speculative spirit of my dumb thirteen year old self, is that:
Neo and Trinity have become computer programmes inhabiting two random people in the new version of the matrix that was rebooted at the end of the third film, which we see as Neo having a different appearance in the looking glass scene. Morpheus is also a computer programme but he maybe acts more similarly to an agent?
The events of the 1999 film specifically exists as a work of fiction within this world, used as a trick by the machines to further suppress the desire of its inhabitants to leave. This results in Neo and Trinity having to... uh, recreate some of those events? I'm less confident in this bit.

I'm really glad it doesn't have the look of the original films really, I think it's a lot more dated than we might remember.

Recently re-watched the first two as they're on Netflix (re-watching the 3rd one soon) so great timing for the trailer to come out and pretty excited by it having seen it! But I'll try to go in with low expectations.

I saw that but wasn't sure if it was a frame from the original or not.
That clip shows them firing a rocket of some kind through that projector screen, in the dark, and it looks like it then strikes in a moving train in bright daylight. Guessing there's some kind of portal for behind the screen? Interesting to see that movement between world states seems to happen via doors and mirrors here, rather than by hard wired phone lines. Guess they'd be a hard sell to a modern audience.

Not long after it first came out, people wearing the whole matrix getup (trenchcoat/sunglasses/moody expression etc) became a regular sight in Exeter City Centre, it looked really odd.

Right, now we need Jenuall to provide evidence.

It was also around that time, when once at the cathedral & quay multi storey carpark, i was in the car with my brother, and i spotted a guy with his shirt off practicing with nunchucks on one of the lower levels.
Really, really weird.

I've watched The Matrix Resurrection trailer a few more times this morning and I'm now fully hyped. Might go see it for my birthday.
Blue hair lady is so cool.

There bit where Trinity Shouts looks rubbish (@2.06). I hope this is just not finished effect, but then wonder why include it.
I hope it's not too reliant on CGI. I appreciate the irony but even with the originals visuals it still felt grounded in practical effects, rather than everything being CGI.
Bit worried this will be John Wick 4

So glad that lockdown has lifted so I can get back down the pub for just another average night out with my Exeter crew

I also couldn’t stop thinking John Wick 4 when watching it
