Default Matrix 4 & 5 Coming? Keanu Reeves Says Yes!

I know there is kind of a thread for this, but I think this is pretty big news.

http://www.worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=20424

AICN received a scoop from an event that took place at the London International School of Performing Arts, where Keanu Reeves spoke to the class about his career while promoting his new movie "Henry's Crime." He spoke briefly about "47 Ronin" and "Bill and Ted 3," but the big news came when Reeves revealed that he met with the Wachowskis around Christmas. They told him that they completed script treatments for two more "Matrix" installments. They are planning to make the films in 3D and have already met with James Cameron to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the technology. Reeves added that he's excited to return as Neo and promised that the treatments will truly revolutionize the action genre like the first "Matrix" film did.

Really hope the Wachowskis put the same amount of thought/tech they did into the first installment. The last two had a lot to be desired, and I hope this isn't just another example of Hollywood bringing back another franchise from the dead. However, 3D technology could add a lot to the Matrix world. Kind of split on this one...

Interesting, since, they technically ended the 'war', or the story, after the last one. I guess you could open that up more though... have always been a fan of the Matrix storyline and the expansive world behind it.

I think a prequel to the Matrix would be awesome. But, that's just me.

Cue cheesy comic book style resurrection. He'll be back as cyber-neo with tons of crazy new powers.

They ended that movie off perfectly to make a TV series like stargate. I can't see how two more movies would work?

I was such a huge fan of the first Matrix movie and the story behind it that even the second and the third didn't seem that bad to me.

I think Family Guy said all that needs to be said about Keanu...

I would start the next moview off as the ending of the last movie being the reboot.......and it all starts over again. Really easy to find ways to get it rolling again.

I think somehow this movie should include John Connor and a bunch of Avatars. I mean, they did consult with James Cameron, right?

Installments 2 and 3 were pretty disappointing, not really expecting much more than a cash grab with 4 and 5.

I can't say I'm surprised to hear they're making more sequels, but I am kind of surprised to hear Reeves will be returning.

"The tip came apparently straight from Keanu Reeves as he made an appearance at the “London school of performing arts university,” which doesn’t exist"

I laughed pretty damn hard when I read this, at the notion a rumour could start on the internet and gain this much backing, for a school that is fictional.
