What a damn shame. To the vast majority of the world's viewers, it was simply an incredible movie. No need for social justice warrioring when people want to be entertained...

You do realize the creators are trans? I heard they initially pitched casting to have gender swap between virtual world and reality. Interesting considering the metaverse now and avatars and identity. Your just a small mind. Remember film is art and you have to work around the artist too.

This comment is a little ambiguous. Is the shame, in this case:

a) that there was an allegory in the matrix that people don't know about

or

b) that there was an allegory in the matrix?
