How breathtaking do you think Matrix Resurrections will be?
-
9:22 "Can we just not have metaverse be invented by facebook" loved that
-
Every time Keanu "hee hee hee's" you know he's speaking the truth.
-
I'm just watching Carrie...she's just sitting there, quietly observing and listening...with an occasional response. Love how grounded she seems...and humble. Not trying get the first word out. And Keanu's laugh...no words!
-
I love that Keanu understands the absurdity of "digital scarcity" because it's not possible. Anything digital can be copied in its entirety with zero effort.
-
"can we just not have metaverse invented by Facebook?" Love this man.
-
Watching Keanu laughing in mockery of NFT's made my day.
-
Carrie-Anne Moss IMMEDIATELY spots the big flaw in all this when she raises concerns about the lack of any actual element of "performance" in all this digital stuff.
-
She said “I guess what I love about making movies is being all together and that human part of it is what I love” this is exactly what it means to appreciate the little things. And it’s so hard to in the moment as they are happening
-
It's so funny how Keanu always turns towards Carrie-Anne for reassurance and also to continue the conversation with her, it's really sweet actually.
-
10:51 love how Keanu just laughs at the absurdity of NFTs
-
The guy: “So when you think of digital scarcity and things that can’t be copied…” Keanu: “but can be easily reproduced” By far the best line. The Metaverse is a fad and humanity’s last grasp at trying to avoid facing reality
-
I loved this interview because it was more 'real' than I've ever seen Reeves & Moss. I smiled through the whole thing - deep, laid-back, human - and enjoyable!
-
"Warner Bros be like : Where's the ball ? You dropped it 15 years ago.." what a legend and it's facts, after playing the demo yesterday I want a full matrix game with the tech !!
-
I like the fact that Keanu is not bored at all doing this press junkets interview. Like he’s actually pouring his thought seriously to the topic. Lost in thoughts.
-
These two have some natural real chemistry. I can see how they can both be at least extremely good friends.
-
I like how comfortable Keanu feels answering the questions and how he makes eye contact with Carrie, she respects him and they have a genuine friendship... his personality is welcoming and kind.
-
Gotta respect Carrie-Anne Moss's viewpoint in this interview, hold on to real life and the sacredness of human interaction.
-
The last bit was epic, even the interviewer looked like "this might be getting out of control".
-
I can't get over how amazing these two are on screen they are just so perfect
