The first one was just lightning in a bottle. No shade. It's rare for any filmmaker to have a movie which altered filmmaking to such a degree much less be able to do it throughout a trilogy.

But I don't see anything in their filmography which suggests this new movie will be great. Granted, if they've been working on the script for years, that might help. (Lana and Lilly worked on the first Matrix for eight years before filming.)

Then again, I thought the first one would be trash judging from the trailer, so...
