They're set to end, because the PM is facing a coup from his party to force him out and his allies are turning on him. Essentially he held regular parties at downing street during the previous lockdown, including the night before the Queen's Husband's funeral. Which had a restricted attendance. The right wing press which didn't care at the time, have suddenly decided this was a big deal.

He's on the verge of being booted out and they've crashed in the polls. This is a PR stunt to save his career, and get the hardline right wingers in his party back on board.

Average daily deaths are still in the upper 200s with the current restrictions. Keep in mind our population is about a 1/5 of the US.

It is coming to an end likely here in terms of how it's treated, but not because of the numbers.

They litterally tell you for the first 30 mins Lana Wachowski didn't want to make a sequel, that the original trilogy should be left alone and Warner Brothers are forcing them to make it.

The film imo (the ending) is a fuck you, you can't reboot the series without me, so here's your sequel from Wachowski.

That is the vibe I got from it.

I disagree on it being better than the flawed Star Wars sequel trilogy. The Star Wars sequel trilogy at least felt like Star Wars at a few points, even if it's clear they didn't have much of a plan.

I like Force Awakens kinda, think Last Jedi is a mixed bag and dislike Rise of Sky Walker alot. However I never got the impression the people involved didn't want to be involved.

I seen this in the afternoon.

I have mixed thoughts, but ultimately just thought meh. It does threaten at a few times to be interesting, but I did legitimately get the impression that the people involved did not want to make another Matrix film and they use a few meta scenes/lines to make the audience aware. I didn't leave the cinema thinking, "I really hope there's a Matrix 5".

Given the poor promotion/marketing campaign, I don't expect this to be as successful as it should/could've been.

tbh I'm surprised there's so much hype around this, given The Flash movie next year is basically a Micheal Keaton Batman film.

A return to Tim Burton's Batman (without Tim Burton) is of alot more interest to me than another Batman reboot.

Synder's Batman was okay, but I'm not interested in another reboot/dark and more realistic take.

Nolan films > Burton > and then a big gap.

Without spoilers, the Daniel Craig films are basically their own series. You would need to see the films from Casino Royal on to Spectre to follow the plot.

Maybe I was over excited after just seeing it, but it's much, much, better film than Spectre in every area.

That's all I'm going to say atm.
