Many regard  The MATRIX is the best movie in the series and the 2nd one is also pretty good. Although the 3rd movie might just be considered to be some as merely bonus material, it still provided a conclusion, but sort of convoluted. 

https://fandomwire.com/the-matrix-heres-why-matrix-reloaded-revolutions-were-better-than-the-first-movie Of course some people like the sequels more than the first movie.

Especially with imposed lockdowns, so many people just couldn't always get to a store. Even if they could get to a store, many shelves were empty.

AI and robotics continues to be part of the human world. All kinds of robots can be useful tools, but there is always a potential for something to go wrong. Some A.I. might eventually just want to go off on their own.
