I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

That second trailer isn't very good, but I get the impression that it is very misleading. I don't think the main villain is actually going to be Jonathan Groff doing a Hugo Weaving impression. The locations we see him doing that in are way too similar to the locations where Agent Smith did similar things in the first movies, plus Groff wasn't doing that voice in the first trailer. I bet he's a good guy and he's doing that to help Neo remember who he is. "I still know Kung Fu". He's not showing off, he's remembering

He was the main guy in Mindhunter so, very far from CW.

I was wondering the same and baffled. A movie made in 1999 (i.e., the original) almost looks more technologically advanced than this one if the trailers are anything to go by...
