OK, so, let's say that next year, the Watchowskis, jealous that Lucas managed to go 20 years before destroying his legacy while they done it in 4, decide that in order to sell more Matrix boxsets, they will change the title of the first matrix film to The Matrix Episode 1: A Neo Hope. However, they also decide that in order to not piss the fans off too much, this title will only appear in the movie intro itself, and not on the actual packaging. Are you seriously telling me that you would adopt that title, or would you still refer to the film as 'The Matrix'? Be honest now.
