Perhaps the protagonist in Vanilla_Sky after he has been thawed out and revived from his digital dream, can listen to more of his music play list. What will he see and do in the waking world that he has returned to? Tomorrow never knows what new experiences await.

“Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect.” ― Chief Seattle https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/7362241-humankind-has-not-woven-the-web-of-life-we-are

"This we know the earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself."  --Chief Seattle https://www.awakin.org/v2/read/view.php?tid=345

Matrix 5 Still In Development – But Why?

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIrSIUICG_E 

Of course the first MATRIX movie will always be the best in the series. However, the 4th movie had a chance to really get into the simulation hypothesis and the nature of reality. Perhaps the 5th movie will be able to touch upon that somewhat better.

Apartments with less than 400 sq. ft. (WTH?)

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejPOLhfBpy8 This is like a hotel room, a college dorm or a damn hamster cage!

While this might be OK for a single person, there should still be extra space for a separate bedroom. A kitchen-dining area as well as a proper living room. Thus, anything under 600 sq. ft. just isn't a proper 1 bedroom apartment. 2 and 3 bedroom apartments are essential for families. 4 and 5 bedroom apartments for larger families, but that gets more costly in several ways.

As AI gradually removes more jobs from people, some control-freaks might resort to implementing draconian social control measures over the disgruntled masses.

Three decades before the 1st MATRIX movie and the 13th Floor, the Moody Blues had a song about the nature of reality and the world control $Y$TEM. A time not that long after when the Jefferson_Airplane was playing at a place called The_Matrix_(club).

Ric Ocasek of The CARS

If Ric_Ocasek was still alive in 2025, he would be 81.

https://www.celebheights.com/s/Ric-Ocasek-53151.html 

https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/news/community_feed/tallest_rock_musiciansbig_guys.html 

https://www.celebheights.com/tags/240.html Most accounts of him considered him to be the height of 6'4". 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panorama_(The_Cars_song) - 1980 The video is interesting, but campy. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panorama_(The_Cars_song)#Music_video , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0anMOaCH1o The video is hardly Cyberpunk, yet seeing the tall and thin Ric Ocasek reminded me of how this could have been a little more like a pre-cyberpunk or pre-matrix type of video. 

Someone of similar size and shape to Ric Ocasek in the 1980s was, William+Gibson, who was gradually working towards his cyberspace stories in the matrix.

https://www.filfre.net/2016/11/the-prophet-of-cyberspace WG might have only been 1 or 2 inches taller than RO.

Its too bad that they didn't get to work on some kind of a project together.
