There is no doubt ROTK will gross more money at the box office. This is for the simple fact that it is PG-13, and holding an X-mas release. On the popularity and anticipation scale Rotk and matrix are the same . I would even have to go one step further and say the matrix is more popularity when you exclude the younger audience. Matrix has an R rating and it came very close to making just as much money as the two towers in the box office. It's always a great achievment when an R rated movie makes as much money and popularity as the matrix has. Even the fans of the matrix who were upset with reloaded still love the movie and will probably see Revolutions more than the dedicated fan. Rotk will make more money though. I think theyll both be just as popular. As long as revolutions lives up to reloaded.
