The movies are really among the best made (at least at the time made), V for Vendetta was on a similar page. The two segments of animatrix that detail how the robots won is great. I would argue that the movies are better today now that many aren't as dazzled by the effects (they were still using harnesses and minimal CGI).
The concept was stolen from a book though (without attribution). I believe the film resonated with awake/asleep people so well that their punishment was to become trans.
Don't bother with the 4th, there's nothing it brings to the table.

Their punishment? How do you force that decision? Don't want to end up like Robin Williams then you better get the snip?!
Effectively, yes. I don't have real evidence of that, beyond they went trans after the trilogy but before the new one.
That would be the type of threat though, or, "if you ever want to make another movie then..."
