Wasted opportunity.. - Spoilers

Wasted opportunity....
Definately. A lot of people didn't like Reloaded (too wishy washy etc)but I liked it. Intriguing plot, not making much sense, Lots of good action and all that, but there's no doubting that the impact of the first movie had been diluted.
After seeing Revolutions today I can't believe that it has been ended in such a weak, thin and open ended way. This was a chance for the writers to really step up and finish things off in a big way. But it didn't happen, I fully expect to be reading about Matrix 4, 5 and 6 in a few years time.
I expected huge visuals and sound. I expected fast, furious and original action scenes. I expected a thickly woven and intriguing plot leading up to a mindblowing finale.
Well, the action scenes are fantastic, and the movie looks as big and detailed as one would expect, but what happens to the characters we met in Reloaded?(Merv, Seraph, Persephone, Architect etc). Nothing happens, why not??
It's never made quite clear what happens to the Oracle (you think she's been killed, then she's in the final scene, along with the Architect and Seraph)You can take your pick about Neo's fate too. Morpheus....he just stands there watching a happy ever after scene does he?...... pah!!!
Not good enough.
