I think the Wachowski's mistakenly believed that people loved the first Matrix for the action, where I believe most loved it for the DesCartian philosophy.

I couldn't disagree more
First off, the "asian guy" (his name is seraph) had to fight Neo to make sure he was The One. If some imposter came to talk to the oracle, they could kill her, or copy her (agent smith), or something like that. Seraph had to make sure he couldn't kill the person he was going to fight. If he couldn't, it was The One.
And the movie is "Revolutions," not "Revisited." Most people hated the two sequels (at least that I've talked to) because it had too much philosophy and NOT ENOUGH action and bullet time and fighting.
