Why did Wuxia die? Crouching Tiger, Flying Daggers, Hero, and The Matrix were all very well received.

Hero isn't really wuxia and the matrix absolutely isn't wuxia. There are still quite a few wuxia/xianxia being made but they tend to appeal mostly to women in china and that's part of it. Sword snow stride, three kingdoms, smiling proud wandering swordsman (which gets a new interpretation every other year), the grandmaster of demonic cultivation, and so on. There are also like a thousand slop wuxias every year in china, none of which even remotely worth watching.
