FUCK YES It’s just Halle Berry driving a puppy rampage around.
The air bud of killing
There wasn't much left to tell after the first movie. It just turned ridiculous. I still watch the movies but they aren't good. They just show choreageaphy and dancing and special effects.
I mostly like Keanu Reeves for being such a nice human being in real life.
I kind of agree. I will still watch them all though because they're fucking sick lol

I really liked the fantasy criminal underground they created for the movies. I hoped to see way more of it as an actual story, but no…it was only used in small doses to move the action forward.
The first movie introduced us to the whole idea and that was fun, but the rest IMO kinda gets to be a slog of violence after a while.
In case you missed it, they did do a TV show within the world that expanded on the origins of some of the characters in the movies. It was pretty good. Just as ridiculous but with different actors.
I too enjoyed the lore building in the movies and this was cool to see it from a different time period. B
I didn’t know that existed. Thank you!
E: dammit, $ to view it. Arrr!
Nice, hope you enjoy it. Sail safely my friend!
And once you start counting bad guys who move to within 5 feet of John Wick before trying to use their guns, the films kinda become comedies. But it’s still a fun ride.
Yeah I noticed that too. Silly fights but good for entertainment I guess.
And then for some reason Halle Berry is there, overacting and tossing around men twice her weight. Hard to keep dispelling belief.

They had a hell of a run, and while I'd like to see more, I'm really in it for the direction. If the director goes another route and starts a new franchise or keeps it going Ballerina and moved past Reeves, I'm ok with that. I think he's a rare artist that gives action movies what they've lost, and I'm here for it.
I wanna see a Dog Wick spin-off. John is the one that stays at home and the dog goes out to protect him
John Wick x Airbud
Air Wick
Sounds refreshing
I mean, there's no rule that says a dog can't join the guild of assassins.
No doing your business in the Continental, though.
The first movie was great and not too completely unbelievable. But every movie got a bit more outlandish. By the 4th, the bullet proof suits went full on fantasy land and Keanu got up like 7 different times from things that would have killed a person. 4 was a fun flick to watch, but it's time to let him rest.
If you want to see more, just rewatch them. After the first one, they're all pretty much the same movie anyways.

It's done. Let it be. We don't need more. Make something new.
Edit: unless of course John Wick 5 will be John retired to Wyoming where he works his ranch, and trains working dogs on the side.
Agree. Let it be done.
The only way he should return is if it's an "old man wick" Cameo. Just to fuck with the fans.
This is the John Wick I want to see. Have an assassin come to kill him, but he's so starstruck by Wick that he has to take the opportunity to socialize with him. John makes meals for his soon-to-be killer, lets the assassin help him work the land and tend to his animals.
Days turn to weeks turn to months. We learn that John Wick only keeps a snake gun around, no other armory; no opportunities to find out "could Wick still have held his own in the end."
The assassin helps fake John's death, then moves on with a new appreciating for patience and noticing the little things. The assassin then realizes how awful the association is that they work for. They become heartbroken and disillusioned. They move on, leaving the story open on whether they're gonna take down their own employers.
Then, if the audience and studio wants another action movie, they can decide from there, leaving Keanu out of it. At most, he can be a cameo for where assassins go to relax and learn from each other. Wick can be kept safe by the constant flow of assassins visiting and seeking expanded horizons.
"My Dinner with John"
See? That's something people would watch. Hollywood, take note.
I would pay money to watch this.
This is a great idea, but I don't want it to be a rehash of "you can't escape your past". No shots fired, no flashbacks, as little dialogue as possible.
How the heck does a snake use a gun though?
It's a Colt Python.
Just like Barry used to have

Knowing modern Hollywood, it will be him training a protege who will then go on to star in a spin off series.

Honestly I'm hoping they don't make more. I appreciate the ambiguous ending of the 4th movie letting audiences choose to believe what we were shown at face value or not. Having him come back would ruin that
John Wick 5 - John retired after the effects of John Wick 4 and presumed dead, is found, and when he's confronted by an old enemy, they kill his dog.
Hint to Keanu: Voice work doesn't require knees. There is talk of a Sonic 4....
"I am an FBI agent" was the pinnacle of this guy's career.
Old Man Wick.
No, man. The High Table must be destroyed before he quits or does. This is a must. One more, Baby.
Liam Neeson: hold my beer
Frenetic montage of Liam standing up
Man, the article should really say spoiler alert before jumping into the 2nd paragraph. There goes the final instalment for me…
