"People keep asking if I'm back, and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinking I'm back." With these words, Keanu Reeves launched not just a character, but an entire action franchise that would redefine the genre for a generation.

In this episode, we break down what makes John Wick such a revolutionary action film. From its crystal-clear fight choreography to its meticulously crafted criminal underworld, this movie created a new gold standard for action cinema that countless films have tried to replicate since. We explore how former stuntmen Chad Stahelski and David Leitch leveraged their practical experience to create fight scenes with unprecedented clarity and impact, letting audiences see every punch, shot, and grapple without the frantic editing that plagued so many action films before it.

If you love action movies with substance, join us for this deep dive into the film that announced to the world that not only was Keanu Reeves back - he was better than ever. And remember, whatever you do, don't kill a man's dog.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome to the we Recommend podcast, a
movie podcast, where every weekwe recommend a movie for you to
watch and then come back hereand listen to us discuss.
I'm Jesse, I'm Jason, I'mDakota.
People keep asking if I'm backand I haven't really had an
answer.
But now, yeah, I'm thinking I'mback because this week we

(00:20):
recommend John Wick.
Baby.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
Dude, he could have been.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Batman.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
He should have been Batman.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
He is a great Batman voice when he does that, it's
wild Cool.
So before we get into it, right, I don't think I've asked
anybody this question in thisroom.
What makes a great action movieto you?
And I'm doing weird.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Well, bullets, explosions, yeah it depends.

Speaker 4 (01:02):
I think it would depend on how you, because I
have different classificationsof what makes a good movie like
what I'm going into it.
I think John Wick to me is itsown classification now, because
of the stunts and Keanu doinghis own thing, I feel like it's
like Jackie Chan level of action.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:19):
Like you're going to have a lot of stunts in there
for like body yeah, body stuntsversus like action.
That's just like over the topeffects and explosions and just
leaning into that.
I love that.
That's like when you lean intowhat you are and knowing your
own genre.
Like 80s movies are so fuckingfun to watch action in 80s
movies.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
I think.
For me it varies on movie but Ithink if the movie has a clear
idea of what type of action itwants to do, if it wants to do
over the top, then let's do overthe top, but it has to stay in
that same realm, exactly.
Because, like John Wick, thinkabout the part where the car
towards the end.
The car falls kind of a far wayat the harbor and it doesn't

(02:02):
explode.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
What?

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Yeah, and it's great because the whole time the movie
has been realistic air quotesbecause, you know, I don't
fucking think people can justkeep doing this over and over.
But at least like in terms ofthe fighting and like the way
things aren't just explodingeverywhere.
It's like, ah, it's more of arealism.
But if it's going to be like aMichael Bay movie and
everything's batshit crazy,that's okay for everything to

(02:24):
explode, and also clarity interms of the action.
I have to know what's going on,and if I don't know what's
going on, I don't like it.
The movie I always come back tois Alien Covenant.
I don't know if y'all rememberwatching that.
It is so jittery and it cutslike crazy, Like when the two

(02:46):
robots Michael Fassbender'sfight.
It's unbearable to watch.
It's been a while since I'veseen it and I was literally like
in my chair watching in thetheater, like what are we doing,
Scott?
But in this you know it's veryclear what's happening.
It looks great.

Speaker 4 (03:02):
Well, that's like I think I mentioned that in one of
the episodes before.
Maybe it was pre-talk before it.
It was when I went and watchedthe first Bourne movie and the
shaky and everything.
I was like I can't, there's toomuch like what is happening
right now.
Yeah, we can't focus on asingle fight.
Paul Greengrass that's like hisstyle.
I hated it.
Because after watching John Wickand I went on Jackie Chan thing

(03:25):
for a while watching becausethere's stunts.
He does Watch Police Storyeverybody.
I didn't need to watch that.
Wait, which one was that?

Speaker 1 (03:31):
one.
It's a police story.
Is that like Rush Hour?
No, it's a.
It's like one of his.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
I think it's like earlier works and Jackie Chan
and it cracked me up, but ClearAction.
Once I kind of figured outthat's what that is when I
enjoyed that it's hard to watch,like when I went back to try
and watch Transformers.
Everyone talks about how theycan't watch anything and I

(03:56):
didn't realize how much when therobots are just fighting
they're like blending together.
I I have no idea what's goingon.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
They're just fighting over Mrs Fox.

Speaker 4 (04:07):
It's the same thing that happened in the first Venom
movie at the end, where the badguy and Venom are fighting at
night and Venom's black and theother guy is like dark, dark red
or something and they're fusedtogether fighting.
I have no idea what's going on.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Well, it's got to be about color, yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yeah, those yeah, and it's kind of like Transformers,
where it's like I don't knowwho the bad guy is, like we have
to figure out how to makethings look more clear.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
Well, I think Rise of the Beast or something it was
better, yeah, the day at onepoint where they're fighting and
it's not like a bunch of thingstackling at once.
And the thing with MichaelBay's Transformers they have a
lot more mechanical partsshowing, so there's a lot darker
.
Ooh, dakota, your mechanicalparts are showing.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
Yeah, that's the one where all the Transformers kind
of start grinding together.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, like are they fighting or what?

Speaker 4 (04:59):
Yeah versus like, because in the rise of the beast
they all have more like.
A classic design, is that?

Speaker 1 (05:03):
gorilla humping that semi truck I hope so they do
love each other.
Ooh, stick it in my tailpipehow do transformers have sex?
I don't think they do.
I think they.
Just they have to.

Speaker 4 (05:14):
They don't well, I mean our female transformers.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
They do pee in one yeah, bumblebee pees on John
Totoro and on John Turturro andthey also have nuts because
remember in the second one thegiant one that fused from like
five of them.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
He's like where are you at?
He's like I'm under the balls.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
I'm actually getting really upset that we're talking
so much about the shitty moviesAll right.
Keanu Reeves right.
Yeah, I want y'all to dosomething Between, do something
between Matrix, the final Matrixmovie and John Wick.
Name three Keanu Reeves movies.
There weren't any.

Speaker 4 (05:50):
Between John Wick and the Matrix.
Was that Knock at the Door?
Was that after John Wick?
I think?

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Knock, knock Year after.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
Can't name anything right.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
Because he didn't do anything right.
Wow, this guy literally cannotdie Once you think he's out.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
He pulls you right back in.
Well, you know why he did thatright.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Well, I mean, he just didn't do any movies that are
that memorable.
Well, and I know that he hadsome personal issues.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
Well, I think in the beginning of the Matrix and
before it, his wife died andlike or their child like their
child had like well, their child, like she had a miscarriage or
something.
It was stillborn and then hiswife died not long after that.
But he was already doing theMatrix and he finished that up
and I think after it finished hejust kind of took some time

(06:37):
away to like, because he's avery like, Did he get a dog?
I think he took some time awayto like, just Came back to
murder movies.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Yeah well, so between Matrix, revolutions and John
Wick, he did 15 movies oh dang,so he wasn't, so he just he,
just like he was, like he justdidn't pick any good projects.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
I will say this I did expect you guys to say one, and
that was Constantine.

Speaker 4 (07:02):
I didn't know that.
Oh, I did love Constantine.
That's kind of the.
That's a good movie and for melike.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
I like something's got to give he's.
So you guys to say one, andthat was Constantine.

Speaker 4 (07:06):
I didn't know, that, oh, I did love Constantine I
haven't even seen it.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
That's kind of the.
That's a good movie and for me,like I like Something's.

Speaker 4 (07:10):
Gotta Give.
He's so fucking hot in thatmovie.
Constantine's just a good likesupernatural like.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
I do.
He was fighting demons, right.
Yeah, I think that Hales in theCoffin or something, thinking
that was a cool.

Speaker 4 (07:24):
He does a good job in that role.
That movie was just good.
It used to come on like what ifstars HBO all the time and I
would watch it like I bought,like the.
I think about the 4K steelbookRecently.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Well, it's just wild because we think of him as such
a big action star, right, likereally his best action movies.
You got Point Break.
It's just wild because we thinkof him as such a big action
star, right, like really hisbest action movies.
You got Point Break, which weknow Jason's a fan it always
gets Rob back up Jason, you'revery much in the minority there
and then like he goes from likeall right, so 91 up until Speed

(08:01):
in 94.
He does Speed, one of the greataction movies, Shut up, Jason.
I think that's his best actingperformance he's ever done, and
then he goes from 94 to theMatrix, and then he does from 99
to, let's see, reloaded is2003,.
Or, yeah, revolution is also2003.
So that's his action.
And then Rom-Com, rom-com,rom-com, Constantine, the weird

(08:24):
Scanner Darkly movie, but that's, you know, just voice acting.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
I always kind of wanted to see that I watched the
trailer.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
Yeah, my boss sent me a trailer and I was like this
is Robert Downey Jr and Keanu.
What is this?

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Richard Linklater Dazed and Confused and things
like that.

Speaker 4 (08:38):
I love.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
Dazed and Confused he loves to do like kind of
experimental things, um, butthen he does like a lot of like,
really like b movie type, like47, ronin man of tai chi, movies
like that, um, that are justlike nobody really likes or
talks about ever.
And then he does john wick.
It's just wild.
He almost could add thattrajectory of um trajectory, not
trajectory of being like brucewillis, where it's just nothing

(09:00):
but these low budget kind oflike movies where he shows up
for five minutes to film andsometimes they have to get an
actor to like portray the backof his head because he decided
not to come out of his trailerthat day.
Stand in, and it's just wild.
Like you know, like when I lookat his filmography I'm like
he's been in my life, my entirelife, and I've always thought of
him as like.
When I think about actors andstuff, I'm like have I even

(09:22):
really watched that many moviesof his?
It's just like the same five orsix over and over and I'm like
he's the best god dang bad actoryou've ever seen it's like he
could have been like Nick Cagefor a while, but he never really
.
He's this weird.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
He's gotten lucky yeah, well, I think he's just
not like.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
Nick.
Cage and Taylor Swift are thesame.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
Think about that you see what Nick Cage looks like
currently for his role as JohnMadden.

Speaker 3 (09:51):
I think I saw a little bit.
He's gonna be John.

Speaker 4 (09:53):
Madden.
I don't know if that's a fatsuit or if he actually got fat.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
That sucks to think about he's already.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
He's been kind of.
I already don't want to seethis movie.
I can't wait to see it.
I want to see it twice at thesame time.
Football, nick Cage.
I'm in.

Speaker 4 (10:11):
I think Keanu is like Bruce Willis and Nick Cage
together.
Yeah, like they.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
He's got his little niche so a few other things I
want to bring up.
So, in terms of this movie,something that I love is we see
him get his ass kicked.
I almost said kiss.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
I was trying not to say kiss the whole time.
He does get a kiss.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
I mean, we'll kiss it now, because we love the guy.
But it's something so fun andit's like I guess I just didn't
remember as much in the sequelsof it of him just like
constantly getting beat up, andit actually feels like he's
getting beat up In this one.
It's great.
As soon as you meet him, we seehim get beat up at the very
beginning.
It's like, oh cool, it's anaction hero that we're actually

(10:54):
going to see die Until he getsbeat up again, and then he has a
doctor put stitches in him andhe immediately has a fight.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
Yeah, and she punches him several times.
I was like your stitches wouldbe so open.
It's great.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
We see him fail multiple times to this film,
like when he goes to thenightclub.
He gets thrown off the top ofthe thing and it's like I guess
I should run away yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
My target's gone, but it's like great he, he wasn't
insured to do it.

Speaker 4 (11:21):
Yeah, I love that.
That's another thing I likeabout him is him really
committing to doing his ownstunts.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
He did like 90% of his own stunts, I believe.

Speaker 4 (11:27):
Yeah, and at that age is nuts.
Yeah, Because usually I thinkHarrison Ford really had kind of
stopped doing his own stunts atthat age.

Speaker 2 (11:36):
Yeah, they kind of had to make him once.
He crashed all thosehelicopters.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
He's like you know what he?

Speaker 4 (11:41):
didn't?
He's like you.
Don't walk off anything nowthat I hurt himself.

Speaker 1 (11:43):
You can't land a plane, and Nathan Fielder landed
a buoy 747 a buoy yeah,whatever.

Speaker 4 (11:49):
However you say, yeah , he landed a buoy.
That's pretty impressive.
He got a buoy to fly and thenlanded it another element of
this movie.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
It only takes like 15 to 20 minutes to set up an
entire universe.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
It's like great.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
I really love the flow.
He gets his dog.
They kill the dog.
Guess what.
That's the end of everyone.
Did the puppy have to be so?
God dang cute.

Speaker 4 (12:12):
I know, you know that second that dog was like Broly,
come here, come here, broly.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
It was just like even every time I watch it I'm just
like no, every fucking person onthis planet deserves to die.
That's what I was telling him.
If he came to my house and saidmy dog's dead, I'm like take me
.
I'm sorry I didn't haveanything to do with it, but I
get it, john take me out.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
He just he kills your dog and you just hear the Kill
Bill music that and you just seeRed.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
That's fucking chemistry we built baby between
me and Jason no, my wife thoughtthe same thing.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
She was like cause she hates all these movies.
I feel like this is the kind ofmovie the guys walk out of the
theater and they look likethey've just nutted.
Really they've got that postnut clarity and the women are
all just angry.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
See to me I always feel like there's something
about keanu keanu reeves thatlike, even though it's like a
boy action movie, like keanureeves transcends boy action
movies he does there's somethingabout I think it's because he's
so sad looking he's so sad.
He was a project and also he'sso fucking hot in something you
don't understand what makes italso?

Speaker 4 (13:21):
better is how you said the action you can clearly
see what's going on.
So they're sitting able to likebecause we watch the blind
action movies and just enjoy itfor the crazy stupid stuff.
But like I feel like if theslower, like paced action where
you can see what they're doingwith their fighting, you can
actually enjoy it Like oh, ohwell, that's something I'm like
man.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
The action in this movie is so good, right, I feel
like even if you're someonewho's not really into action
movies, you have to be able towatch this and be like that's so
cool, and but you know, somepeople just aren't into this
thing.

Speaker 3 (13:49):
But I'm just like you how not, how not can?

Speaker 4 (13:53):
you be into this.
She's watched all of them Likeshe was ready to see the fourth
one.
Yeah, of course we were at theMalco and our ears were nearly
gone in the first few minutes.
Dude.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
I haven't seen any of the other ones, just when he
punches the punching bag.
The only issue with the otherones is they get way too long
they do.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
They amp it up too a little because, like you know,
he wears a bulletproof vest.
In this one he wearsbulletproof suits in the next
one.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
Yeah, like.
He's like oh, you're back inhere.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
Things have changed.
Now the lining is in there,he's able to stop bullets.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Pretty much.

Speaker 4 (14:25):
So they did it just so he didn't have to wear a vest
the whole time he runs intogunfire while just holding up
his suit over his head.
It somehow is able to stop thebullet, but it doesn't stop the.
They still feel the sting.
It doesn't fully stop thebullet, so you still feel the
sting of it.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
So you see them and you know what, jason, you think
it might be too much, and youknow what it's not enough.
The second one's not favorite.
We need more.

Speaker 4 (14:47):
They really got like a good stride of like having in
between more sequel, but weamped it up more because in the
third one, like it gets, it goeshigher than the fourth and goes
even higher.
Yeah, he's in the fourth one.
Hell yeah, I love those guys.
It's just really really long.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
I love that movie because no one knows how to say
it.
Is it Ip man or Ip man?
We just don't know.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
I've always said Ip man, just because.

Speaker 4 (15:12):
Ip sounds weird to me .
I think they said Ip man, Ipman at the end.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
Yeah, you're probably right, which is weird.

Speaker 1 (15:26):
And also another thing.
Something that's really funabout the movie is how the this
movie is so good at building auniverse right, so slowly.
It shows you some things at thebeginning and then you're like,
what are these gold coins for?
And then they call the peopleto take.
It's like, oh, that's probablyjust like some cleaners, he
knows.
And he calls and then he goesto this hotel and it's like,
what is this lingo?
What is this world?
All I want is so much of it.
And then they gave us fourmovies of it and it's great and

(15:47):
they just kept properly buildingit and it's fun.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
Insert the coin into the slot to get into the cool
club with all the other killers.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
And then they're like , hey, let's do spinoffs and TV
shows, and then let's doballerina, and it's like, what
are we doing this?

Speaker 2 (15:59):
is enough.
I like the idea that they alluse gold as a currency.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yeah it's great For assassins going.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
They're like pirates.
Yes, that's what I thought ofwhen I first saw it.

Speaker 4 (16:08):
Did I tell you about what happened with Ballerina?
I thought I mentioned it onetime.
So Ballerina, obviously on aday armistice.
Chad Aronofsky is that his name?
The director of this?
Chad Stah, it is Chad, I don'tknow how to say his name Stahol,

(16:30):
stalski, stalski, okay, well,anyways that director he did
four and he was like kind ofready to break away because he
didn't want to keep like goingwith the world.
He's like I think I've reachedmy limit with it, so he's like
I'm gonna step away.
Well, obviously, whoever ownsit made another movie with in
that world and they screened themovie for him.

(16:50):
Because he's like I'm not goingto do it.
And he said this is so bad, Iwill.
I will come back to do this Ihave to do it.
He came back and read in like hegot rid of like 80 percent like
oh man of the footage, I thinkand he did like reshoots and
like apparently fixed it.
Okay, he's like it was so badwith what they screened.
He came back and either did 80%reshoots or got rid of 80% of

(17:13):
it and he like came like this isbad enough.
He's like I'm not letting youdo this to my world.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
It's like John Wick friendship is magic.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
I don't know what they did, which has me worried
that it's not to be good.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
You know what's really cool how, every time they
show a trailer for it, it justshows John Wick in it and I'm
like wow, couldn't just savethat for the movie, that would
have been fun if John Wick justpopped up and I didn't know he
was going to pop up.

Speaker 4 (17:33):
Yeah, Well, it's like we got to make sure you know
this is the same world to bringhim in, Because that's what they
did with cyber.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
When they announced Cyberpunk was released, nobody
knew that.

Speaker 4 (17:46):
Keanu.
Reeves was going to be in itand he comes out on stage and
everyone's like yeah, yeah, he'sJohnny Silverhand get ready,
guys because if you look at him,he's so awkward and he's like
and here it is he looks so stiffit's like ah it's just so like
it just makes it feel like he'sa real person.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
Well, they did.
Man, I love like those game,like convention things.
They're always so bad, it'salways terrible.

Speaker 4 (18:09):
I still remember the first time I felt cringe from
watching one of those, and itwas the Ubisoft one.
Mr Caffeine came out.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Do you remember what I'm talking about?
No, I don't remember that.

Speaker 4 (18:19):
I think it was for Rayman or Just Dance, and this
is how he's like we're going inthis movie.
Let's get it up there and he'dgo and.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
I'm like what is happening?
Why are you doing the Wayne'sWorld thing he was.
It was bad.
I remember, like all the Kinectstuff, them coming out and
doing it and like them trying todo it.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
And it's like I don't think and it wasn't even
working.

Speaker 4 (18:40):
It was obviously a pre this is pre-taste.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
This is terrible.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
Because they're so bad so let's hop into some facts
.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
So, according to director's interview, chad
Stahulski and David Leitch which, by the way, this was directed
by both of them, but because theDirectors Guild of America
won't allow two directors to bea part of it, for some fucking
reason David just got put as aproducer and Chad got put as the
director, even though they bothproduced and both directed.

(19:07):
So they reused quite a few ofthe stuntmen several times
throughout the film in order tomake them look like different
people.
They would change their hair.
So scenes of the guards andhenchmen with long hair and
beards were shot first, and thescenes with the bald men were
most likely shot last becausethey were running out of budget
so great, though last becausethey were running out of budget.
So great, though I tried towatch it and.

Speaker 4 (19:26):
I was like they did a pretty good job.
Do you have the fact aboutSalma Hayek?
No, I think it's Salma Hayek.
I don't know exactly who it is,so it was.
I don't know if it was her, butit was the sexiest Spaniard
ever walked.
It was some actress, I can'tremember her name.
I thought it was her for somereason.
It was like yeah, like shedonated five Eva Longoria.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
Was it Eva Longoria?
Yeah, it's Eva Longoria, so youknow what I'm talking about.
Yeah, she was a producer onthis thing and the directors
were like we never met her once.
But I thank her for our money.
Yeah, because like they.

Speaker 4 (19:58):
What was it they needed?
They ran budget and theyweren't gonna be able to finish
the film without that last bit.
She donated like five to sixmillion to it because she
believed in it.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
I like to think that the reason that Avi, the right
hand man of Vigo in this movie,he's the guy that does the
mayhem commercials yeah, he doeslike the all state mayhem
commercials and he's also thevulture in Brooklyn Nine-Nine
which we're watching, and evenLongoria is in the season that
he's in and I'm like I wonder ifshe got him a role in this
that's cool but I love thatactor, he's so good in those

(20:29):
commercials.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
I think she's the reason we got John Wick, pretty
much because that's a lot ofmoney to donate towards the end,
isn't?

Speaker 2 (20:34):
it nice to think that all Hollywood actors are
friends.
Yeah, aren't they all.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
So the directors credit Keanu Reeves dedication
and talent with their ability todo long takes during the fights
.
Chad Stoloski I can't wait tonot say his name anymore.
He says I think we really onlycut for impact.
We didn't really cut to getaround moves.
We didn't cut to speed thingsup.
We wanted you to see whathappens before, during and after

(21:05):
.
You're not using long lenses tohide bad action.
David said so yeah, that's apart of why they're able to do
it.
Keanu Reeves are so good thatthey didn't have to cut a lot,
but so the fact that they didn'thave a huge budget they didn't,
and they just so.
They just decided to use widelenses so that they could film
more of the action and not haveto cut it up, and that's why the

(21:26):
action is so great and you seeeverything.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
They didn't go all Howard Hughes on it.

Speaker 4 (21:30):
Yeah, and Howard.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
Hughes the shit out of it.
So, director, the director ofthis movie, chad Chad.
He was a stunt double for KeanuReeves through most of his
career, and especially on theMatrix, and they became best
friends.
Do that, and that's you knowwhy I got this movie.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
Man, what if you had a best friend that was your
double.

Speaker 1 (21:48):
You just make him do all this shit you don't want to
do it's like should we kiss, Idon't know Did you see what
happened with Daniel Radcliffe'sdouble no and he broke his back
and he's been paralyzed butDaniel.

Speaker 4 (22:05):
Radcliffe has like stayed in his life with him
because he like understood,because I think they got in
close to the first three or fourmovies I don't know which one
it was and they even had a bookcome out and, I think, a
documentary on it to talk aboutyeah, they did have a
documentary and I'm sitting herewe got a documentary about
stunts and the stunt people.
We have the fall guy and we haveJohn Wick, because John Wick I
was like it shows you what adirector who's done stunts

(22:26):
because to me that was such abig deal is like.
It shows you that world andwhat they can bring into it with
their experience and still nothaving a stunt category at the
Oscars is ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (22:35):
They will now this year.
They're bringing it Finally.

Speaker 4 (22:39):
You know how mad that makes me, because we've had
John Wick and we had the fallguy.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
The fall guy should be the one to do it, yeah they
would have won every time,except maybe, like Top Gun,
maverick may have gotten it.
Just because you know, tomCruise drove plane.

Speaker 4 (22:51):
Well, so do you think with that category?
Because I always wondered, ifthey introduced the category,
would that push directors to domore stunt, like actual stunts,
to try and get that category?
What is it going to bring in?
Like maybe a new wave of moviestrying to.
We're going to see a lot moreactual stunts, more stunts, more
stunts.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
Do you think it's going to make it?
I'm going to bust your bubble.
It will not.

Speaker 3 (23:13):
I say in five years they get rid of that category.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
No, I mean I think that the action movies will
probably want to have betterstunts.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
I want to see someone thrown into a like a jet engine
and get mincemeat like.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
I don't think this is gonna make like noah bomb back
like a indie director.
Be like, I need more.
No, not like that.

Speaker 4 (23:32):
I just mean, do you think there's gonna be like
directors who are already doingaction movies?
It's like, let me put moretowards, because it changes your
mindset of like well, let melook into this because it could
be a category.
I win it, because when you havea category for stunts, what
makes stunts great is the liveaction part of it, yeah.
And when you get more physicalwith it, because sometimes it
could lead people down to like,well, let me start studying more

(23:53):
about what we could do.
I feel like it could lead to,depending on who you are about.
I have learned what I wantedand I think it would be great,
because anytime you talk aboutpeople who have like great
action movies as people who caneither do their own stunts or
they film the stunts, well, yeah, and the action is better.
And that's when people are likethe movie is great because you
see real action happening.
I feel like we can maybe gothat way, but with AI also, we

(24:14):
could just go fucking nowhere.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
Yeah, it's weird.
I don't know how they're goingto do the category, because it's
going to be like is it justgoing to be like who did stunts
better, who has most stunts, whogot the most hurt?
Yeah, and it's just like are wegoing to consider, like
pyrotechnics, a part of stunts,like cause?

Speaker 4 (24:30):
that would be physical.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Like Michael Bay has.

Speaker 4 (24:33):
Like I mean, I'm sure there's a ton of stunts in his
things, but I'm always like he'smore explosions, not more
stunts stunts, but you don'tkind of, you don't see them,
though you see the explosion inone person I like, like with
fall guy.
It shows you all the stuntsthey do, I think.
At least I guess that's more myview is, when you actually see
someone physically in the carand you have the camera there

(24:54):
and they do a roll andexplosions go around, yeah,
you're more focused on theperson.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
It feels like you're in it.
Well, I'm just like well, theyconsider consider like something
like Creed to be a stunt heavymovie.
I mean it's more of achoreographed fight.
But I mean stunts are justchoreographed balls, right.
So I'm like, would theyconsider some a movie like Creed
, which I was like that's one ofthe my favorite action movies,
even though it's just boxing.
I guess it's more of a sportmovie, not an action movie, but

(25:19):
I'm like that's a really hardstunt to film around.
You got like 12 rounds offighting.
You kind of have to choreographand stunt out, right.
So it's like are they going tolike, is that going to be a part
of it?
I don't know.
I can't wait.
I'm so excited.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
It could just only make things better yeah.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Hopefully.

Speaker 4 (25:38):
As long as they do it , okay, we're right.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
What do we do when there's like a very low stunt,
heavy like year?
Because I'm like right now,what movies were the stunts?
I guess?

Speaker 4 (25:47):
Thunderbolts.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Thunderbolts.
That's it so far.

Speaker 4 (25:50):
Yeah, that's why I'm hoping this could maybe push
them to, because it's always themovies that also come out, like
when you get a director likeGuillermo del Toro and like I
loved his movie because there'spractical effects everywhere.
Yeah, I was like could we maybeinspire like cause there's
always a like, there's adifferent flow and way movies go
, like action movies where thepeak went down and then CGI
started taking over.
So it depends on what ways wehave in Hollywood.

(26:12):
It just, of course, witheverything going, I feel like AI
is just going to ruin it.
But I'm hoping we get like awave of more practical stunts
and seeing more of like peoplelearning to do better, cooler
stunts and black people like tosee the action, like people got
inspired from um, from JasonBourne action, to do all that
shaky cam stuff.
It was like maybe they can takesome inspiration and do longer

(26:32):
choreographed fights and morejust, bigger, longer stunts.
Like Fall Guy.
I thought was the greatestexample of seeing cause.
Like you know it's not RyanGosling, but you're seeing,
you're understanding cause.
It's putting you in the mindsetof seeing a stunt person and
you know more and open thatworld.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
Yeah, Well, the Fall Guy had to be good at stunts,
because it's a movie aboutstunts, but they did such a good
job.

Speaker 4 (27:01):
It opens, someone could who's like I'm gonna
direct this movie uh, let mewatch fall guy and they can get
inspired from.
It's like I want to be on thislevel of recording these live
action stunts I want to get goodchoreography.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
That's going to be the main sell this movie.
Oh yeah, you know what?
If it comes so saturated thatit was all reverts back to
slipping on banana peels hellyeah, we can go back to charlie
chaplin levels and stuff.

Speaker 4 (27:14):
I feel like you see all those stunts they did I like
, like where this is going.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
I mean shit, that's what Pixar does in all their
movies.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
They go back to Charlie Chaplin stuff.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
It works every time Cool.
So, according to the director'scommentary, when they shot the
top-level nightclub fightsequence, Keanu Reeves had the
flu and was running 104 fever.
Fuck yeah man, you couldn'teven get him to sit down.
Chad said he just did takeafter take.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
He just did take after take.
It was delirious.
Someone should have stepped in.

Speaker 4 (27:39):
Is that why his hair is like all greased back?
Because he's sweating Probably?

Speaker 1 (27:44):
He's on the verge of death.
He's like all right, we'regoing to throw you off this
second story building.
He's like cool, make it be mylast stunt.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
And actually kill me.
That was some chicken soupwaiting for me.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
Make sure I go into it.
I have a coma for it, so I canget over this fever.

Speaker 4 (27:58):
It's so funny because I think that's why I like these
so much is just seeing Keanu,because I watch a lot of behind
the scenes and him doing histraining, like the martial arts
training.
You can see he's literallyexhausted, sweating, and he gets
back and he's like okay, let'sgo again.
And seeing that push.
And I think it's just fromworking out, because saying the

(28:20):
sick thing makes me think aboutone day I was sick after work
from glc and I was like god, Igot I think I had school after,
maybe it was just the gym.
I was like I really don't wantto go to the gym because I feel
like because I was sick and Istill went to the gym and I had
pushed harder and was able tolift heavier than I was and I
gave crap, I was giving crap tomy buddy about it.
But I like I get that.
Like even you're sick, you canstill push if you want to, even
though you're that sick, and I'mlike I get it, you shouldn't do

(28:41):
it, but yeah, that's how theplague has spread Me with a
fever like I can't even change.

Speaker 2 (28:47):
That's why the plague spread so rapidly.
Everyone was working out sohard.

Speaker 4 (28:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
I gotta get my gains.

Speaker 4 (28:59):
That was when I was younger, though I don't know how
he was doing that at his ageand pushing it.
Yeah, for real.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
That was like four years ago.

Speaker 4 (29:05):
No, it was like seven or more because it's been a
while.
It was before I started class.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
So Keanu Reeves' preparation for the role
included weapons and martialarts training eight hours a day
for four months, and I guessit's kind of like collateral
that we talked about yesterdaywhere, like people who are in
the business of training, likecops and stuff, said his
reloading is probably perfectreloading and it's they haven't.
They've never seen someoneoutside of the business be able

(29:32):
to reload like that.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
Hey, why don't they train real cops like this?

Speaker 1 (29:36):
Because it's eight hours a day for four months yeah
no, they don't do that.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
Specifically gun training.
I feel like that's like one ofthe most important things you
could train on.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
I don't actually know how they train cops in just
like a week or a month likethree months it's all virtual
reality well.

Speaker 4 (29:53):
so like mentioning that there was a scene I saw
talking with Al Kilmer in Heatand he said he's like I felt
very impressed they were filmingnear somewhere, near Fort Bragg
or somewhere, and a militaryguy told him he's like I show
them that scene and I tell them98% of y'all are not going to be
able to shoot that good.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
Sounds familiar.

Speaker 4 (30:16):
Well, not shooting, but his reload, how quickly he
does it in the scene, is likespot on what he wants.
And I was telling the guy who Iwork with about it and sent it
to him.
He's like, well, they do thatfor motivation.
I was like I know it's becauseyou're looking at someone,
you're in the military, youshould be able to be able to
reload that good.
And it's also like he's justacting and he did training just
for fun and that's how good hegot.
I expect you to be at thatfucking level.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
Well, the only what's familiar about it is the
degradation.

Speaker 4 (30:42):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (30:43):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
And they just expect you to be good.
Yeah, yeah, well, it's to pushyou.

Speaker 4 (30:50):
But I also like I got into like his watching him
shoot and just I don't know whatit is, shoot and just I don't
know what it is.
I guess he just like when hededicates himself to it.
You see it and I like it well.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Also, you have to remember the difference between
uh, keanu Reeves learning thisis he's getting paid a lot of
money to learn this versus whenyou go to like other things,
you're like you're not gonnamake that much money and they're
probably not really paying youthat much as you're training, so
it's just like I don't know youdon't get as much training.

Speaker 4 (31:19):
You don't get eight hours a day for six weeks, you
get like once every couple weeks, you get like a few hours well,
I mean like, and you're alsolearning, like how to do
paperwork and I'm sure, allkinds of extra stuff I think I
mean more of like there's otheractors who could do that, but
they don't go as far as thatbecause they can take that and
like because there was likesomething I saw about um that,
that Iron Fist show that was onNetflix Iron Fish Fist.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
I know, I just want to say Iron Fist.
What do you think?

Speaker 3 (31:44):
Fish.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
The Iron Fist show was pretty fun, but only for the
scenes where he punched thethings.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
Are y'all saying Fist ?
All I'm hearing in myheadphones is Fish.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
I like Iron.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
Fist better.
I don't know, are you kind offishy about?

Speaker 4 (31:57):
it right now.
I don't know you kind of fishyabout it right now.
But someone came out and wastalking about he didn't name
names but everyone complainedthat the Iron Fish guy did not,
did not, the choreography wasn'tgood choreography.
And a stunt performer directorcame out and said was like, yeah

(32:19):
, like he didn't really show upon set a lot, but they, they
still filmed, it, showed theworld that you don't have to do
that much.
yeah, it's just like withworking out, like even though
they do ruids on the side to getthat big, some people you could
see who really put a lot oftime into it for eight hours,
where someone's like I went liketwo, two, two hours a day,
every day, which is still a lot.
Yeah, but you see thedifference, if someone has had
dedication and that's what Ilike about Keanu, the martial
arts, the shooting it'sdedication and it seems like it

(32:42):
pays off on film.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Yeah, he's a very dedicated actor.
I love it.
It makes me feel great.

Speaker 4 (32:48):
I do gotta say I didn't realize until I was
watching this, because I putdown a note and it was like John
Wick Films brings out myInter-American and I was like I
did start buying my few guns.
I started buying at the time,yeah, I remember was when John
Wick 2 had came out, yeah, and Iwas like I'm just really into
it, gotta have one.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
John Wick 4, the fucking guns are amazing, I know
.
Okay.
So this next fact.
It's kind of like three factsall put together, so it might be
a second for me to finish itall.
So in the original script thecharacter of John Wick was
written with a was written a manin his mid 60s to play the role
, given the title character'sfabled reputation.
Ergo, the filmmakers hadinitially imagined an older

(33:27):
actor.
However, head of Thunder RoadPictures decided against this,
stating instead we decided tolook for someone who is not
literally older, but who was aseasoned history in the film
world.
So the first version of thescript was titled Scorn I
remember that yeah.
And while similar, it was a lotdifferent from the final film.
For example, the character wasolder, he didn't have any

(33:50):
dialogue for the first 25 pagesand his dog was originally 18
years old.
As in the final film, the dogwas the last gift from the dying
wife.
After it was killed, it goes ona revenge rampage.
The body count was much lowerSomewhere between six to 12
people died in the first draftNot enough.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
How many died in this one?
Because I got that fact 74people, something like that.
I got 77.
77, yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:11):
And so the movie was called Scorn.
Keanu Reeves kept referring toit as John Wick.
According to the writer, derekcan't say that was name.
Marketing was like dude four tofive million free advertising
so far.
So it's John Wick instead ofScorn because he just he just
kept saying John Wick instead ofScorn.
I mean I like it.
The building for thecontinental, the outside, it was

(34:33):
the same one used in the stockexchange from Dark Knight Rises.

Speaker 4 (34:37):
Okay because I watched that not long ago and I
was like, huh, that buildinglooks a bit familiar.

Speaker 1 (34:43):
Yeah, but the first few things about the original
script.
That's some of my favoritefacts about movies is when it's
like you just hear about thefirst script and it's like they
really didn't have this figuredout.
Though there's a show on FXcalled the Old man and it's Jeff
Bridges and it's an actionmovie and it's really a lot like

(35:03):
this.
Actually, he's like a ex-CIAagent or whatever and he's like
really good at fighting.
Watch the first three episodes.
It's fucking fantastic.
I didn't continue watching it.

Speaker 4 (35:13):
I think me and her tried to watch it, but and her
tried to watch it, but we gotbored.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
He's got this old man just fucking fighting.

Speaker 4 (35:19):
Because he's so old, he's just more a lot of talking
versus actually being able to dostuff.
That first episode there's alot of fighting, you talking
though made me realize with mymovie to go with this.
At the end I got it and I wroteit down.
So, yeah, I'm.

Speaker 1 (35:33):
This is perfect A follow up to watch.
So, in an interview for ScreenJunkies on February 16th 2017,
chad and David mentioned howthere was an alternate ending
for the film, which had Johnsimply shooting Vigo and killing
him, but they decided to usethe other version of the ending,
where the two men fight.
There also was a different one.
They were going to have a lotmore of a fight, but then they

(35:56):
were like, uh no, this guy'sshould not be able to have any
like ability against John Wick.
And even though, parts of thefight still doesn't work at the
end for me.

Speaker 4 (36:07):
I'm just like, yeah, like I literally was sitting
here like waiting for it, andI'm like, after everything that
happened, I was like I thinkthat was.
The problem is like, well,we're going to film you, not put
a stunt double in.
And they're like, if we'regoing to do that, the fight's
going to be a lot.

Speaker 3 (36:19):
Yes, and it worked better because you can keep the
actor on screen.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
Let's grapple each other, all right.
That's about all the facts.
I got A few other things aboutthis.
This movie is slick as hell.

Speaker 4 (36:30):
It is Especially Keanu's hair.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
Everybody looks so good, the cinematography is so
good, just the colors, so darkand how dark it is.
But it's just the houses, thebuildings, that nightclub.
Where the hell is thisnightclub?

Speaker 2 (36:45):
Seven minutes in heaven, three different layers.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
And it's always a completely different vibe in all
of it.
I'm like I want to go to anightclub and hang out in a pool
Except I don't because it'sprobably disgusting.
Yeah, that's gross.
I saw random fact.

Speaker 4 (36:57):
I saw a thing that says, if you want to like the
one of the biggest thingssomeone checked for like
bacteria and say do not do, isVegas pools oh wow, and I was
like good point pissing in itwhat do you think about the
people who are going to Vegas,not that creek that RFK Jr swam
in.
Oh, our health chief, ourhealth chief or whatever, who

(37:18):
also said you shouldn't betaking health advice from me.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Like I don't really know a lot about health, why am
I here, everybody?

Speaker 1 (37:24):
What's the point?
John Wick's making his polycharge baby, all right.
So I think it's time to hopinto the plot, baby, and
remember.
There you go.
We have our new category.
It's called what's the point?
It's because I often findmyself asking my wife.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
What's the?

Speaker 1 (37:43):
point of this movie or this show that we just spent
10?

Speaker 2 (37:46):
hours watching.
Disclaimer you do need to havea woman present.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
She'll tell you everything.
No, it's just a fun littlething.

Speaker 4 (37:52):
I think about it every time.
I was literally thinking thatas I was watching.
And when I try and analyze thisyeah, you know, as I interrupt
a lot I sit there and think,well, think about this.
I saw it in that moment.
And when I'm trying to actuallythink about what he's thinking
about in the moment, yeah, whenit's just like it's always.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
Every time I watch a movie, especially when I go to
theaters, I'm like I can't talkabout this movie.
I have to think every singlesecond about this movie, like
when I watch sinners.
I was like I was just like, oh,because you know, we watched it
together and then we drove backhome and, as I was just like I
don't want to say too much,because I want to know the point
of the movie, was it civilrights?

(38:28):
Uh, not civil rights.

Speaker 4 (38:31):
It was.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
I found it to be more about, uh um, people stealing
culture from people.

Speaker 4 (38:38):
It was yeah, and like also culture representation,
dude, you gotta like, you gottalike when that comes out on
blu-ray, that's gotta besomething you do soon, because
that movie is amazing.
I get chills like once a daybecause I keep thinking about
that movie, like it's what I wastelling him, which I know you
like I noticed after the movies.
You're doing that because I'llsit there and think too, and
I'll sit here and, as you noticeme, it's like, man, that scene
was so good.

(38:58):
Because I'll sit here and I'mlike this scene too and I'm like
I just start playing and I'mlike, god, it's so good, because
I'll analyze it later and beable to think on it and then
it's one of those movies that Ihave put on.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
I will own that movie and it that we're doing it.

Speaker 4 (39:15):
Fuck yeah I told you when I left the movie, Grubb
already had it up for pre-orderfor Steelcase and I almost
bought it and I was like, ohgosh, maybe I should wait until
it goes on sale.
And I still have debated aboutbuying because I love that movie
.
So much.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
Sinners is going to be our first four-person podcast
, probably because Devin wantsto be on that one.
Oh, the plot.
You at home think about thismovie and like what's it trying
to say?

Speaker 4 (39:38):
it could just be like action cool guns, cool gun fu,
great um yes well that, likeyou're asking people, I feel
like it's you're asking them toengage in what they have,
because it's always you'reseeing someone's opinion on what
they see.
Yeah, because, like how mygirlfriend's view is, we always
say it's very different,especially when we watch horror
movies.
Um, because just watched someshow called Sirens on Netflix

(40:05):
and her interpretation that shesaw it for Kevin Bacon's
character and the title of it, Iwas like, oh, that's a very
good view.
I see your point of view.
I thought it was really good.
I also looked it up.
Nobody's agreeing with me.
I was like, I don't know, Ithink your view works way better
and it makes more sense.
Other people's opinions don'tknow.
I think your view works waybetter and it makes more sense.

Speaker 1 (40:20):
Yeah, other people's opinions don't matter, we're
American remember.
It's fun to talk about it, butonly my opinion matters, and
that's what we me and Jason Ifigured out.
His opinion bad, my opiniongood.

Speaker 2 (40:32):
Yes, this podcast, obviously I'm beating Jason.

Speaker 4 (40:35):
It's only just because of point break.
That's where it all started.
Point break blowout collateral.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
I agree, I'll hit everyone in this room and run
away.
No blowout I love, y'all gotyou.

Speaker 4 (40:47):
I don't know what the I haven't got to listen to the
collateral episode.
It comes out this Monday, Okay.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
We're filming these back to back days.
Okay, let's go, baby.
All right.
John Wick 2014.
Your mind's about to be blastedout of the back of your skull.
So the film starts with JohnWick looking like he's dying.
He sits and watches a video ofhis wife I put in quotations
shit, I wonder what happened.

(41:12):
I bet we won't find out.
In New York City, john Wick isgrieving the death of his wife,
helen.
We learn she died through theselittle flashes of scenes
quickly and, like you know, wesee him kind of falling in love
and now she's dead.
Then you got the beep beep ashe's going to see her on her
deathbed.
Oh man, I love a good beep beep, beep, flatline, a good death

(41:34):
note Works every time.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
Could you imagine going into this?

Speaker 4 (41:37):
not telling someone, and then you bring him in and
they're like am I watchinganother Keanu Reeves rom-com?

Speaker 1 (41:42):
It's like wait, is this a sad boy Keanu Reeves
movie or is this like and itreally is making you think it's
going to be a sad boy?

Speaker 3 (41:48):
Keanu Reeves movie the entire time.

Speaker 1 (41:51):
We see him go to her funeral and somebody's watching
him.
Played by William Dafoe.

Speaker 4 (41:55):
I forgot how much he was in this.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
He's such a scary looking guy.
He is so scary.
He ominously says he ischecking up on an old friend.
Wick doesn't understand why ithad to be her who died.
It's like why did it have to beher.
It's always great in theseaction movies.
Like I was the bad one.
I've killed people.
Why did she have to be the onethat died?
It's like this world's sounfair and I think she should

(42:21):
come back.
We learned that Helen hadarranged for him to receive a
beagle puppy to help cope withhis loss.
Keanu Reeves is really greatduring the letter reading when
he gets it.
Also, this woman's obsessedwith daisies.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
So wait?
So she set it up for, like onher death, that he would be
delivered a puppy.

Speaker 4 (42:41):
Yeah, I think it's because she knew she was dying
and she yeah, she, I think itwas this wasn't like yeah, it
was like a slow like she's likeI'm gonna die and I need to set
this up for him yeah, oh, howsweet yeah, it's like I get me
like the dog also has cancer onething.

Speaker 1 (42:58):
I thought hey, here's this dog with Parvo enjoy it.

Speaker 4 (43:04):
Can I say of all the John Wick series you still never
see their like because usuallythey'll try and delve into like
why he loved her so much andbring her story in she doesn't
come back to life.
no, we just don't see anyflashbacks either.
It's just all it's the videoand we're just left to interpret
it the whole time about whatthe relationship is.
So that allows you to put inhow you feel about your
relationship and like Iunderstand, yeah, versus someone

(43:25):
, like let's show it.
And this is how we saw it.
Yeah, love the openinterpretation.
It's like with, like horrororigins she loved it.

Speaker 1 (43:34):
You don't really need a flashback to them being in
love and stuff, because you getit.
He kills a bunch of people.

Speaker 4 (43:40):
It's like yeah, I think he definitely loved her.
Yeah, I think he's coming back.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
I have a very serious face.
The bride of Frankenwich.
Yeah, and just again.
This puppy is so fucking cute.

Speaker 3 (43:55):
It is so cute it's got the biggest little ears it's
so tiny and lanky and so cutehe's like sleep on the floor for
one night, and then you're mine.

Speaker 4 (44:03):
I knew that because, dude, I tell you, broly has
fucking ears.
I'm like, oh, I feel so muchmore now.

Speaker 1 (44:10):
And then so we see John and the dog interact.
John tries to get the dog tosleep on the floor, and then
Daisy wakes him up.

Speaker 4 (44:16):
I'm so, and then Daisy wakes him up.
Ah, don't look at you.
That's exactly every morning,dude.
After she feeds Broly.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
Yeah, after he licks his ass, real good.

Speaker 1 (44:24):
Yeah, I don't let dogs look at my face.

Speaker 3 (44:28):
It's gross and I never want to.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
I let them look at my ass first.
Let me get the peanut butterout.

Speaker 4 (44:33):
Your dog eats poop.

Speaker 1 (44:34):
I understand why you don't, yeah?
Then John wakes up the nextmorning.
We see the dog running aroundthe counter.
It's all, I gotta go, he givesa fucking cereal.
John feeds the fucking dogcereal.
Hey, Helen, maybe get some dogfood for the dog too.

Speaker 2 (44:50):
Yeah, you didn't think about that one, did you?

Speaker 3 (44:53):
You dead ass bitch.
Oh, I ain't got.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
Sorry, sorry to all the dead people out there.

Speaker 4 (45:04):
There's a Ouija board in here right now.
It'd be sliding around F you.

Speaker 1 (45:07):
Huh, I wonder, what that means.

Speaker 4 (45:10):
You get two responses .
One's ha ha ha, someone has asense of humor.
The other one I want to speakto the manager.

Speaker 2 (45:16):
My magic eight ball just said please take me back.

Speaker 1 (45:20):
So then John goes out and the dog sneaks in the car
with him.
Fuck, it's so cute was it?

Speaker 2 (45:26):
it came already potty trained and everything.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
She almost thought of everything well, my dog, like
Snake, like as soon as we gothim, like he never went in the
house, he just immediatelyalways knew to go outside and we
got him as a puppy.

Speaker 2 (45:38):
what's?
He never went in the house, hejust immediately always knew to
go outside.
What's it like to have a?

Speaker 4 (45:41):
smart dog.
Have you seen my dog?
He's not that smart.
Well, I had the same thing withZelda when I used to live at
home.
It's because I could just takeher out as often as she wanted
to.

Speaker 2 (45:49):
Did you name her after the old woman from Pet
Sematary?

Speaker 4 (45:52):
Zelda.
No, I did not.

Speaker 1 (45:56):
I wonder this guy who has a bunch of tattoos of
characters.

Speaker 4 (46:00):
I wonder who he named it after, just for clarity, I
don't really play.
I've never played those gamesreally.
I just wanted a nerdy name andI tried Umbreon at first, but
the girl I was dating she's likeI don't like that one.
And I just was naming names offand they went with Zelda Nice.
That's why Nice.
I mean Broly's name for the newpuppet we got is from Dragon
Ball.

Speaker 1 (46:18):
Z.
I hate posers, dude, don't you,jason?
Well, while gassing up his car.
A group of Russian gangstersled by Yosef Tarzoff, alfie
Allen aka.

Speaker 3 (46:32):
Theon Granger.

Speaker 1 (46:37):
I wonder if he still has it.
I mean he was pretty, I wonderif he still has it.
So they kind of I mean he waspretty.
Is he one of those people who'slike very into the role?

Speaker 2 (46:46):
I just his he has one of those faces where you just
want to see it explode, yeah.

Speaker 1 (46:52):
He's got like a really like.
It's like.
It reminds me of people that,like you know, like grew up, was
pretty popular in high school,got out of high school, started
doing drugs and it's like man.
I became a police officer butso they had a cost John and
failed to intimidate him intoselling his 1969 Boss 429
Mustang Badass car.

Speaker 4 (47:14):
Yeah right, I prefer the other car he gets afterwards
.

Speaker 1 (47:16):
I will say Camaro I will say Mustang, I do like
classic.
I will say I'm Camaro Mustang,I do like classic cars.
I hate that in this movie oneof my biggest issues with it he
doesn't get his car back.

Speaker 2 (47:25):
Yeah, that does suck.

Speaker 1 (47:27):
And it's just like he gets a random dog, but it's
like you got to at least getyour car back.

Speaker 4 (47:31):
That's why you got to come back for the sequel.

Speaker 1 (47:32):
My least favorite car he gets is when the Continental
gives him a car.
The Charger, don't give me thisnew shit.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
I really wanted him to drive the bat car, the car
with the bat in the window.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
Yeah, john goes to an airport to drive his car,
throwing the dog all over theplace in his car.

Speaker 4 (47:50):
The dog's not in the car at that point, was he not?
He went immediately.

Speaker 2 (47:52):
No, he was definitely in there.

Speaker 1 (47:53):
How else is it going to work?
He went from the gas station tothe airport.

Speaker 4 (47:56):
Well, if you look, they're supposed to be in now.
I was like, is the dog still inthere?
But the backseat doesn't havethe toys in there anymore.

Speaker 2 (48:04):
He just plasters through the window like Garfield
.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
I feel like it's funnier if the dog's in it.

Speaker 4 (48:09):
I love that Garfield reference from the live action
one.
I just got a mention with BillMurray.
I don't know why that cracks meup.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
It's great casting.

Speaker 3 (48:20):
It's perfect.
Casting it's perfect.

Speaker 1 (48:20):
And I feel like the whole point of this is that this
gives him the adrenaline thathe misses from being hit Anger
driving.
Well, I don't think it'sadrenaline he's seeking.

Speaker 4 (48:27):
He's just like angry.
That because, again, this ismore that interpretation of what
you think.
The way I see it, it's not.
He does.
He's not someone who wantsadrenaline.
He's not someone who wantsadrenaline.
He's someone who he's like do Iwant to die too, but I can't,
because it's like I think hewanted to die, but he's like I
can't take my own.

Speaker 1 (48:46):
Yeah, because he gets really close to driving into
the trucks.
But also personally, I thinkit's the adrenaline and I think
I do too because a lot of peoplewho like in the military, they
are adrenaline seeking and theycontinue doing those adrenaline
seeking activities after youknow trauma.

Speaker 4 (49:02):
Yeah, I just think he also was like how much of a
like a anchor to that world hewas.
He's like well, now I got outof the world for her, do I go
back?
I don't want to go back, but Iwant to go fast.
I want to fast and Dom, youknow you got there, you need a
family.

Speaker 1 (49:20):
I can tell it's like I see that you're living about,
like you know, about a tenth ofa mile at a time and I live a
quarter mile at a time you gottaup those numbers, brother.
Wall Street coming in here sothat night the Russians break
into John's home, assault himand uh they pat his dog real
hard they fucking

Speaker 4 (49:39):
hit that dog in the head and I'm filled with bitches
she was leaving to go getcoffee for us and I was holding
on to Broly and she's like go todad Broly, because he's about
to cry, and I was alreadytearing up.
I was like shut up dad, andthen and he twisted his head off
.

Speaker 1 (49:55):
I didn't say the worst part and then they steal
his car.
Do anything but steal the car,this fucking idiot?
Yeah, I mean this is likewhenever I drive on the road and
someone does something dumb andanybody's like flick them off
and I'm like we don't know whatthey do for a living.

(50:17):
You don't like following themhome.
It could be a John Wicksituation.

Speaker 4 (50:22):
You know I had to explain that to her.
She's like getting angry atthem.
I said don't do that.
She's like why.
I said it's a dude.
She's like I don't care, I'llfight him.

Speaker 3 (50:29):
I was like the thing is, you won't fight him.

Speaker 4 (50:32):
There's a movie called Unhinged.
Is that the you about did it?

Speaker 1 (50:35):
You about did it?

Speaker 4 (50:35):
Yeah, because I looked at you and she was like,
well, yeah, I'll fight him, Idon't care.
I said that's a man in there.
The thing is, I'm with you.
You're not going to fight him,I'm going to have to fight them,
and I'm not thinking I'm backyet it's like you know, my knees
, Crazy legs coming at you.

Speaker 1 (50:51):
There's potential that I I was like.

Speaker 4 (50:54):
I'm a weak boy.
I've never been in a fight inmy life.
Either I'll get my ass kickedor I'll end up killing them.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
I don't know which side it'll be.
So John Wick wakes up andburies his fucking cute-ass
goddamn dog, and I'm ready tokill.

Speaker 4 (51:09):
Think about that scene he buries his dog, then he
unburies his old life becausehe breaks that cement.
I mean, just thought about that.

Speaker 2 (51:15):
Yeah, you know, only 20% of people bury their dogs in
the backyard.
I tried to do it to our lastdog that died and everyone hated
it why?
So, we didn't because I thoughtthat's what you did.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
You had to bury him pretty far too you gotta go.

Speaker 2 (51:27):
Yeah, I went like a foot deep oh well, that's
terrible, that's awful.
Yeah, we didn't do it.
It's gonna smell in yourbackyard, your kids.

Speaker 1 (51:37):
So Yosef takes the Mustang to a chop shop to remove
its identifying details.
But the shop owner, aureliolove John Lozano, he's the best
recognizes it and refusesservice, punches the shit out of
Yosef and tells them to killhim or get out.
I love it because they'repulling a gun out and he's like
come on, do it.

Speaker 3 (51:55):
It's the best in action movies, when people do it
.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
Oh yeah, I'm ready to die do it, baby.

Speaker 4 (51:59):
I thought it was over the top, but like as you could
sit here and think I could seehim being like, if I don't, if
something happens, is like ifJohn gets mad at me, I'm gonna
die anyway so he's way worsethan you.

Speaker 1 (52:09):
Yeah, so he either fucking do it or just get out,
because I don't know who it'sgonna be, either way, if John
gets pissed, yeah, so Aurelioinforms John that Yosef is the
son of Viggo Tarsov, the boss ofNew York.
City's Russia Mafia.
Let's see what it is.
I love him.
He's so good.
He's great.
He really is.
He's great as a villain.

(52:32):
You don't want to die, yeah,Because you're just like.
I'm sure he does a lot ofshitty things, but the whole
time I'm like man.
The guy seems down to play ball.

Speaker 4 (52:42):
He just doesn't want his son to die which?

Speaker 1 (52:43):
is understandable.
He really wishes his son didn'tdo this and he doesn't hate
John Wick.
He's just like I'm a bad guy.
I have to do my bad guy stuff,john, you've unleashed the force
of nature.
Well, he beat the crap out ofand stuff.

Speaker 4 (52:56):
I thought that was real because, like punching
someone, either it's on theactor who did it, like Theon,
whatever his name is.
Alfie, alfie, alfon Somethinglike that Him, like I don't know
if they told him that likeleaning into it, throwing up
after just chugged.
I was like that's real, becausewhen you just get sucker
punched, really especially Gotthe old man strength and you're

(53:17):
not anticipating it.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
Yeah, yeah, I'll be watching.
So, upon learning of his son'sactions from Aurelio, vigo
berates and punches oh fuck, Iforgot, I love it Because Vigo
calls Aurelio and he's like whydid you punch my son?

Speaker 3 (53:34):
He stole John Wick's car and killed his dog and he
just goes oh.
Hangs up the phone.
It's just like that world.

Speaker 4 (53:42):
I thought I was gonna kill you, aurelio, but now, I
think, you.
I think you did the right thing.
Yes, that's exactly what I said.

Speaker 1 (53:48):
I was like it's just like just fucking stuntman or I
guess it wasn't a stuntman thatwrote it, but just like whoever
wrote?
It was just like I know movies.

Speaker 4 (53:57):
It's building it in as he is, like he's the
boogeyman Because you don't knowhim.

Speaker 2 (54:00):
He just signed his death certificate, yeah.

Speaker 1 (54:02):
So yeah, upon learning of the actions of his
son, aurelio Vigo from AurelioVigo berates and punches Yosef
for incurring John's wrath hereveals John was once a hitman
in his employee and was renownedand feared in the criminal
underworld as the Baba Yaga.
Baba Yaga, baba Yaga, Aruthless, relentless man of
focus, commitment and sure will.
He's the man you send to killthe fucking boogeyman I love it.

(54:27):
He's not the boogeyman and hekilled three men with a pencil.

Speaker 2 (54:32):
Yes, yeah, the pen is mightier than the sword.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
The pencil is just like a knife, but just wood.

Speaker 4 (54:38):
But the thing is is like you think about it, like
you can't, obviously becauseit's yeah, it's just going to go
.
You could easily stab peoplewithout juggling Well it's one
of those things of like you usea pencil Well, not anymore, but
you use a pencil all the time.
You never think of like I couldkill someone, but you don't.

Speaker 2 (54:51):
It's an everyday thing I used the pencil in
school.

Speaker 1 (54:55):
There was like that one time I got I could stab this
in someone's eye.
Hey, jason, I think you need togo home.
No, why are you holding threepencils right now?
He's Wolverine.

Speaker 2 (55:07):
If they would have shown this pencil kill it may,
Would you think it would havebeen better than the Joker
pencil kill?

Speaker 4 (55:13):
Oh, it happens in the second one, it Second one.
I think it's the second oneReally yeah he brings it back.

Speaker 1 (55:18):
Either the second or the third one.
Yeah, it's the number twopencil.
The third one's all the knifeshit.

Speaker 4 (55:23):
Well, there's a scene where he kills someone with a
pencil, and I think it was thethird one.

Speaker 1 (55:27):
I just want to say I think probably my favorite
action sequence in all themovies is the beginning of John
Wick 3 with the knives and thehorse shit.

Speaker 4 (55:35):
Oh, that was so good.
It was such With those horsesin it.
Yes, he uses a horse to fightwith.

Speaker 1 (55:42):
Yeah, it is Horse, doesn't Jason?
Horse doesn't die.
Aww, I'm sorry, buddy.
What's wrong with y'all?
Dude?
He has a thing with horses, man.
He brings it up constantly.
If horses are brought up, hewants to see them die.

Speaker 4 (55:53):
You know actually.

Speaker 1 (55:55):
I just like seeing a good horse death and I've owned
four horses it's like you likewatching car crashes same thing.
I've cried when horses havedied.

Speaker 4 (56:03):
He laughs when horses die you do the same thing when
dogs die or children die oh,dude, we were watching an
episode of poker.

Speaker 1 (56:11):
Face is like the newest one and it starts off
with kids, right, and I'm likeholy shit, are we about to
investigate a kid killinganother?
And I'm like, holy shit, are weabout to investigate a kid
killing another kid?
I'm not going to put that outthere, for you.

Speaker 4 (56:25):
It was a little disappointing.

Speaker 3 (56:26):
That's the next one we need to watch.

Speaker 4 (56:28):
Okay, so we got to keep going.

Speaker 1 (56:29):
So, after John fell in love with Helen, a civilian
Vigo gave him a seeminglyimpossible task to earn his
freedom, and he succeeded.
And to earn his freedom, and hesucceeded.
And what I love is like, whileall this is happening, right,
you got John Wick.
He's going into his basement.
He's like hitting the concretethe music's kind of like
swelling a little bit, but alsojust the sound of the

(56:52):
sledgehammer hitting the cement.
It kind of reminds me of likeIron man, right, yes?

Speaker 3 (56:56):
The music's swelling.
He's hitting it like dinkbuilding a suit, except it
sounds cooler than dink Badass.

Speaker 1 (57:02):
But yeah, we see him.
John recovers a concealed stashfrom his former career that
includes weapons and gold coinsLike Chuck E Cheese coins.
Yeah, viggo calls John.
He rejects Viggo's attempt tomake amends and kills the hit
squad, subsequently sent hishome.
So because, yeah, he like callsand he's like maybe we don't do

(57:22):
it, and he's like just hangs upessentially, and then like
immediately, they tell mayhem tolike send in your squad.
It's like how many everybody howmany you got and then like this
is a, this is probably it'sreally tough, because I love
this fight scene and I rememberbeing tough because I love this
fight scene and I remember beingin theater.
I watched this alone in theater, there's like one other person.

Speaker 2 (57:44):
Yeah, you can't masturbate with someone sitting
next to you.
I know it sucks.
I'm like we do it all the time.

Speaker 1 (57:48):
But then I looked over and he was masturbating.
I said, do you want to, like,sit next to each other?
But yeah, just because he comesin and we still don't know,
like what he's capable of, right.
And then it's dark and we seepeople coming in.
We see the footsteps of thepeople walking up the gravel and

(58:08):
we know that he knows thatthey're coming.
And then he comes in and justimmediately like pop, pop.
And it's like, oh shit, he'sgood at this, yes.
And then you're like what typeof is this is going to be a
shooting thing, like some combat, and you're like he's fighting
with the guns, hand-to-handcombat, close up, and it's like,
so this is what good action isyeah, he's like the no look,

(58:33):
shoot proof, like when the guypops around the wall, holy fuck.
And I think probably my favoritepart of this whole action scene
and why I think it might be myfavorite of the movie, is the
knife scene.
Oh yeah, when it gets close toclose and the guy and they're
struggling.

Speaker 2 (58:46):
And.

Speaker 1 (58:46):
I'm just like.
I specifically remember sittingin my chair in the theater and
just like I'm like ow, I'msqueezing.

Speaker 3 (58:57):
This movie fucking goes.

Speaker 1 (58:59):
We're 20 minutes in and I'm like best movie ever.

Speaker 4 (59:02):
I think that's why I love John Wick.
It set a new standard for me.
It's like this is like you saidgood action.

Speaker 1 (59:09):
It's just like because they're fighting and
it's close, and then like theknife's going towards John,
knife's going towards the badguy, knife's going towards John.
I'm like's he gonna stab likethey fall to the ground and then
he gets on top of him and I'mjust like, oh, he's gonna push
it in.
No, he's like hammer it thenail in.
I'm like it's like he hammeredthe concrete.
Well, I saw it fun.

(59:29):
The scene starts with hammeringconcrete and then he hammers a
knife into a fucking guy.

Speaker 4 (59:34):
He's now back.

Speaker 2 (59:36):
God, the most grueling I remember, like Saving
Private Ryan, that slow knifedeath.

Speaker 1 (59:42):
I think in the entire world if you bring up a knife
death scene in just to anybody,people are going to be like did
you see Saving Private?
Ryan, it's the most iconicknife scene.

Speaker 3 (59:53):
The slow piercing.

Speaker 1 (59:55):
That, and Crocodile Dundee, the second most famous
knife scene.
That's not a knife this is aknife okay, come on, it's the
only other yeah, that sequel,that was like what 10 years
later?
Yeah, it's like, wow, this guyaged a lot, um, oh, so good.
But then the doorbell rings andit's like and we see the
flashing lights in his house.

(01:00:15):
So fucking beautiful oh, you'relike John with the screw, and
then fucking Jimmy comes up andhe's like hey, John, working
again, you killed a bunch ofpeople.
No, I'm just sorting some stuffout.

Speaker 4 (01:00:26):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
It's just so like, ah , yeah that's the point where
you realize that even the copsare on his side and you're like
nobody can stop this man.

Speaker 4 (01:00:36):
It shows this like network that they have
established for this.
Well, for me.

Speaker 1 (01:00:40):
I'm still to the point where it's like shit, did
cops try to come and stop himand killed every cop in town and
they're like Jimmy's like I gotyou back it's more of the that.

Speaker 4 (01:00:49):
You know that world.
I see it as like this syndicatehas built a world because
you're gonna need cops.

Speaker 1 (01:00:55):
We just haven't quite like we haven't got there yet,
so we just we don't knowanything.
It's just like it's our firsthint, but at the same time it's
like maybe cops are just scaredof the guy, maybe.

Speaker 4 (01:01:04):
It's just more of adding like who is this guy?
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:01:07):
And then, oh, this is , I'm getting fucking fired up,
because then he makes a phonecall after the dopest hell fight
Wick, calls for a dinnerreservation for 12 and grabs
some gold coins.
And it's just like what are wetalking about?
And this dope ass guy with hislittle hat comes in and a group
of people come and clean and hepays them in gold to clean up 12
of them, one for every personto clean up.

(01:01:30):
I love the gold.
It's just like one coin justmeans a favor.
Essentially, I feel like everytime you give a gold coin, it's
like someone's just like allright, that works, it's a favor.
Hell yeah, it's like I feellike the gold means nothing.
It's just a symbol.
It's not actually money, eventhough I know they melt it down
and probably pay for stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:01:46):
It also gets you into places that you can't get into
without them.

Speaker 1 (01:01:51):
Yeah, and I do know that they explain it more in the
other ones.
But it's just like when you'rewatching it now you're like oh
so gold coins like a type ofpayment or some sort of yeah,
they establish their owncurrency, which is cool.

Speaker 4 (01:02:02):
When you do that, that's cool.
It's pirates.

Speaker 1 (01:02:04):
It also seems like here's a symbol of you doing a
favor for me or something likethat.
Yeah, but yeah, it's great.
Vigo puts a two million dollarbounty on John and enlists
John's former mentor, marcus, tokill him, and Marcus agrees and
we're like no.

Speaker 2 (01:02:17):
William Dafoe.

Speaker 1 (01:02:18):
Why, william Dafoe, you're our favorite actors and
he sends his son to a nightclubcalled the Red Circle to lure
John there.
John lodges at the Continental,a luxurious hotel that serves
as neutral ground for theunderworld and where conducting
criminal business is forbidden.

(01:02:38):
Lance Riddick baby RIP.
Miss ya Been watching you since, like Fringe.
Even though I know he's in theWire, which was before Fringe, I
kind of didn't realize he wasalso the.

Speaker 4 (01:02:46):
I need to watch that too.
He's the voice in Destiny,which I got into for a while.
Yeah, he was.

Speaker 1 (01:02:51):
Zavala oh, but he's got like the best voice.
Oh yeah, so fucking fantasticin these movies.
Just love this hotel.
It looks so cozy.
I think it looks better.

Speaker 4 (01:03:02):
I didn't realize.
I was like oh, it's not as likecause to me in the next one.
I don't know if they change ita little bit or maybe explore it
.
I feel like they get more ofthat.
I don't know how to describethe world of, like John Wick's,
this underground, like refinedclassic, like it's modern
classic.
I don't know how it is.

Speaker 1 (01:03:19):
It just it's like a it's a hotel.
Frank Sinatra.

Speaker 4 (01:03:22):
It just feels like it's it's own theme and style
and.
I feel like they really leanedinto it more and it works a lot
better.
Because when I was watching itdoesn't look as good as it did
in the other movies.
Because it feels like it's it'slike classic architecture, but
still there and modernized, butnot to like.

(01:03:43):
It's flashy, yeah it's.
It's a modern thing if we stillhad like that good architecture
that we used to do, yeah, andtaking it and putting modern
twist on it.

Speaker 1 (01:03:51):
Like it's modern architecture with classic and I
wish I could just put like acoin down and be like all right,
I'm staying for a couple daysat this hotel.
It's like here's a quarter downand be like all right, I'm
staying for a couple of days atthis hotel and it's like here's
a quarter.

Speaker 2 (01:04:00):
I'll be here for a couple of days, sir.
Also, do you have a doctor?

Speaker 1 (01:04:02):
on board.
Um, so we see we meet Winston.
Love Winston, love this guy.
Uh, the hotel's owner andJohn's old friend.
Yes, if John's back, winstontells him, just dipping a toe
back into the business will pullhim back in.
I think we're getting close tothe point of the movie here,

(01:04:25):
guys.
So John and a bartender talk.
Obviously they used to bone afight.

Speaker 2 (01:04:29):
She's like hey, I heard, you're single.

Speaker 4 (01:04:32):
Yeah, it was only a few days ago.
It's like, hey, I heard yourwife was weak and couldn't
handle cancer.
You know tattoos?
Does she have tattoos?
Yeah, I wouldn't die fromcancer.

Speaker 1 (01:04:42):
Yeah, but yeah.
And then she says oh, firstJohn Wick asked Winston for the
location to where Yosef is andhe's like I can't conduct
business on this ground.
And then he goes talks to thislady and she has.
She says he looks vulnerablefor the first time he's never
seen him have that look.
And he then is handed a napkinwith this drink that says the

(01:05:06):
red circle.
I said kiss on it.

Speaker 4 (01:05:09):
That's how I leave napkins for Jesse and off.

Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
he goes to the red circle.
So, john, he walks and fuckingloads baby.
Here's the thing.
The only thing that this movieneeds is all the lock and load
things in the other John Wicks.
They're so sick I don't know.
The second one, where he goesinto.
It's almost like a tailor.
Oh yeah, that's where he getsthe bulletproof suit.

(01:05:36):
And then they also give him allthese guns and it's like what
else would you be needing?
And he's like oh, I think Ineed like a wristwatch.
And he pulls out this giant assshotgun or something.
Yeah, they always havedifferent terms for it.
Yeah, and it's so fantastic.

Speaker 4 (01:05:46):
I think John Wick 2 is when he started, because his
trainer started becoming Terrantactical.

Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
Yeah, and I was like it's because before he goes to
that rave he goes in and getsall these guns and it's great.

Speaker 4 (01:06:00):
Well, I'll just say, because I was getting into guns
and he started using this themedgun I think it was in the
second or third one and I wasfollowing it I was like I really
want that pistol because I lovethe look of it.
It was great.
And then I looked it up and itwas a competition gun.
And those competition guns werelike $2,500.
I was like, okay, gun, oh, andthose competition guns were like
$2,500.

Speaker 3 (01:06:19):
Okay, well, that's not my.

Speaker 4 (01:06:19):
Let me look at the airsoft version of it.

Speaker 1 (01:06:22):
I think it's weird that, like you know, like you
keep saying that you're intoguns, but you brought them all
here with you.
It's so weird the little 22s.
Right now they're not like thatmuch when you brought it like a
giant shotgun that shootsflaming bullets to a podcast,
but that's weird yeah, hell,yeah, dude, you gotta watch John
Wick 4, bro you gotta watch allthe other ones.

Speaker 4 (01:06:41):
They're so good they are good.

Speaker 1 (01:06:43):
Yeah, so we see Yosef having a grand old time at the
red circle just swimming arounddrinking champagne with girls.
The lighting looks fantastic.
I love it.

Speaker 4 (01:06:54):
Best day of his life everything is like it just feels
real yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:06:59):
And then, uh, john, he goes to the red circle and
kevin nash tells him uh, thereare 60 bodyguards inside.
Uh, the way he does it isbecause he puts a gun to his
head, and the only reason hedoesn't kill him, I feel like,
is because kevin was like kevinnash he's great, used to be a
wrestler.

Speaker 3 (01:07:14):
Nwo, baby, let's go too sweet okay, I'll stop
because he asked, he's likeyou've lost weight 60 pounds
that was him telling.

Speaker 1 (01:07:22):
I was like hey, I told you how many you earn here,
can I go?

Speaker 3 (01:07:26):
is that what that was ?

Speaker 1 (01:07:27):
I didn't know that.
Yeah, 60 bodyguards.

Speaker 4 (01:07:29):
I thought he was just like oh, I didn't know, that
was like a little weird.
I thought it was just like abanter that knew each other the
way they do the captions for thelanguage and they put emphasis
on certain words.

Speaker 1 (01:07:39):
I did mean to bring it up because they it's so good,
like when they put boogeyman,it's like a special caption and
certain words that have moreemphasis.

Speaker 4 (01:07:46):
Like I was, like this is the best way to do foreign
captions and add like make youfeel more of the impact of what
it does.

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
I feel like best way I've ever.
Tarantino's done that in someof his films before.
So John infiltrates Red Circle,gets info for Yosef's location
from one of his friends and thenkills him.
It's time to let the fun begin,as Obi-Wan says.

Speaker 2 (01:08:09):
This is one of the best action sequences ever.

Speaker 1 (01:08:12):
Yeah, it's great and it's just like even that first
death.
I was like, oh shit, I forgothow brutal it was yeah, because
he's slamming his head and stuffon the counter and I'm like
damn, I hope I never get my headslammed onto a counter Me too.
So at first he sneaks aroundsilently killing bodyguards.
Then his cover is blown and heis face to face with Yosef.
But he is able to escapefurther into the club.

(01:08:33):
All the nightclub action rules.
It's so good and I love that.
He's running around killingpeople in the nightclub and
people are just like Well youknow how loud it is, and like
Wow, did that guy just get hisneck broken Cool.

Speaker 4 (01:08:49):
Well, there's another nightclub scene and there's one
in the second one, but it's notas bad.
And then there's one in thefourth one.
The fourth one.

Speaker 3 (01:08:56):
It's so fucking good.

Speaker 2 (01:09:00):
Is it like the scene from Kingsman in the church?
No, nothing is that was areally good.

Speaker 3 (01:09:05):
That is like another top tier of Kingsman.

Speaker 4 (01:09:09):
That was my favorite scene, just because of how good
the choreographed action was andalso just the camera work.

Speaker 1 (01:09:14):
And the camera flying around was pretty crazy.
Yeah, I remember flying around,it was pretty crazy.
Yeah, I remember when I waswatching I was like this is a
fun movie.
And then that scene happens andI'm like this is what we're
fucking doing?

Speaker 4 (01:09:21):
Why don't we fight in churches more?
I just didn't expect it because, like you— and then they
release snakes Voldemort'snearby.

Speaker 2 (01:09:31):
Yes, parcel thought.

Speaker 1 (01:09:33):
I don't know.
So John's making his waythrough the club fighting,
shooting people in the chest andthen the head getting really
close, punching people, and thenall of a sudden, just like it's
like I love when he's likeclose up fighting and then like
he like catches their arm andthen he just like somehow like
moves his arm like right undertheir head and like shoots them
and I'm like who the fuck thinksof this man?

Speaker 3 (01:09:54):
I?

Speaker 1 (01:09:54):
think when you're wrestling, you do those grapples
.

Speaker 4 (01:09:57):
Because that's the thing.
I don't remember exactly whathis specific style of martial
arts he was taking, but it'sabout grappling, and when you
grapple up top and your handsare locking, you can learn to
make that.
That's why it's called Kung Fu.
Another thing I really likeabout when you watch John Wick
is something that I don't knowhow true it is, but it makes
sense is the double tap ortriple tap method Two in the

(01:10:20):
chest, one in the head to takehim out.

Speaker 1 (01:10:22):
Yeah, I thought he did it more in this movie, but
they definitely do it more inCollateral than in John Wick.

Speaker 4 (01:10:27):
They only show it more.
I think it's because heunderstands he's got to conserve
a little more ammo, but healways makes sure that someone
you watch.

Speaker 1 (01:10:33):
When he does it, you can see.

Speaker 4 (01:10:34):
Keanu.
He sees the guy drop because hewaits after the double shot.
You see that delay instead ofcontinuing it to try and hit it.
He knows the drop happensbecause they're down on the
ground and he has that extramoment to shoot their head
because it's an easier target.
That's such good choreographyto show, and just everyone, how

(01:10:55):
well they execute the scenes.

Speaker 1 (01:10:57):
My favorite thing is whenever he comes in and like
someone's like about to pull onhim fast and I think they're
going to outdo him like to thegun.
So he shoots their leg firstand then he goes for like they
kneel and then he shoots thehead and it's like cool, it's
like oh, you may be quicker onthe draw Like he.

Speaker 4 (01:11:13):
it's like he knows how to compensate for if he
doesn't have the faster draw.
He knows how to cripple them intime.
Yeah Cause you can learn to dothat too, if you.
Obviously it's really hard toactually do that in real life,
but it's.

Speaker 1 (01:11:24):
it's John Wick, oh and then, uh, my second hammer,
the knife, kill it's the one.

Speaker 4 (01:11:31):
So he goes into a room and he's fighting a guy and
he's fighting, and he'sfighting, and then he shoots him
and he's out of bullets, andthen you're like, and it's just
like, fun well, that's anotherthing that this movie really
introduced reloading, andrunning out of ammo you really
like that was the best partabout when I watch this like he,
because you know, when youwatch action movies, at some

(01:11:52):
point you're like you would beout of ammo right now.
This one, I feel like you'relike if you count the bullets
you're pretty close and accurate.

Speaker 1 (01:11:58):
You know, I was actually thinking about that
when I was watching it.
I was like, oh yeah, I thinkthat people used to just didn't
think that loading guns is cool,yeah, but if you do it really
fast and something I love is gunnoises I don't know if you know
this.
When people are like messing,cleaning guns, like loading guns
, Like in Last of Us, myfavorite thing when I see a

(01:12:18):
workbench in Last of Us, andthat's where you go and you
upgrade your gun and like theytake it apart and you got all
these gun noises.
Like I started playing Last ofUs 2 with my wife so she could
watch it.
And then she's like it's likewhen's there a workbench?
I know that's like one of yourfavorite things.

Speaker 2 (01:12:33):
And then, like she's like I turn around I'm like oh,
my god there's a workbench, justlike bolt over to it just to
hear that it is very satisfyingbecause everything fits in the
place.

Speaker 4 (01:12:43):
So precisely, it's so fun anytime, like when I got I
got a new gun last year, a canikthat was like had a Terran
tactical coin that came with it,and I forget about, like when
you're just racking it.
I was like I don't know why,but I love that sound.

Speaker 3 (01:12:58):
It's wild, it's wild.

Speaker 2 (01:13:00):
Love it.
You get the.
My friend had a 357 that hejust bought and I just kept
doing the chamber, the, the, thething and like slapping it back
in and Number one sound.

Speaker 4 (01:13:11):
I know Tyler is on the same one, but because of all
the old World War II Call ofDuty games, the M1 Garand sound.

Speaker 2 (01:13:17):
Oh, when that's empty .
Yes, love that.

Speaker 4 (01:13:20):
I always wanted one of those guns, just because of
that.
It's just so something about it.
Hell yeah, dude, satisfying.

Speaker 3 (01:13:25):
Yeah, all right.

Speaker 1 (01:13:27):
So Yosef is able to drive off in the chaos and
escape while John is beingattacked.
He loses his gun and has tohave a hand-to-hand combat where
he is thrown off a second floor, where he then escapes the Red
Circle and goes back to theContinental to tend to his
wounds.
Lance Reddick sets him up witha doctor and a drink.

Speaker 4 (01:13:46):
I was going to ask so in that moment because I don't.
I was trying to explain it toher because, you know, he
tackles that one guy to theground, he pulls the gun out and
he has it at um Alfie but, hedoesn't shoot, he just looks
down and shoots the other guy.
What do you think he was doingin that moment?
Do you think he was like tryingto instill fear or be like I'm
coming for you, you can't stopme.

Speaker 1 (01:14:05):
I think what he was thinking was um man, later on
I'm gonna have him cornered andI'm just going to walk up and
he's going to say something andI'm going to shoot him, and then
I'm going to walk away and it'sgoing to.

Speaker 4 (01:14:20):
He's about being the aura farming.
No, I do not Delayedgratification.

Speaker 1 (01:14:24):
I think he, I think a part of him wanted, he wanted
to be closer.
Okay, he wanted to be right inhis face, in his face.

Speaker 4 (01:14:29):
You think he wanted to feel like you couldn't stop
me.
I want you to think he's likethis is the first time I'm doing
that.
You can't stop me.
Yeah, Like they're in a hideoutand he hunts them down.

Speaker 1 (01:14:39):
I think he wanted to kill everybody and then kill him
.
Yeah, I think like if he didshoot him, he'd shoot him in the
leg, both legs and arms.
Also, I love whenever he goesin the continental.
He's injured.
He's like limping in like LanceReddick does not change the way
he talks.
It's just one of the fun itreally like helps you like build

(01:15:00):
like what this world is.
It's like he sees this probably20 times a day.

Speaker 4 (01:15:04):
You know, I just saw someone like complaint was like
it just seems like all theassassins are only in New York
and I'm, like you do realizeit's a hub of like getting to
around the world because they'renot just for New York.
I was like New York is probablya central point of this because
it's fucking New York alsoanybody that has that complaint.

Speaker 1 (01:15:23):
New York City is just a fucking rad place to have
action movies becauseeverything's on top of each
other obviously like Sp becauseit's so sprawled out.

Speaker 3 (01:15:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:15:38):
And so you have to get like in the movie Heat.
It's like all right, they haveto run so much before they get
to the big action scene whereit's like in the middle of an
intersection you guys got towatch it.

Speaker 4 (01:15:48):
I started it and then I fell asleep.
I started it and then I fellasleep.
I shouldn't have tried to startit at like 2 o'clock in the
morning.

Speaker 1 (01:15:52):
It's okay.
It is a slower film.

Speaker 4 (01:15:55):
I didn't realize that when I started at 2 am I was
like I have got to go back tothis later.

Speaker 1 (01:16:00):
Robert De Niro fucking is reading a book of
medals.

Speaker 4 (01:16:03):
God, it's amazing that scene where the girl comes
up to drive and flirt with him.

Speaker 1 (01:16:07):
I was like hey lady, why are you so interested in
what I'm reading?

Speaker 4 (01:16:10):
And then, like she's, like he's, like, oh, I'm sorry
and I was like dude.
No, you were a dick yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:16:14):
Why does anybody fall in love with anybody in that
movie?

Speaker 1 (01:16:17):
So a doctor tells him to keep it easy because he's
got like 18 stitches in his side, and says if he can't take it
easy, take these, marcus.
He's setting up his sniperrifle.
We're like no, marcus, you're.

Speaker 3 (01:16:32):
William.

Speaker 1 (01:16:32):
Dafoe, we like you Making us think that you'll kill
John, but as John is restingfun fact about this this is
Keanu Reeves' idea to have himin his underwear.
He's like.
He's like I want to feel.
It's like I've never reallyseen a dope action scene where
nobody's in their underwear, andalso I want him to feel even

(01:16:52):
more vulnerable than he alreadyis.

Speaker 4 (01:16:54):
Like dude, you're already as vulnerable as someone
can be.
It makes you feel more realwith it, because it's like, yeah
, that's what you do to getcomfortable.
It's like damn, why didn't?

Speaker 1 (01:17:02):
John, go to sleep in a three-piece tux, though I will
say change your shirt, john.
Yeah, you just showed her whereyour wounds are.
Oh, okay, I thought you meantwhen he was in the beginning
like he's covered in dog bloodor whatever.
So as John is resting gettingsome Zs, a hit woman, Miss
Perkins, sneaks into his room.

(01:17:22):
Marcus sees, perkins Calls hima pussy.
Yeah, really, really.
Marcus sees this and, from anadjacent building, fires a
warning shot to alert John, whowakes up and subdues her.
Love it.
It's like the punching of thewound is the most brutal part.
But what I like about thisfight is that you know it's like
male versus female.
There's a lot more likegrappling and rolling and her

(01:17:44):
using her body weight to throwthem around, versus more of like
John wick and like fighting.
All the dudes are like a lotmore arm shit you know trying to
overpower.
Each other's like arms and she'sjust like wrapping herself
around him and he's trying notto touch her boobs yeah, sorry
too soon too soon, then she'slike I can touch yours um

(01:18:04):
yeah, they have their wholefight.
It's pretty great.
It's just uh, um, we just hadan amazing nightclub fight and
then it immediately goes intothis and I feel like the um it,
we just had an amazing nightclubfight and then it immediately
goes into this and I feel likeit's a little lessened this
fight because of the two insanefights we had before this.

Speaker 4 (01:18:18):
Well, you could attribute that to being that
he's not going to kill herbecause it's continental ground,
and that's another thing theybuild up in there.

Speaker 1 (01:18:26):
Well, I feel like you can kill her if she attacks
first.

Speaker 4 (01:18:28):
No, even he didn't do it, because that means Marcus
could have just shot her.
But even Marcus knows you don'tdo anything like that on the
continental ground.

Speaker 1 (01:18:34):
Sure, it seemed like he was going to shoot her.
He just never had the shot.

Speaker 4 (01:18:37):
He saw her head, he could have shot her.
You saw how good of a shot heis.

Speaker 1 (01:18:40):
Yeah, william Defoe is like, I want John to have a
little bit of fun.
He just likes to watch.
But yeah, he was jerking off,that was a J-O movement.

Speaker 3 (01:18:55):
That's why.

Speaker 1 (01:18:56):
Jason is crying but yeah, so he kind of beats her
and she's like trying to crawlout of the room.
He's like not so fucking fast.
And then Perkins reveals Viggohas doubled the bounty for her
to kill John in the hotel andhas concealed a high value stash
in a church.
John hires another hitman,harry, who just comes out and is
like everything alright, john.

Speaker 4 (01:19:17):
I love it.
It's so much world building andit's so good.

Speaker 1 (01:19:21):
And it sucks because you know Harry decides like yeah
, I'll watch her for you.
Ties her to a chair, handcuffsher essentially and she like
breaks her thumb or dislocatesit and pulls out and then kills
Harry.

Speaker 4 (01:19:31):
She said I didn't know.

Speaker 1 (01:19:32):
Harry a lot, but I fucking loved Harry.

Speaker 4 (01:19:33):
I just love his little slacks he had on.
Yeah, she told me she's like,it's just like how you do with
your thumb.
I was like she dislocated itjust because I can bend my thumb
like that, Don't mean I'mgetting through like freaking.
I just got hitchhiker thumb,I'm not getting through
handcuffs.

Speaker 1 (01:19:46):
Honestly, when they show her like I was like damn,
was that the hardest thing forme to watch the whole movie,
it's just the sound for it.
So at the church, john destroysVigo's cache of cash and
extensive blackmail material.
He just walks in andimmediately shoots a priest,
yeah.
And then, like three otherpeople who almost look like
they're drug dealers, heimmediately shoots it.

(01:20:07):
There's this old woman in oneof the pews and she literally
does not flinch.

Speaker 4 (01:20:15):
She just keeps sitting there praying.

Speaker 2 (01:20:17):
I wouldn't either man , Just another day.

Speaker 1 (01:20:18):
Her prayer went from like please cure my old age, to
please don't let me get shot.

Speaker 4 (01:20:24):
It's like well, here's your answer.
I'm going to cure you of yourold age.

Speaker 1 (01:20:27):
Yeah, and I love that there's so much money in this
little, because when they goback there it's almost like a
jail cell full of money andstuff.
The priest is like I can't openthis.

Speaker 2 (01:20:37):
He's gonna.

Speaker 1 (01:20:37):
Every church has one of those.
Yeah, that's probably true,especially a church that big.

Speaker 4 (01:20:41):
Yeah, usually there's little boys in there sometimes,
yeah sure.

Speaker 1 (01:20:46):
But what I love is like the priest is.
I don't know if you're readingthis situation, but I'm also
going to kill you.

Speaker 4 (01:20:53):
Well, he killed the other guy and he's like, yeah,
yeah, and it's just like this isthe perfect role for Keanu.

Speaker 1 (01:20:57):
Yeah, it really is, but I love that.
Like he goes in there, there'sa ton of money and he's like
what are you going to do, spendall that?
And he's the second thing thatreminds me of the Dark Knight.

Speaker 2 (01:21:15):
Yeah, the mountain of money.

Speaker 3 (01:21:16):
There's three things.

Speaker 1 (01:21:16):
You got the Continental is the place for in
the Dark Knight Rises.
You got the pencil thing forDark Knight.
And now you have the burning apile of money, which is one of
the best parts of the DarkKnight when he's like on top of
the cash and he's sliding down.
It's like it burns it all.
It's like I'll burn my duckingin that shit.
That's great.
So when vigo arrives to assessthe damage, john assaults him

(01:21:38):
and his men but is hit wheneverone of the uh henchmen drives a
car into him, into another carand hits him his name is cruel,
by the way, he's the mainhenchman of the movie um.
And then he gets captured.
I love the gun he uses in this.
Just looks really cool You'retalking about so like in that
scene I don't know anythingabout guns.

Speaker 4 (01:21:56):
Oh yeah, I like that bull pup.
I think is what that style is.

Speaker 1 (01:21:59):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (01:21:59):
I love a little bull pup.
In this moment I'm like this iskind of the typical bad guy
moment.
Why didn't you just shoot himto get it over with?

Speaker 3 (01:22:08):
in.
It's a movie I know well.

Speaker 4 (01:22:10):
I try and sit here like in that moment it's like
this is cliche bad guy, youshould take care of him.
But then I also try and sayanything like why is he not?
He respects john?
Does he not want to incur thewrath of what would happen after
john?
Does he think you get him tostop?

Speaker 2 (01:22:21):
vigo rhymes with ego I think maybe like, because in
the beginning they talked abouthow john wick was, how they
built up their whole criminalenterprise so you think it's
respect, because he's like weliterally are here because of
him.
Maybe we're going to try to gethim to, because he just killed
everyone.
Maybe help get him to try torebuild it again.

Speaker 4 (01:22:38):
Well, maybe it could be also that they're like we
could see it as an asset, Likeif John's obviously back, let's
see if we could use him forlater.
Yeah, sure.

Speaker 1 (01:22:47):
So that he thinks he's got him.

Speaker 3 (01:22:51):
Yeah, and it's a cockiness thing, it's just like
he's like I got it.

Speaker 1 (01:22:56):
I did it, I'm going to be the one that kills John
Wick.

Speaker 2 (01:22:59):
And he's like, let's make it fun, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:23:01):
And also, you know like, even though this is like a
very good action movie, it haslike all the fucking tropes of
every action movie.
It's like just kill him.
He's right there.
But I think, like when you havescreenwriters that write action

(01:23:21):
movies, I think that they lovethat shit and I think that's why
it's always in all the actionmovies and plus, you know it's
new york city, the mob'severywhere, right.
I don't know if it's reallyactually.

Speaker 4 (01:23:31):
It's also like when you're trying to equate those
people who, like they, like tofeel power.
Like you said, ego yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:23:37):
I want to see like yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:23:38):
I did this and they're just like, oh, it's
going to be good.
And it's like, yeah, you thinkit's good because in reality,
how are you going to if itwasn't for Marcus?
And that leads into thatwhole's surrounded, and he's
like this little yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:23:53):
So John tells Vigo he will not stop until Yosef is
dead, because the puppy gave himhope and a chance not to be
alone in his grief.
Yeah, when Helen died I losteverything until that dog
arrived on my doorstep, a finalgift from my wife.
In that moment I received somesemblance of hope, an

(01:24:15):
opportunity to grieve unalone,and your son took that from me,
vigo.
Oh god, but he says it morelike oh god, but I was like it'd
been better if he was like ohgod well cause he was walking
out.
I was like over a fucking dogand then John Wick stole that
from me, killed that from me.
People keep asking if I'm backand I haven't really had an

(01:24:35):
answer, but now, yeah, I'mthinking I'm back.
So you can either hand overyour son or you can die
screaming along with him.
Love it, bro, I better put mylaptop over my crotch and then
immediately plastic bag over hishead.

Speaker 4 (01:24:53):
Put that put me down this is going to make it worse.

Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
Do you have a driver keeper you can put?

Speaker 4 (01:24:57):
over that yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:24:59):
Oh, but then immediately one of like, the
scariest things to ever happento anybody plastic bag over face
.
Damn man.
And the visual of a plastic bagover his face, because I've
seen it in so movies over thetime Just the open mouth.
It's horrible, scary.

Speaker 3 (01:25:15):
I don't think it ever bothers me.

Speaker 4 (01:25:17):
I don't think I don't have a strong claustrophobia
thing.

Speaker 3 (01:25:19):
It's just like a Sunday morning for Dakota.

Speaker 2 (01:25:20):
Yeah, like auto-erotic asphyxiation.

Speaker 1 (01:25:24):
That's how I start my day.
I just don't.

Speaker 4 (01:25:26):
That's what I always think.
Usually when they put a bagover them, it's a fucking
Walmart bag'm like.
Put your hands up that one.
You couldn't, because that wasthick that was thick yeah, thick
yeah, I do really love thescene.

Speaker 1 (01:25:39):
Obviously, it's like I don't know this scene is what
John Wick is.
It's like you got Keanu Reeves.
It's like I've been kind ofquiet this entire time.
I've been taking it easy on youguys.
But I just watched the DarkKnight.

Speaker 3 (01:25:54):
I know I think I'm back.

Speaker 4 (01:25:56):
I love also because when he goes over and gets the
truck pulled over and he's likewhoa, whoa, whoa because he's
freaked out.

Speaker 1 (01:26:04):
I feel like, yeah, yeah, let's get there, let's get
there, hold on.
So, yeah, plastic bags out.
It really looks like JohnWick's going to die.
John Wick's going to die, butyou know the movie's called John
Wick.
So Marcus again intervenes tosave John, who kills Krill and
threatens Viggo, oh, and thenhe's like run it, I've got to
get him dead and it's great.
But yeah, like you were saying,it's like he loves that, he

(01:26:24):
like shows up and it's like Iwish there was this like a scene
that they put in there, likeafter we see John Wick kill
everybody and like he runs outthe door.
He's got Viggo's like.
So what do y'all wanna like dofor dinner, since we kinda just
took out the most badass in theworld, and then, like I just
love he gets there and he's likedamn it cause he's like whoa,
whoa and I think it's thatmoment of realization.

(01:26:45):
I can't stop him.
I just love that he says likeshit it's.
It's so good, you feel the fearlike I cannot stop this
motherfucker.
And then I also love that hegets through.
He's like where's your son?
He's like damn it.
That actor really does a greatjob of just being like I lost, I
have to give up the location ofmy son, and he does.
He tells him that he's at asafe house and then I was like

(01:27:08):
it's well guarded, he's like itwon't matter it.
He's like it won't matter.
It was like John fucking Wick,everybody.

Speaker 4 (01:27:13):
I think it's also like in that moment of like,
well, why would he give up a son?
He's like well, I give up myson, I still have a chance to
get revenge, yeah, later.

Speaker 2 (01:27:21):
And we'll have more kids.

Speaker 1 (01:27:23):
I like we're going to get to.
But actually I think that hewas done.
He wasn't going to do anything.
It was Miss Perkins thatchanges it.
Oh, you're right.
You're right.
John attacks the safe house andkills Yosef.
But while all this is happening, I love like as John Wick's
getting there.
You see Yosef or Vigo is justsitting there.
He's like preparing hiscigarette.

Speaker 4 (01:27:43):
He's like because he knows his son's, literally in
the process I thought he waspreparing a blunt.

Speaker 1 (01:27:47):
He's in the process of his son dying right now and
he knows that his um and as theygo through, because one guy's
playing halo.
He's like shut the game off andlike john's just taking all his
guys with like a sniper and theneverybody's running out, and
then john, he shoots everybodyand then it's nothing but just,
uh, yosef, and then like likethese storage containers, metal

(01:28:08):
storage containers that are kindof blocking the sides of your
screen, and then yosef's justdown on the ground because he's
injured, like sitting kind of tothe right bottom, right of the
frame, and then you just seejohn wick just slowly coming up.
He looks magnificent in thesuit and the hair and he's kind
of beat up and he just simplywalks up and then, uh, he calls
like john wick, uh, a bitch orwhatever something like that and

(01:28:28):
they just shoot, go, shoots andthen walks away and like slowly
fades and it's like cinema.
You were thinking it like I loveit.

Speaker 4 (01:28:36):
It's not like a because you think this could be
towards the end.
Yeah, and it's such a quickmoment of like.
He just took everyone out soquickly at this base and he took
him out quickly.
There was no long monologue oranything like wow, he's not
really the like.
What is happening?
Are we almost done?

Speaker 1 (01:28:53):
No, there's more, yeah, and like, of course, he
like snipes out everybody andthe guards, he blows up their
getaway cars, which is great,yeah, and then you have Vigo's
like make the arrangements.
And it's like, fuck, his sondied.
So John Wick goes back to thehotel, whose manager gives him a
new car as an apology for MissPerkins.
Marcus meets with John andtells him it's time for him to

(01:29:16):
get out and just go home and tryto live a normal life.
It's like, can you?

Speaker 4 (01:29:21):
Nah, dude, he's like what do I know Because of hers?
What I knew, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:29:25):
I'd at least need another dog and I can't get.

Speaker 1 (01:29:29):
Yeah, they're not as common as you think.
And then, but while this ishappening, perkins witnesses
this and reveals Marcus'duplicity to Viggo, who has him
tortured and killed and, likeyou also like before, we see
like what happens to Marcus.
Viggo calls John to taunt himwith the details, drawing him

(01:29:49):
back to the city.
But yeah, it's just like yougot Marcus.
He's sitting there and he'spunching him and stuff.
You see that it's just like yougot Marcus.
He's sitting there and you'relike he's punching him and stuff
.
You see that there's like brassknucks, he's like putting his
hand in ice.
And then we see like they stabhis leg and Marcus is like I'm
going out my own terms Kills twoof the henchmen and then, like
kills them.
And then what I love is like hegoes like you know, good play

(01:30:15):
old friend.

Speaker 4 (01:30:16):
It's like, ah, if these guys weren't bad guys,
these all just be drinking in abar right now.
They're not bad guys.
They just get paid to do a job.

Speaker 1 (01:30:19):
We get paid to do jobs yeah, well, I mean yeah, no
, um, but yeah, so this is gonnadraw him back to the city.
John goes to marx's house tofind him dead.
But it's just like why?
Vigo, you could have been donewith Wick.
It was over Vigo.
Ego, that's all it is.
It's ego, shit man.

Speaker 4 (01:30:40):
I think it's because he would have been done.
But, like you said, perkinscame in and told him about the
Marcus thing and that pissed himoff.
He's like I because he probablyrealized in that moment when he
, you know, come out of thechurch with a shotgun, he's like
if it wasn't for him, john Wickwould have been dead.
So yeah, but it's like yougotta swallow that man.

Speaker 1 (01:30:56):
John's gonna kill you .
He's killed everybody.

Speaker 4 (01:31:00):
Well, it doesn't matter you got ego he's like he
may be unstoppable, but I'll addmore men, you're not that
unstoppable, I think I could doit.
Yeah, it's always that thinkingthe pride or something.
Yeah, that you can do it likeno one's this good it like he's
a fucking boogeyman.

Speaker 2 (01:31:12):
No one's going to respect him unless he tries yeah
.
I guess so.

Speaker 1 (01:31:15):
And I mean, if you let him kill your son, you sold
your son Also if he kills JohnWick, right, that makes his
status, because he lost all hisblackmail, all of his money and
everything.
So he lost everything oneverybody.
So he has no power, he yeah.
So we hear Lance Reddick callMiss Perkins, saying I'm sorry
to call you at this hour.

(01:31:36):
We see that she walks to thislike open area and Winston pops
up and has Perkins executed forthe breaking of the continental
rules and then informs John thatVigo is preparing to leave the
city by helicopter.
Winston, miss Perkins, pausesas he walks up to Miss Perkins
your membership to thecontinental has been by thine
own hand revoked.
I mean, I love that.
I love the Continental has beenby thine own hand revoked.
Got an executor.
It's great love that.
I love.

Speaker 4 (01:31:56):
Like the way he says by thine own hand when I went
back and rewatched, becausebefore four came out, I went
back and watched the other threeso I'd forgotten because I
hadn't watched one as muchbecause I really liked the
sequels forgot about this girl.
She just killed people oncontinental ground because you
know, second one makes such abig deal about it and I was like
what happens?

(01:32:16):
I was like oh damn.
I didn't realize.
I completely forgot about this.

Speaker 1 (01:32:19):
It's like did she not know, I would have been like
I'm not going to any place withyou guys?

Speaker 4 (01:32:22):
I think hers is the because she thinks she's better.
She's the folly of youth.
Yeah, I think that's how I sawher.
She's youth versus these peoplewho are established and
learning to respect.
And that was her giveaway.
She's like I don't care aboutthe Continental, while the other
old heads understood to respectit.

Speaker 1 (01:32:40):
Yeah, so John races to New York Harbor where he
fights his henchman, runs over aguy and shoots him as he rolls
over his car.
It's great we see that Avi asksfor a gun and it's like Avi
Mayhem, have a gun with youevery single second.

Speaker 4 (01:32:59):
You're in a rut.
I love how just the guy in theback, Vigos, is sitting here
like, oh, this is happening andyou can't stop it.
And he asks for the asshole,but it's like dude.

Speaker 1 (01:33:11):
No, he just understands he's taking his
final smoke.
Yeah, if I was obvious, I wouldhave gotten out and I would
have just fallen and pretendedto be dead.

Speaker 4 (01:33:18):
Oh, oops, I love how Mayhem gets hit with a car in
this car insurance.
Yeah, it's so great he gets runover, it's perfect.

Speaker 1 (01:33:25):
So then Viggo gets the upper hand by crashing into
John and he, like, pushes hiscar over, doesn't explode
because realistic move.
Vigo tells John no more guns,and then it starts raining and
they have their hand-to-handcombat.
An injured wick struggles withVigo a bit but ultimately wins.
And then I love, because likethey're kind of just stabbing

(01:33:46):
each other a little bit and thenhe stabs him like I don't know
on the shoulder or likesomewhere.

Speaker 4 (01:33:50):
I think he gets him a little bit right here, but at
this angle you hit like a majorbecause you know you have your
carotid artery, yeah, your neck,I think the angle he put it in
and obviously that dude ain'tgoing to last, yeah, I think the
angle he put it would hit likea very major artery and he would
have bled out internally mostly.

Speaker 1 (01:34:06):
Yeah, and so like they kind of sit after like the
fight, it After like the fight,it's like V goes be seeing you,
john.
Yeah, be seeing you.
Oh, fuck, yeah, that's becausethey say that there's all the
other ones.

Speaker 4 (01:34:18):
There's always like some big fight he has with
someone, like he's like the mainhenchman, and they always say
like in the next one, was it whowas that?
I can't remember off the top ofmy head, I have to rewatch it.
It was that rapper, guy right,common, guy, right, common,
common, yeah, so common.
And it has the same thing saysbe seeing you.
And it happens again in thethird one, to be seeing you.

Speaker 1 (01:34:36):
And I didn't realize in their mind, because I didn't
realize it was connection themes, like we'll sit when they say
be seeing you, it's like you'regonna be dead too soon, so I'll
be seeing you soon, that's how Isaw that in heaven, the
freaking common and wick fightwhere they're, just where
they're silencers, shooting eachother in the yes, in like,
they're in like a train stationand they're just like pew, pew,

(01:34:59):
like trying to secretly hide it.

Speaker 4 (01:35:01):
That was so funny.

Speaker 1 (01:35:01):
And then, like falling down those concrete
stairs, like well, this hasgotten out of the realm of
somewhat realistic and she'll bedead, so John, resigned to
dying from his injuries, watcheson his phone a video of Helen
telling him that he needs to gohome.
He breaks into a nearby animalclinic to treat his wounds and
adopts a pit bull puppy,scheduled to be euthanized
before beginning to walk home.

(01:35:22):
John Wick, the end.
So what's the point of JohnWick?
What's the movie trying to say?
Is it trying to say anything oris it just trying to be like
action Cool?

Speaker 4 (01:35:34):
I think action Cool.
I could see some moments oflike that whole world, of like
you think you're out and it'snot hard to like the whole easy
thing and it's like you know youthink you could be out of this
world because you always thinkabout people who grow up in
rough neighborhoods and they sayI got out, but it's so easy.
If you just even that littlebit of a drop, you're easily
pulled back in.

Speaker 1 (01:35:53):
Yeah, for this movie specifically.
I know it's maybe not all ofthem, because the next one it's
just like a guy he gave, likesome sort of coin thing.
Like it's a special, like yougave this to me, so you have to
do this for me now.
But in this one I think it'slike revenge and violence only

(01:36:18):
leads to more vengeance andviolence.
Because it's like you killedthe puppy, took his car, so he
has to kill.
Joseph kills joseph vigo's likewell, I'm gonna kill marcus.
Marcus died.

Speaker 4 (01:36:22):
Well, now john wicks gotta kill vigo and it's just
like none of this had to happen.
It's also everybody's justfucking nice to each other.
Well, it's also just like yougot to learn to let it go, or do
you want to keep going down thepath of revenge, which is what
it leads to?
And it's like, john, are youreally out, or do you really
enjoy this live?

Speaker 1 (01:36:33):
yeah, and also, being young age with power corrupts
people like Yosef who, just likehe, can do anything that he
wanted to to anybody but turnsout you can't when there's
hitmen everywhere.
Yeah, I think like the kind ofthe.
I mean, I think ultimately themovie is just about fuck yeah,
good food baby don't fuck withmy dog, yeah, but if I could
find a point, is this likerevenge and violence, but it's

(01:36:54):
also a revenge movie, so that'swhat revenge movies are about or
spay and neuter your pets.
That is true everybody.
Also don't have a Mustang.
I want to know why that dogdoesn't get euthanized, because
it's a pit bull.
Probably someone bought a pitbull in New York and they
couldn't have it in theirapartment, so maybe they just
Well, people get those dogs.

Speaker 4 (01:37:12):
It was a puppy though .

Speaker 1 (01:37:13):
Yeah, I mean it's like could we just?

Speaker 4 (01:37:14):
He probably still ate a baby.
It's like, could we just?

Speaker 1 (01:37:17):
send it somewhere.

Speaker 4 (01:37:18):
Well, my coworker has a Stafford thing which is like
a pit bull and that thing islike 70 pounds and the way he
talks, yeah, it's a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:37:33):
Yeah, we have that that's snake Does snake tackle
you.

Speaker 4 (01:37:38):
No, but he does better.
He tackles you guys yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:37:42):
He's not nearly as excited about me when I'm here,
so all right.
Well, that's the point of themovie apparently.
So we're a different point ofthe movie send us some fan mail.
It's in the description at thetop you can click the link.
Or if it doesn't allow you toclick the link, go to the bottom
and it's werecommendmailbag atgmailcom.
I'm good at saying that Likebullet points.

Speaker 4 (01:38:00):
I love that you have this category, because whenever
we do the Last Jedi.

Speaker 1 (01:38:08):
I would love to see what other.
So we're gonna hit our nextcategory the good, the bad, the
ugly, the fine.
That's where we discuss thegood of the film.
What we liked about the moviecould be a scene, it could be
the whole thing, it could be theactors, whatever.
The bad something you didn'tlike.
The ugly, something that didn'tage well.
Well, the fine something thatdid age well.
So I think for it.
Obviously the good is actionand keanu reeves, I mean that's

(01:38:31):
like the whole point.

Speaker 3 (01:38:32):
These movies are good .

Speaker 1 (01:38:34):
It's like.
It's just like a perfect meshof just a brilliant action star
and just brilliant directing.

Speaker 2 (01:38:41):
Yeah, I think it was the seamless sequel to Point
Break.

Speaker 1 (01:38:45):
Yeah, oh, jason, I actually have a question.
So on Collateral, you said likethe, and then stuff makes it
like a bad movie.
But is this good?
But I guess you do get like alittle more story at the
beginning it's just if you killa dog, it's over, it's over it's
vengeance, it's over.

Speaker 3 (01:39:01):
Because I was thinking while watching it.

Speaker 1 (01:39:02):
I was like because I immediately watched this after
we recorded Collateral and I waslike well, so John Wick's die
and then he gets a puppy andthen the puppy dies and then he
kills people, and then he goesand kills, it goes the
continental, and then he goes,kills more people and then, he
goes back to continental.

Speaker 2 (01:39:17):
But the reason is the puppy, yeah, and plus the wife,
okay, also.
I get it, I guess All right.

Speaker 4 (01:39:24):
So any other good.
I think, like I said, it justset a new standard for me on
like action scenes and movies.
That's like my good for it,like it was a new top tier.

Speaker 2 (01:39:34):
Yeah, top tier Like this is the new standard.
You better follow it, becausethis is like the gold like it.

Speaker 4 (01:39:38):
To me it's like the gold standard and Fall Guy went
up to that gold standard ofstunts to show that like there's
certain movies that do that.

Speaker 1 (01:39:45):
And I've been meaning to watch that oh dude, I think
it's on Peacock, still it is soyeah, and just like I don't know
, just the nightclub scene inthe beginning scene in action
film is so good, so for the bad,I put the final fight scene
Finally, yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:40:00):
Sure, I could deal with it.

Speaker 1 (01:40:00):
Even in theaters.
I was like, oh so we're doingthe Taken thing.
So where it's like you just sawthe hitman kill or the action
star kill all these young, spry,crazy people, and then it's
like and then he handicapshimself for the final boss.

Speaker 4 (01:40:14):
He got hit with a car .

Speaker 1 (01:40:15):
He's tired, he's got to do hand-to-hand combat with a
guy that looks like he probablycouldn't even do a squat yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:40:21):
I really just didn't like how not enough people died.
You'll like the sequels.

Speaker 1 (01:40:27):
Oh good, it probably doubles the death.
I feel like they keep.

Speaker 4 (01:40:31):
I think they keep having more deaths per one.

Speaker 1 (01:40:32):
I know the second one is like way higher well then,
like they all get like 10 to 15minutes longer each time too,
that last one's like three hours, but it's so good when you
first watch it and you're likethis is just constant John Wick
action.

Speaker 4 (01:40:43):
What can I not like?

Speaker 2 (01:40:44):
falling down.
I can only have an erection.

Speaker 4 (01:40:49):
I gotta go.
Did he take Viagra and wife?

Speaker 3 (01:40:52):
no, it's like did he watch.

Speaker 2 (01:40:53):
John Wick yeah that's one of the things we have on
here John Wick related deathsskyrocket it's like every time.

Speaker 1 (01:41:01):
It's like, damn, I can't get it up.
Alright, let me put John Wickon what do you got for bad?

Speaker 4 (01:41:07):
bad it's just maybe some of the cliche moments, the
final fight.
Yeah, like you said, there'sjust a few little weak parts,
but I explained them like how Isee them weak moments.
But I can kind of like in myhead reason it out a little more
.

Speaker 1 (01:41:21):
Got to hold my microphone.
Earthquake spell Shut up.
All right, so we're going to goto the ugly.
It's something that in Age ofUlt, something that I never
realized in this movie, is howmuch luck went into Wick
surviving this movie.
Marcus twice, I mean, it's likealways just like, oh dang, this
thing happened and he was ableto get out of a deadly situation

(01:41:42):
.
And I was like I don't rememberthat as much, no, from the
first time I watched it.
But I was like, oh, it's a verylike Deus Ex Machina type thing
.

Speaker 4 (01:41:50):
I think they kind of get rid of that a lot in the
sequels.
I feel, like it's more.
There's moments where ithappens, but not on that level.
Like Marcus is a littlestraight up, like yeah there is
yeah because without Marcus wedie.
Yes, they have a lot lessmoments of that in the sequel.
So I think, that could be likethe ugly.

Speaker 1 (01:42:07):
Yeah, I thought it was.
It's kind of like a cheap wayto keep getting them out of all
these hard situations.

Speaker 2 (01:42:13):
I don't really have anything for the ugly.

Speaker 1 (01:42:15):
I don't know that that's great with you Cool.
So we're going to do the finds.
I'm going to age well.
Killing Russians?
Yes, mob Russians.

Speaker 2 (01:42:26):
Unless you listen to the podcast.
Well, yeah, Obviously.

Speaker 4 (01:42:29):
And they're all in the mob.

Speaker 1 (01:42:30):
We do actually have Russian listeners.
Well, they could be using VPN,but that is true.
But if you're Russian, we ain'tgot a problem with you.

Speaker 4 (01:42:37):
No, but in movies you're always bad and we can't
help that.
Just the bad ones.
There's always someone that'sgotta be the bad guy and it's
just.

Speaker 2 (01:42:43):
It's just Russia, right now always killing people
with bursht we had the Germans.

Speaker 1 (01:42:50):
Yeah, competent action for me.
And Keanu will never die.

Speaker 4 (01:42:54):
Long live Keanu he's also been in the Spongebob show
movie.
So I mean you can't, you can'tbeat that yeah, they literally
made a.

Speaker 1 (01:43:01):
That was the peak of his career.
There's a movie called Keanuand he voices the cat.

Speaker 4 (01:43:08):
Nice, he goes oh yeah , when it's all he does, I did
not know that that's so.
Yeah, that was beautiful Idon't know.

Speaker 2 (01:43:16):
I think russians are just like some of the best
villains ever.

Speaker 4 (01:43:20):
They really are, and they're so it's because they're
always to portray them as likethe tough guys, and that's
what's so cool is like it's whenyou're portrayed as the bad guy
but you're portrayed in like atough way sure, and they're
always like the criminalunderbelly and you just want to
just wipe them out.

Speaker 1 (01:43:38):
So that's that category.
Great job guys.

Speaker 2 (01:43:42):
Sorry I was.
I'm not like anti-USSR, I waslooking something up.

Speaker 1 (01:43:47):
So then we're going to hit our next category.
It's where we it's calledDouble Feature.
It's where we pick a movie thatgoes well with this movie.
I'm going to say mine first, sono one else says it.
I picked the Raid Redemption oh, I didn't know that.
And action movie is so goodthat in the sequels they nearly
brought everybody from thismovie and put them in the John
Wick movies.

(01:44:07):
Mad Dog from Redemption thatguy you've probably seen him in
a ton of action movies.
He's like looks older, he's gotthe long hair and it's like
where he, John Wick, is like inthat like really well lit room.
That's a bunch of glass.

Speaker 3 (01:44:21):
And he fights the two guys.

Speaker 1 (01:44:22):
Those are the people from Raid Redemption.
So what do you guys got?
It's essentially if uh dread,uh inspired dread, because it's
just uh, the SWAT team,essentially, is going into this
building to rescue somebody andhe's got to fight his way up,
because it's also like a uh.

Speaker 4 (01:44:39):
It's one of those uh buildings that's so big, it has
so many people, it's like itsown community or like what am I
trying to say?
Like, yeah, and it's like apoor house, yeah, so like.
It's so tensed in there it'slike a like it's just weird to
see.

Speaker 1 (01:44:51):
It's like a slum, but instead of being spread out,
it's in this contained buildinglike a prison almost yes, and
honestly I'm not gonna lie theaction is so fucking sick and
favorite scene, I think, is thefucking machete and he just I
love when, like like they breaka door and then it's like
there's like a little chunk,like to a point, like at the
bottom, and he like takes it andhe jumps over this guy and like

(01:45:11):
slams his neck down on it.

Speaker 4 (01:45:13):
Their stunner is so cool because they take like.
I feel like when you look athow they're smaller and spryer
and they're jumping everywherelike Rey Mysterio it just like
moves a lot.
Yeah, jason, what's your movie?
He's looking it up.

Speaker 2 (01:45:26):
Yeah, I was looking it up, I was trying to think of
this, I had it earlier.
But there's this movie whereall the villains are on like
bike helmets and he kills abillion of them.
I can't remember right now Bikehelmets.
There's a lot of like facelessvillains, but they're wearing

(01:45:46):
like these black helmets.

Speaker 1 (01:45:49):
Premium.
Oh, that's a bicycle thing,yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:45:51):
I can't remember what it's called?

Speaker 1 (01:45:52):
I guess not.
Well, I'll give up, maybe.

Speaker 2 (01:45:53):
Jason will a bicycle thing.
Yeah, I can't remember whatit's called.

Speaker 4 (01:45:55):
I guess not.
Well, I'll give out, maybeJason will figure it out, yes.
My recommended movie is Sisu.

Speaker 1 (01:46:00):
Oh yeah, sisu, it's like the war movie, right?
Kingsman, kingsman, okay.

Speaker 4 (01:46:07):
Yeah, that would be a good one.
Sisu was like set.
After World War Two.
Old man lost his family buthe's still trying.
I think he lost his familyafter the war.
No actually the war ishappening.
World War II is getting nearthe end.

Speaker 1 (01:46:21):
Yeah, it's like when an ex-soldier who discovers gold
in the Lapland wilderness triesto take the loot into the city.
German soldiers, led by abrutal SS officer, battle him.

Speaker 2 (01:46:30):
That sounds awesome.

Speaker 4 (01:46:31):
It's really, and it's like he doesn't like talk at
all.
It's basically like anotherJohn Wick.
And that was like one day we itwas when we had our movie pass
Like, oh, let's go see Sisu.
And we were like, oh, this is agood movie and it's worth.
It's really worth it,especially like John Wick and
like kind of revenge things thatchurch scene is so good, I

(01:46:52):
think the first one was reallyfun.

Speaker 1 (01:46:53):
I haven't seen any other ones.
I haven't seen any other oneseither the second one was kinda
they got cowboys in it.
I really wanted to watch itisn't it just no?

Speaker 4 (01:47:00):
I don't think so not bad.
I don't.
I know well, you got JustinTimberlake.

Speaker 1 (01:47:04):
Channing Tatum's in it.

Speaker 4 (01:47:05):
Channing.

Speaker 2 (01:47:06):
Tatum yeah, he spits the go on the thing.

Speaker 4 (01:47:09):
No, it's just there's certain they do.
A typical thing, I thinkKingsman to me was like this is
a spy movie, like a goofy spymovie, but modern and it's fun
to watch it was really fun.

Speaker 2 (01:47:19):
I just like this is a good like princess.

Speaker 4 (01:47:22):
Offers of anal sex that was hilarious, so bad, that
church scene.
Oh, dude, that church scene.
I just was not expecting it.
I'm just sitting here I was inthe theater the whole time with
