• Keanu getting horses to kick people to death
this was hilarious. also killing someone with a book which seemed like a particularly Keanu-specific way to off someone.

i was hoping to have a good time at this and i didn't really, it was fine
theater was pretty dead, though, like five people and i was the only person who laughed at some of the rare funny bits. maybe with a liver audience it would have been more fun.

I guess people in high places saw my poll clowning on the awfulness of videogame adaptations because Wick writer/director is apparently filming a Just Cause movie and now I'm actually excited about a videogame adaptation.

it's true he ruled and now I've updated my desire for a Henry Golding action vehicle to include him as the buddy

i do wish he'd used his martial arts chops more on iron chef. bobby flay needed some kicking.

Dacascos was, improbably, my fave of the main villains so far
― Simon H., Thursday, 23 May 2019 01:14 (four years ago) link
he’s had a pretty solid career outiside Iron Chef doing direct-to-video action movies (TONS of them), and he’s always popping up on tv shows
― Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 23 May 2019 01:17 (four years ago) link
and yeah, def the most charisma of the Wick villains to date
apparently Hiroyuki Sanada was originally going to have that role but he turned it down for the small part he had in Avengers Endgame
I'm basing this off of a couple of film writers and speculation, but if so: rough move

OMG wait wait so you're telling me that OTT Iron Chef America announcer dude is actually in this thing and I wasn't just indulging in one of my trademarked flights of unbridled fancy when I saw an Iron Chef reference itt, okay I probably need to see this immediately.

rewatching JW2 on Wednesday, started going "it's been 20 minutes since John Wick's been thrown backwards through a pane of glass" and then someone would promptly throw him through a pane of glass, backwards
tonight this kept me so distracted with a) setpieces and b) camp that when when Wick and the fighty dudes ended up in the all-glass hall of trophies with 20 minutes left, I went "holy shit NOBODY HAS THROWN JOHN WICK BACKWARDS THROUGH A PANE OF GLASS ALL MOVIE, here. we. fuckin. go"

I like how they didn’t bother reminding you that he’s wearing a bulletproof suit from John wick 2. One of my friends didn’t remember about the suit as was a little confused by how he kept getting shot and not getting hurt at all, but also not THAT confused because hey, John wick.

I thought this was even more senseless/nonsensical than the last one, with ... OK results. They really could have called it "Ow, My Balls" for all everyone got punched, kicked, shot, stabbed and, er, bit between the legs. I found it amusing that just about every trailer beforehand was for a similarly ridiculous OTT action movie: Rock and Statham, more indestructible assassin porn in "Anna," Gerard Butler fighting drones or something. Anyway, all these years later who knew that "Punisher: War Zone" would be one of the most influential action movies of all time.
Seriously, though, it's so weird they went with "Parabellum" in the title when the title should really have been "John Wick Chapter 3: Excommunicado."
Highlight of the screening may have come when I bought the ticket, to be honest. I figured I would be the only one there, but ahead of me in line was a probably septuagenarian (or possibly older, tbh) couple buying their own John Wick tix! I wonder if they had a good time? Behind me was another very elderly couple, and here was their exchange:
Man: What is John Wick?Woman (sneering dismissively): It's stupid. It's about a detective or something.Man: A detective? Woman (derisively): I don't know what it's supposed to be about. But it's about ... something.
