RIP to Lance Reddick not only was he a great actor but also a phenomenal voice actor as well
as a destiny player lance reddick is and always will be a legend.
same Titan is my main
I remember a character he voiced in TRON: Uprising. REALLY underrated series. It deserved more than one season.
I wonder who will take over as the leader of the Chroma Conclave in Vox Machina.
Lance Reddick will always be Phillip Broyles in my mind, may he Rest In Peace
Seriously whoever had the idea to put Scott Adkins in a fat suit but still be able to fight is a genius
Bruh, when i realised thats the same guy that played the Yuri Boyka, i was like "what?!"
He would be perfect as Batman I think.
Reminded me of Bob from Tekken
It was Scott's idea
When I saw him in the fat suit I thought? "Are they really gonna have Scott Adkins in this and not use his skills?!"
Hiroyuki Sanada and Donnie Yen actually choreographed their fight scene and Chad Stahelski took a step back and let them ; which is one of the reasons he’s the best action director working today.
I would too just let two legends do what they do best and soak up all that knowledge
That's called respect! A good leader knows when he can go hands off and let his people do their thing.
100%. There are any number of directors who you can absolutely see putting a stop to anything outside their own vision. It's not necessarily a bad thing - a single cohesive style throughout certainly has its benefits. But in this case it was a gift to viewers.
The last time that happened was when Heath Ledger took care of the Joker's video calls and look how that turned out. That was an amazing fight scene. It's nice to see all the diversity in the movie. It helps to make the movie what it is.
Fun fact, if the Marquis had shot John before he fired his 3rd shot, he would have been in violation of the rules, and he himself would have had to suffer the consequences at the hands of the Harbinger. Once the Marquis took the weapon for the final shot, he thought that John had fired, you can even see that the muzzle of John’s pistol doesn’t flash. Which is another great note for the characterization of the Marquis, he is so tunnel-vision focused on killing John Wick that he doesn’t care to pay enough attention to all the details and leaves himself completely open for the kill shot. Allowing his interests to outweigh his worth, the very thing the Harbinger warned him of.
thanks I actually hadn't thought of that. I was like but why didn't the marquis just shoot John when he got the chance or why the John risk something so huge, but it makes sense because even if he died the marquis still loses.
@@wissiw5276 “we seek the truth, and will endure the consequences”
This was a dangerous gamble for John. He had to bet that Caine either recognizing he hasn't shot yet or the phrase he says before the duel.
Nice detail. I didn't know that.
John Wick is absolutely set in an alternate universe where roughly 10% of the population are assassins. Everyone is used to the constant stylized battles, so no one bats an eye
I do agree that they are common but I think they don’t bat an eye because if they get involved, they will probs die. But if they don’t, as the table declares, they will not be killed or else there are major consequences. You kill the target and everytbing that tries to stop you from getting said target
You’re probably right but I still like to think that it’s set in our universe and there is an entire shadow world under our noses ruled by the high table.
The people there also seem to have an alternative physiology, or at least John has titanium bones.
I always love when that 10% of the population gets "activated" by coins or markers or whatever item is flashed in their face. It's a weird source of comedy to me.
the entire theater audibly gasped when wick threw killa off the stairs and you could hear his neck snap. absolutely the most brutal part of that film for me
my body just moved to look away when it happened lmao def one of the most gruesome moments in the series
I looked and laughed
I love every part of these movies, but that moment made me physically and verbally react. I forget what I said, but it was some variety of "Fuck" or "Shit". Pretty sure it was "Fuck" lol.
Something I realized about the Wick movies that people don't seem to talk about is that the central theme of them is about systems versus human relationships. Almost every consequential plot point boils down to someone choosing between their loyalty to the system or their human connection to someone else.
"consequences...yeah" now that you mentioned it...what's ironic in this series is that criminals who make a living breaking laws are in fact tied down by...their own laws. John Wick could have betrayed Santino by allying with his sister and the series would have taken a different turn.
@@albertgaspar627he had to by the marker. Absolutely CANNOT disobey the marker
@@robertolebron2296 and yet if John had disobeyed the marker...he'd be in the exact same spot. just like any civilian who obeys the law without questioning, these criminals are the same type of lemming.
@@albertgaspar627 well not excommunicado and the international assassins all out to kill him. Just Santino’s men and lady
@@robertolebron2296 had he changed alliances, it's possible he'd still be made excommunicado by the table when they found out (if they did--had Santino's sister been the friend she claimed to be, she may have run interference with John as payment for giving her the head's up). he may have also taken out Santino with his sister's help, and then only the table would have spent money on the bounty. Johnny was between a rock and a hard place, and he assumed someone willing to kill his own sister but didn't have the guts to do it himself, had any honor. John wouldn't do well in North Korea :)
Regarding Trackers: I think the reason why John is surprised to find one in the wild is that they probably usually avoid action. Based on the name and Nobody's main skills alone, it seems like a job that acts more like a Support role (as information gatherers; explains how Winston knew that Iosef was in The Red Circle in the first movie, or how they knew where Perkins was going, etc.) to the assassins than a subgroup of them. I think Nobody's just a more ambitious tracker than most, with the fighting skills to back it up.
Maybe the Trackers are a lower "caste" in this secret society. They aren't as famous or as rich as the assassins, and perhaps Nobody was trying to ascend to their fame and riches.
@@Skyhawk1998 my theory is that a "tracker" is an assassin that targets mainly other assassins that have gone rogue or "excommunicado" but he does this in specific way as in, gathering as much info as possible and then "tracking" the target and even going as far as actively helping the prey or even protecting them, only to up the bounty that they want for themselves. or i might be wrong and tracker in ' john wick's ' world means something entirely different..
what is the red circle
@@phr3ui559 The club that Iosef was hiding in. Winston gave John the information through the bartender after talking with him, and my theory is that he got that information through trackers.
John sliding around in the Barracuda while trying to find a gun on the street with his bare hands is one of the funniest visuals to me.
Even if it's a kit car. Still hurts my soul to see such a beautiful car get so messed up. Makes me angry also.
Funnest*
He was trying to get his custom gun back that the bowery king got for him
Fun fact, Bill Skarsgard revealed the Marquis’s backstory in an interview, telling us he came from poverty and he rose through the ranks of the High Table to get to where he is now.
Huh, I really got the impression that he came from an upper class dynasty
@@DoctorXanderyeah, he, The Marquis, sounds almost the same as The D'Antonio, which like those who always got the taste of crazy wealth and never have to get dirt in their hands if they didn't want to. Bill Skarsgård really out perform the character
So he's basically Wick without skills, manners or a titanic body count?
I don't know he acts like a spoiled brat born with a silver spoon
@@DoctorXander In a world of spies and hitmen such as John Wick, you never know what their backstory really is
The detail of stabbing him through his dominant hand is something I didn’t pick up on but it’s such a great one. He doesn’t want to duel John but knows he has to do it gives him a better chance while still keeping it fair. He could’ve cut the hand off if he wanted to but is too honourable to do that kind of thing. Such a small thing that says a lot about yen’s character.
One thing im surprised you didn't mention is the scene with John and Caine in the church before the finale; that entire scene just builds the relationship for me with both of them silently acknowledging that it's not personal rather just two professionals doing a job
10:40 One part I loved in the Caine and Shimazu's fight, is when Caine says "take care of your daughter" and Shimazu says "I am", because he knows if he doesn't die, the High table is likely to punish him through his daughter. Shimazu truly protected his daughter till the very end, and even after his death
Considering hes talking to the one man who would understand since they are using his daughter to control him.
the only thing that concerns me in this is that at the post-credit scene it seems that Caine is gonna be killed by Shimazu’s daughter. it’s kinda sad and ironic that Caine won’t get to be with his own daughter because of what he did to someone else’s daugher 😢
although Caine did said “i’ll be waiting for you” to that girl so, he kinda asked for it…
@@guilhermelclopes There's an original cut of the after credit scene, which showed Akira killing Caine, but they decided to cut it so that it can be left open for Caine to possibly return
Saw this in theater, that first scene where John is punching the post was so LOUD and impactful that I panicked for a split second. Fantastic movie.
Fr it rattled my brain perfectlyaperfectlya
SAME. It really scared me ngl xD
Lol I forgot how that jolted me
I am glad you pointed out the cinematic shots, there is so much more to these John Wick movies than just action, I mean the set designs and transitions flow so seamlessly between moments of action. You can seriously watch this movie in like 10-30 minute increments and sometimes never lose anything it's great. I know they're not easy to write but I sincerely hope they make a ton more of them I mean really they're just so good. Keanu taking down people for long takes of action yes please. I wish the man was younger but I hope we can get the love and care he pours into every thing he does.
A part I really loved and was surprised more attention wasn't drawn to it, was in the kitchen scene at Okinawa where Caine places the first motion sensor on the corner. You'll notice that at the beginning he does it at about head height then he takes a pause and places it lower, at about waist height. At the start I didn't realize the significance, maybe he just misplaced the sensor, but then it dawned on me that it was a lot cleverer than that. Caine was clearly tired after the first fight, and when he's behind that corner, he wants to take a moment to catch his breath, so he places the motion sensor right by his ear, so it would give him some advance notice if somebody was sneaking up on him while he was recovering, and later he places the sensor further down, reducing the chances of it being spotted while he's aiming. The attention to detail in this movie astonishes me.
Osaka*
That last hour of relentless action through paris is maybe the best long form action sequence I've ever seen. It's downright perfect

"Finally" ??? Its only 3 years old... most big budget films take at least 2 years to make... how fucking quick do you want this thing?
This movie had the best soundtrack in a series full of absolutely killer soundtracks. No song doesn't put you in the mood of the scene, be it tense or intense. The club song had so much amazing layering in it and was genuinely goosebump inspiring on the chorus section, the shootout in traffic felt desperate, of course the best fight in this movie needed the return of the ol' John Wick Wubs from the Red Circle Chapter 1, and the stair scene just made you feel the last ditch, all in effort.
exactly i got so many great songs for the gym from this movie
As an Aussie I’ve always love the “such is life” quote and how it embodies acceptance of consequences. But how it is used here (2:45) adds a sombreness to it. The perfect use to convey the gravity of the situation. And that way it was delivered! Pure brilliance from both men
I didn't even have a KZhead account when this man started doing his thing. I watched his videos from my sister's account. Cinemawins was the first channel I subscribed to. I grew up on cinemasins and screen junkies and had really been bogged down by the negativity. Discovering this channel was my first step toward becoming a more optimistic and happy person. Lee will always have my support and I hope that any and all new content goes well for him.
What an awesome message to share. I think a lot of us went through a similar process. It’s easy to be attracted to negativity, hate sells. Yet CinemaWins not only cover the positive stuff we missed, they also still give their feedback on things that could be improved. Film criticisms originally came from a place of heart, wanting things to be the best version of themselves.
I think the Marquis is a perfect "hateable" villain. What I mean is that, from the moment he pops up, you hate him, you want him to fail and to die; and when he eventually does, you're happy. Not only did he murder a fan favorite who was unarmed, he also treats everyone else like trash (threatens Caine's daughter, puts a knife in Nobody's hand...) and he is very powerful in a way that feels unearned. He has no charisma, he doesn't seem to know how to fight; in short, he has no redeemable qualities.
In the scene where John is trying to hide from Caine, Keanu insisted on that because as soon as he saw how fast Donnie Yen was. He realized that this might be the only person that John is actually afraid of because he's so good.
John Wick is the embodiment of a man of focus, commitment and sheer feckin will
He killed two men, with a pencil, a fucking pencil. I mean who does that?
That’s why he is Furtnite Guy!
@@L0xi3I love how we can all quote this!
You're goddamn right
@@BloodyKnuckleit’s a bot, that’s why
I think the table did have an iron-clad loyalty to the rules and laws, but John's ability to defy them and survive made them desperate enough to give power to a man who had no respect for the rules unless they could benefit him.
Perhaps my favorite part about the scene in the Lourve is the fact that the painting that is behind The Marquis, is all about excess, arrogance and selfishness. It's "The Death of Sardanapalus" and depicts the massacre and destruction of all his worldly possessions as his own death approached. Except, whereas one might expect Sardanapalus to be perhaps a bit more emotional about his death, he seemingly doesn't really care about his death as much as he cares about making sure his vast wealth and fortune would be his alone and he doesn't care about the pain and suffering he is causing to others. Sound familiar anyone?
I absolutely LOVE the final section of getting to the church. Gives me "Warriors" vibes. Not only with the Radio, but with the lingo too.
What really struck about this movie was going in knowing how long it was, and how excessive it looked, but then I never felt the length while I was watching. They did such a great job of making every set-piece feel different and unique.
I wish Dragon Breath rounds worked as well in most games as they do in this movie. For anyone wondering how it works, they fill the shot with magnesium shavings. Those sparks are burning metal shavings
Does it have any added effects? I'm genuinely curious cus it looks so cool
@@kingmuizz708Magnesium burns at 4000F (2200C), so it definitely has an added effect of being both a psychological weapon and a painful one.
The one game that has them and they actually feel very similar to how they appear here is Payday 2.
Ouchie ouchie burn round do funny to skin
One of my favorite moments in the club scene was when Killa gets up and faces john after being knocked unconscious. They meet eyes, and Killa scrambles away in fear. Only for a split second, John Wick smiles and laughs. It's so subtle that I missed it on the first watch, but it was one of my favorite character moments from him. John enjoys what he's doing. He's enjoying the hunt, the fear he instills in his prey. That's one of the only moments in the franchise where he knows how legendary he is and it's so great to watch.
I like how the writers left a small gap for John to be alive. The line during the grave scene "do you think he's in heaven or hell?" could also refer to how John is feeling now that he's "out". He could be in 'heaven' and enjoying his freedom, or he could be in 'hell' and hating that The High Table is still intact after what it did to him and his friends. Sure the Marquis is dead, but The Table appointed him. My guess for a 5th movie's story is as good as anyone's. My best guess is that the out of touch High Table gets paranoid about John or angry that they lost to him and either changes the rules to get to John, or they force someone John owes a debt to (or someone willing to break the rules) to force John back in. Maybe The High Table offers to honor the bounty on John's head. In the 2nd movie, the manager of the Rome Continental asks if John is after the Pope, so targets for assassination don't have to be in the game (or the Pope is a badass assassin).
There's a deleted scene where John goes and gets a blessing from the Pope
There's no gap lol his death is a metaphor. Dude is alive
No, no, no! Never stop the work on this channel, good sir! You are delight that people like me are looking for when watching a movie and then finding out that is getting trashed by "critics". Because I know that there are good thngs in every movie and you help point them out for me to find new appreciation.
totally agree with every word you said.
Where there is criticism there is generally something worth complimenting imo. It’s like light and dark, we wouldn’t have criticisms without the compliments and expectations.
@@danb9460 true, but some channels just love to cling to misses and point at them, craving for attention, like "Did you see that fuckup? We saw that!" or "Oooh, thats not realistic! That's not possible! This is ridiculous! How dumb you have to be to do that?"
Your channel helped me understand what movies are all about. The celebration of cinema and creatives coming together to make something they love, the fact that every movie is someone’s favourite…its really stuck with me and I’m sure with many others as well. No matter what you do as long as you bring that energy ill be sure to stick around and support in any which way i can!
This movie being almost 3 hours long makes me call back to what Viggo said about John. "John is a man of focus, commitment, sheer will..." And this movie delivers it, John just won't quit, no matter what
I'm happy to see what else you have in store for us. Its your personality that got EGA to be what it was. You've made an enjoyable format by covering the plot with humour and "Wins" and then adding in your own personal thoughts at the end makes it great.
I think John might be dead dead. Which I’m fine with because the high table wanted to avoid him becoming a symbol/martyr for people to rebel against their power. But with all the spin offs and such releasing I believe that him passing will inspire everyone who’s met/looked up to John to destroy the high table for good. Which I think would be a great John wick 5 and a great end to the series
I think it can very easily go both ways, John being dead for real or only 'John Wick' being dead while he lives on under a pseudonym, a normal life. (then again, wasn't it implied that 'John Wick' wasn't his real name anyway?). I really think this only depends on whether or not a movie without Keanu Reeves can be sustained.
@@benzaiten933 I think a movie without him can do well since we are getting spin-offs in the universe.
@@benzaiten933 Here's the thing, making a movie where he lives on after faking his death would be dumb and cliche. Because one, he was already freed from the table at the end so no need to fake his death, and 2, if faking his death now works, why wouldn't have he done it from the begining to live with his wife, instead of leaving that life
That's what I'd like to see as well. A war of the Bowery King versus the High Table, with the legend of John Wick inspiring others who are sick of the High Table.
My opinion on John Wick 5 will be greatly reduced if they just asspull him actually being alive the whole time with that sendoff.
Please keep working on this channel in whatever form you feel fits for you best. You're a bright sunshine of positivity in a sea of negativity
I think it's safe to say that whatever fuckery YT is up to, you've built, grown, and earned your audience and we're here for you. Keep up the positive work!
Imma be honest, I'll watch nearly anything you'll put out. You're a genuine guy who's got heart and passion. That's enough for me to enjoy.
Dragon's breath is legal in most places and even considered non-lethal in most places at least in the United States as there's no hard projectile to impact the body it's simply incendiary
To add to your point, I'm 99% certain cutting into a bullet is not illegal as you can just buy "pre-cut" bullets directly. They're called hollow points and are widely used by police forces as they reduce the chance of overpenetration and thus bystander casualties. From Canada so not 100% certain on US laws.
@@GCCarsCA Odds are that modifying the ammo like that without appropriate licensure and FFL stuff is what would make it illegal, because of bureaucratic weirdness.
Man the way John won the duel at the end of the film made me laugh in cinema. I wasn’t the only one and John said it perfectly. Concequences.
I laughed out loud too. I didn’t think the writers would Andrew Jackson it.
Not only did they bring back Scott Adkins, they even brought back Marko Zaror. Yes, The Marquis's right hand man, that's him in Undisputed 3. I wish there was a scene where Killa met him and asked "How's your leg?" with a mocking tone. It'll be a fun crossover
Just wanted to say thank you. Discovered this channel when I was going through a serious run of depression a few years ago and it was a bright spot I needed. Always try to watch the new videos, even if it is something I haven't seen because it might get me to watch and become a new favorite (see Mitchell's and the Machines). Can't wait to see the new stuff you put up (including Ted Lasso!)
The John Wick movies revolutionized action and practically created its own subgenre of action thats happened before but these movies really popularized it, an action story with a protagonist who is proficient in violence trying to get away from it but is forced back into the former life. The gun fu, actors learning mostly their own action instead of mostly stunt doubles allowing for a clear and steady camera work, the visually stunning neo noir cinematography and mise en scene, incredible and interesting world building, satisfying sound design, and oscar buzz for a whole new category, sweet sweet action.
one of my favorite things about john's request for his headstone to say "loving husband" is that helen's already said "loving wife". it's safe to say that even though he said it in response to winston's story, he's had that prepared for years
I hope Chad Stahelski gets to direct HIGHLANDER
We’ll he will be directing a ghost of Tsushima movie
The thing is there has already been a Highlander movie, and as we know... "there can only be one" 😅
The first movie is still my favourite but the cinematography in this movie is amazing. It's very satisfying to see a franchise where each chapter is more visually ambitious than the last.
That 22 second shot of the sun in the dessert isnt just an incredible and gorgeous shot, but a homage to the iconic sunrise shot from Lawrence of Arabia. The framing and duration of the shot is almost identical, and the music in the dessert scenes in John Wick 3 and 4 also imitates the orchestral sweep of Maurice Jarre's score from Lawrence of Arbia.
Man, when you hear Shot's Fired start winding up after John gets the Dragon's Breath, it feels like an anime using the opening theme from season 1 in a particularly killer fight in season 4. And the camera slowly rising, I was grinning and nearly bouncing out of my seat the whole time.
Fell in love with the John Wick series for an unconventional reason. Loved them so much that it inspired me to create a "John Wick in Skyrim" fan fiction series. Made a character based on John Wick as a Skyrim build and now I've written three stories based on the movies. But same stories with the Elder Scrolls twist.
How does the build work from gameplay point, i wonder?
Link please and thank you
@@ABadassDragon In short, its really like an mixed hybrid modded build using sneaky assassin and open combatant element. I took my build construction with inspiration from Fudgemuppet's channel.
@@user-zw7te3hl7k I tried sending a link, but KZhead deleted it. Instead, type in THE SKY FORGE. It will take you to a website filled with Elder Scrolls stuff and you can find different builds. My build is called "The Contractor" or "John Wick Inspired build."
Your channel is amazing. I much prefer wins to sins, and I’m sure whatever content you choose to sprinkle in will be well articulated, entertaining, and sincere 😊
When I saw the duel at the end for the first time I immediately thought of the doctor that Jon goes to in the third movie. Shooting in the same places feels like such a good detail that they are both trying to avoid killing each other
The fight scene in the Berlin Club and in the Parisan building with the top view were so gorgeous. I love these crazy wonderful setpieces and planed fights ❤
Also love how the whole film is practically a demo for the Ghost of Tsushima movie, which Stalenski is directing. The entire opening and first act exemplifies this, and as a huge fan of the game, builds up my love and excitement even more.
I love rewatching your John Wick videos every now and then, and I genuinely love how you also added in some explaining in how certain weapons work, things John does (ie; the press check in JW2), and even some gunsmithing related things you point out (The glock porting inn JW2 as well).
Seeing this movie in IMAX was worth it. This movie has so many good fights that it's hard to pick one.
A few suggestions for the next one: 1. The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) 2. Jurassic Park III (2001) 3. Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) 4. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1981) 5. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) 6. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008) Also, I appreciate you too, CinemaWins. Do whatever you feel is right for your hardcore fans!
I would love all of these. Great suggestions.
The Adventures of Tintin.
@@aegis6485let’s do it! Great one
Speed Racer also to that list
That "The Warriors" homage from the Eiffel Tower legit made me gasp and cackle out loud in the theater the first time I saw it. Just absolutely splendid.
The comment I was looking for. I was surprised Cinema Wins missed that. I also had a little giddy moment when I saw it.
Yep, same here. Just perfect.
It's even weirder that he didn't mention it since he straight up referenced The Warriors at the end of his "Everything Great About John Wick" video.
I don't know if it's just a coincidence, but in the second part of the movie we have a lot of videogames references: dragon breath sequence's set remind me a sequence in call of duty black ops or black ops 2 in which you could use the same weapon. The hotline miami up to down shot. And Genesis by Justice was used in an Assassin's Creed 2 trailer. Also the radio speaker reminded me of the movie "The Warriors".
I know this might mean very little but your videos are a great way to rewatch my favorite movies when I just don't have the time to watch an entire movie. You do a great job of hitting all the best parts.
I found your channel when you were at like 7000 subs, consisttently recommend you to my friends as my favourite youtube channel, and I'm pretty sure the main draw of your videos is your positivity. Doesn't matter if it's a movie in the typical EGA style or even a movie at all, as long as you keep your positive, but not sugarcoating outlook on whatever you want to talk about, I'm sure your main audience will support you :)
I think I speak for everyone who watches this channel, that having a wholesome person being wholesome about films, it is so refreshing. Looking forward to the new content! Also, any possibility of doing The Last Samurai in the future 😁
Such a proper sendoff for the character. I loved every single one of the movies and always waited for your "Everything Great about.." videos to come out so I could gasp at every little detail that I missed. Thank you truly for your incredible work CInemaWins. Wishing you the best for what's to come with this channel, we'll be here
For me, it was the whole dragon's breath overhead single take that really made this movie a goat for me. And thus movie has PLENTY of great action sequences that make it stand out but that whole scene is just 🤌🤌🤌🤌
I feel like we missed a win in the credits. One of the songs during the credits roll is by in this moment and it's just such a fitting tone for this franchise. Maria Brink is always a win!
So. Keanu Reeves said that him and Chad Stahelski were going to talk about the chances of making a 5th movie at a bar over a drink. He mentioned that only if they could come up with a convincing story to bring john back would be the only way it could ever happen. There have been WHISPERS of a 5th movie in early production so here's hoping they weren't to drunk when they came up with the idea.
The only way I could see convincing John wick comeback is to say he didn't die he just passed out and he pretended to die so that everyone thought he was dead. Like I feel the only way he could get away from the assassin life is to be in a body bag, but IMHO that's the only way I see it going down in a convincing John wick kinda way. He's not dead, just close to it. He gets better and that's how he gets out, but he gets pulled back in cause some one figures it out.
@@darkmyroHonestly I would be fine if they threw a curveball at the audience and made the film with John actually dead. We’ve met at least half a dozen awesome, sympathetic side characters over the course of these four movies, any one of whom could be the protagonist of their own story. An ensemble where they are forced to team up to take the High Table down for good - because clearly things went too far with the John Wick crisis - could be awesome
@@michaelbradshaw7552 I could see that, but was talking about the character of john wick coming back. I liked his death in this, it was good, it felt earned and i'm usually not a fan of killing off characters, but this felt like a good death. I mean I could think of a thousand ways for them to do a sequel without wick, but if they had to bring back john, a death fake out is the only way I could see them realistically doing it. Something where his friends think he died, but he didn't or the death in 4 is a fake out just for the audience ( which kinda feel ret-con-y in a bad way.) I mean I wouldn't want to add any science fiction elements or mystical elements this late in the game for the franchise cause it seems very realistic and I feel like that would ruin the world they set up a little bit. like I wouldn't want someone chanting over him and then him waking up, or him waking up from a lab/ doctors office that cured his death somehow ( surgery, cloning, magic pill, take your pick) I mean a spin off would be the way to go, same world, different characters and I could see that take different forms like povs from an assassin or the hotel people or someone from the high table or just a similar assassin to john. legendary, but out of the game for reasons only to get pulled back in. the only other way I could see it is as a pequel about him getting out of the assassin game. like that's really the only other way I see Keanu back for a sequel either fake his death or do a prequel, but I don't think you could do like his early career unless you did another actor. like the basic version of the death fake out plot would be he wasn't dead and he faked it on his way back to the states, and then he's found out, the famous john wick isn't dead and you get a lot of " I thought you died john" banter as people come for him. as for the prequel route, you would get the same people back from the first one, and then have john meet his wife, ask to get out of the game, have his wife be terminal and then the movie basically ends where the first john wick begins. like those are the only two ways I see them writing around johns death in the 4th. I'm with you, i'd rather have some sort of spin off then john wick come back, but if he has to come back. those are the only good ways I see them doing it. I only see john was only kinda dead and got better or we get some backstory. That's the only way i see the movies moving forward if keanu is a character in them.
3:03 this line and scene made me extra sad in cinema because it was like 3 weeks(it was recently) since Lance passed :( rest in piece
Your core fans are still here brotha , shout out to you and all the work you do. 👏
I have not loved a performance in any action film more than I loved Donnie's as Caine. SO. FREAKING. GOOD.
This was the peak action in terms of combat and showing how you can actually use the surroundings for the action scenes
Just want to say, I absolutely love your EGA videos, they bring me joy every time I get the notification you have posted a new one. I look forward to your experiment with new stuff.
This is the 1st video I have watched of yours straight after watching the actual film. Usually when I watch these it's films I've seen loads or at least once in the past. It was different to still be all hyped after seeing the rollacoster that is JW4 and hearing your perspective. Never stop friend
Those long takes close to the ending of the movie were awesome!
Word of God states that *Akira actually succeeded in killing Caine in the post-credit stinger scene, but since it was left out of the movie: it's potentially non-canon.*
Yeah, scuttlebutt I heard is that was what was filmed. My guess is someone realized that they would make a bad ass conflicted duo to build a movie off of.
I've commented on very few videos on youtube ever, but what you shared at the end about trying new things, and wanting to keep things going...definitely want you to keep making videos. I don't subscribe to much, but you just won a subscriber - keep up the fantastic work!
as a father and husband, we as men sacrafice things so our families can flourish. never apologize for being a good father and husband. get to the content when ya get to it. I enjoy it and look forward to every new video. Keep on being a good man.
I completely trust your creative vision, EGA is my favourite series on youtube and I am looking forward to the new stuff you will be making!
I am so glad that i watched this movie in the cinema. The sound design was so incredible.
Love your stuff, Lee! I can say your channel has honestly helped me enjoy movies more and appreciate the smaller details and of course, the score!
My theory is that this isn't an alternative universe but some sort of simulation/video game - this is especially apparent when the dancers or people in the streets or the drivers don't care at all about the shooting going on around them (and this happens multiple times in multiple places in this movie) - they behave just like poorly coded background NPCs rather than people. Then of course there's impossible bulletproof suits, John surviving falls that should kill him, people not really caring for their lives (that member of the table in the beginning for example), defeating waves of easy enemies and occasionally coming across minibosses that take more effort to kill and finally there's the actual players which are just OP (that includes John, Caine, Nobody etc.)
I like it. It implies that The Table are like the "gods" in Goblin Slayer, just a bunch of kids playing games.
Thanks for making these videos. You and your videos always make my day better. If things get tough, a EGA mini marathon will always pick me up. Thank you.
Thank you for what you do! I always get excited when I see you post a new video. Thank you for finding and sharing the joy of movies.
Keep up the good work my man. I’ll watch your video on a movie I have 0 interest in watching, just for your perspective and thoughts on it, even if it’s a movie I might otherwise completely ignore or even bash. Your stuff is always top shelf and one of the highlights of my Sunday afternoons. Don’t forget that you’re crushing it out there, even if it doesn’t feel like it sometimes.
Lee, I'm on for the ride with whatever you do. You made me love film again and your positivity has helped get me through some rough patches. And I'm so excited to see your take on Ted Lasso!
I have watched every single video on this channel at least once and some 3-4 times and I think you should absolutly try stuff, I will be watching. Your positivity is great and thank you for rescuing star wars for me 😜
16:14 - Such a strange connection, but I _also_ first learned about cross-hatching bullets by watching the 1988 film _The Bear_ when I was a little kid. Still remember the papa bear roaring into the hunter's face in the end...
I just wanted to say that youre work on here actually got me into streaming. And while im not big it has been a great release for me and has helped my mental greatly. I truly hope you keep doing this. From the person you inspired
Been wondering when this would release/come out. Always a fun watch
I'd happily watch anything you make, however different it is from the EGA videos. That being said, I'd really miss the EGA videos if they were gone for good. I absolutely love this format!
Your channel is probably the only one I regularly recommend to others. You helped me shed the negativity that being online brings to everything, and helped me more openly embrace that I love all star wars, and just movies in general. I will do my best to watch your next video. In terms of helping you out, is it better to watch here or nebula? I can try to remember to do both, just letting one play in the background or something.
That long shot ... I really was out of the breath for the entire shot ... It was truly the best action sequence I've seen in years. Absolutely amazing. Every second you go "Holy moly it's not over yet ?!"
I would just like to say, I look forward to your new stuff. You are the reason that I’ve watched some movies that I wouldn’t have watched otherwise (Detective Pikachu being among them). I would just like to encourage you to keep going and I’ll follow along. Thanks for being a ray of sunshine and positivity on a platform that can often be very negative. ❤
VERY EXCITED for new kinds of content from this channel! Your optimistic analysis is unique and enthralling. Something about almost relentless praise of different media is extremely refreshing, comforting, and pure fun. Thank you for all you do, cannot wait for more!!!
I'm mostly commenting for the next week announcement and the obligatory algorithm boost, but here it goes. I haven't seen any of the "John Wick" films yet, but your videos are a blast and make them all the more intriguing to watch, and making entertaining, wholesome, honest and smart videos about films -loved and not- is a ray of hope and sunshine in a medium (internet) and site (YT) that desperately need them. I haven't watched "Ted Lasso", I just see that people really appreciate it, and I hope your next projects get the love and attention they deserve. Best wishes for that, and have a great and safe summer!
Do whatever you want on this channel! Ever since I found this place Ive been sitting here going through your video library! Loving it man!
Saw this movie in theaters. Absolutely loved it. This franchise is amazing

I am down for anything you put out. Your videos are always a joy to watch. Keep up the amazing work and congrats on becoming a father. Much love to your family :)
