@antipodean not sure too many have gone to the level of Taken 4 or whatever one it was...
I mistakenly watched Taken 2. That's where that stopped thankfully. If they make a Wick IV (V ?) I won't be watching that either.

There is a sneak peak trailer for John Wick 4 from Comic-Con. I haven't seen it myself.

Cue more wooden acting from Keanu and absurdly contrived action scenes. If the producers had a sense of humour, they'd compile a mash up of the first three movies and nothing else.

@Tim just as a gauge, did you like the first 3?

@Kiwiwomble I saw the first John Wick and did not like it. It quickly became very boring. That is the only one I have seen.

I love John Wick - they’re like those 80s movies that @Tim loves, except watchable.
First one was funny. The rest didn't have the same absurdity.
Maybe Keanu’s limitations as an actor make it difficult to sustain a story arc over a series? See also: The Matrix trilogy.

He’s actually fucken terrible and not in a good ‘Arnie” way either.

Yep and he seems to basically play the same character, Matrix, Constantine, JW. Do you get the feeling the studio are milking him better than a scouser could?

Both examples are poor writing more than anything to do with the actor.
He has a narrow range, but he’s good within it. Not everyone is a character actor.
His main attribute is he’s charismatic. All subjective of course.

By-The-Way... (BTW)...
I seem to recall there's been at least one Ferner claiming(/bragging?) that they've never seen a single John Wick movie.
Give yourself a fucking massive upper-cut, then, when your stupid head is lying on the floor mouth agape, take your dick'n'balls and give yourself a wee tea-baggin'.John Wick movies are not clever. They are not original. They ARE derivative. But they also ARE a metric-fuck-tonne of fun.
If any fluffybunny claims to like classics such as Commando, Rambo, any HK-era-Woo, any Hollywood-era-Woo, any fucking stupid-fun-guns-and-shit-action-movies-of-EVER...
but NOT John Wick... you're either a lying hipster dipshit, a dead-set liar fluffybunny, a straight-up stupid fluffy-bunny, or fluffy-bunny retard.
AND... (Sorry - meant to find the quote from the retard Welsh player who threatened the wife of another player on twitter, and cleverly re-use that, and... just couldn't. Brain-too-dumb from watching stupid derivative americanised versions of gun-fu movies.) -
You’re going to have to explain about the Welsh player now. I’m interested.
