John Wick 2 Announced!

Will be disappointing. The set up was good for one move - like Taken - no more was needed.

There's nothing saying that it will be the exact same plot as the first one. I mean, the Raid 2 managed to be way different than the first film, even though it used the same style of action and had the same director. I mean, Wick is back in his role as an assassin this time, so I doubt we'd be getting another dog revenge film.

I beg to differ. PG-13 is what killed the Taken sequels, and that ain't happening here.

We need more rated R films like this. The fact that we're getting them is a cause for celebration.
 
Will this one have a story that might make me give approximately one rat hide about the supposedly good action scenes? It really is the burning question.

Magnificent news. Original movie brought such a breath of fresh air into a action genre. Keanu was pure badass, worldbuilding was great, action set pieces and editing were phenomenal.

I'm interested, John Wick was one of the best action movies I've seen in a long ass time. I want to see what they do to get Wick back in action this time because whomever does it has to be a big dumbass considering how many people Wick went through in the first movie. I also hope we got more good world building in this movie, I was happily surprised with the first movie's surprising amount of depth to its universe.

Yes! Wick was amazing! I'm thinking he's back!

Best news.

Loved the first one except for any time where Keanu spoke more than a word or two. He was at his best with simple nods, grunts and action.

As Adi Shankar said, nobody will make a sequel for a film that lost money. That happens only if true miracles happen.

I definitely liked Wick better than Dredd. I'll go see the sequel, but I guess I tend to worry a little when something neat and kind of unique gets a sequel.

how much did dredd make from dvd sales?
 
I'd love for this to be a prequel, show the events leading up to his retirement with a third John Wick focusing on events after the first movie to close the trilogy.

I want to watch the first movie, but I wanted an edited non-super depressing version please. Dogs dying are super upsetting.

Whatever it is they do with the movie please do not try and make it have a very involving story.

The best part of the first one was that it didn't take itself to seriously and get boggled down by a shitty story.
 
The first one was really fun, and I liked it quite a bit. The music especially. So, here's hoping the sequel -- which wasn't entirely necessary and worries me a bit -- is good.
