2 good trailers back to back. What a night.
Like the music for the first one better but goddamn if the action isn't balls-to-the-wall awesome. February can't come soon enuff.
 
Feel like this is gonna become a Taken-like franchise, but damn this looks dope.

The problem with Taken was the idea/title. They should have titled it "Bryan Mills" and then they could have had movies about this life like Wick where one of them they take his daughter.

edit: Trailer looks awesome.
 
Incomprehensible movie series. The fetishizing of carefully aiming pistol shots to enemy heads is sickening and not even entertaining. Dud actor Keanu Reeves makes you long for the quality acting in Taken 3.

Lol, what my shitpost deserved I guess
 
This movie is not needed, at all.
First one was great tho.

The first movie was also not really 'needed'. But it was a good movie, so it was ok.

... can we use the same argument here? The second movie will be as 'needed' as the first one, not really, but if it's a cool action flick, who is going to complain?
 
Not feeling it. Movie's gonna fall victim to excess. It needs to be Fury Road levels of good to do any justice to that trailer and to the original.

Which won't happen.
 
that cast tho...that cast

also mute assasin is straight up anime bullshit (the good kind of bullshit), but then again John Wick is all anime.
 
Common did a good job in Run All Night as some sort of Terminator/Assassin, good addition to the cast here.

If that dog dies I riot though.
 
I can't put into words how much I want to play a John Wick game from the developers of Max Payne 3.

Ah well, John Wick 2 will have to do.
 
The 'secret society' thing in the first film is one of the good things about it, without it, it would feel a bit barebones.

John Wick 2 looks to be a stylish action film with great choreography, I look forward to seeing it in the cinema.

Anyway, I hope it doesn't go over the top with the action stuff (explosions/car chases) and it keeps it a bit more simple. The club scene was a great example of that.

The only comparison point between John Wick and Fury Road is that they're both throwbacks to how action movies used to be made. But John Wick was more of a straight up throwback while Fury Road was a throwback that was simultaneously roided up to ridiculous levels.
 
I haven't been to the movies in months, but I'm gonna have to go see this. I only saw the first John Wick recently, so I didn't get a loud and satisfying theater experience. Should be fun.
 
I saw an advance screening this month and was disappointed. It's still a 7/10, but the first half of the movie is a mess. The second half is pretty great though.

The main villain kind of sucks, though. He has a neat henchman (the deaf chick), but he's pretty boring. The movie has an "empire strikes back" like cliffhanger.

I was getting these vibes a bit, not so much the weak first half but the general feeling this movie is trying to do a whole lot more and I'm not sure if it can justify it outside of the action scenes. Well I'll just have to wait and see for myself.

A movie with characters we've never seen before is always needed.

I will see John Wick 2 at some point but everything in this trailer points towards it being everything a sequel shouldn't be. It's just more, more, more of everything.
