The Marker was always in play. Santino told John that if he stayed retired he wouldn't use the marker on John out of respect. But since John came back Santino took the opportunity to use the marker

[@HypeVectorPrime]

Why did dude try and kill john after the sister job? Easy. He wanted his sister dead so as to gain a seat of power, but that whole job was to be a secret because if everyone knew he had his sister killed his reputation would suffer. So in order to keep the secret he had to try and avenge his sister. Made perfect sense to me.

[@urielfernandez4366]

Hey Nick, Charon is pronounced KHA-ron. He's named after Charon, the ferryman of Hades, who carries the souls of the dead across the River Styx. The dead would have to give him a coin for his services. The same goes for JW's Charon, when John gives him a gold coin in order to use the services of the Continental. Awesome!

[@aarons.2323]

Andy's played Hades a lot. I'm disappointed he didn't put it together.

[@RockinSmack]

I knew someone must have set this straight.

[@DJKento]

I don’t think John killed Santino for the reasons Nick is saying. He’s literally going to be UNTOUCHABLE if he gets to the high table. We’re talking about a guy who’s willing to kill his own sister to grab power. He is without morals or scruples. John knows if he lets him live it could ruin everything in their society.

[@laughwithmarc]

Agreed. His sister even just outright says what's going to happen with Santino and I think that resonated with John.

[@Lauren-zx3gx]

They 100% ignored the dialogue in that scene, and its meant to explain why he makes the decision that he does at the end.

[@mikekasabion]

Idk like his sister was on the high table and still killable, and there’s no possible way that Santino being on the high table is worse for John Wick than being excommunicated. TBH it doesn’t make sense, that being said, I didn’t have a problem with it. It was unearned but I don’t really care 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ArkAynJoel]

On rewatching John Wick 2 after playing Hades, I realized that Lance Reddick's character is named Charon. That's the name of the ferryman of who carries souls to the underworld and takes payment in coins. This absolutely blew my mind.

[@SpaghettiBurritos]

These guys are way too good at hyping me up for movies I've already seen multiple times. Love it!

[@nicktiznado8492]

He killing a man with f***ing pencil! Who does that?! I freaking love this movie

John wick movies are so rewatchable .....best franchise to hit us in recent memory

[@nicknorthrip]

If you're just listening to the audio, Nick's Keanu is spot on....don't tell him that though.

[@oak3785]

tim is not ready for the knives in the third movie if he loves throwing guns

[@JDEdwards2331]

John Wick 3 is coming. I think your ranking of the John Wick movies depends on how you feel about three different things. 1. Story. 2. World Building. 3. Action i think John Wick One goes: Action, World Building, Story John Wick Two: World Building, Action, Story John Wick Three: Action, Story, World Building the issue is that we would also have to assign points to each one to really measure the differences so like.. John Wick One: Action 8/10, World Building: 9/10, Story 7/10. Story is overly simple but effective. John Wick Two: World Building: 10/10, Action 9/10, Story 7/10. I think the story is sloppy but the world building is God Tier. John Wick Three: Action 10/10, Story 9/10, World Building 7/10. Three makes the decision to just leap frog from the impressive world building of Two and just GET IN THE FUCKING ACTION. Wooooo boy the action. I think the Story is fantastic in three as well. Again i maybe all the way wrong with this.

[@rashrit]

The reason he doesn't name the dog is to prevent any sort of attachment to another being and the inevitable hurt that will cause him. The repeated dialogues asking him what the dog's name is reinforce that aspect of the character and the fact that he has nothing left to live for. D'Antonio took everything from him, anything that rooted him in a normal life when he destroyed his house. After that, everything John can be is the boogeyman and that's why he kills D'Antonio on continental grounds because he knows he can't escape this life anymore and every assassin in the world hunting him wouldn't really be any different than what his life has become already. Great review guys keep it up!

[@MelodicQuest]

The dog doesn't have a name because he doesn't want to get attached

[@dropoffstergaming]

The bathtub scene traumatized me when I saw it in theaters because it was so realistic, I basically refuse to look at the screen in every rewatch lol

[@calebbonebrake6486]

I'm not sure if you ever get any clarity on this, as I'm only half an hour in, but the character of Lance Reddick is Charon, pronounced like Care-on. In greek mythology Charon was the boatman who ferried souls to the underworld. They had to pay him in coins, like the movie. There's actually a great video done by Movies with Mikey that shows all the connections between John Wick and Greek mythology. You should check it out!

[@mjspresents]

Daaaaamn, those Keanu impressions were pretty spot on, Nick. Holy shit. 1:16:00. Nick was the right guy to do this plot. Damn lol.

[@usedfuzzbox]

The first film is such a fave, I really didn't enjoy this as much as that....but it really grew on me as time went on, and after a few more viewings, i think its underrated now :D

[@SensaiChill]

Definitely. I feel like 3 took the best parts of 1 & 2 but that left two without the over the top action crown (JW3) or the most resonating story (JW1). 2 arguably has the best of the world building

[@reflectionist]

"Did I break my back!?" "No. You just hurt yourself. And you need to stop eating so much ice cream." LMFAO I FUCKIN" LOST IT

[@reflectionist]

So.... ...Is nobody going to mention the fact that the Doctor is played by Randall Duk Kim, who played The Keymaker in The Matrix Reloaded?

[@Phenomenal5GameR]

Also one of the songs played during the band playing in Rome used to be called Coronation before they changed it.

[@SensaiChill]

John Wick 2 quietly is the lynchpin to the whole series probably going forward. The World building and relationships here helped separate it enough from 1 & built a space for 3 to do more. It's like the Anti-Iron Man 2.

[@Woozie87]

did anyone else catch Peter from Shaun of the Dead was the guy who was showing off the guns for John before the sisters party

[@arturohigginbotham9231]

I love you guys. Your videos are awesome. Especially your In Reviews.

[@littleleafers]

Of the John Wick movies I stand by 2 being the best. Good antagonists and world building really bring this one home for me.

[@Phenomenal5GameR]

John doesn’t have a name for the dog yet because, the last dog was killed so quickly he never got a chance to connect with it yet. So to name this one, John is worried it may be a waste of time, considering how much turmoil he’s currently in.

[@Phenomenal5GameR]

Thinking about it, it’s super fucking sad! 😔😞

[@MelodicQuest]

Tim is gonna LOVE John Wick 3

[@3EliteGamers]

Why is Nick saying Peter Stormare as Peter Stormar? It's "mare" like a horse, not "mar", or have I been wrong this entire time?

[@pargatsinghlives]

It’s actually even crazier pronounced in his language but -mar is closer afaik

[@bennetthasty7886]

1000% Uncle Nick does a perfect Lawrence Fishburn

[@Fa1con87]

i get you cant kill in the hotel, but there must be a rule about running your business from there as well. otherwise every villian would never leave? the hotel would have every crime boss in and the police would surround it.

As a New Yorker, Joey was kinda right. The Continental building and stock exchange/dark night building aren’t the same. A few block away from each other tho

[@mutedmayday]

My list has this above the first one just bc it starts building the world

[@TheBarackAttack]

Best moment of this review is Nick being an old man and not being able to tell the difference between real life conversation and something he read in the comments...

[@HypeVectorPrime]

Speaking of oh shit moments, i will never not be shocked by him taking an ink pen and jamming it all the way up into that mans taint. Hit man or not, that's fucked all the way up.

[@therudim3nt728]

There's nothing particularly off about the John Wick bounty. You can't just kill a member of the High Table. There are consequences. John hoped that when bad guy became a part of the High Table, he would run interference as a way of settling their debt once and for all. Bad guy decides not to do that... sorta. He puts the hit on John as punishment for killing a member of the High Table, but he limits it to NYC. This way, he sorta makes good on settling things with John. Afterall, John can leave now, free and clear. He can leave the world of assassins and go and do whatever he wants for the rest of his life-- so long as he stays out of NYC. More importantly, by making NYC off-limits it makes it harder for John to try and get revenge. John decides not to go for the deal, and goes back and kills him. Killing a second member of the High Table is the reason the bounty is increased and taken international. Now, important to understand, the High Table and the Continental are separate groups. One does not control the other. They have worked out a specific relationship, but the Continental rules apply no matter who put the bounty on you-- even the High Table. So, John could have technically gone and stayed in the Continental and been safe from the High Table... except for the fact that in killing the bad guy on Continental grounds, he broke Continental rules as well. This gets him excommunicated from the Continental, which also carries a sentence of death, only adding to the hit already on him from the High Table.

[@koinzell13]

Weird sign off from Tim wishing all the dogs in John Wick 3 would die. Strong stance to take

[@tomcaswell1529]

Putting 1 above 2 is insane.

I remember my FB review of John Wick 3 was the 1st 30 mins was the most action movie, any action movie, had ever action movied....yet it still wasn’t my favorite.

[@the_grimby1722]

I always thought the order was like 1 2 3, or 2 1 3. 3 was a little too nebulous and some of the canine scenes felt like they lasted an eternity. That being said, I think 1 & 2 are pretty much equal in quality, and three is probably a step behind.

The Wick trilogy of films is far and away better than Matrix 2 or 3. Matrix One is the best still

Ruby Rose and the Main bad ass villain being a mute, ruined this movie. Its a good money but they really dropped the ball on her character. Look at john wick 3s main bad ass villain, he's amazing and it make the money that much better.
