The director has said that the first 3 John Wick movies takes place over the period of a week to a week and a half, and the fourth film is about six months after the third movie, so that should give you a timeline to go by when you watch the other movies.
I like Wick's tattoo on his back. "FORTES FORTUNA ADIUVAT" is a Latin saying. It can be translated as "Fortune favors the brave / courageous / capable." 💪🏽👌🏽
Director Chad Stahelski is a fan of many action genres, including Asian martial arts. The mirror scene he said was "borrowed" from or inspired by Bruce Lee's "Enter The Dragon" mirror scene. JW 3 has a scene inspired by a Clint Eastwood western, and JW4 has an INSANE scene that I won't spoil for you but you will need ice packs for your jaw because it's gonna drop wondering HOW they did it with so few scene stitches. The music sync-up with it is badass too! Folks who have seen JW4 will know what scene it is.
The ending scene where everyone freezes in place is ironically one of the best "Action" scenes of all time imho. Heard a bunch of "OH" and "DAMN" all over the theater. 😂
I think the reason I like these movies so much is that John isn't a good guy, he just fubars other bad guys. He's outnumbered and outgunned yet survives everything thrown at him
You are the best movie reactions on the planet. I think the mirror scene you raved about toward end was likely inspired by Bruce Lee's enter the dragon movie. It had a mirror battle sequence toward end that was really groundbreaking for the time.
The manager of the Rome Continental actor Franco Nero played bad-ass characters in his younger days, the original Django. In a deleted scene, John had an audience with the Pope who knew him personally. John made a courtesy visit to inform the Pope he was going after Gianna D’Antonio. Not Ruby Rose, Cassian was the good one, the best fighter John had to defeat.
Colette. Very nice reaction. It's a joy watching with you. Too many reactors can't stop talking (and not saying anything worthwhile), then 5 mins later they don't know what's going on because they weren't listening to the dialogue. I have tons of movies I recommend to people, but I am just going to leave you 3 suggestions.They are older and you may have seen some or all of them. If you haven't they are all worth watching. Good stories. Great casts. They are Tombstone, The Sting, and The Great Escape. Hope you consider them. Enjoy!
John Wick is kinda like Deadpool without the sarcasm. He's the ultimate antihero. Trivia moment, when people say "Oh." after hearing John's name, it's a tongue in cheek reference to Keanu's character in "Bill And Ted's Excellent Adventure". Great reaction Miss! ❤
John is the loose end santino wanted to tie up. He couldn’t have the high table knowing that he was the one to order his sister’s assassination. Especially if he was to take his sister’s place at the high table
Not to mention, John still has all the reason to take Santino after blowing his house up, with none of the protection included by the marker. Santino knew he had a small window when John would be vulnerable and had to act quickly. He just failed to realize he needed a small army to even nick the Baba Yaga.
@Anino_Makata but if you actually think about it, it makes absolutely no sense lol ruby rose could've just stayed in the car and waited for him to come back through the gate the same way he went in and shot him with a deer rifle, no hit squad no fight just a head shot
Great reaction Colette like always, this one bring back so many memories from The Matrix seeing Keanu and Fishburne together on screen. This one is more packed in action i really love this franchise its keeps getting better and better, and the total kills keeps increasing in this one John Wick killed 128, other fun-facts about this one. The character of the Italian tailor is played by the actual costume designer of the John Wick films, Luca Mosca. Work on John Wick Chapter 2 reached an impasse when it came to the scene in which Wick must take out Gianna D’Antonio - Stahelski was unsure how to bring it to life. “Something wasn’t feeling right,” he told on an interview, and Reeves came up with the solution: Gianna should end her own life in a disturbing sequence in which she strips off, gets in a bath and ends it all. Keep up the good work.
I’d love them to do a prequel John Wick that shows him meeting Helen and asking to be allowed to leave their world to live peacefully with Helen. 19:06 the first three movies happen in less than a month. Winston (manager) treats John like a son. He always calls him Johnathan and never any other variation. 24:25 I think the pope was a code word for someone in their world. 37:16 he has to save face and make it look like someone else had John do it. If the Table realized that Santino had his sister killed for her seat he’d lose his seat and probably be dead.
The ultimate old west gun fight vibe is in The Matrix in the subway the first time Neo fights an agent. There's even a tumble weed-like newspaper blowing in the wind!
Those stylized subtitles have been part of the films since the first movie. I'm not sure what version of the first John Wick you were watching but the dvd and the theatrical versions have those stylized subtitles.
Re: no cameras in mirrors or glass reflections. Maybe they used something ahead/behind/around the camera equipment to digitally remove it all in editing?
I've always wondered how things would've gone had John at least heard Santino out before refusing him so Winston would've known what he was needed to do.
John shot Gianna for two reasons. First, in order to fulfill the marker, she had to die by his hand. Second, before she cut herself, she asked John if he feared damnation. Gianna was Catholic, so self-deletion would have been a mortal sin. John also shot her out of respect, so she wouldn't consider herself damned.
41:43 the word for that area is the perineum. It's region between the anus and the genitals, and it's a viable kill area because it's one of the three areas on the body where an artery is close to the skin. Those are the neck, the armpit, and the perineum. The pudendal artery is the one that provides blood to the genital area, and can be hit if you get something up between the bones in the pelvic cavity. So he didn't stab him in the groin, he stabbed him in what society has lovingly labelled as "The Taint."
If you pay attention getting the car back was not about the car, it was about the picture of his wife he had left in the glove compartment, he clearly does not care as much about the car as that picture
You should watch 'The Neon Demon' - the cinematography is stunningly gorgeous! Also, 'Atomic Blonde' is a great movie, and has an incredible fight scene (with a female kicking ass)!
Normally, for shotguns, calling the shells "bullets" makes gun owners cringe. But in the case of the John Wick movies, we're assuming they're using slugs, which are indeed bullets. Even if a body armor could stop a shotgun slug, said slug would still cause severe trauma, breaking bones, etc.
Director of Photography Dan Lausten should have been Oscar nominated for this movie. But in this year he also shot THE SHAPE OF WATER, so he kind of cancelled himself out.
26:09 The tattoo John has on his back, "fortis fortuna adiuvat" means "fortune favors the brave". Not the bold. It could also mean fortune favors the strong. Depend on how you interpret it.
Let’s watch the screaming, please 😂😂😂. Some of us live in apartments. You’ll enjoy the next one too. I don’t know about the fourth, it seems like I’m the only one who thinks #4 is trash. But I’m looking forward to your reaction to #3.
Now that I know there are more cherries, I would like to see Colette to do vid with her sisters/ sister if they have similar personalities the dynamics will be hilarious to watch. And something ultra violent to watch would have me in stitches I hope.
LOL, there's no way that number is possibly accurate. I mean, even if he treated training as a full-time job 8 hours a day, 6 days a week (which would almost certainly cause injuries from the physical strain of training), it would still take over a year of JUST training at that schedule to get to 3000 hours.
@ColetteCherry In reference to how they filmed the mirror scenes at the end of the film, this is just my opinion, but I'm thinking 2-way mirrors. That's what makes the most sense to me, besides a lot of CGI.
The thing about Santino is I believe he’s a selfish opportunist who is a little immature to think he could get everything he wanted, even trying to skirt the rules about marking the marker complete assuming all would go as he planned. Clearly he underestimated John’s resourcefulness and just how far he would go for his own vengeance
Miss Colette... please understand that the cameramen and editors of John Wick are men of focus, filled with commitment, and sheer f**king will... :) Of course only them could replicate and improve Bruce Lee's "Enter the Dragon" mirror room fight scene! From that and 1947 Orson Welles "The Lady from Shanghai", thats from were the ideia comes!... The cinematographer realm of blocking, moving mirrors, being behind other mirrors to refract the 1st ones, having people in black and mixing practical effects with digital effects... FX and VFX
I think there are two reasons that John shot her after she slit her wrists in the bath tub. 1. He had to be the one that technically killed her before her heart stopped beating. 2. It is highly likely that because of the Italian heritage, she was likely Catholic. To take your own life is a cardinal since and you won’t see Heaven; so John taking her life kept from eternal damnation. I like to think the main reason he did it was number 2 because he help her hand and comforted his friend as she transitioned over.
Not sure when you're going to record JW3 so in advance, a piece of information that's non-spoilery to the plot but may help, one of the prominent characters in the movie is played by a non-binary actor Asia Kate Dillon who go by they/them pronouns and their character is also left ambiguous to their gender, thought this could be somehing worth knowing beforehand to avoid any issues.

40:53 Your reaction to the pencil scene is so far the best of all John Wick 2 reaction videos I've ever seen. 👍😁

I’m convinced half the time they digitally painted out the cameras and the other half the mirrors are CG
Could be. I was thinking 2-way mirrors.
Or all of the mirrors are just blue screen
I think the reason I like these movies so much is that John isn't a good guy, he just fubars other bad guys. He's outnumbered and outgunned yet survives everything thrown at him
Like Deadpool: “I’m just a bad guy who gets paid to fuck up worst guys”
John Wick isn’t a “bad guy” though.
@aj897 He’s an killer for hire just like them. He’s definitely a bad guy just a nicer one.
@@aj897 Uhh, yes he is. What's next, are you going to claim Walter White wasn't a bad guy?
@@kratosGOWI was just thinking that. John Wick is an anti-hero like Deadpool.
I like that she picked up on the Matrix connection, a lot of people don't point that out.

Fun fact, in the movie "The Pope's Exorcist" released in 2023 (6 years after John Wick 2), Franco Nero plays the role of the Pope.
Everybody is excited for the pencil and then no one is excited for the pencil.
John wants to retire. When the Assassin's asking for his help they will not take no for an answer.
John Wick films get more and more stylized as they go on. Very cool cinematography.
Happy birthday, Colette!!
And thank you for your content!
41:33 that dude is actually a world famous sumo wrestler, he's huge asf 😂

32:10 They don't want suspicion that Santino got his own sister killed, so they gotta kill John to cover it up. "Loose ends."
John Wick is kinda like Deadpool without the sarcasm. He's the ultimate antihero. Trivia moment, when people say "Oh." after hearing John's name, it's a tongue in cheek reference to Keanu's character in "Bill And Ted's Excellent Adventure".
Great reaction Miss! ❤
25:54 Fun fact, the gun guy also did the voice for Darth Maul in The Phantom Menace.
And the roommate in Shaun Of The Dead.
Hey Colette, nice to meet you. Thank you for the welcome, I'm a fan of John too. Love your take also. Such a great, and brutal series. Love your work.
oouuu she's an actress now
the john wick series NO DOUBT takes inspiration from video games, and that culminates in the 4th movie
John is the loose end santino wanted to tie up. He couldn’t have the high table knowing that he was the one to order his sister’s assassination. Especially if he was to take his sister’s place at the high table

@@AJ0223 it seems as though her character liked to let her targets know ahead of time was coming, before she killed them. Thrill of chase maybe
Awesome reaction of my favorite John Wick movie!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
FYI in an interview they said that in the museum scene the camera was removed with CGI in post.. Still, impressive work
Hi Colette hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤️
2 more movies and a 3 part episode of "The continental from the world of John wick" best soundtrack and action scenes.. before John wick
The violin assassin is Heidi Moneymaker the stunt double for Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow in all Marvel movies.
And is also Chad Stahelski's wife.
The first John Wick “I want to see the pencil scene”
John Wick 2 Pencil scene “aghhhhhh” 🙀😱

Vfx magic is usually done to hide the camera on the mirrors but sometimes angle shots works too
John Wick is the ultimate serial killer
The ultimate old west gun fight vibe is in The Matrix in the subway the first time Neo fights an agent. There's even a tumble weed-like newspaper blowing in the wind!
Those stylized subtitles have been part of the films since the first movie. I'm not sure what version of the first John Wick you were watching but the dvd and the theatrical versions have those stylized subtitles.
The pencil scene reminds me of Joker.
Have you ever played the Hitman games yet? That's the closest you'll get to feeling like John Wick yourself.
Oh if you wanna see realistic, keanu did some bad-ass training, hes John Wick in real life now.
Re: no cameras in mirrors or glass reflections. Maybe they used something ahead/behind/around the camera equipment to digitally remove it all in editing?
'I allow very few people to call me Jonathon. You weren't one of em.. '
Keanu created that reload style, and now it's a real thing, not just a movie thing
Not really, it was taught all around the world on special forces and police academies way before movies. But he certainly made it more popular
@@galadballcrusher8182 sorry about the mistake. Indeed, had never seen it before... Even in my military service

34:00 Last gun is a shotgun-type, not just one bullet.
Love that you don't vulgar language. And blot it out where you can. Good job.
The mirror scene comes from a way older film called enter the dragon
If you pay attention getting the car back was not about the car, it was about the picture of his wife he had left in the glove compartment, he clearly does not care as much about the car as that picture

That's Ruby Rose , she played Batwoman on the CW in the Arrowverse
Love your reactions.
you should watch the videos of Keanu getting ready for the movies with professional shooters at the gun range
I loved your Matrix reference chime ins 😂
John wick - He's Grieved
John wick 2- He's Raged
John wick 3 - He's Bargained
John wick 4- He's Accepted
People hate turtle necks but it’s comfortable 😂
This is my favorite movie in the series. Just amazing all around. The next two really turn up the stunts
Nice puppy.
Director of Photography Dan Lausten should have been Oscar nominated for this movie.
But in this year he also shot THE SHAPE OF WATER, so he kind of cancelled himself out.
They spent $6,000,000 just to construct the area used in the final fight during John Wick 3.
26:09 The tattoo John has on his back, "fortis fortuna adiuvat" means "fortune favors the brave". Not the bold. It could also mean fortune favors the strong. Depend on how you interpret it.
He was actually trained by ex military for his fighting and gun techniques for the movies
I love this movie it's hard to choose but it might just be my favorite one of the series
the uncle is Peter Stormore was in Constantine with Keanu.
Let’s watch the screaming, please 😂😂😂. Some of us live in apartments. You’ll enjoy the next one too. I don’t know about the fourth, it seems like I’m the only one who thinks #4 is trash. But I’m looking forward to your reaction to #3.
Really? I’m the opposite. I feel like the fight scenes in 3 are too drawn out and 4 was a better balance.
The way the camera is not seen is through green screen clothing/cover
But the sun shine was in the 1st movie. His 1st drive, with the gas station and with him doing doughnuts before daisy died
Oh yeah mochi have best time I want to 😂
Now that I know there are more cherries, I would like to see Colette to do vid with her sisters/ sister if they have similar personalities the dynamics will be hilarious to watch. And something ultra violent to watch would have me in stitches I hope.
“HERE’S JOHNNY!!”
@9:35 "Not many cuts in this fight", Colettes editor instantly makes 3 million cuts in the video.. . .
I have to for copyright
@@ColetteCherry I know, just a bit funny and ironic.
Damn i need this scream as my ring tone🤣 that is just epic.
oh and you are just beautiful 😍.Really liked to watch this reaction.

He apparently trained for 3000 hours with weapons to make it look like the real thing.
LOL, there's no way that number is possibly accurate.

hi same dir and stunt team did" nobody" starring bob odenkirk . many say its as good as john wick...please consider " nobody" . thx
John Wick could absolutely so easily take out the pope. It would likely be a rather boring assignment.

Great Reaction To This Great Movie Sequel, Sweetheart
lol there three more movies lol that’s cute, I’m sure you didn’t hear of the one they are making 3.5
they use cgi/vfx to get the camera out of mirror or reflections
A really awesome movie.🇺🇲📺🇺🇲
You gotta get use to the pencil
Think the word Cherry was looking for here is "gooch" he stabbed him in the gooch
You put the camera behind a two way mirror.
