    The directors did an interview with the Screen Junkies people while reacting to the Honest Trailer for John Wick before John Wick 2’s release. They said that the gold coins are basically to let the people know that they’re “in the know”. It’s weird because it seems like one coin can get you a meal from the restaurant but can also a room at the hotel, but that was their explanation for it. Also the cops are aware of the assassins/organization but let them do their business and don’t interrupt them as long as no innocent people are killed. It’s a pretty cool world the directors created and I can’t wait to see more of it in John Wick 3, and maybe even your guys reaction to the sequel.

    A quick clarification re: Brandon Lee: While you can absolutely be injured by blanks, that is not what happened in this Lee's case. Someone on the firearms team for The Crow had the bright idea of making their own inert rounds for a scene by taking live rounds, pulling the bullet, dumping the powder charge, and re-inserting the bullet in the cartridge. The problem is that this still leaves a live primer in the base of the cartridge (a little brass cup filled with an explosive mixture that detonates when struck by the firing pin, igniting the main powder charge. It's the little circle you see in the middle of the bottom of a cartridge casing, usually with a dent in it if it's been fired). That means when they used their "dummy" round, that primer went off with enough force to send the real bullet part-way down the barrel of the weapon.
    Then, when they filmed the scene with Lee, that same weapon was loaded with a blank consisting of a crimped cartridge with a powder charge. The combination of the bullet in the barrel and the blank round basically added up to a complete, nearly full power round. There were a LOT of ways to avoid this, starting with not being unsafe and attempting to roll your own dummy rounds, moving on to not leaving the primer inserted in your "dummy" round, then to not clearing and making safe weapons between scenes...

      If you do something stupid (look up Jon-Erik Hexum), you can even potentially be killed by a blank.
      However you are absolutely correct, Brandon was killed by a bullet not the wadding in a blank. He was 6 or 8 feet from the actor who fired the gun, and at that distance the wadding wouldn't do a thing. It doesn't matter how fast it leaves the barrel, it's a tiny piece of paper, that would slow down to harmless in 2 feet or so.
      For clarification, Hexum killed himself demonstrating how harmless his blanks were, firing it within inches of his temple. He fractured his skull, driving bone shards into his brain, but the wadding (even at that distance) didn't penetrate his skull.
      I really hate when people perpetuate those myths like Calvin did. My "favorite" Crow myth is they used the actual shooting in the film. Hell, most people I've asked claim the wrong scene as the one they were filming when he was shot.

    @B20C0 5 лет назад +51

    Just to elaborate on Brandon Lee's death:
    The problem wasn't the blanks they used. The same revolver which ultimately killed Brandon Lee was used in another scene in a close up. To look realistic, they wanted dummy rounds in the revolver but instead of buying them they created their own by taking live bullets and removing the powder out of the cartridges. The problem was: They left the primers in because they were idiots. So when the revolver was fired in another scene, the bullet got propelled just enough to get stuck in the first part of the barrel and nobody noticed it.
    In the scene where Brandon Lee died they used perfectly safe blanks (meaning there is no projectile whatsoever). But of course, with a bullet stuck in the barrel already, a blank turns into a live round.
    The shot which hit him was fired from about 12 feet away, it wasn't even point blank.

    Guys, the puppy represents Helen (Wick's wife) and the type of person John fell in love with. So, aside from the puppy being a cute puppy, she also represents Helen's love for John. They didn't just kill a puppy, they besmirched the legacy of Helen and her love for John.She saved him in so many ways that the memory of her love was sustaining him in his time of grief. Upon second and third viewing I also became aware of Willem DaFoe's character. He was the only one that bothered to show up to the funeral. Then I understood the relationship he had with Wick. He always had John's back. To me, there's more to that story. I can't wait to see Chapter 4. By the way, I'm glad you guys noticed the near perfect world building the writers and producers created, so fucking awesome!

    One of the great things about this movie is you can actually count the bullets he fires and its very accurate, especially the club scene when he runs out, reloads, and shoots the guy in the face. Prior to that the amount of bullets expended is accurate. Such a little detail means so much.

    This movie set the bar of action movies so up high! Like all the amazing fight coordination, all details too like Keanu's form when shooting & handling a gun, clearing room, hand to hand combat all which shows his long and hard work training for. Reloading constantly and not just once or couple times like in other movies. And other details that just changed action movies or at least fight scenes. Jason Bourne was big for its fighting but when I watched the 1st one has shakey cam and etc that you don't really fully know or least see what's happening or being done as it was likely done like that to hide it was a stunt double. Keanu training and doing most of his stunts makes the movie so much more. The camera can be still on them, showing them clearly and not whole bunch of cuts put together or distorted view of it.
