Definitely like the new set up! Didn't mind the softness of the picture at all. Whatever is most comfortable for you is how you should watch it. Another fun reaction! Thanks for giving me something to do on this otherwise, uneventful Saturday night haha. I totally agree about the way they filmed and choreographed the action. I don't like most action movies either because its just non stop fast cuts and gets overwhelming. The way they film the action in this is mostly in long uninterrupted shots. Which adds realism and the choreography is actually quite beautiful despite how brutal it is. The other John Wick movies go more into the the mythology of the assassin organization. They also got a bigger budget, so even bigger and more elaborate sets and action sequences. Super fun movies. Would love to see your reaction to those as well.

The new setup looks very comfy, I am jealous. Love the movie, was happy to see you having a good time with it too. It was neat seeing when it came out, it wasn't very high budget (relatively speaking) at around 20-30 million, and didn't have a ton of advertising. But the action scenes were a really nice change of pace from what Hollywood had been doing for a while that word of mouth really helped make the movie into a big deal. It was fun seeing you have some of the same thoughts a lot of other people had back in 2014. The movie director Chad Stahelski was originally a stuntman, who actually was Keanu Reeves' stuntman during the original Matrix movies, and you can really see the passion he had for making the action land, rather than just letting it be filler. It's neat when people like that get a chance to really make something, and it works out. Always great seeing an old favorite movie with new eyes, hope everything only gets comfier.

Setup looks really cool, only thing i would suggest is the light to the right on your intro is a little to bright. A little bit more dimmed and it would be warmer but its already really nice and it looks very comfortable and cozy. As i wrote you in the PM, you will love the Series. The next Movies will get you deeper into the Lore of the World and opens it up to more Characters, like a good friend from the Matrix. btw Kill Count Info https://www.visu.info/john-wick-kill-count

Really enjoyed your reactions, its always like watching a great movie again with a friend. I think your new setup looks fine but you should do what makes you most comfortable. I am usually a purist when it comes to movies but I have to say I love the little edits you add to the videos. The "bonk" when someone got hit on the head in this one, the avalanche that buries the Fellowship of the Ring- then cut to end credits, the 1960s Batman edits in 'Batman Begins". They all made me laugh.

I have always thought that Willem Dafoe was John's friend and warns him that the female assassin is in the room by shooting the pillow to wake him up. Sorry this post is so long, but one more thing.

You remarked about the unique way the gun play is staged. "Gun Kata" and "Gun Fu" were the terms coined to describe this type of action. Kata is a Japanese martial arts term used to describe the "dance-like" moves the practitioners go through when performing physical techniques against imaginary opponents to display their knowledge of the correct form. There I'm done.

The new setup is cool; glad you're more comfortable! If you want to see a very young Keanu Reeves doing some very silly stuff, you might enjoy "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" from 1989 and its sequel "Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey" (1991). There was also a third one made decades later called "Bill & Ted Face the Music," which is also fun, but of course he's much older in that. :)

I did not notice any quality issues during this reaction. The image was bright and clear and the sound was perfect. No complaints here. You mentioned you needed something for your sloth pad. Maybe get one of those bed trays that you could slide around. It could hold you snacks, drinks. sloth pad and tissues if needed. Another bonus previously mentioned was being able to see Seil more during the reaction. It's sweet seeing the love between the two of you. Thanks again and can't wait for the next installment of Movies with Mary.

Brian Jones

Glad you enjoyed it Mary, and I like the new setup. I look forward to seeing what you think of the sequels to this. The other two films are really good as well, and broaden the story of the entire criminal network and give more backstory about Wick as well. Hope we get to see your reaction to those soon. At their core, the John Wick films are essentially the bastard child of a bunch of stuntmen and people who have been doing action films for decades. Stahelski, one of the directors, was Keanu Reeves stunt double as far back as the first Matrix film. The main goal for the Wick films was story through action shot creatively, which they achieved quite marvelously. And so far, they've managed to actually up the bar on each successive movie in the series.

Haven’t done the watch-along yet but I’m guessing by the shot of her face Mary just watched the scene with the dog.

I now have three "wait for it" moments with Mary lol. The first one is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 when Drax tells Mantis "You are beautiful" and Mary goes YAY and I was like "wait for it" and then Drax says "on the inside" and Mary reaction was the best lol. Another was Squad Game when the step dad of the little girl gave the guy money he needed and Mary is like "oh you're a hero" and I was like "wait for it" and the step dad tells the guy to not see the little girl and more and Mary goes "you asshole" lol. Now it's John Wick when Losef kills the dog and Mary says "I hate this movie" but wait for it, "I love this movie." I like to live vicariously through John Wick. I would like to go in public dressed as John Wick lol. John Wick 4 was suppose to come out this year, but it was delayed to 2023. For no reason. If you look closely, the dog John takes in the end, was going to be "put down." There was what look like a red stamp saying put down or something like that. John saved him. There is a video on Youtube where Keanu Reeves reads questions people have for him while he is surrounded by puppies.
