" I don't do stunts [...] in terms of the maths of it, I did about 97% of the action scenes in JW2 "

... only Keanu :)

The second shows new baddies, Riccardo Scamarcio and Ruby Rose, in what is likely to be the film’s signature set piece: a showdown in a blinding hall-of-mirrors art installation. “The mirror room was Chad’s idea,” says Reeves. “It’s his homage to Bruce Lee at the end of Enter The Dragon. The whole installation is a maze of mirrors where guys can pop out and disappear. It’s very cool and a lot of fun to fight in.”

Asian cinema remains a major influence second time around. “You go watch any of the great Hong Kong guys,” says director Chad Stahelski, “[you’re watching] wider shots; you're watching an extremely talented individual. If you're using fast editing to hide things, I call bullshit. That's cheating. Luckily, we have a cast member that can do it. Keanu’s been doing martial arts for 25 years. He's been trained by us, he's been trained by Yuen Wo Ping. He's been trained by Chen Yen.”

Reeves succinctly sums up the sequel: “It’s like going back to your favourite restaurant but this time, instead of getting to the fillet, you’re getting the porterhouse.”

Let's be real: the trailer for John Wick: Chapter 2 is completely over the top. The operatic chorus on the soundtrack, more gun play than you see in some full-length action films, Keanu Reeves's proto-Batman like growl — and it's still balls-out great. The first John Wick was more spare an action film than it gets credit for, while it looks like Chapter 2 has decided to go big. And we are just fine with that.

... and it all started with a small movie Keanu was filming in December 2013, while the media was busy trashing 47 Ronin....

"Barrucci insisted that as he left the cinema following John Wick, he pined for more story regarding the assassin, before clocking that it was "obvious they had the makings of a franchise." Lionsgate clearly agreed because they quickly handed over the rights for the character to Dynamite, allowing them to tell brand new stories with John Wick."

Where's my red pen? but the typewriter and the advice are very cool.

the Wick universe surely is expanding... video games, VR games, comic books, now this

... I haven't read so much condescension and so many backhanded compliments in a long time.

It's still good. Keanu Reeves is launching the third franchise of his career, and this time he's the center of it. The driving force. The third phase of his career is looking sharp and tactical.

Bring on the memes. They just help build his immortality ;)
