| Da :))))))) I know life is full of surprises, and nevertheless it never stops surprising me :))) Umm... I guess switching to 100% conversation in Romanian wouldn’t be quite polite with regard to the fellow posters..? ;) I remember first going to Romania in '92 with our class and school teacher, first experience for a Soviet girl going abroad :))) even if it was a former communist country as well, nevertheless it was abroad! interesting experience :) Romania is a very beautiful country. Where exactly do you live? :) Ever been in Moldova? I can not say I am a big fan of Tarkovski movies... but it could be that I was too little when they appeared and honestly I didn’t watch them afterwards in my conscious years. But he is a grand of the world cinematography. If one day i am to watch a Tarkovski movie, I would probably begin with Andrey Rubleov. What is your favourite Tarkovski film? |

| Oh really?? atunci trebuie sa vorbesti romana! :)) si poate un pic rusa..? many Romanians learned Russian in schools during communism… You probably won't believe it, but I am your little neighbour from the right as well :))) As they say about my country - it's sandwiched or landlocked between Romania and Ukraine... :) It's a small small world! isn't it? ;) And I love both, Romania and Russia for their spirituality and culture. :) …what a surprise! :) Yes, you must be well acquainted with Russian culture… You are right, Russians are very much aware of this kind of pricks in their society, who are largely criticized and satirized in their culture, as modern, as past. And again you are right, that the problem could be employing exactly this type... The movie does benefit from this turn out, adding the mystery of censorship to its other prominent characteristics that make a cult movie. |

| Again, all above is just an opinion ;)
I love the movies Keanu are in, and we all fans know how much he dedicates himself to his job, and how demanding are his roles His every role opens a new side to him and shows his extraordinary potential. I wish him every success with John Wick and that the movie gets to be seen everywhere around the globe. This movie deserves to be seen! :) |

Yes indeed, it becomes very interesting :)) I would definitely like to see how this story wraps up… Will it be a tango, a corrida or a …Swan Lake? (in its "happily ever after" version)
it's a very politically correct way to describe this phenomena :) I would say the movie depicts Russian mobsters in a caricaturistic way… like some shoddy "heroes" And of course, while Tarasov-father is presented as you said - ambitious, ruthless and capable, presenting the son (who is per se the future and, of course, the product of his father), the way he is presented... There's no "glory" to their personas - that could be the main "defeat". And that's what they definitely can't stand - being mocked of. Russians can laugh at themselves, they know how (because they know their wicknesses) and truly enjoy it among themselves. But having Americans (!) laughing at them - ouffff… All this could be quite a pinch to their ego. I also understand that Russians in US take it much easier, than the ones living in Russia, and Russian people take it much easier than Russian officials. Now I am even more interested to know the public opinion, as the officials' one can be quite obvious. Honestly I prefer to be wrong about all that said above. Let's see. For info, in other post-soviet countries the movie premiered without delay, and people don't evoke any political context of it. All this thing about Russians and Americans mocking of of each other seems eternal :) May be it could and should result one day in a friendly tournament :))) |

it has all the chances. It's now postponed for January 1st, 2015. No. At least I am 99,99% sure of that. But lets see… |

| ex-Marine? it explains a lot… for example his self-control.
I think there is no ex-Marine, like there is no ex-actor. It's in their blood… Thank you for the details, it's definitely a connection |

it's indeed their motto… Interesting if it has connection to Keanu's Hawaiian ancestry or is just a coincidence, due to the meaning of the phrase |
| JOHN WICK? 2014-12-12 10:36:46 |
| Read somewhere that JW film makers took into consideration Keanu's Hawaiian roots and used this fact for his character. The tattoo on John's back saying Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat meaning Fortune Favors the Brave represents the motto of the 3rd division of the 3rd Marine regiment based in Kaneohe-Bay in Hawaii. True that? |
| JOHN WICK? 2014-12-12 10:21:24 |
| JW cancelled in Russia exactly on the premiere day 4 December, later postponed for 18th
many different opinions and speculations, some even say it's politics. Fans obviously very disappointed |
