Looks just as entertaining action wise, with the same level of scriptwriting as Chapter 2. Let’s see.

The last movie was good but a bit too IPSCy at spots.
Let’s hope this one gets a bit grungier because you just don’t mess with a man’s dog or vintage sports car

I thought the first movie was better with a good mix of story, action, scenery, action. 2 definitely ramped up the gunfu center axis relock but lacked depth of story. I think 3 will be like 2.

I think the second movie was a nod to 3-gun competition, at least partly because of Taran Butler's role in training the actors to shoot.

The MPX carbine (complete with 16-inch barrel) with TTI mag extensions and coupled magazines suggests to me that there will be more three-gun homages in this movie.

I get it for three-gun. But for anything, "real world," why not use a select-fire MPX? Or, keeping with the three-gun theme, use the longer MPX carbine handguard with a regular MPX subgun barrel and a can?

Still. I anticipate being entertained by it: It has Halle Berry with an RMR'd G34 and two maligators.

Looks good. 9mm carbines are new gun to have it seems. Gun buddy was tuning up his 9mm yesterday at the range. Fun to shoot.

It's half way to comic book, but at least it's entertaining. The 2nd one was so comp focused, I swear I thought I heard a buzzer and was surprised he didn't get DQ'd for breaking 180....

Yup, but $ is speaks louder then any considering on making movies that don't suck. The only movies that have not sucked beyond #2 have been those intended as trilogies from the start, like LOR, and The Matrix. I can't think of a single example that was not the case.

Even The God Father III sucked and should never have been made.

The Matrix was never intended as a trilogy. Neither was Star Wars. Nor The Expendables. Nor Back to the Future. Nor El Mariachi. Mission Impossible. Shrek. Naked Gun. Toy Story. The Mummy. Die Hard. Mad Max. The Bourne Identity. Indiana Jones. (List continues.)

Every single one was, "Hey, we made money on this and people loved it. Let's make another!" And for a lot of these trilogies, the best movies are either the second or the third of the trilogy.

That's not my understanding. I'd read the Wachowskis had all three in mind and mostly written. The studio forced them make some changes so the first would be a stand alone if it flopped, but it was always intended by them as a trilogy.

Are you gents referring to movie number four The Bourne Legacy (2012) with Jeremy Renner or movie number five Jason Bourne (2016) where they brought Matt Damon back?

Technically those are number five and six in the franchise if you count the original The Bourne Identity TV (mini-series) from 1988 but meh.

Pretty sure Lucas always intended for Star Wars to be a trilogy, but as WillBrink pointed out with the Matrix, he wasn't sure the studio would make more than 1 if it didn't perform well.

The first Matrix was groundbreaking in the way it was filmed. The problem with the last two Matrix movies (other than they weren’t as good as the first) is they didn’t line up with the first movie. In the first Neo and his merry band of men, and women, were trying to save humanity from being used as human batteries for the machines. In the last two they were just trying to save “Zion” and the poor souls that were plugged up were forgotten about.

Agreed, one of the rare examples, but also a unique example with changing casts, etc.

Terminator was the classic, T2, was OK, but it didn't even approach the first, and after that, meh.

My understanding, they always intended it as a trilogy, with the risk averse studio putting limits on the first so it was stand alone if it tanked.

In the last two they were just trying to save “Zion” and the poor souls that were plugged up were forgotten about.

See above, but while 1 was the best, all were good, and on watching them multiple times, actually got better. The unplugged humans were going to be wiped out and were fighting a last stand fight, I can see why saving the those being used as batteries a secondary concern, and they did a good job of showing that only Neo actually being fully integrated into the Matrix would save the few humans left in Zion from being wiped out totally. The machines were winning and "we" were losing, and a deal struck between Neo and the head Matrix mind is what prevented it to now fight a common foe. I'd actually like to see #4 at this point as it was still left someone open ended.

I'm referring to the last movie with Matt Damon and Tommy Lee Jones, which I only saw because it was available free through one of the online streaming services. I haven't seen the Jeremy Renner one yet (it hasn't come up on the streaming services I'm subscribed to).

Pretty sure Lucas always intended for Star Wars to be a trilogy, but as WillBrink pointed out with the Matrix, he wasn't sure the studio would make more than 1 if it didn't perform well.

As I recall, from reading everything I could get my hands on as a kid about Star Wars, it was never meant to be a trilogy, in the sense that there was no overarching story that would take three movies to tell in 1977. In fact, George Lucas hadn't decided that Darth Vader would be Luke's father until about half-way through filming The Empire Strikes Back. And Leia wasn't Luke's sister until mid-way through filming Return of the Jedi. The actor and appearance of the Emperor was not finalized until they started seriously working on Return of the Jedi (which was a year or so after The Empire Strikes Back).

Until at least ESB, the character of Anakin Skywalker, the one voiced by James Earl Jones, was: last name Vader, first name Darth. His title is, "Lord," not, "Darth," and his full name and title is, "Lord Darth Vader." (An artifact of this is when Sir Alec/Obi-Wan calls his former student, "Darth," as though it was his given name.)

Similarly, Luke and Leia kiss in ESB because Luke and Leia were not brother and sister - yet. And the hologram of the Emperor in The Empire Strikes Back was an amalgam of an old woman and a monkey. It was changed later, after Return of the Jedi came out.

IOW, there may have been a plan to make a trilogy, but the thing was basically made up entirely as they went - and constrained by their budget (which wasn't nearly as massive as those of the prequel or sequel trilogies). A New Hope wasn't A New Hope until after there was The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. It was just Star Wars. And Star Wars went from being Star Wars: A New Hope to Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope in the 1990s, after Lucas had started working up the prequel trilogy. And I don't think I need to remind anyone that Sebastian Shaw's Anakin Skywalker was replaced by Hayden Christiansen's in Return of the Jedi after Revenge of the Sith came out.

I've enjoyed this series for the entertainment factor, and unlike some, I actually appreciate the 3-gun influence in these movies. I'm so tired of "hollywood" shootout scenes with hundreds of rounds fired without a single reload, making headshots on moving targets at 100 yards while riding a fully galloping horse, flimsy car doors stopping a full mag of 7.62, suppressed guns that sound like a gnat's fart, and full auto everything, etc.

It's nice to see a film that is finally serious about training its actors to actually be able to shoot in real life. Ya, the story line got a little unrealistic in JW2, but i thought the guns and gunfighting were very entertaining. Gonna see JW3 tonight, so we'll see how it goes.

I saw it last night and it was basically a continuation of where number 2 left off. As predicted, the plot had some big holes, and the story was lacking, but there was a lot of entertaining fight scenes and action. I feel like there was a little less gunfighting in this one, and more fighting with knives and swords etc. But still some good gunfights, and Halle Berry did not disappoint.

Who’s name was on the shotgun ammo? Nice to see some old school tube-fed shotgun work, but I would have grabbed mk18.

But at least he's not an anti gun D bag like Neeson.

Amen brother. And he handles guns liker a real life "gun guy". I liked the movie but it is as realistic as a star wars movie. Most impressive as he road that horse Downtown hanging off the side of the horse.

Should have called it John Wick Chapter 3: Nut shot. Seriously they overdid the hits to the nuts in it. Also it seemed like they did less with making sure the gun action was accurate as far as reloads with halle berry I think but I'd have to rewatch. The third movie was more of a comedy than a straight action movie to me, kinda didn't fit in with the others because of that. Still overall I laughed and enjoyed it.

HB never disappoints! Loved the dog work. Overall it was an entertaining movie. I thought Winston also helped Wick fake his death but not 100% sure of that. The Adjudicator just needs to be killed. She'd be my 1st target in the next movie for sure.

Multiple times through the movie I wondered why no one killed the adjudicator

Saw it with a buddy today. I liked it better than 2 but not as much as I liked 1. The amount of punishment Wick's body takes just a couple days after the punishment his body took in JW2 was so unrealistic that I found it borderline distracting.

That said, the (mostly) realistic gunplay and graphic kills did not disappoint. The axe throw and the eyeball were probably my faves. I did find it slightly disappointing that the adjudicator was not one of the graphic kills though.

What is it with ambiguously gendered characters. The hit chick that looked like a 12 year old boy in the last one and Taylor Mason moonlighting from her hedge fund for this one?

Enjoyed the movie overall. Really liked the stable scene and the dog work. Watching Halle Berry run and gun didn’t make me sad, either.

Watching him intentionally choose the PCC over everything else drove me nuts.

Went and saw this today with the wife. While I enjoyed seeing the pretty authentic firearms handling by K.R. and H.D. as well as choreography of the fight scenes overall, it did get wearing.

Plot development, we don't need no freaking plot development.

Favorite lines: HB: 'He shot my dog.' KR: 'I get it.' Second favorite: 'Let me catch my breath and I'll be right along.' JW: 'No you won't.'

Apparently we are going to see JW 4, hopefully more plot, right amount of quality fight scenes.

Echoing the approval of the stable scene and all the dog work.

I was watching the video of her training with the dogs - pretty cool.

The level of training of those dogs is super impressive, thanks for that clip.

Stupid question:

Why would you shoot 9mm "Major" out of a 2011 instead of just getting it made in 38 Super +P?

Before someone says, "So you can shoot normal 9mm out of it (with a recoil spring/main spring swap)", why not have a complete barrel and recoil spring/main spring and not ever have to risk blowing up your gun from accidentally running your Major loads while the gun is set up for Minor? And why not re-spring the G34 for Major?

Because the gun fu is being driven by techs that are into IPSC/3gun.

I liked the movie, but also groaned when he chose the PCC when he knew he was going to a gun fight. I shoot 3gun where a lot (at least 1/3) of the shooters are using a PCC. I've ask a bunch of them if they knew they were going to a gun fight would they choose the PCC or a .223 AR . They have all said the .223 AR.

Maybe Wick wouldn't have needed the armor piercing slugs if he'd grabbed a 5.56mm.

...along with the hotel's security team.

You nailed it. I actually said something similar to my wife.

Did anyone else catch the cameo/ode/reference(?) to the Matrix? When he says he’s going to need “guns, lots of guns”. I could have sworn that line was straight out of the Matrix. The scene before the big shootout with security when they went to rescue Morpheus.

She is an attractive woman with a nice body and nice hair.
Aging well compared to most women that age.

A good example of skin tone has little to do attractive features, a sexy body, and long, good hair.
A good example of a fit woman taking care of herself can still be desirable past the child bearing years.

I don’t understand her always being touted as the example of a “hot black woman.”

With build, hair, and features that are very atypical for a black woman.

It’s like touting Olivia Munn or Roz Purcell or Andrea Corr as the Hottest Irish Chick.
