WICK: the Vengeance

Found elsewhere, reposted without comment:


I saw a theory online that I'm fond of where essentially, John Wick isn't an action series so much as it is a fantasy series, with Wick being the protagonist who managed to extricate himself from the world of the Fae at one point but is brought back into their wars by his actions to deal with the assholes in the first movie. The reason it gets more and more ridiculous and unbelievable (if it were a gritty action film with logic and rules), is because it's actually high fantasy faerieland. That's why everyone he meets also happens to be an assassin, and Central Park is full of assassins, and you have comic levels of damage soaking and ridiculous weapons.

If this were true I might actually watch them.
