Title: John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum
Post by: AJCarrington on <03-23-19/1824:13>
Not sure if anyone had posted on this movie, so figured I’d through up a link to the trailer that dropped earlier this week.

Opens up on May 17...one of the few movies I’d even consider venturing out to on opening weekend.

I never saw part 1... Saw part 2 and loved it. So many tv-series and movies go 'yeah excellent marksman / assassin' and still needing a LOT of time per enemy. Meanwhile, John often only needs 1 or 2 shots for an enemy. Those fast mow-down-all-enemies fights really drive home that he just IS that good.

If you liked Part 2, you should go back and watch Part 1...definitely worth your time.

Si vis pacem, para bellum.

"If you want peace, prepare for war."

While I'm sure 90% of our regulars know the above and what follows, for those playing that home version. This phrase became very popular around the turn of the century leading up to World War one. During this period a huge amount of technological development in guns was also occurring. If you know anything about guns, most of great names come from this time. Georg Luger is the source for the 9mm parabellum, but if you take a look at those guns, and you don't know the history, you will probably be amazed at the design in those products, their adaptability and their accessorizes etc.

If you love Shadowrun then you should love Keanu Reeves as well. I'm gonna go see it for sure.

Saw this earlier this evening and enjoyed it immensely. Bring on Part 4!

Agreed!!! Badass fight scenes, professional double-tapping, even the dogs fought realistically, a title drop... And enough build-up to make you want part 4 asap and watch a table-flip.

Have you had a chance to watch Part 1 yet? I still think that one is still my favorite.
