    They had a hell of a run, and while I’d like to see more, I’m really in it for the direction. If the director goes another route and starts a new franchise or keeps it going Ballerina and moved past Reeves, I’m ok with that. I think he’s a rare artist that gives action movies what they’ve lost, and I’m here for it.

      I wanna see a Dog Wick spin-off. John is the one that stays at home and the dog goes out to protect him

      I wouldn’t like to see more. I had stopped after two, but decided to watch them all recently. The first is amazing. Two is fine, but starts getting weird. For a franchise that succeeded because of its realistic portrayal of firearm usage, the magic really starts ramping up here. Three and four are strange considering where the series started. They’re alright action flicks I guess, but I didn’t really care for them. I don’t see any need for more.

    The next movie he should die in the beginning and his dog goes on a rampage to avenge him.

    Honestly I’m hoping they don’t make more. I appreciate the ambiguous ending of the 4th movie letting audiences choose to believe what we were shown at face value or not. Having him come back would ruin that

    You’d expect a wealth like Keanu’s to afford peptide and stem cell treatments that would fix him right up.

    All the same, I would like to see more of Mr. Wick, but respect Keanu’s desires for comfort instead of tens of millions more dollars he doesn’t need.

    Hopefully he can have new roles that are just as fun but don’t take such a toll on him.

      Maybe a millionaire like him not receiving the fix for bad knees which would be great even if he chose not to do more John Wick for an improved quality of life shows that aspect of medicine is still not within reach for now.

      Can you imagine, so this is me being sarcastic, that he has not done it yet due to the poor health care and even as a rich person he cannot afford it, like sitting in the doctor’s chair sweating after hearing what it costs, having the apiffany knowing already who the villains are that he is gonna have to shoot in his next movie.

    Who cares about knees? Wick 2 was okay, Wick 3 was pretty mediocre, and Wick 4 was painfully bad. Let the series die already.

    Man, the article should really say spoiler alert before jumping into the 2nd paragraph. There goes the final instalment for me…

      Let’s be real, if you’ve already seen John Wick 3, I doubt you’re really sticking around for 4 because of the compelling story lol

    No, man. The High Table must be destroyed before he quits or does. This is a must. One more, Baby.
