    Escape is a super fun movie, it walks the 80s doomerism attitude and gritty action hero line very well

    The whole “man above the high table” thing from John Wick 3/4 is really weird, seems to actively detract from the plot, and has almost immediately, zero impact on the plot. I really don’t understand how that was supposed to fit in with the rest of the series

      I remember an article saying John Wick was in the fantasy tradition of parallel worlds (not multiverse, but another world alongside and only partly visible to the normal world).
