KEANU 101: John Wick

Who doesn’t love Keanu Reeves? No one, that’s who. This week the Junkies continue their semi-regular feature looking into some of pop culture’s most important films from one of its most beloved stars. This week’s lesson is on the first chapter of Reeves’ dog-loving hitman trilogy, John Wick. Though the movie has the thinnest of plots, it heavies up on meticulously choreographed action sequences and Reeves does most of his own stunts. But is it a good movie? The Junkies weigh this and other questions, like does Theon Greyjoy from Game of Thrones make a good villain? Would a Jessica Wick series be as popular? How does John Wick rate against other action heroes and anti-heroes? Can we get Brendan Fraser and The Rock to join Keanu for John Wick 4? And do you say “Tomatometer” or “Tomameter?” You can plan for our next Keanu 101 lesson by watching Speed.Thank you to Olympus Games, the home of the Pop Culture Junkie Podcast.Links:Apple Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pop-culture-junkie/id1536737728Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/7k2pUxzNDBXNCHzFM7EL8WWebsite: www.popculturejunkie.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/PopCultureJunkiePodcastTwitter: @PopJunkiesInstagram: @pop.culturejunkiesEmail: [email protected] on Instagram: @alcasnunAlex on Twitter: @alcasnunHayley on Instagram: @thirtynerdythrivingNicole on Instagram: @nicole_eldridgeNicole on Twitter: @naeldridge14Nicole on TikTok: @nicole_eldridgeShauna on Twitter: @shaunatrinidadShauna on Instagram: @shaunatrinidad
