John Wick's an interesting character even though I bet he has less than 20 minutes of actual dialog in all the films combined. I think you'll really enjoy it.
I may need to rewatch this movie (JW3) based on your response, Jerry)

They are doing a limited series called The Continental about a young Winston and Charon and how they came to be with the hotel.

Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)
6.5/10

It is what it is. It's stupid. It's mindless fun.
It was better than i expected it to be.
I got the impression that there was a low budget in place.
The amped up color saturation adds a cartoon edge to the live, sometimes over the top brutal action.
Rutger Hauer, who plays the part of Hobo, is what lifts the movie above the ordinary. The rest of the cast are great also.

Super Mario Bros. 7/10

I didn't like how they made Mario Bros. as some losers from Brooklyn, New York. Ofcourse no one kidnapped the Princess because girl power ! Princess is more capabale and stronger than all the heroes including the protogonist Mario. Mario and Luigi were total loser without the power ups anyway. The Cartoon Film was a mix of some of the Nintendo Mario games like Super Mario Bros., Donky Kong, Luigi's Mansion and Mario Kart. There was definetly room for improvement with the simple plot. There were two after credit scenes and since Super Mario Bros. Cartoon Film is a box office success now. It is the highest grossing entery among all the Cartoons and Films in 2023 so far, so you can definetly expect a squel.

John Wick Chapter 4.
10/10 (I mean, IMO it’s perfect for what the franchise brings to the table)

Finally found time to see it with my husband. It’s easily my favorite of the series! Beautiful choreography. Locations/sets were beyond stunning. Side character casting was magnificent. Had touching moments, well-timed humor, and all the John Wick magic I felt that 3 lacked.

I may also be biased because there was oodles of Winston in this one and I love me some Ian McShane.

Bring on the Peacock series!!

NorthernLad summed up the plot. It?s going to be on Peacock.

For anybody sleeping on Peacock, don?t. It?s really a nice little steaming service. We use it a lot.

I hope this movie makes a lot of money so we can get a Zelda movie.

Great follow up movie to the TV show.

That was the one thing I would change about the movie. Peach's job is to get kidnapped, not be a boss babe. They had Luigi get kidnapped instead. I haven't played some of the newer games, so I didn't know if Peach was saving Mario now.

A Zelda Film would be awesome, but better get ready for your unkidnappable, unbeatable, hard boiled Princess Zelda... lol

Princess saves Mario now... lol probably this is where Mario games are going. The name of the games won't be Super Mario anymore, it will be Super Princess Peach and Princess will save Mario. lol
