We've Got Something in Common
Cassian, body guard to Gianna D'Antonio who tries to avenge her death after John Wick is forced to kill her. There is a familiar will and focus that he has.Here's where I become a little bit of a conspiracy theorist . I believe that this character will be back for the third movie. But Cassian will eventually become an ally, the fact that he was almost able to best John was very interesting. Where he was out for Revenge, John's vengeance was probably just a little more pure.
At the end of the day the movie is a call John Wick so I didn't expect Cassian to the defeat John in his own movie; not in the middle of the second act. But the level of respect, that you could see clearly in John's eyes for this guy, he knew that it wasn't going to be an easy take down . The fact that they were both a car's link away from each other and couldn't shoot each other point blank was evidence that this man this somebody who could best John Toe to Toe. At one moment I didn't know how they were going to find a way to end it without killing each other.
They respect the rules of the Continental and watching that play out with them laying down their arms and having a drink with each other was hilarious, frightening, captivating and very intense . A lot was being said without any dialogue at all . We're not talking about a Batman/Joker situation this is closer to a Superman/Batman or Batman/Nightwing pairing. The way I see it with the whole world coming against John Wick for the third movie Commons character and definitely be a key asset and keeping John alive, if not just so he could get the chance to finish what he started in chapter 2 and kill him in the end. It would be interesting to see a full Trilogy of John Wick turn into another set of trilogies before Cassian.
I mean we would never see it coming.
The John and Jimmy connection
I love the fact that in both movies Officer Jimmy comes to John's house after it goes down one way or the other . Dead bodies everywhere, house burns down, doesn't matter it's always the same question . Jimmy walks up to John looks around and says and I quote "you working?"
Sometimes John gives an answer sometimes he doesn't but either way it goes John knows answers yes by his silence. And this movie Jimmy knows that John is definitely working his response to that fact is hilarious. I don't see how a cop who knows that these assassins are out there could play a bigger part but I would like to see it happen in a third chapter.
This collection of people who either come from this world or are aware of it all have a particular background that could be very beneficial to a person like John especially in this situation that he finds himself in by the end of the film. You never go to war without allies . officer Jimmy can come in handy and deliver some dry with subtle humor that fits in perfectly with the tone of this movie . nothing to slapstick where the lovable cop is just the goofball. maybe he does come from that world and he's just playing it down and being a cop is just a cover . That would explain why he knows so much and still alive .
How good to see you again so soon
Charon is a good man, dog lover, very subtle very professional. I can't help but think this guy could probably beat John Wick easily . have you ever seen those old kung fu movies where all hell's breaking loose everybody's Kung Fu Fighting. But you always see that one guy in the background who hasn't done anything yet. Homer Simpson even had a moment that pointed that out on one episode of The Simpsons. "Marge, we can't leave the fight yet that one guy hasn't done anything yet, look at him, hes about to do something, you know it's going to be good . The moment he turns around you could hear that the person he was waiting to do something did something amazing and Homer missed it.
You might see the same thing happen or not happen in chapter 3. there's something mysterious about this guy, he could be the one who ends John Wicks road . He Could be the one to save him. if I was to predict anything I would say that this guy's obvious the runner-up to become management at the New York Chapter Continental . but he could be one of these guys who likes to be the underboss. Hand of the King instead of the king. Something tells me that the only way Winston's going to be able to get John out of this miss that he's found himself in it's by becoming management . I put my money on Charon and Winston somehow coming together with the aid of all of John's friends to do some kind of sacrificial gesture that makes John Wick untouchable . if he becomes management Maybe that should be a rule .
Either with John Wicks death or with him transition into management you could launch a new set of movies for comments character to take over the franchise for the next 3 years with John Wick making small appearances . then maybe another group of Assassins in the same order . till one final Avengers style ending where they all come together for one final fight. But who knows how this could end. The next one could very well be the last one. I hope not . these movies make money so it only makes sense to keep it going. Fast and the furious doesn't seem like it's going to hold on for too long . maybe John Wick will fill that void until the inevitable crossover.
Something like a phenomenon in this movie . management Winston doesn't seem to fear anyone he's protected not just by League of Assassins but by his ethics, his honor , the code, the rules . it doesn't seem that John Wick fears Winston , it's just that John knows that Winston is one man that can definitely finish the job . maybe all managers are capable of this no matter how much will or pure Force you have as a killer. Winston seems like a father figure 2 John Wick telling him to abide by the rules, to remember the code, never let your emotions get the better of you. Almost like a Obi-Wan Kenobi type or maybe a Palpatine , that's probably more fitting . but unlike Palpatine Wentz and doesn't seem to want to take anything from John. But he sincerely wants to help him . he may be the cause of John's latest Problem by the end of the movie but I also believe that in chapter 3 whether it's the last chapter or not Winston will be the one to come through in the clutch and possibly save John's life yet again.
Is probably fitting that John always wears a black suit, if you always bet on black Winston seems to cash out every time they alter against John. I'm sure even in the situation that he's been forced to put John in there's something else going on behind the scenes that we aren't even aware of . Possibly that the writers haven't even thought of yet . I'm excited to see exactly what Winston I'm surprised it again in chapter 3.
