"I heard you struck my son." "Yes sir, I did." "May I ask why?" "Because he stole John Wick's car sir, and uh, killed his dog." "May I ask why you *stopped* striking my son?"
It’s the way the mechanic knows he is safe, he knows that an act that would normally see him killed is not going to have any repercussions on him at all.
Never in the history of movies has one single syllable word immediately described someone as the ultimate badass you don't ever fuck with than this moment right here.
One thing to remember; EVERYONE in THAT world knows John Wick, his story, and how he got out and for whom he did it all for. It was THE story in their world for a time. Everyone knew about his wife and the gift she left behind. Notice he gave zero hesitation for telling Viggo about the car, but the dog… he took a breath.
Przypominam, że w świecie Johna Wicka było bardzo niewielu przyjaciół za których główny bohater by oddał życie, lecz za psy zawsze. Ten motyw był powtarzany w każdym filmie z udziałem tego zabójcy.
The scariest thing wasn’t Viggo’s story about who John Wick was or that telling his son that John was coming for him and there wasn’t anything he could do about it. What WAS truly terrifying was when John gave Viggo nothing but silence over the phone then once he hangs up the phone’s bell on the mount is basically used to symbolize the death toll for his son Joseph.
Do tego stary Vigo dopytywał się syna czy zabił Johna Wicka i jak ten zaczął się przechwalać, że dokończy "robotę" to dostał pięścią w żołądek. Chciał nauczyć syna trochę pokory zdając sobie sprawę, że nadchodzi nieuchronnie śmierć.
I love the meme where Thanos wizard says "My lord we have a serious problem - your snap killed half of humanity; but John WIck survived" - Thanos replies "So what?" and the Wizard answers "His dog didn't..."
I love how when John Wick finally catches up to the son he doesn't draw it out or showboat. He simply strides up to him and shoots him in the face without saying anything.
I really liked how there wasn't any hesitation either when killing Iosef. It goes back to what Viggo said about him to his son. "He's a man of focus." He probably didn't hear a word of what Viggo's kid was saying at the end, because he was just so focused.
@@rikk319 Maybe, but I thought I heard them call him Jovonovich when he went to get his card mended. And it flows better to go with Inigo Montoya as a Princess Bride parody.
Just imagine, for a moment, you are Rolf Åke Mikael Nyqvist (Viggo) and you read the script and realize you have one of the most impactful responses in the movie, and it's just two letters. How do you prepare for that line? Just think of all the different ways it could have been said that would've ruined the scene. Great job, Rolf.
Rolf and Åke were like his middle names (in Sweden, they're not always in the middle). He went by Mikael Nyqvist. But, yes, he was a brilliant actor. His most impactful performance was, to me, in Såsom i Himmelen / As It Is In Heaven. He played a conductor who moves to a tiny town in the north of Sweden. It's a fantastic movie about music and life. I highly recommend it ❤
Rough translation of that scene: "Aurelio, I heard you wanted me to kill you." "Yes sir, I did." "May I ask 'why'?" "Well, sir, your son took a stick and poked the Devil in the ribs with it." "... Oh... " SHIT!!!!!
0:58 "Why is it always the kid of the powerful dude whos gotta be the biggest punkasses?" Because its the endgame of the "my dads the coach" mentality.
Vigo went from thinking he's about to give Aurelio a lot to think about on his last night alive, to himself thinking about what kind of Hell he's going to go through to keep his son alive..
And it’s a no-win situation. If he gives up his son, he loses the respect of the entire criminal underworld. His empire crumbles and his status goes from boss to mud. And his former partners and subordinates would tear him apart and likely kill him for it. But if he DOESN’T give up his son… well, we saw the outcome of that.
That scene was the quickest 360 no scope teamkill in all of history. Went from, "I see you have a deathwish" to "I see I have a deathwish, thanks for your fast correct reaction".
Never, I think, has so short a sentence carried so many connotations. "Oh." from "I want your to beg me not to destroy you for touching my son." to "Oh f-ck, my son done screwed me into oblivion, maybe I can talk us out of this apocalypse, if he's in a good mood, but my son killed his dog. If it was just the car maybe, but John Wick's dog? You don't f=ck with a man's wife, pet or car. That's part of the understanding. He just lost his wife, and my son stole his car and _killed_ his dog... My son is so dead the sperm that created him imploded and I'm about to be sucked into the time vortex."
I find it odd that only the first set of reactors actually laughed at the scene. I remember seeing this in the theaters when it released, and just bursting out laughing. It was just such a wonderfully timed comedic moment.
to the youngster not knowing this: The Dog was the last Gift of his dead Wife. His Wife was the Reason, why he stopped his Profession. Before he was allowed to quit, he had to do a last Job... for the Viggo in this Clip.
This is effectively telling someone that their son just unleashed a nuclear bomb somewhere in the city you live in. You might not get killed depending on where you happen to be when that bomb explodes, but you know things are going to get real ugly.
It’s more than that because Viggo gave John Wick his freedom from being a dangerous hitman to have a normal life with his wife until she died he Knows John Wick would have taken his car being stolen as a huge insult and having his dog killed it was a belated gift from his dying wife to help with his grief after her death so John Wick took the killing of his dog and theft of his car as a great insult and that he would be coming for Virgo’s son to exact revenge viggo knew that and that was why he said oh because he knew John Wick would come kill his son
You really have to keep in mind, the kind of things John has to do to leave are more than just the little bit for Viggo, it is a long list of impossibilities that John has checked off immaculately. These are tasks given to kill a person, you are not expected to survive. John survived.
It's not two letters but still one word: in Commando after the bad guys kidnap Alyssa Milano, that guy with the hat and coat says to Arnie something like "we have your daughter, which means you will do what we tell you to do, right?" And Arnie immediately says "wrong!" and shoots the guy with a shotgun.
Zupełnie nie rozumiem tych komentarzy, prześmieszków i kpin. Każdy moment filmu "John Wick" ma bardzo poważne znaczenie i przesłanie. Tutaj żarty są zupełnie nie na miejscu. Jak stary Vigo dowiaduje się, że jego syn pobił Johna Wicka, ukradł mu samochód i zabił psa to w tym "ough" jest świadomość starego gangstera, że jego syn sprowadził na niego śmierć, wyciągnął potwora, który drzemał spokojnie w swoim domu. Po prostu przypiętęwał swój los. To zabicie psa jest znamienne. W kolejnym filmie z udziałem Johna ten bezwzględny zabójca ratuje życie psa czym zaskarbia sobie wielki szacunek czarnoskórego zabójcy wynajętego przez Francuza. John Wick jest bardzo samotny, lecz dla niego pies to przyjaciel za którego jest gotów oddać życie. W filmie z Halle Berry też zabija, ponieważ szef mafii w Marokko strzela do psa. Przypominam też wspaniałe sceny przyjaźni z psem o imieniu "Pies".
Viggo is the kind of man who would kill someone he didn't really know much about for striking his son. Aurelio is someone Viggo respects enough to give him a chance to explain, but he WANTS that explanation, because that explanation will dictate the punishment Aurelio should receive. Just happened in this case that Aurelio was completely justified and in fact should have gone further.
Here's my question... How is it everyone in the world knows who John Wick is ....accept the son of the guy he used to work for?? Anyone else think that's kind of a plot hole here??
@@shiftybea Exactly. He doesn't even really care about the "business" or the day -to-day of it, because Viggo makes a point in telling him that "John is a man of focus. Commitment. Sheer f*cking will. Something you know very little about. " to bring this point home.
John was out of that world and it would appear it had been for a few years. Viggo probably didn't tell his son about him when he felt it was time to bring Joseph into the business.
Viggo, the head mafia boss of that city, was giving him a chance to explain his actions and save his life if the reasoning was good enough. A good boss. He listens to his people before making absolute decisions. The "Oh" was his admission that the punch was justified and that his son was a dead man walking.

In mere seconds Viggo went from being upset that Aurelio hit his son, to being upset he only hit him once.
i heard you struck my son.
yes sir i did.
and may i ask why?
because he stole John Wick's car sir, and killed his dog.
...why did you stop?
At that moment, Viggo knew two things: that hell was about to break loose and that his son would suffer the consequences of his actions.
"I heard you struck my son."
"Yes sir, I did."
"May I ask why?"
"Because he stole John Wick's car sir, and uh, killed his dog."
"May I ask why you *stopped* striking my son?"
It’s the way the mechanic knows he is safe, he knows that an act that would normally see him killed is not going to have any repercussions on him at all.
It would be so amazing to see that
Never in the history of movies has one single syllable word immediately described someone as the ultimate badass you don't ever fuck with than this moment right here.
With one little word (and an incredible backstory), a legend was born.
10 years later, this movie still slaps.
One thing to remember; EVERYONE in THAT world knows John Wick, his story, and how he got out and for whom he did it all for. It was THE story in their world for a time. Everyone knew about his wife and the gift she left behind.

Przypominam, że w świecie Johna Wicka było bardzo niewielu przyjaciół za których główny bohater by oddał życie, lecz za psy zawsze. Ten motyw był powtarzany w każdym filmie z udziałem tego zabójcy.
That "Oh," means that the conversation goes from a courtesy call to let you know that you're dead to you're fine but we're fucked.
The scariest thing wasn’t Viggo’s story about who John Wick was or that telling his son that John was coming for him and there wasn’t anything he could do about it. What WAS truly terrifying was when John gave Viggo nothing but silence over the phone then once he hangs up the phone’s bell on the mount is basically used to symbolize the death toll for his son Joseph.
"What did he say?"
"Enough."

I really enjoy how Viggo physically did a 180 as well as attitude.
I never picked up on that. That's some solid subtlety.

Because that's how you put down a rabid dog.
"My name is Jovonovich Wick. You killed my dog, prepare to die."

"Oh"
The single funniest line in the entire John Wick franchise.
Such efficient storytelling. "Oh." So much said in one word.
The classical playwrights of Greece strived for the emotion in that simple "Oh.".
Never has a single syllable carried so much weight
Viggo: Why did you hit my son?
(Ten seconds later)
Viggo: Why did you let him live?
"Wait who's John Wick?"
"Why are they all so scared of him?"
Ah to be young and innocent again...
Vigo went from
"I'm gonna skin you alive, give me a reason not to"
To
"My son is dead"

he was equally fantastic the Dragon Tattoo series as well.

@@Ebbagull Thank you I will check it out. I have a liking for Swedish lit: Jan Guillou, Liza Marklund, Jussi Adler-Olsen, and Stieg Larsson.
Beauty of great direction. "It's one word, but it has to sell a lifetime of dread.

"Aurelio, I heard you wanted me to kill you."
"Yes sir, I did."
"May I ask 'why'?"
"Well, sir, your son took a stick and poked the Devil in the ribs with it."
"... Oh... " SHIT!!!!!
The tone of that simple two letter word delivers more pregnant meaning and foreshadowing than a long-winded expose.
It goes from 😤 to 😮.
0:58 "Why is it always the kid of the powerful dude whos gotta be the biggest punkasses?" Because its the endgame of the "my dads the coach" mentality.
Never has a movie tone been with set with just one simple word.
John Wick......Oh
Vigo went from thinking he's about to give Aurelio a lot to think about on his last night alive, to himself thinking about what kind of Hell he's going to go through to keep his son alive..
In that moment Viggo is confronted with the classic dilemma of rule.
Follow his heart & protect his son.
Follow his head & protect his empire.
And it’s a no-win situation. If he gives up his son, he loses the respect of the entire criminal underworld. His empire crumbles and his status goes from boss to mud. And his former partners and subordinates would tear him apart and likely kill him for it. But if he DOESN’T give up his son… well, we saw the outcome of that.
@@Anurepa Well there is always an accident😉
May Michael Nyqvist Rest in Peace , he was a great actor 🫡🫡
One of the greatest character introductions and back story, great writing
Probably one of the best scenes in the entire series.
His “oh” hits different having seeing all the movies.
It was at that moment Viggo knew is son had fucked up !
😂😂
That scene was the quickest 360 no scope teamkill in all of history. Went from, "I see you have a deathwish" to "I see I have a deathwish, thanks for your fast correct reaction".
"May I ask why?" Because your son signed his own death certificate.
Never, I think, has so short a sentence carried so many connotations.
"Oh." from "I want your to beg me not to destroy you for touching my son." to "Oh f-ck, my son done screwed me into oblivion, maybe I can talk us out of this apocalypse, if he's in a good mood, but my son killed his dog.

He just lost his wife, and my son stole his car and _killed_ his dog... My son is so dead the sperm that created him imploded and I'm about to be sucked into the time vortex."
It went from your life is on the line to nvm my son is the one who needs a lesson here.
that scene is a case study in how to introduce a character
I find it odd that only the first set of reactors actually laughed at the scene. I remember seeing this in the theaters when it released, and just bursting out laughing. It was just such a wonderfully timed comedic moment.
I love this scene. There is just so much subtext in the span of thirty seconds. So, if people want the paragraph, I'll get it out
The only people who don't know who John Wick is are the people watching the movie for the first time and Yousef.
to the youngster not knowing this: The Dog was the last Gift of his dead Wife. His Wife was the Reason, why he stopped his Profession. Before he was allowed to quit, he had to do a last Job... for the Viggo in this Clip.

“Oh” the definition of a pregnant pause.
“Oh.” 👀
POV, you encountered the largest black hole in the universe: "Oh."
You really have to keep in mind, the kind of things John has to do to leave are more than just the little bit for Viggo, it is a long list of impossibilities that John has checked off immaculately. These are tasks given to kill a person, you are not expected to survive. John survived.
That moment when you realise that all your power, influence and guns are meaningless, because Death is coming.😮
Makes me laugh EVERY time. 😂😂

Understandable, have a nice day
My only complaint is that this is too short.
In all seriousness, did Viggo really have to ask? Couldn't he have simply guessed that Iosef did something stupid?
Viggo is the kind of man who would kill someone he didn't really know much about for striking his son. Aurelio is someone Viggo respects enough to give him a chance to explain, but he WANTS that explanation, because that explanation will dictate the punishment Aurelio should receive. Just happened in this case that Aurelio was completely justified and in fact should have gone further.
Reactors, reacting to reactors reacting to their reaction of a reactor.
It's cute these reactors didn't watch John Wick movie 😮
This is probably one of the most efficient and effective scenes in movie history
Oh....
This is the reaction my friends have when they realized they pissed me off. My childhood nickname was the Boogeyman
-ow!
Here's my question... How is it everyone in the world knows who John Wick is ....accept the son of the guy he used to work for?? Anyone else think that's kind of a plot hole here??
No, it is shown that the sin really doesn't care about anything or anyone but himself.
@@shiftybea Exactly. He doesn't even really care about the "business" or the day -to-day of it, because Viggo makes a point in telling him that "John is a man of focus. Commitment. Sheer f*cking will. Something you know very little about. " to bring this point home.
The son is too spoiled and narcissistic to care about his father's business, and Viggo knows this.
John was out of that world and it would appear it had been for a few years. Viggo probably didn't tell his son about him when he felt it was time to bring Joseph into the business.
More like a 980. @
This is the scene that caused me to walk away from this series.
Viggo, the head mafia boss of that city, was giving him a chance to explain his actions and save his life if the reasoning was good enough. A good boss. He listens to his people before making absolute decisions. The "Oh" was his admission that the punch was justified and that his son was a dead man walking.
Viggo wouldn't have done that for just anyone, however. He knew Aurelio and respected him enough to give him that chance to explain.
