John Wick is truly a movie that will stand the test of time, a movie so undeniably savage and incredible that it's practically started its own cultural revolution, but what happens when we don't look at it through the lens of Keanu Reeve's Character but instead of the Main villain, Viggo Tarasov.

The word is idiocy..idiocracy is a movie
It's an homage to another parody, I do things like this, add references to the stuff I like, some of it is really stupid and hard to get like Jurassic Park and Plato and Diogenes fight over the definition of a man, and some is easier Voldemort had Pitch Meetings, then you have my usage of "Idiocracy" which is an homage to a movie that Parodies and Satirises, but where they do culture, I do movies and TV shows, it's another subtle bit of ironic humour.
Not as funny when I have to explain the jokes but yeah
I didn't really get the joke, either. I figured he didn't know the difference between the words :/
As a movie fan, I appreciated the joke. @@Nomsynho
@@citizen4278sounds like a skill issue to me
@Yamayaahaw Yes.... that _is_ the joke. Wasn't that clear?
Honestly on rewatches, the whole movie it feels like everyone (including John himself) are more pissed because the son didn't kill him. Like after 5 years of being off the grid, John was relatively rusty and at times out right lost fights once he started on his revenge quest, leading me to headcanon that John is lowkey suicidal. Ultimately to me it felt like John while rightfully angry about his dog is more pissed at the unprofessionalism of the mob and assassins since his retirement/unretirement
“I’ll show these kids how it was done back in my day.”
Is him being suicidal even lowkey? The whole sequence where he’s drifting his car around the tarmac and then almost slams it head first into a huge truck but stops at the very last second showed us that he is.
Critical thinking at its best. Great comment.
He let Vigo stab him and used ridiculously aggressive tactics the entire movie. He was absolutely suicidal. It wasn't till the very end that he decided to get up, treat his wound, and get a new puppy.
@@zma924I was about to say this, honestly I think the whole film is a suicide mission, at the end he even sits down and accepts his death, watching his happy memories but chooses to keep living, he gets another dog.
This is the rare villain who truly understands how screwed he is. Reminds me of Dead Zone abridged “Oh my god you morons stole Goku’s kid?!!!!
"Yeah but first we beat up his wife"
"Oh my shit."
-Oh my god, you morons stole John Wick's car?! How did you stole John Wick's car???!!!
- Well, first we killed his dog...
- OH MY SHIT!!!!
I said the inverse on a reaction to that movie
His minions are almost as incompetent too
@@heze1712 I laughed at all of this so hard, took a moment to get my breath then laughed all over again!
"Go beg for his forgiveness, and if he decides he's going to kill you, let him. If you do not, I will you drag you to him myself." IDK it feels like his best bet
John might have just beat him up. It would let him get the catharsis, and probably avoid being "back". The reason why that's not what happens is that Viggo feels like he has to protect his son, and they can't be shown as weak or allow such disrespect--but maybe they could. Car guy got away with punching the idiot. Feel like "hey, Viggo's idiot son got thrashed within an inch of his life by John Wick and lived" would probably sound pretty badass on its own.
John isn't a man of words, he is a man of actions, you might as well gun down your son yourself in front of John and tell him how sorry you are, he might empathize with you then and try to return the life his wife wanted him to live.
That would have been a sick line.
@@ghostbravo7127but would John really empathise with someone that would gun down his own son in front of someone else in a feeble grasp to have his own life spared? It's cowardly. Selfish.
POV: that guy who lost his gf to a f***ing bee in Bee movie
I would love that video
i burst out laughing at this
Honestly, I feel like Vanessa would have broken up with Ken, even if Barry didn’t buzz into her life. So Ken was probably screwed either way. Poor Ken.
@@adventurekitty101Yeah, but he'd still have some dignity.
@@BrandonVout True.
Imagine if he'd accepted his son was dead instead and called John to say "I'm sorry. I have him here. You still have my protection. I'll hold him for you." Would have probably changed *everything*.
Honestly, just at that point consider adopting a new son to inherit the legacy or any of the most loyal guys you worked with.
@@HellishSpoon You turn to your American Minion and say 'Congratulations...'
yeah, the entire second, third and 4th movies would have never even happened, and he would have simply gone back to grieving his wife's death xD
@@kaelanirevyruun1676 Unless Viggo kept Iosef's cause of death under wraps, Santino would show up to John anyway after hearing he came back to the assassin life and want his end of the bargain fulfilled.
Or you know several years before this movie takes place you tell your son that the deadliest fing person to ever cross your path used to work for you and lives in the next town over. You are never to go near this person. Here is a fing picture so you know the one and only person on the planet not to piss off. Put this in your wallet so you never forget. Good, now get the fuck out.
Well, he didn't really let John leave. He gave him an 'impossible task' - fully expecting John to die...and when John succeeded (with Santino D'Antonio's help) he had no choice but to let him actually leave.
But what I like about the scenes with Viggo: Every time you see him (in non-action scenes) he takes increasingly hard drugs to cope. It's an elegant cinematic way to underscore how his mental state breaks down as the situation goes from bad to worse for him.
Something that I LOVE about the first film is how it doesn't tell us what the "impossible task" is. It gives us enough clues to figure it out, like Viggo saying "the bodies he buried that day, laid a foundation of what we are now", but we still don't know how big the task was or who the targets were. It could have been competition against Viggo or even his upper employers. Or both.
And I've always wondered what D'Antonio did to help John achieve his, which is never explained, but adds to the lore of John Wick. While he still pulled off the impossible task, it shows that he required help to achieve it. My best guess is that D'Antonio gave John the locations of his targets or even arranged a meeting for John to set up a trap of all the targets. Or it simply could be that D'Antonio secured permission from the High Table for John to take out these individuals.
From what’s implied, what John did set the mob up to take over New York.
It made John Wick obsolete. That how he got out.
"Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit huffing glue. " 😂😂😂
What I couldn't understand is that why he just didn't let John just finish him off. His right hand man is better at taking care of the business. I know he's the only child but he's clearly failed and spoiled the little idiot.
@@wanderingbufoon 1) Lots of parents still love their disappointing, failed children and hope they'll "grow out of" their current behavior. 2) Even if he doesnt love him per se, there's a rep thing. Your name (in the John Wick world) is ultimately all you have. If you let someone punish (kill) your son, and dont retaliate, that's going to cost you face. Now, if _Viggo_ had killed his son, he wouldnt lose face & might have been able to stave John off, but people can get super weird when it comes to legacy (esp by direct blood). Look at all of history, the monarchs who died knowing their child wasnt up to ruling but hoping that a grandchild+ eventually would be. Because legacy

@@mary-janereallynotsarah684
[good enough ending]
Its worth noting, not only did they kill his dog and steal his car, but they specifically did it after his wife died.
Like maybe if his wife was still alive, he could have forgiven and forgotten, but the son just had to go and kick a man who was already down and take what little he had left. And that's what did them in.
He only got the dog because his wife died, it was her last gift to Wick.
@@Dave1507 Yeah we know that, but Viggo at that point in the story doesn't.
@@justinjunkatigbak4576 and?
Killing his dog is bad but the dog was a puppy, 0%threat.
that is the entire point of the movie. this isnt even subtext, its just text, john says so himself when he gets caught by viggo.
Four reasons the "being hit by the car" bit is easily explainable:
1. He was rather pissed.
2. He was too busy focusing on targets.
3. Guns are loud.
4. His peripheral vision was obscured by an SUV.
3.
guns are really loud.
John wick 100% has severe hearing problems too, considering how many shootouts happen in tight spaces in these movies.
@@ericknorskr8568most common injury in self defense situations; temporary hearing damage if it's outdoors, permanent hearing damage if it's indoors. People grossly underestimate how loud they are. Same volume range as a lightning strike, but next to your head and every time you pull that trigger.
I love how John is at his most vulnerable during the first movie. He is at the worst of his grieve, hasn't kill in years, is still unshure if he should be doing this and got thrashed out of nowhere last night. This was the moment to take him out... and every little oportunity they had is wasted. By the time the second movie comes, he is already at his prime again, ready to burn an entire underground empire to the ground.
@@luisreynamboarcos2958 And by the third, he's getting branded, chopping off his own finger and going to multiple people for help, just before falling off a building.
While I fell out of love with some of the action in this movie, the core of the matter is John is put in a downward spiral throughout each film, first being the one in control of the rampage he started until he digs himself deeper and deeper into his own grave before he is pushed to get himself killed to stop the violence and get the targets off of his remaining friend's backs, the ones that weren't yet killed for supporting him that is.
He may have taken more punishment than any normal being should, but it all came at a great cost in the end.
IMO he was vulnerable only up untill Vigo called him. He wanted to hear him out and when Vigo started all this bullshit about being calm and sort it out together, he lost it all. Because what Vigo should have done is to say that he is very sorry about what happened. Maybe even ask him anything in return, any impossible wish, that could calm his soul (like he did to John in the past)
his grieve lol what
@@ИванГорбенко-д3уI’m not sure that would have helped. If it wasn’t a brand new puppy sent to him by his fairly recently deceased wife maybe Viggo might have had a chance, but there’s no way he’s going to let that act slide and every step he’s forced to make along his old path is just pissing him off even more.
Well seeing John wick is 40-50 I don’t think he was close to he’s prime
Just having another son, and raising the new one better, having learned so much from your failures with the first one, seems like a far easier task than surviving this whole ordeal.
"What's 17 more years? I can always start again! Have another Kid!"
@@nathanfreeman8250 🤣
Adopt, don’t shop! 😂
Yea all his money wasted
Did you forget that humans have a limited lifespan? How old is Viggo, 60, maybe 65? You'd have to deal with a screaming and shitting kid for at least 8 years, and then a moody useless teenager. And then MAYBE after 18-23 years he's a sensible human.
I saw this movie in theaters with my old roommate, who is Russian, and he said during the scene where he doesn't share a drink with his son is an extreme form of disrespect. He said it basically means I do not respect you enough to drink with you, it could also mean I just gave you poison or farewell, but it could also mean I poured you a glass of cheap vodka while I drink the expensive stuff.
Which is funny because several of those are the case at once. He doesn't respect his son enough to drink with him anymore, and he did give him the cheap shit, specifically so it would burn when he threw it back up.
I heard that too during a break down
Someone pointed out to me the cheap v expensive vodka is exactly correct! Initial drinks vigo pours he doesn't drink, then punches Iosef to make him throw it up. Immediately goes over to the bar, cleans himself up, and pours himself a real drink.
Plot twist. The dog was the villain the whole time. Faked his death, set everything in motion.
The dog was the secret sith lord
Wait was the dog the blind guy or Bill Scarzgard then?
You cannot trust a beagle. ^-^
I'm here for this
(Large dun dun dun sound effect here)
9:32 - Had Iosef killed John Wick, that would have been a awful double edge sword. Sure, he gets the reputation but the moment he pushes to far (wich lets be honest, he will) towards the wrong person (wich there are many) and he becomes unable to stand his ground, hes not only fucked, but hell likely be killed on the spot.
In addition, John Wick was a very respectable and honorable assassin/bounty hunter. He was friendly towards many people who had several connections. I mean FFS, the moment he broke the Continental Rule, he was given an hour head start to prepare himself and run. The idea that Iosef will survive more then a week after people do enough digging about how Wick died, is not only laughable but impossible.
If they were willing to potentially deal with Viggo, that is.
This is still a criminal underworld built on strict rules and unless someone orders a hit on Iosef in revenge for John's murder, the rest of the "old guard" would likely just accept John's death as a tragedy and move on in respect of the order of things.
These people cut John a break because they were friends, but they are also the kinds of people that, unlike John, are more willing to let things go (unless of course John had other friends we weren't shown that are just as vengeful as him).
@@callmev3531 Halle Berry's character held a grudge against John while being his ally, for long enough that she would qualify.
movie turns into "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford"
3:34 There's more to the drink than what you say. He pours a drink for his son and himself to toast the successful mission in Atlantic City, and then _never drinks any of it_ because he's rejecting the toast. He pours it out untouched and then pours out a fresh drink in a new glass. It's a nonverbal but very pointed "fuck you" to the kid.
Was wondering if anybody else would point this out was about to comment it myself. Fantastic bit of subtle storytelling there that most people won't catch. This movie is FULL of moments like that.
@@dragonmaster1360 well, slavs would catch it. In slavic culture, intentionally refusing to drink after the toast without giving a reason (e.g. I'm sober, I have a medical condition, I'm driving today) is a way to show disrespect. As bad (or even worse) as refusing a handshake.
"Only thing he can't dodge is a car." I mean... considering how many he gets hit by in these movies...
Just a little bit of ironic humour, same as the Viggo isn't a comic book character joke, he might not be, but John Wick is
I know it's like he can't use movie magic to his advantage where's the Chinese super jumps?
Cars are faster then bullets obviously, gaaaawd figure it out🤷♂️
he tanks them
@@DakotaJohnston-n7x Well, you have to move further to dodge a car.
1:35 I've always loved how Viggo didn't get mad at Aurelio at the end of that phone call.
"Oh"
@WolfhoundPilot "you know what? Never in my life I ever heard such a good reason to punch someone, actually, I'm calling this little shit, have to punch him too"
It perfectly encompassed how utterly terrifying Wick is.
Tbf... would you get angry?
@@WolfhoundPilot That's the line that setup the franchise
When John told about the dog being a gift, that wasn’t “Cry me a river”. That was when it was clear Why he was so upset and would never stop.
Yes, I really wish the author of this video would have pointed that out because it is a really awesome detail.
Now, I cannot speak a word of Russian, but I can understand tone, inflection, facial and body language. Before they put the bag over John's head, The mob boss (I can't spell his name offhand) Is clearly all the more agitated by John's speech, muttering things to himself in Russian, more than likely pejoratives. Because it was this moment when he understood the enormity of what his son had done. It wasn't just any dog: It was the wife's dog, her final gift to John in order to help John cope with her passing.
There are undoubtedly countless times where this man probably thinks to himself, What could I have done better? How could I have handled this better? Maybe I should have talked to John differently the only time he picked up the phone?
But now, he realizes that there was never a possible way to diffuse this situation.
During the call with Aurelio, Vigo's life flashed before his eyes as he knew deep down his fate and the fate of his empire and legacy were sealed. The time had come to pay back the deal he made with the Devil, as the Grim Reaper himself is coming
Technicly Vigo could have dodge all that had he done one simple thing: Tell John where hes Son is currently and quietly call back any important people and guards from the club to make it easier.
Yes, he would losse an Heir to his criminal empire, but there were more dificult options he could have picked instead of trying to stop the goddamn Boogeyman.
@@peterwhite6415but that's the thing. What kind of man gives up his own son to spare his own life? If anyone else caught wind of it from the other crime families, he'd be finished on the spot, even if that somehow convinced Wick to leave him alone.
All he could heard was "On a scale from 1 to 10 my friend, *YOU'RE F U C K E D* "
You see this is the difference between the Italians/Irish and the Russians. The Italians and Irish will be like "I love you dearly my son, but you fucked up to badly. We are going to have to sacrifice you to appease the Devil."
XD "Bye Son" *leaves him duct taped in Johns Drive Way*
Call the Irish what you wish, but they are a practical lot 🤣
Now that I think about it the Japanese would probably kill the kid and leave his corpse on John's front door step.
@@DracoInduperator xD probably leave a polite note too
@@stingerjohnny9951Pretty easy to sacrifice one when you have 10 others.😂
Playing super small devils Advocate here but the main reason that Vegos Son threw up so easilu after being punch was because his dad just gave him a glass of some kind of alcohol which was on purpose because it would have burned coming back up adding more to the "punishment"
Yeah fair enough bro, I can see that head canon making sense, but fuck me, it's just funny to think that his son got one punched y'know? Like in Australia that's legit just a straight up felony
@Nomsynho yeah its pretty wild but hilarious. Honestly tho he had it coming.
@@Nomsynho I think you're both correct. Viggo knows how long it takes for vodka to go down, especially with the speed the kid's drinking it. He times his punch to the diaphragm and upper stomach to trigger a violent breath out and in which (getting the wind knocked out) which then also irritates all of the digestive lining like a particularly unkind Heimlich maneuver to force all that out of his digestive tract.
It shows the kid that he can't even take a punch, like you said, and you're doing it in front of your minion to intimidate the minion AND to make your son feel smaller.
wasn't that from a Cinemawins vidoe?
@@thetalantonx if thr Heimlich maneuver was a fighting technique 😂
Viggo's "Oh." really sells just how absolutely screwed he is. The shoulder slump, the utterly defeated look, excellent acting.
Vigo to Marcus: Why didnt you put a bullet in him when you had the chance?
Marcus to vigo: Why didnt YOU put a bullet in him when you had the chance? *gets shot in the face*
And he *would've* actually worked, him saying that, because he was actually there watching Viggo leave, trusting his men to kill John in a humiliating fashion.
So Marcus in his last moments would be mocking Viggo's arrogance.
"Sir, why don't we strangle him. Ya know, just to mess with him, show 'em who's boss."
*Ad Time* - **Surprise, it's for Mahatma rice**
"Don't play with your food..."
Around 2/3 of the way through the movie, maybe 3/4, you start to see that the apple didn't fall ALL that far away from the tree. And that poor decisions kinda run in the family.
He's mature & experienced enough to hide it much better, but he ultimately makes the same mistakes as his son.
14:39, 19:32, There may have been other antagonists in this series, but Viggo is arguably the best one because of how his story plays out like a mythical tragedy, a man making a deal with a monster to destroy his enemies to make himself a king, only for his own son to anger that monster into undoing the man's kingdom.
It's made all the sadder with this franchise's take on most of the younger assassins and High Table members in this universe as pompous, treacherous and increasingly dismissive of honor and the rules of this world in their ambition, contrasting John, Winston and the Bowery King and their increasing animosity towards the High Table and it's increasingly domineering attitude towards its members.
Viggo, while arrogant and cruel, is part of that old guard that is being phased out and replaced with, 2:05, lesser individuals like Iosef, Perkins, Santino and the Marquis, an unlike those others, he understands this fact, so his empire collapsing around him as he tries to hold onto what power he has left is framed by the film itself as tragic.
Even John's revenge against Iosef and him rings hollow in the end, as it is only the start of a rampage that John himself becomes trapped in until it kills him, having been unable to move on and process his grief over losing his wife in a healthy way.
1:23, Also, the character was hilarious when he wanted to be and had cool little character details, like taking increasing heavier substances, from alcohol to weed, until he's fully inebriated by the end.
Yeah this franchise went from kinda silly action movie to just cartoonishly absurd. Is everyone an assassin? Why isn't the entire world in constant chaos and anarchy with such a massive assassin community? Why won't even a single person respect John Wick's skill and reputation? After the first movie it just turned into a hyper violent live action cartoon.
@ More so, it went from contained action thriller with hints of a larger criminal underworld with it's own culture and rules to an alternate history setting with a more exaggerated, comic book reality.
Can't really call that a flaw since it was partially inspired by anime and comics as a genre, though I do wish they made it feel less like a video game with how they framed the action at times, spawning enemies only for John to mow them down.
erm ackshukly alcohol is a heavier substance than weed, nerr
@@uncroppedsoop Fine, his more *frequent* substance use.
Also "NNNEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRDD".
2:50 viggo actually gave his son alcohol before punching him so it would burn on the way back up
the way they built the character of John Wick up like they did was brilliant.
it's implied that if Iosef was paying attention he should know exactly who john wick is and what he did to build up the organization that Iosef himself is a part of it.
I can only imagine the conflict going on inside Viggo after that phone call. like do you Blame your stupid entitled son? do you blame yourself for possibly not letting him know who John was?
all you know is the Guy who cleared the way for you to build your empire is coming back to dismantle it one brick at a time.
and that Dog was Tiny they didn't have to kill it. I mean John would have been mad about his Car being gone but he could have easily gotten another one but you killed the one thing that gave him comfort and allowed him to remember his wife.
In the second movie, we see that his wife got him that car and he kept the card from her in the glove box. There's a chance he would've let it go, or at least been more willing to talk with Viggo peacefully about it, but it still would've been a pretty big insult to him. Hard to imagine he wouldn't attempt to get it back somehow, at least.
@@JacklynBurn even though the car was also from his wife, it'd be a lot easier to forgive than killing his dog, especially since a stolen car can be returned
@@captainroberts6318 Yeah, that's what I was meaning when I said about there being a chance of him "letting it go" or talking it out with Viggo. Apologies that it was unclear!
@JacklynBurn True. I think in John Wick's logic, he could have sort of forgiven him about the car. Stealing cars isn't uncommon, and he could have used his connections to get it back somehow. Even if it was damaged, it could have been repaired. But killing the dog was an unnecessary act of excessive sadism and cruelty. It's an innocent life that was taken. Some people steal cars to get money or for the thrill of it. But you really have to be messed up in the head to kill a pet.
@@JacklynBurn if he hadn't killed the dog I would think the chop shop guy who seems to be on good terms with John, would have taken the car from viggo's son and possibly diffused the situation to some extent by ensuring John got the car back. No dead dog, car returned, it's possible John would just ring up viggo and tell him to teach his idiot son a lesson before he gets himself killed stealing from the wrong guy.
I like how the lawyer might have survived... but then Vigo runs him over when he crashes into John's car
John did have several friends and collectors waiting to for him to pay back so I'm not sure that killing him in his bed was going to be so smooth afterwards.
Yeah, I wouldn’t hate to see an alternate universe where John did die and the chaos that ensued after.
@@murphyrutledge5590 i suspect we'll see the fallout of john's actions and legacy in JOHN WICK 5 / JOHN WICKS. people die, but legends are forever. who's to say how hot the fire wick lit will burn, or how many will be caught up in the inferno of his wake?
Yeesh, imagine how fucking terrifying one must be to have a CRIME BOSS shaking in his boots just to smooth things over with the person in question. And all because the crime boss’s son shot the dog of a fear higher than the literal boogy man.
John Wick killed all his rivals in one night if I'm not mistaken. I'd say that would terrify anyone if you know THAT sort of monstrosity is now gunning for you.
@@maximmachinegun7206 But it’s especially important that it’s a mafia man that’s the one shaking in his boots and praying to God almighty

I'd have serious doubts about that idiot being my actual son. Just look at that face, right?
“Blank from blank point of view is hilarious” is honestly one of my favourite new genre
That was fun.
One of the best aspects of the movie for me is everyone seemed to like John Wick as a friend. It wasn't simple respect. They seemed to legitimately care for the man. Even Vigo seemed to consider John a friend. That aspect is partly why John was able to get away with so much surviving.
The moment he said, your son stole John Wick’s car and killed his dog. That oh, you saw all the cool and demeanor leave his face.
One weird thing: EVERYONE, and not just in America, but globally, knows who John Wick is. The only person that doesn't seem to know him by name AND recognize him in any of the films is this kid and his dad built his empire on John's back? What? lmao
Did not know how badly I wanted this video until I saw it pop up. Thank you. I'm going to enjoy this.
call me unempathetic, unprotective not very paternal, but if i had a kid that much of an annoying pompous little shit who i hated anyway who just pissed off JOHN WICK then... call me omni-man, cause i'll immediately be saying "What's 17 more years? I can always start again... make another kid." and giving him to wick myself.
Yeah, here´s the thing though...
You can´t just hand over your own son to an assassin, in order to kill him, no matter how stupid your spawn is or how fearsome said assassin is, as a gangster boss.
Because that makes you look weak in front of your minions and specially in front of your enemies. The moment you do that, they will eat you alive, so you have to show strenght.
@@doublep1980 well fair point, but you could just tell him to go have fun at a club or something and give john wick a tip off, just looks like a regular assassination. i wasn't suggesting literally handing him over, just sort of ignoring the situation and letting it sort itself out and pretending you didn't know.
A simple “hey this club is pretty neat. Go there for the night, ill cover the tab as i sort this shit out” and insta call Wick like “bro my son fucked up, he is at (club), if you wanna kill him, have fun. Any agreement we have prior will not change.”
will have sorted everything out, and the movie woulda been like 45 mins long
@@doublep1980 well, it can be organised in another way, like. "I promised you protection and peace, but my son destroyed it. As a man of honour, i let you decide his faith". Imagine how mad badass he would seem, a man who have no problem in sacrificing his own son to maintain a fair deal. It's reckless, but i think it can work in a way to make Vigo look stronger
@@doublep1980 True. But even if he did it in broad daylight, it's John Wick. It would be understandable.
"All this for a dog" prime example of The Butterfly Effect
Thats not the butterfly effect, thats actions have consequences.
The Butterfly Effect applies more to time travel imo, like another reply said, this just an example of actions having consequences
9:30 tbh john doesn’t fall for traps… he just doesn’t care because he’s gonna plow straight through to his true target anyway. This man is textbook definition unstoppable force
Viggos brother is the smartest person in the whole series is the only fucker who saw john wick freacking killing a 100 people in 5 minutes and went: "you know.... maybe the car is not worth my life and the other half of my gang, would you like me to return it to you and we call even? Just take your car away, i take what is left of my gang and we forget that the other exists?" And just like that he is alive
It was all Viggo's fault for not teaching his son the family history. 😂
it's pretty clear that viggo barely raised his son. wick may have laid the foundations in blood and bone, but viggo was still in the process of finishing his empire-building when the princeling poked the baba yaga.
No-one will kill in the murder hotel because they have a rule about not killing. Unlike the rest of the world where murder is legal.
High-level corruption protects the International Most-Wanted while they reside in the walls of the Continental, but all that the upper management asks is that their customers refrain from killing each other while they're giving the Continental their money.

“Have you ever wondered how criminals who know they can’t trust one another are still able to conduct business with eachother?”
“They replace trust with fear and the threat of violence”

I love the fact that he ALSO doesn't shoot Wick. Apple didn't fall that far from the tree, huh dad?
6:22 I was expecting a sudden “CALL EVERYOOOOONE!!!!!” To pop up
EEEEVERYOOONEE!
My brother from across the pond in Christ... I'm going to need immediate emergency surgery from the amount of whiplash that you give me from these videos
Did you get hit by that car as well? Man...
"You took that from me. YOU KILLED THAT FROM ME!"
Honestly, one of the best lines in that movie.
Hands down the best set up in cinema history
That one single "...oh" was all I needed to know I was about to be in for a ride
I have to slightly disagree that John has a tendency to fall for traps. I don't think he ever really does, he mostly knows when something is a trap, he just kinda doesn't care. Which is kinda one of the big things about the character. His sheer force of will to achieve his goal is almost superhuman.
Sometimes springing the trap is the only way to unravel it.
Another thing. He knee it was a trap. He's suicidal and on a rampage. Therefore he quite literally didn't care. They could have filled it with radioactive waste and put signs all over it, and he'd still had gone in
"About as useful as a chocolate teapot. " I AM SO STEALING THAT !!! =D
17:20 honestly my guess is hes so full of grief, not to mention all the alcohol and drugs, that he definitely wasnt thinking clearly enough to understand that hes making it worse.
2:58 no, no, he drinked vodka first, the punch Made the vodka go up again, that's why he pucked.
From experience.
"you struck my son" *with full intent to skin that guy*
"Yeah he fucked wirh John Wick"
"UNDERSTANDABLE HAVE A NICE DAY"
When they had John Wich tied up in a chair, and DIDN'T just shot him, I had vivid Scotty Evil flashbacks!
Viggo is very much a comic book character. The entire wick franchise is absolutely a comic book reality
Not a comic book, but a video game. In second movie where council sends armoured goons after Wick - normal bullets literally deflecting from their armour, so he needs to use armor-piercing slugs for shotgun and better pistol - was screaming video games to me. That's what you regularly see in shooters.
@@UristMcKerman well yeah, it's also go elements of an FPS to it, I'm talking about the overall tone and theme of the narrative. How the world is structured. Everything is hyper-stylized, with huge, dramatic setpieces, every character is a larger than life person, with exaggerated traits, either in attire or accent (often both). They run ridiculous organizations that you only ever see in comics, like an assassin ballerina school. Or a hotel only for assassins. The lighting, camera angles, the minimalist dialogue and painfully shallow plot, all of it is very reminiscent of a comic book/graphic novel. Specifically something like from a Dark Horse comic label, or some indi title published as a limited run.
@happyninja42 exactly 👍
@@UristMcKerman the John Wick / Hex game is punishingly difficult, but it's a wonderful peak into the mind of the world's greatest boogeyman
2:57 He puked instantly because he just drank vodka, it was an intentional move on Viggos part.
19:22 loved the sneaky Wheel of Time reference, 10/10
Also the rest of the video was great, but tht one joke inspired me to comment :D
Perhaps offering to get him a new dog instead would've gone a long way lol
Unlikely, since the now dead dog was a gift from his late wife.
That's the difference between the Italians/Irish and the Russians. The Italians and Irish will be like "I love you dearly my son, but you fucked up to badly. We are going to have to sacrifice you to appease the Devil." And if the son had been offered up to him, John Wick would likely have left the rest of the family alone.
@@DracoInduperator I love the phrasing of that, lol
@@DracoInduperator"were gonna have to sacrifice you to the devil. You do understand right? You summoned him
I think it would've had the opposite effect.
Its not just over a dog/car its because it was his only way to move forward from grieving and bare in mind she only died less than 2 months ago so his heart is heavy on being down and hurt so at this point he doesnt care whether or not he dies because it'll end his grievance and internal suffering
"Shoot it up like a... not gonna say it"... huh I wonder what he could have been trying to say, must have been silenced by viggo there 👀
Yep he silenced me, I am sleeping with the fishes
Yeah, Viggo really schooled him.
Ironically enough, there also happens to be a school bus in the scene.
Lil dude turned into Reek real quick when daddy rocked his shit lol
Honestly, his role in GoT makes this whole movie funnier to me.
😂😂😂
Calling him "Sweet summer child "
Was expecting more than just a play by play of the plot.
11:25 - The editing set up and comedic timing for this joke were both perfect. Holy shit.
Definitly do Kung fu panda 1 from Tai lungs perspective! best call i have made in years fr
Second this request 👌🏻
11:27 Am American. You made me tell that horribly dark joke in my own head. Subscribed.
Should talk about Chicken Run from a Mrs. Tweedy's perspective. Now _that_ is hilarious.
Yessssss
This man said "Crotch Goblin" a freaking brilliant genius! BRILLIANT!!!💯👑😎
I would kill for more videos like this on the John Wick films. It's not only comedic, but it gives us an idea of the other half of the story. Good stuff.
"We stole his car..and killed his dog."
His face: 🫠
Brother knew they were dead lmao
How did I end up watching all this
This is how criminals feel in Gotham whenever Batman is after them
"Oh my sweet summer child" 😂Good one-
He didn't just steal John Wick's car and kill his dog. The dog was a gift from his now dead wife.....
I watched this movie for the first time with this perspective running in my head and the movie became a comical badass show. Such an awesome start to the movie.
I think Vigo keeps his minion with him in the bar to stop vigo from beat his own son too much
He could have solved it all just by calling Wick up and saying "Yep, my son's here. come kill him then we can have coffee after it"
That honestly would have been the smartest thing to do, Vigo at 60 could still have a child or adopt an heir making one of his men the next in line.
I love the wheel of time reference.
Viggo's silence when he was given the news was GREAT acting and direction. The feeling of powerlessness for what was to come was very much well shown there.
I've always liked the idea that Wick has been inactive long enough that the young guys that attacked him genuinely didn't know who he was, and that's what pissed Wick off more than anything. The fact that he had minimal security makes me think that Wick believed his reputation was enough to make people leave him alone and the idea that there's a generation that doesn't recognize him and were willing to do this put him over the edge, combined with everything else
After seeing a fair amount of your videos and enjoying all of them, I finally subscribed.
There's something about a guy half-doing a Russell Brand impression while talking about films from the perspective of the villain that is entertaining. Keep up the good work! 👍🏻
Rather interestingly, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret, if you saw my Voldemort Part 2 video, I said "Burnham On Crouch, I've been there..." this is actually where I was born, Russel Brand grew up around Basildon and Grays, which is where a bunch of my friends are from, it's just the local accent, it's not an impression LMAO.
After that call where you find out what happened, that's when you tie up your son, and call Wick. "I heard what happened. I have him tied up. My guards will not do anything to stop you."
I mean… it’s his son. He’s not just going to give him up like that.
@Solar_1011
I'm saying if I built an empire off Wick's hard work, I wouldn't let it be endangered by my too stupid to keep living son.
Ive watched this movie many, many times, and everytime i notice something new about Viggo that makes his character more enjoyable/humorous.
POV: Namek saga to early Android saga Frieza. Went from powerful emperor with almost no equal to a punching bag.
Nice Black Mirror Reference at 10:41
new fear unlocked.

Viggo is the MVP of that film. He lets you know just what John is. His fear is brilliantly portrayed. R.I.P. Mr Nyqvist
I love how The Mimugiwara no Goofy format is taking off
I love his format so much, I mean, I can't give him all the credit for the inspiration, the idea I had was "pitch meeting meets Mugiwara No Goofy with dry british humour"
I love his channnel as well@Nomsynho
John: I’ll see you later.
Vigo*dying* :Please no.
Main issue I have with the movie is that while yes Viggo was so well written initially and it was great to see a character actually understand how fucked the situation is it immediately undoes all of it. Viggo does a complete 180 from “He’s the one you send to kill the fucking boogeyman”, “We gave him and impossible task and it built the foundation of what we are today”, and “You will do nothing because you can do nothing” to then hurling all his men to their deaths and destroying his organization by putting it in the line of fire. As much as he might care about his son it would make more sense to just cut him loose and let him deal with the consequences of his own mistake. The initial call to attempt to smooth things was fair but beyond that Viggo acts like a moron. Not to mention that in the miracle case where they do capture John Wick he does the whole villain monologue and leaves the room so his henchman can finish the job rather than just killing him right there when they had the chance.
Still a fun movie overall but they really torpedoed Viggo’s character after the great set up.
Viggo's dumbass son got the drop on John, best him senseless, stole his car and killed his dog with a handful of his equally dumb cronies. Always felt like a lot of the mistakes he made were because that left him thinking John must have lost his edge and would slip up eventually and terminally.
If you had a son that you took at least 30 years of your life to raise into a proper killer, that you took pride in for most cases, that you made into the type of man Iosef is then you wouldn't back down. Even in the face of death itself, You would put up a fight for your own blood even if they deserved it and nothing could stop it. Plus as a Mob Boss, If you easily gave up your own kin like that, You would lose so much respect and power you built up over the years.
@@livelife4928 his son dug his own hole. It’s like a police officer seeing his son get the death penalty for murder. He may not like it but it’s the consequences of his son’s own actions.
As to respect how much respect does Viggo have after getting most of his subordinates killed, their money burned, his son dies regardless, and then Viggo dies himself. He’d have more respect from his men by not throwing them and the whole organization he leads into a proverbial meat grinder for his idiot son’s screw ups.
@@CeliriaRose it's a lose lose situation. For people like the Tarasov family, respect and imagery are to die for. It's why Iosef went after John in the first place. John " disrespected " him by not bowing his head down in their first interaction and openly telling him to back the heck off in front of his subordinates. At this time, he thought John was a nobody and this act alone was enough for him to come to his house and wreck his life in any way he could. Viggo taught him this and Viggo is no different himself
"you will do nothing because you can do nothing, now get the f**k outta my sight" is one of my favorite quotes I've ever heard in a movie. A brilliant line to summise even the big bad boss recognizes you've enraged a monster.
Of note is that Tarasov gave his son a shot of vodka to drink shortly before punching him in the gut so that the vodka also burns on its way up again.
19:00 gotta love the WoT reference ❤
What's the music that starts playing at 00:20

Man, I adore that you give my boy goofy his props while taking this format on cause it's fantastic to analyze most action media
Theon keeps messing with all the wrong people
The phone call scene from the first movie is one of my favorite scenes in any movie period. It so effectively sets John up as a near force of nature, without him speaking a single word. He isn't gleeful, he isn't cocky, petty, out for power, or control - but what has been done, cannot be undone, and now what will happen will happen.
He said enough.
What i never understood was how did his son not know who John wick was surely his father would have told him if you ever bump into this man even accidentally you apologise and walk away. And why was wick so easy to beat when they broke in and killed his dog he barely even fought back.
1) Its implied that John had been retired for at least a couple of years by the time they cross paths at that gas station. No need to warn your son about a long-gone legend.
There's also a theme of respect among the old guard - Marcus, when sent to kill John, saves his life instead of following the contract. In 2, John spares Cassian as a "professional courtesy", but doesn't do the same when he kills Santino's mute bodyguard - honor and respect are offered in kind.
2) He's still grieving for his wife and not in the assassin mindset. You can see how quickly that changes, killing the hit team the same night he lost his car and Daisy.
@ 1) yeah why warn your son about a long gone legend that used to work for you that could dismantle your entire empire within days kill your son then you. 2) He still has his phone number and address and obviously fears him or why call him and almost beg him not to come after his son even the guy in the garage knew he could punch his son and get away with it because when the dad found out why he’d be furious with the son.
3) I’m sure your gonna leave some long winded answer to this like uh he didn’t have his assassin powers activated or his special suit or weapon but I’m not gonna respond as I’m sure you’ve seen the movie 20 times and know all the characters names like they were your friends because i don’t care if he had informed his son who Wick was he’d/they’d still be alive and doing their thing.
@@Jacobstaffordshire2010 1) 2)It’s heavily implied that Viggo had no use for any of the numbers from his past, given how he had to de-dust the ‘little black book’ before calling him.
3)If he had told his son who John was, then there is no movie. At some point you just accept things as is and don’t worry about it too much.
The wheel of time reference earned you my sub! Amazing video
