re: Hot Take: Equalizer franchise is much better than the John Wick franchise

quote:

The larger John Wick universe with the whole assassin subculture having their own chain of hotels and chain of management elevates this series for me. Its something unique rather than just being set in the real world.

As deadly as most of their culture is, it's like watching vampires going against one another. They're all killers. Wick isn't killing for the greater good like The Equalizer. He's out for revenge.

I liked the first Equalizer, but the character is too nice. They try to develop his old universe is the 2nd movie and fail, because none of his old cohorts interested me. Not the ones that went bad or the one's he got help from.

I still want a Peter Quinn movie that's kind of a prequel to Homeland.
