JOHN WICK 4: Some questions answered...SPOILER ALERT!

 Whenever a long awaited movie comes out the critics and analysts are at the ready.


Sometimes they are so eager to make a mark with their keen observations that they miss nuances in the story that enhance the plot. 


Here are some answers that I have come up with to some of the questions regarding consistency and plot.


Tracker: Mr. Nobody

-Some seem to think that "Mr. Nobody" is a conundrum. A mystery that has no explanation. Almost as if he was inserted into the story at the last minute. 

He is indeed strange. He seems committed to an unknown and unstated objective. He wants to drive up the bounty on Wick's head. 

But to what end? 

Anyway, a question came up in the forums about his control over his "support animal."

The dog always seems to make the right decision to forward the plot even when his master is entrapped in dramatic irony.

How can this be? Why did the dog not attack Caine instead of the man behind him?

The answer here is quite simple. The dog does not attack ANY of the people who were seated at the poker table. Mr. Nobody was looking past Caine when he gave the "kill" command. 


Caine:

-Is he blind? Is he a coward? Is he the real villain?

I can answer one of those questions. 

Yes. Caine is blind. But what most do not realize is that there is a spectrum to blindness. 

His eyes have been slit by a blade of some sort in a vertical fashion. If the cut was deep enough, that means his cornea, iris, lens, and the muscles that control the iris were damaged. These parts of the eye control how much light enters the eye. The amount of light entering the eye determines how much color is seen, how defined sight is and how far away one can see.

The anterior and inner eyeball were not damaged. So he can still process whatever light bounces off his environment.

Can he see the mustard stain on your shirt? Probably not. Be he can still stain your shirt with your own blood. 

The Bowery King:

-What is his connection to the high table?

I can't answer that for sure. But I have a pretty grounded theory. 

The symbol that Winston gives Wick to seek asylum within the King's headquarters in Paris looks familiar...

Goon Elimination Techniques

If you love martial arts movies like I do then you already know the formula. ....but I'm not here to talk about that today. I showed up to blow up how those poor unfortunate souls tasked with protecting the bad guy get LAID OUT by the hero. 11. The Warning Yell. -Look, y'all bout to get fucked up. This is the emergency get-yo-ass-out the way broadcast system. This is not a test.   10 . Slappin' ya face! -These goons are so low level that an open hand and a yell is all it takes to get them out of the way. Some might mistake these moves for chops or pressure points. Naw, this be straight up pimpin' without the baby powder.  Yeah I know, she is using a shoe. But that shit is still funny!   The real Slap Attack! 9. Get Outta Here! -What Scorpion would do with these fools, the hero does the opposite. He or She literally shoves, flips, or kicks them out of the way. While finding themselves dazed and confused their brains are no longer required t...

TRYING ME 05/23/25

  There is this dumb, fake ass bitch at my job has been trying me since I was hired.  She's married, overweight and recently a new mother.  When I was hired, she was pregnant and I thought I would only be at the company until she returned from maternity leave.  Before she left, she made sure to act a complete ass towards me whenever possible.  While training me the Ukraine Russia conflict came up (this was back in the early stages). I made a comment (it was just me and her in the room) generally stating that Russia needs to stop flexing because it is affecting the US economy (and it was because we had to impose shipping fees on our customers etc.). This bitch proceeds to raise her voice and scold me about how people are dying and what not.  I let it go. I didn't say anything to her for 2 reasons:  1. The bitch was so pregnant I didn't want to put her into labor.  2. The bitch was so pregnant she obviously was miserable and cognitively impaired....

HOOD RAT ESPIONAGE

 I know I'm wrong.  Calling someone a hood rat is disrespectful, borderline racist (depending on who is using it and context), and just ratchet.  But some bitches out here exhibit the type of behavior that warrants no other mot juste. I have had 2 separate seemingly unrelated women try this shit on me within 6 months.  The first one was a mother of 4 children. Her baby's father (of the 3 smallest) is an alcoholic and, according to her, abusive.  This woman has ghosted me more than once. I should have taken the hint and just left her alone.  After lending her money (which she paid back) and calling the police on her drunk ass baby daddy at her request,  she proceeded to admonish me for my "negative energy." I texted her on the day of her planned birth of the 3rd child of this fool and asked if the "demon" was still at the house. She had previously told me that she didn't want this man at the birth of his own child.  I got a nasty text about negativ...
