John Wick Chapter 2

To quote Max Landis; "They don't make action movies like this anymore"

Keanu Reeves is the action hero that we deserve. And I even put it up there with Empire Strikes Back levels of quality.

That is all. A+ and money worth spending. Go see the movie because you'll have a great time. And between this and Split 2017 is shaping up to be a promising year movie wise.

Why Rey Joining The Darkside Is What The New Trilogy Needs

The title alone should be an indication of what the topic is about.

Everyone and their own mother have speculations as to how the new trilogy is going to end. Even Jeremy got his two cents in. Well today I'm going to provide my own theory as to how the new trilogy could end.

In the original trilogy, it was about Luke bringing balance into the force by having the light side achieve victory. In the new trilogy imagine how ballsy it would be if Rey did the opposite? Cause when I think of bringing balance into the force it's not due to favoring one side over the other. No. It's about looking at both sides of the equation and realizing that both sides have it's negatives but they both have it's positives.

What I would like to see is Rey figuring out a way to have the light and dark side of the force become one. Use both sides to defeat Snoak. If Star Wars had taught me anything it's that the original trilogy tells us that Obi-Wan's old Jedi methods are a little dated and it's time for the Jedi teachings to be updated a little. The same should go for Luke.

Look at it like this. Would you want the new trilogy to end in the same manner the original trilogy did? Or would you want the new trilogy to shake things up a little but in a good way? Just think of where Rey embracing The Dark & Light Side of The Force could do for future adaptations? If this new trilogy has any chance of being as timeless as the original trilogy then this is the direction it needs to go. The Grey Side of The Force.
