Will we ever get another movie that comes out of nowhere and

I think not but mostly because films don't just "come out of nowhere" anymore. The amount of coverage Hollywood gets these days is crazy.

It already happened, anon.

Actually that's more because of the Internet then it is about more coverage. Back in the day you would get a trailer and then some tv reports in entertainment channels that you would see only if you caught them on tv. And magazine promotion. With the Internet we know the entire cast of the film months before it's even released

I don't know why this shitty, generic action flick is so popular.

>>79687011
Yes thank you, that's what I meant. My English is bad

>>79687016
Because of its gamechanging second half.

Transcendental action ciné.

It happened, it opened the doors for capeshit movies, Marvel flicks, ensemble cast....

Honestly, Superman Returns was better. The plane rescue scene wiped the floor with everything in Man of Steel.

Radar doesn't detect human beings.

Which lead to CGI in the second film instead of live action, and all that has done is give us shitty shakey cam for years now.


Empty voids of a film where entire cities are upended and smashed, and instead of going WOW you sit there bored.

There is nothing in those pictures that made the down-credit Hollywood crowd go running out of the theater and call all their union reps and demand to know why they weren't included in those projects, and by the way, how in the holy hell did they even do that bullet time thing, and the liquid glass, no not Neo, the helicopter building crash shot and if I don;t get a job on the next Wakowski thing I'm filing a greivance and camping on your fucking lawn in BH until you have to either get me hired or thrown in jail, because just fuck. Fuck!

That's what OP meant.

We were lucky to see it happen once. For all the shit I'd love to recount about him as the devil's own as human being, we really owe Silver for this more than the Waks. He caught them and corralled them at the exact moment they had to be exploited. Not a month to late or too soon. Fucker tamed the whirlwind for that one.

John Wick 2 made me feel that way. For the first time in years, I left the theater with a feeling of awe. Best fight action scenes in cinema since The Matrix, hands down. Add to that the masterful build-up, the mesmerizing and high-concept cinematography of the second half and the fact that Kino Reeves just revived his career out of the blue and re-installed himself as one of big Hollywood's action stars and box-office grabbers.

I can guarantee you many people in the industry left the theater thinking the same thing. And it all came out of left field, no one in Hollywood was paying attention to this original-mythology franchise that Keanu was brewing. They literally did it out of nothing: they made a movie just for the stunts, a movie that barely has characters, made just style, plot and action... and yet it's strangely close to a masterpiece.

A lot of the gamechanging aspects of The Matrix came from the same paradigm.

It's no wonder the exact same guys who did the Matrix's stunts are the main creative force behind John Wick.

Yes there is, his name is John Wick
