I always liked equilibrium for what it was especially the gun-fu choreography & being one of the first films to start the trend of Sean Bean having his character inevitably die but it's not touching John Wick.

Given the premise of the movie and how emotions are handled across the board, I can never get past taye diggs fukking grinning and smiling all movie long with no repercussions. :snoop:

shyt almost ruins the whole thing for me. I blame the director for letting that ever see the final cut.

Love this movie. Very cool take on 1984. I think it just did shyt that people hadn't seen before. I mean this came out before the matrix if I'm not mistaken so the whole using guns while doing cool shyt was not seen in a major movie besides the John woo shyt like hard boiled.

It came out after the Matrix and Hard Boiled is a stone cold classic :wow:

The way they did Taye Diggs :stopitslime:

Equilibrium is underrated and a good film but John Wick upped the levels. Some of you hold on to this weird idea that just because something came out first it automatically makes it the best.

Pretty sure the title said that Wick took goat gunfu title. I'm discussing ehow we view the movie in comparison to what came after it.

Movie is criminally underrated.

I blame it on the marketing, "best action since the matrix".

My face then::comeon:


My face after seeing it::ohhh:

same with daybreakers. Best vampire movie of all time. No one gave a shyt about it when it came out.
