A return to Big Wick Energy, baby! John Wick Chapter 4 is in theaters now and there's so much to unpack. Let's sit with first reactions to the film, unravel a few juicy details, dissect our end credits scene, and dive into a perhaps unhinged theory about a potential John Wick 5 tied to the Bowery King, the High Table, and the inevitability of revolution.

Why can John Wick get hit by so many cars? How did he survive a fall off a massive hotel, slapping into every balcony in New York City on the way down? in lieu of a normal, stale recap before John Wick Chapter 4, let's look at the fantasy action-adventure genre ghost of the past, examine the soul, hell, purgatory, Dante, Odysseus, Hades, Zeus, Highlander (I won't apologize) and more. All in all having a very unnormal amount of love and emotion around the possibility of immortality or WORSE in #JohnWick.

in this short, sweet, and vaguely festive episode, let's ask ourselves why Chad Stahelski chose a piece from the Nutcracker- and specifically THAT piece- to introduce the ballet dojo and John Wick's past life as J. J. Ballet in John Wick 3: Parabellum. Does Len Wiseman have what it takes to suffer as well as Stahelski and Tchaikovsky? Will y'all finally watch The Villainess so Mira can do a side episode on it?

With a brief drought in John Wick content since #CinemaCon, we're thinking he's back!!! Our first full length trailer for John Wick 4 is out and Mira watched it repeatedly for many hours to squeeze the life out of it. Let's chat what Winston might be up to, Highlander, Gun Fu Horses, and wolf girls, then enter a special theme-based honeypot on death and grief based on the use of the song Seasons in the Sun.

CinemaCon in Las Vegas gave press and theater owners the first glimpse of John Wick Chapter 4 footage. They did not allow the public (ME) to see it and I'm making it everybody's problem. A leaked promotional image shows John Wick surrounded by a blossoming branch of a cherry tree so of course I examine the significance of seasons to the John Wick series as well as dive into both Westerna and Eastern literature's relationship to Sakura. I touch on the rumors of Hagakure as a subtitle as well as give an introduction to Hagakure, Bushido, Samurai Code, and its application in storytelling. Plus ballerinas, nunchucks, and the word blaise!

Sakura backing is a traditional song called "Sakura," and the backing for the Hagakure section is a traditional song from the Edo period called Godanno-Shirabe.

How does the art of the colonial himbo extend to John Wick? What is the downside of male power struggle in patriarchy? Do you ever feel sad when you watch Love Island? What do women see in Byronic heroes and what does that say about how colonialism hurts everyone? Is this not very Bruce Lee of us? What is dual power and what could it tell us about the Bowery King and the story going forward from John Wick 3: Parabellum?

It's 2021 and we may as well talk about Himbos. On this episode of Be Seeing You, we examine the feral tenderness that attracts women to men of action by taking a deep dive into the feral hot guy who has captured women's eyes and gotten them diagnosed with hysteria since 1912: Tarzan. In part one you'll hear about Tarzan's origins, women's connection to jungles and horses, and how colonialism and the English Crown made all of it worse.

In this long overdue episode of Be Seeing You, let's dig into the latest news and rumors surrounding John Wick 4 & 5 (filming again in June). Apologies for the lack of intro, outro, or behindtro music for this one... my laptop had an emotional breakdown and I am simply thankful it didn't eat the entire episode.
