BC MARCH MADNESS 2025 - Day 2
Added 2025-03-02 19:00:08 +0000 UTCIt was kind of close, but ultimately you folks decided that you preferred "More Dick" to "Some Pulp" - PHILIP K DICK MOVES ON TO THE NEXT ROUND!
Up today, we are pitting two of the stars of Kenneth Branagh's Much Ado About Nothing against each other, and instead of being young, hot, and armed with swords, they're old, grizzled, and armed with guns.
It's JOHN WICK vs THE EQUALIZER.
("Branagh series WHEN???" - me, Marie, making this post)
With John Wick, we'd cover the four Keanu vehicles:
John Wick
John Wick Chapter 2
John Wick Chapter 3 - Parabellum
John Wick Chapter 4
With The Equalizer, we'd cover the three Denzel vehicles:
The Equalizer
The Equalizer 2
The Equalizer 3
So, who will it be - Reeves/Stahelski, or Washington/Fuqua?
Comments
There is nothing new to say about John Wick. The first and 4th movies might be good episodes but the middle two are gonna be a slog. How many times can they have the same conversation about how the rules don’t make sense and Keanu Reeves is amazing? Equalizer switches up supporting cast in every movie and could lead to a ton of fun conversations. Plus, a LOT more plot going on

2025-03-04 02:06:43 +0000 UTCThey have occasionally praised the Equalizers and I think they consider them really solid
Owen Phillips
2025-03-03 17:40:04 +0000 UTCVoting for Equalizer because it’s the shorter series and I don’t care about either of these (not that either has a chance at winning)
Doctor,Doctor
2025-03-03 17:30:33 +0000 UTCThe "Equalizer would be better because they're boring" crowd has a point but I'd counter that with David watching Next Generation. There's honestly no correlation, remember that middle section of Table Top those movies were crazy terrible and we ALL felt it.

Lauren Schultz
2025-03-03 16:40:26 +0000 UTCIncredibly tough decision but ultimately decided on Wick because I'm guessing the crew will say nice things about those movies. I'd just be mad if they watched the Equalizers and bagged on them.

2025-03-03 15:13:23 +0000 UTCVoted john wick with my fingers but branagh with my ❤️
madi
2025-03-03 06:45:32 +0000 UTCUnfortunately Equalizer 3 is very boring and kinda bsd

Good
2025-03-03 03:58:10 +0000 UTC100% but you have to know that to know that and sadly most people won’t know that.
Good
2025-03-03 03:57:25 +0000 UTCBurger report revival?
Robert Young
2025-03-03 03:36:16 +0000 UTCI think Wick will open the door for some fun chats about 'Rules' and world building - not to mention as I said above I'd love to hear some love for Reddick and Mchshane (and Common and Donnie Yen and Halle Berry and Marc Dacoscos and Michael Nyqvist). But yeah, at the end of the day I'm keen for 6 hours talking about how much of a Mensch The Equalizer is
Alexander Annand
2025-03-03 02:14:03 +0000 UTCDude for real, it's gonna be 4 episodes of them watching the movies silently and David going "Talk, guys!" every few seconds. Equalizer would have a lot more to discuss, I'm surprised the vote is so lopsided.
Kyle Heyman
2025-03-03 02:06:44 +0000 UTCThat said - I don't think we've had a chance to deep dive on either Ian McShane or Lance Reddick yet so i'll be happy either way.
Alexander Annand
2025-03-03 01:58:09 +0000 UTCWick so you can get Mantzoukas for his own episode!
Joshua Baldwin
2025-03-03 00:21:24 +0000 UTCI prefer the John Wick franchise but there's no doubt in my mind that Equalizer would make for a better Blank Check series.
Alexander Annand
2025-03-03 00:20:36 +0000 UTCY'all. Equalizer should SWEEEEP.
Harry Mitchell
2025-03-02 23:37:41 +0000 UTCBooooo
Sloane
2025-03-02 22:54:44 +0000 UTCbooooo, give us denzel
zod cham
2025-03-02 22:50:00 +0000 UTCThe Equalizer films
Jordan Fish
2025-03-02 22:32:26 +0000 UTCJohn Wick, more like John WACK
Flappy McGillicuddy-Jones III
2025-03-02 21:43:05 +0000 UTCEqualizer because Wick, Keanu, stunt stuff, practical FX etc get talked about a lot and Denzel Washington doesn't get talked about half enough.
John Dog
2025-03-02 21:29:55 +0000 UTCThe second and third Equalizers are pretty bad, but I think they would make better episodes since they are more distinct than the wick series. That being said, I don’t think either series is going the distance.
Robert Young
2025-03-02 21:19:02 +0000 UTCThis reply to a reply to a comment is not where I should be putting my main feed thoughts, but I'm also not signing up for bluesky just to say this. All I want is for everyone, but particularly Ben, to watch Schitzopolis and tell me their thoughts. Is that too much to ask for?
Owen McIlhattan
2025-03-02 21:14:20 +0000 UTCEqualizer is going to have much better conversations with those movies compared to John Wick, but I do love John Wick. This one is a win-win. But it really should be The Equalizer. But they might cover fuqua on the main feed. So John should win l guess.
Good
2025-03-02 21:10:53 +0000 UTCAgree with Marie!
jahr
2025-03-02 21:03:59 +0000 UTCGetting equalized will make a much more fun mini series than getting wicked
Maricela Gonzalez
2025-03-02 21:03:35 +0000 UTCEqualizer would be more interesting. JW falls off hard after #1.

david herbert
2025-03-02 20:17:57 +0000 UTC"From the world of John Wick" sounds more like the tagline of the movie poster and ad campaign
John W
2025-03-02 20:07:10 +0000 UTCI want at least a half hour spent on debating whether the title of Ballerina is Ballerina or From the World of John Wick: Ballerina and if it’s the latter, is that the worst title ever?
BENJAMIN SHULTZ
2025-03-02 19:49:24 +0000 UTCDoes John Wick mean someone’s talking about The Continental because that is an interesting nothing burger
Michael C
2025-03-02 19:49:14 +0000 UTCMarie you are spillingggg!!!!! the Shakespeare girlies demand Branagh
Haley
2025-03-02 19:42:43 +0000 UTCTruly, Branagh series when?? Also, I kind of want to save the Equalizer films for a Fuqua miniseries? He seems like he’d be an interesting guy to go deep on.
Molly McNeeley
2025-03-02 19:38:31 +0000 UTCGot it, thanks!
Bobby Styles
2025-03-02 19:35:51 +0000 UTCThey’re posting them on Bluesky
Ross Kroeber
2025-03-02 19:31:53 +0000 UTCNow I just want that Much Ado About Nothing! Bring on Sexy Shakespeare.

2025-03-02 19:27:14 +0000 UTCI never watched the Wick movies so this would be a good excuse
Damian Brown
2025-03-02 19:27:11 +0000 UTCThe Equalizer 2 makes The Equalizer 3 look like The Equalizer!
Justice B
2025-03-02 19:26:04 +0000 UTCI’m ready for a Wick-ed good time!
Njord
2025-03-02 19:25:17 +0000 UTCTBF John Wick is also armed with swords.

2025-03-02 19:24:03 +0000 UTCHonestly Marie please push for a Marie's pick with Branagh. God I love that brilliant ham.

Carolyn
2025-03-02 19:20:51 +0000 UTCWas about to make a joke about racist blankies and Black History month - but whatever. I'm going Equalizer.
Dylan Murray
2025-03-02 19:20:19 +0000 UTCCan’t we combine them for one series? The Wickalizer? The Eqwick? I don’t like voting against Denzel even if the second one kinda stinks.
Joe Martin
2025-03-02 19:13:46 +0000 UTCThey say if you listen closely on a quiet night, you can still hear John Wick falling down the stairs outside Sacre Coeur.
Tom Jorgensen
2025-03-02 19:09:38 +0000 UTCWhere do they show the winner of the prior day’s Main Feed voting?
Bobby Styles
2025-03-02 19:09:19 +0000 UTCI would love to be slayed by either of these cute hotties
sheabobay
2025-03-02 19:09:08 +0000 UTCThe last hour of John Wick: Chapter 4 is better than all of The Equalizer films combined.

Holden Martinson
2025-03-02 19:05:55 +0000 UTCRecency Bias is totally swaying me, but I do genuinely think the John Wick movies are a triumph of modern blockbuster filmmaking.

2025-03-02 19:05:47 +0000 UTCI just wanna hear Ben’s reaction to John wick 4. So many insane action set pieces to behold
Jordan
2025-03-02 19:05:29 +0000 UTCI guess it's fine if equalizer doesn't win, makes a full fuqua mini next year a better option.
Eric U
2025-03-02 19:05:24 +0000 UTCThis patreon needs to be equalized! You all need to be equalized!! And there's only one man who can properly equalize at that scale, and it's not Keanu.
Teddy K
2025-03-02 19:04:48 +0000 UTCGreat pull from the Shakespeare they did together.
Russell Barnes
2025-03-02 19:04:23 +0000 UTCThrought it’d go Wick’s way and don’t disagree. Just excited either way 🤩

Colin
2025-03-02 19:04:03 +0000 UTCI never got into the world of John Wick. This would definitely give me a reason to give it another try.
