    Samuel L Jackson reportedly wants to join John Wick 3



    Samuel L. Jackson has had no shortage of hits over his long and storied career. In the ’90s, films like Pulp Fiction, Jurassic Park, and Die Hard with a Vengeance were highlights of his career. Once the 2000s rolled around he was part of the Star Wars universe and by the end of the decade he was laying the foundation for The Avengers. His star power has also seen him explore more unique roles like Django Unchained and Kingsman: The Secret Service.

    Throughout all of these projects and more, Jackson has put himself alongside some of the top talent in the industry. With Hollywood currently experiencing a heightened production of franchises, it should be no surprise that he has more new adventures in mind, specifically John Wick 3.

    Reporter Simon Thompson revealed on the latest episode of Meet the Movie Press that this is the next franchise the actor has his eyes on. While there is no direct quote from Jackson on the matter, here is how Thompson described his recent interaction with the star when he asked him about a potential Nick Fury solo movie.

    He actually was less interested in that than he was in an idea he floated with me, and he’s floated it with me twice now. He wants to do, over a Nick Fury movie, John Wick 3 with Laurence Fishburne and Keanu Reeves. He absolutely loves the John Wick movies. He wants in. He doesn’t want in, he wants in with a capital IN. Seriously, I think he will do whatever he needs to do to get in on John Wick 3.

    Nah the story wasn't as good as the first one. Still solid tho.

    The action was just as good, but they could have did that tombs shoot out scene better as far as lighting goes. I thought I was watching a bootleg movie, I could barely see ? .

    Are u serious? The first movie was about an ex hitman who lost his wife and her last gift to him was a dog who was killed and he goes after who was responsible. The second movie has much more thorough story not to mention better actions sequences. John gets his house destroyed because he refuses to accept a hit from a man he owes from the past. He decided to accept the mark which turns out to be the man's sister. Not only that the man decides to betray john and puts out a hit contract on John's head. Kind of like the first one except these assassins are incognito. The action sequences that included using a pencil and his battles with Common's characters surpass the action sequences in the first film. John in fact is more vulnerable. Not to mention a much better ending than the first film. Explain why you feel the first was superior
    To also backup my claim the first film made 88 million with a 85% rating. The second film made 171 million with a 89% rating.

    My only problem with 2 is that it quickly devolved into "takedown/headshot/repeat" too much for it's own good but it was still hot fire.
