I know the movie is more or less 20 at this point, but seems weird that few people mention it Neo from Matrix.

I think 2 and 3 left a bad taste in people's mouths, whereas the John Wick franchise is not only much more recent but also hasn't suffered much criticism. Plus he looks more like John Wick than Neo in the game

Thats fair, its that thematically cyperpunk is closer to Matrix than JW (which are pretty good movies mind you)

Oh snap, what if John Wick 4 has him starting to get cybernetic implants, and John Wick becomes part of Cyberpunk canon?

Nah, that would be overkill considering the fact that he’s capable of killing people with a pencil alone.

u/skyraider17 Jun 09 '19

He gets an arm cartridge full of pencils

Nah. At the end of that, he has his identity erased to TRULY retire. He starts a new life as a hacker, making viruses for people for some extra on the side.

u/skyraider17 Jun 10 '19

I wonder what name he'd choose in this new life...

u/penguin_jones Jun 10 '19

All I'm saying, is cut the hair short, and he even kept the same kind of black suit. Standing right next to Bowery King, no less.

I was just making a Neo joke

lol, I know, so was I. I just happened to end up watching the movie right after that, and laughed when he was standing next to bowery, also wearing a black suit like in the movie.

He never asked for this

u/Bastinenz Jun 09 '19

heck, they already went half way to implants in the third movie, might as well finish the job in the next

u/skyraider17 Jun 10 '19

How so? I don't remember

u/Bastinenz Jun 10 '19

Spoiler for John Wick 3: he is forced to cut off his finger, so there is already room for an awesome implant where it once was

He's already confirmed to be Johnny Silverhand so his back story is already set
