The Arnies

On today's show, we’ll be launching our newest Bi-Weekly Retrospective and Review Series! Time for a quick, fun, and violent entry: The John Wick Trilogy.

Show Notes

After a career that's included great comedies, romance films, award-winning dramas, and seminal action films like The Matrix, it was indeed John Wick that broke the mold and put Keanu Reeves back into the A-List star category.

Why is that? What is it about this action/revenge story that feels so new and fresh? What makes it stand out against a tired and sometimes samey genre? And finally what makes it so badass? Listen in as we break it all down!

What is The Arnies?

A podcast by three best friends with nothing better to do! We discuss Movies, TV, Fandom, and everything in between. This a show for anyone. We’re just three friends who decided to turn on a mic for our weekly conversations. We plan to have some laughs, maybe some cries. But mostly just a good time. We hope you’ll listen in!
