DTVC Extra 24, The John Wick franchise, "John Wick," and "John Wick: Chapter 2"

"DTVC Extra" are shorter solo episodes that I'll be posting on some weeks in addition to the main podcast. In this episode we're starting our look at the John Wick franchise. With part 1, I talk about where this ranks in my top action films of the 2010s, and get into what I liked and didn't like. Also, I touch on the strong imagery of a dog being killed in a film. For part 2, I look at the shift toward mainstream this film makes, ever so slightly. I also make the case for having dogs in movies just to be dogs, not saving the day or having super powers.
