“It’s murder p*rn”: Keanu Reeves Beating Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger With His Death Count in John Wick Makes Joe Rogan Lose His Mind
For nearly three decades, Keanu Reeves is trying to prove himself as a prominent action star, and his portrayal of John Wick is one of the most iconic action characters.
The character is absolutely relentless when it comes to killing people and after the fourth installment of the movie, the franchise is known for its gory and ruthless fight scenes.
Keanu Reeves as John Wick
In each sequel of the film Wick navigates himself in the dangerous world of assassins to get his way to freedom, and in each sequel the kill count tends to get higher and higher.
Something that has surprised Joe Rogan so much is that he compared Keanu Reeves’ John Wick to the iconic action stars to the 90s action icons’ character and how their kill count is nothing even if they combined the numbers.
Joe Rogan Thinks Keanu Reeves’ John Wick Kills People On An Unnatural Level
As fans of the movie know Keanu Reeves’ character in the movie loves to use his many firearms, where he can be seen using pistols, assault rifles, guns, cars, his bare knuckles, books, and even a pencil, or anything which can aid him to take down his enemies.
Since Wick’s world is full of assassins, it is not surprising that the kill count in each movie is so high, and in the fourth movie, the kill count was considerably high.
As a result, Joe Rogan called Keanu Reeves’ starrer a “murder p**n,” and how he has probably killed more people than some of the most iconic action characters in the history of action genre films, and according to some fans of the franchise Wick’s kill count is 439.
John Wick
During his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, the host had Chad Stahelski as his guest where he was talking about the John Wick movies and how Keanu Reeves learned martial arts in 3 months for his role, and how he has killed more people than Michael Myers, Rambo, and even The Terminator.
“It’s so crazy, I saw a thing online of the amount of people that John Wick has killed compared to like Michael Myers. I think you [Chad Stahelski] beat everybody.” Chad Stahelski interrupts, “we beat Rambo too.” “I think you beat everybody.”
Stahelski felt pride in his story and he believes that in the movie Keanu Reeves has killed more people than he has spoken words.
“But I think we had more deaths than Keanu Reeves spoke words in the movie, for sure. I think. I think 308 words in the movie or something. Something for the guys, the action fans and everybody out there.”
Rogan agrees with Chad Stahelski and calls the film a “murder p**n” and both of them burst into laughter. While the director hopes that the brutal kill was artistic to look at and enjoy its beauty, Rogan appreciates that each kill was so different from the other.
How Many Kills Do John Rambo And T-800 Have in Their Movies
While Keanu Reeves’ John Wick has a kill count of 439, with the help of GeekTyrant stated that Mr. Wick killed 77 people in the first film, the number rose to 128 in John Wick: Chapter 2, the number dropped to only 94 kills in John Wick: Chapter 3- Parabellum, and it is estimated that he killed 140 enemies in the newest sequel, where he kills 1 man per minute.
While this is an impressive stat, how many does Sylvester Stallone’s John Rambo have killed in his movies?
Sylvester Stallone as John Rambo in First Blood
In the first film, Rambo killed only one person, but the number increased to 70 in the second film, however, in Rambo III the kill count dropped to only 38, Rambo IV had the most kills in the entire franchise whereas Stallone killed 110 people, and in the final film had only 45 kills, that brings the total to 264 kills, only 175 kills less than John Wick.
Arnold Schwarzenegger as T-800
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s T-800 has also fewer kill counts in comparison to the Baba Yaga. In the first film, the character had 32 kills, but in the second film, the kill count was only 1, Terminator: Rise of the Machines had only 2 kills, Terminator: Genisys also had 2 kills, Terminator: Dark Fate featured 3 kills, and in the last sequel T-800 did not hurt a fly.
And his kill count was only 40, quite disappointing for the cyborg sent to kill from the future. Even if Stallone and Schwarzenegger’s kill count is combined the number would not equal Wick’s numbers.
