Having Ruby Rose speak only in sign language was a really good choice. Her accent is really jarring (and that's coming from someone with the same accent) and I doubt she'd be able to cover it up well.

The first part of killing the sister also felt too easy for an "impossible target."

I think it was less 'impossible' and more 'an awful idea'. She's a member of the High Table, and should be considered 'untouchable'. No one would normally consider killing someone of her status. Cassian wasn't exactly that present when she was at the party - it seemed like he was mostly kept as a formality. She's safe via status, rather than having Cassian or other security around.

It always amazes me to see an actor who was in a famous movie series nearly 20 years ago come back and be even cooler.

Larry Fishburne has had a career most people can only dream of. Apocalypse Now, Boyz N Tha Hood, Othello, The Matrix, Hannibal. He's never really stopped having great roles. I think you're probably talking about Keanu, but Fishburne rules too.

For a few minutes I thought that she was lady pope AND a member of the High table. Strong illuminati vibes

Yeah I think that's implied. Probably gonna see some sort of "professional courtesy" team-up, given that both he and Wick seem to be on the outs with the established assassin world, to varying degrees.

Maybe Ruby Rose, too.

Yeah there's an illuminati cop that asks John if there was a 'gas leak'. He was in the first, too.

This could easily be an intentional motivation by Unconvincing Russian/Exemplary Grizzled White Actor, Peter Stormare. Just turning over one's belly to anyone, even the Boogeyman, probably makes you chum in the waters of their underworld society. On the other hand, having a crew of guys killed/maimed by John Wick himself may be a mark of merit or accomplishment. Per the script, Laurence Fishburne didnt rise to his position as King of the Outcasts From Demolition Man because of his canny, knowledge, or skill, but because he had been attacked by Wick, survived, and had the scars to prove it

I think this is very true. Having survived an encounter with Wick gives a huge amount of clout in the underworld. Common's character may follow in the footsteps of Fishburne's, actually.

Seriously the best pseudo-Bond theme since Snake Eater

The movie Spy has 'Who Can You Trust' by Ivy Levan and it's 110% a Bond riff. It sounds like how Roger Moore looks.

John Wick 2's music is pretty great, the soundtrack is on Spotify. I didn't realise that Le Castle Vania was involved until I'd looked it up.
