A John Wick spinoff still seems like a silly idea to me, but the trailer does look pretty promising. And any excuse to watch Ana De Armas kicking ass for two hours is a good one. 
John Wick Spinoff "Ballerina"

Yeah... I feel like Barbara B. could take some lessons from that Ana sequence in NTTD -- that's how an entire Bond movie should feel: fast, fun, sophisticated, sexy and exhilarating. Something the Craig Bond's have struggled to be with their deadly slow plots.
John Wick is silly.
Yup I've really tired of the "serious and gritty" Bond movies. It was cool the first few times, but now I just want to get back to Bond being fun and sexy again.

Hot Toys better make a 1:6 Ana from this movie and maybe a new Wick.
I got the āCuban Agentā from No Time Die - itās OK at best for a 3rd party 1:6 figure but Ana could use some serious Hot Toys glow up.

You obviously havenāt seen The Grey Man or Ghosted, other action movies that are lackluster except for her.

I have a soft spot for the John Wick films but I'm not sure I'm interested enough in the movies universe to want to watch spin off films.
Yeah it would definitely be cool to pose her and Wick together on the shelf. But does she even have a defined look in this movie? She seems to go through a lot of different outfits in the trailer.
Although that skin-tight red dress was pretty memorable...

I mean they are not wrong, tats are not outsider, edgy, or the visual cue of some extreme life, they are about as common, safe and trendy as can be. Do they "realistically" serve as a short hand to rep Russian organized crime? Does it mater, it's Hollywood fantasy!
And yes Hollywood folk do tend to spew left anti-gun anxiety and rhetoric, yet then glamorize and fetishize it in their films. Is that a problem for the champaign left po$ture? Or really a debate meritable of this particular film and thread, over any other film glut of the same? Not really.
Fan made, yet I do like this poster as somewhat nod to previous:

Also almost everything in films is there for a reason, that includes the tattoos. Iām sure if you actually look into them theyāll have some meaning for the character.
People really will moan about anything these days, sheesh.

Fair enough, I hadn't thought of that myself. That said, tattoos being appropriated by pumpkin spice slurping soccer moms has definitely diluted their street cred, regardless. What a time to be alive.
I don't really care what other people do with their lives and bodies, it doesn't affect me. I'm just here to enjoy a fun action movie with a cool underworld society.

Skinny girl killing thousands of men with a gun iām 100% ok with.
Skinny girl killing thousands of men with just her bare hands, yeah **** that noise lol

Well I do like how they somewhat acknowledge that by saying she is allowed to "play dirty" in order to win. Plus the fact this is a pretty exaggerated, over the top fantasy world where people wear bullet proof men's suits and can survive multiple car hits with no broken bones, so I think it kinda fits the style better than with other films.
Which is exactly what John has to do when he comes up against guys that are physically superior to him.
