4K ULTRA HD / BLU-RAY / DVD / DIGITAL SPECIAL FEATURES 

  • Chad and Keanu: Through Wick and Thin: Chad Stahelski and Keanu Reeves have a partnership that stretches all the way back to the first Matrix film. In this retrospective piece, we trace their remarkable friendship and decades-long collaboration.
  • Train Like a Killer: Weapons Master Robert “Rock” Galotti and Keanu Reeves reveal the rigorous training that Keanu had to endure to make John Wick: Chapter 4 a reality – from gunplay, to jiu jitsu, to some hard-hitting stunt work.
  • Making A Killing: In John Wick, sets are not merely the backdrop for each scene – they are integral parts of the action, with Wick often using whatever is on hand to take the fight to his enemies. Here we explore the craft at play in designing the sets of John Wick: Chapter 4 and the ways set design and action choreography go hand in hand in this legendary series.
  • The Psychology of a Killer: Chad Stahelski explores the psychology of John Wick, a character who, despite four films, is still a mystery in many ways. We unpack the complicated code of ethics that Wick lives by, and the ironic bonds he shares with the men trying to kill him.
  • The Blind Leading the Fight: John Wick: Chapter 4witnesses the arrival of Caine, a blind killer played by legendary actor and martial artist Donnie Yen. With a style not seen since The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi, Caine shows that a killer’s greatest instincts come not from his eyes, but from his mind. Here we uncover Yen’s journey on this film, exploring his prep for the role, his insight into the character, and his intense training regimen to portray this unlikely killer.
  • Suit Up / Shoot Up: Costume Designer Paco Delgado uncovers the cooler-than-cool suits worn by the assassins of John Wick that feature bulletproof lining – just what every killer needs for a night out on the town. We also explore the more refined looks of the Marquis and the Old West-inspired garb of the Tracker.
  • Packing a Punch: Pulling off a kill takes a village. Get a behind-the-scenes look at the way Team Wick incorporates special effects into the practical stunts and locations of the film.
  • One Killer Shot: John Wick: Chapter 4 features one of the boldest single-take shots ever attempted in action filmmaking. Fight Choreographers Jeremy Marinas and Laurent Demianoff team up with Stunt Coordinator Scott Rogers to dive into the creative challenges that went into planning this one-shot sequence that sees John Wick take on Paris’s deadliest killers.
  • Killing at the Speed of Traffic: Take a look at a nonstop action sequence featuring John Wick’s car-fu at the Arc de Triomphe! The driving force of this piece will be a look at the effects achieved at the iconic location, and sets the stakes of every assassin in Paris descending on Wick.
  • A Shot in the Dark: The John Wick series takes audiences into a world that is both thematically and visually dark. For film crews, that meant enduring hundreds of night shoots, with crews switching to a virtually nocturnal mode of life for long stretches of production. Here we explore the tenacious work of cast and crew members who tough it out night after night in pursuit of Wick’s dark, iconic aesthetic. Along the way, we explore some of the most iconic night scenes in the film, culminating with Wick’s brutal staircase fight.
  • In Honor of the Dead: In creating John Wick: Chapter 4, Chad Stahelski drew on references from some of the greatest films ever made. Uncover the cinematic homages depicted in the film, from David Lean to John Woo, to the samurai epics of post-war Japan.

London After Midnight (1927) Public Domain, But Lost Silent Film. TCM Reconstruction Version

 

In January of 2023 Tod Browning’s lost and sought after silent film London After Midnight went into the public domain. Of course the film is lost and the closest thing we  to it is the Turner Classic Movies reconstruction, which despite London After Midnight being in the public domain there is a good chance that the reconstruction belongs to Warner Brothers Discovery and if it does please inform me right away and I will remove it from the streaming platform Rumble.com, where I put it exclusively, but with no intentions of monetizing the streaming film. I can be reached at GenreOnline@gmail.com. My name is Mark Rivera. In the description of the notes regarding it’s public domain status I placed all of the information with referring links on it, but ultimately I had nothing to do with the making of the film nor should anyone infer or imply i posted this with their endorsement and the endorsements of their descendants who were involved with the actual making of London After Midnight, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Warner Brothers Discovery and Turner Classic Movies. Thank you. One has to have an account and password with Rumble in order to stream  this film. It is free to join and in no way, shape or form does it cost anything to stream on Rumble. I downloaded the copy legally with words that it was free to watch, download and share from the Internet Archive. All of the information related to this is within the description at Rumble.com on the GenreOnline channel therein. If you have or are willing to sign up for a free streaming account on Rumble to view London After Midnight, please click on the photo below. Thank you.

You can stream The Man Who Saved The World (1982) AKA Turkish Star Wars for free now at the GenreOnline Rumble channel. The YouTube companion channel is still up too, but certain things I post in the multimedia part of this website/blog will be exclusive to Rumble just as some content is only on YouTube and some I share across both platorms. Please note you must have a rumble account, which is free, in order to view this video on the World Wide Web or through the Rumble app available at the App Store for iOS devices and I am guessing Google Play for Android. I hope you all enjoy and thank you.
