John Wick is riding a horse and I’m all about this life

He’s back, in horse form.

The John Wick series is objectively the best thing to happen to action movies since Die Hard, and this week we got a sneak peak at the set of John Wick 3 — HE’S ON A HORSE!

This video has me thinking: What if we Wick-ified the Olympics. Hear me out: Equestrian could use a jolt of excitement to bring in those TV dollars. Don’t argue with me, I’m a cricket fan — so that makes me an expert in boring sports.

Now, imagine for a second that you have regular people doing equestrian stunts. Then after 30 seconds John Wick gets released into the stadium on a horse with a paintball gun. You have to complete the course, at which point your deductions are totaled WITH a point lost for each time you’ve been hit with a paintball by John Wick.

I don’t care that he’s a fictional character. He’s real to me dammit.
