Agent 47 has killed John Wicks dog while carrying out a contract. Given 47 has already fled the scene, who would win?

Battle

47 was in Guatemala, carrying out a contract against a global drug kingpin. Thinking the dog was simply a stray, he detonated the explosives rigged throughout the house, killing the drug kingpin and his companions. John watched in horror as his dog ran to the house just before it was blown up.

47 fled the scene and is now back at the ICA safe house. He has been informed that the dog caught in the crossfire was owned by none other than John Wick by Diana, who swallowed a cyanide pill promptly after delivering the message.b

Who would win this scenario?

Love John Wick, but there are many times he would've been killed if not for dumb luck or some plot device. 47 claps him

u/itasic avatar

47 is composed of the deadliest men ever, trained rigourously in a Romanian facility with no parents and no emotion

John Wick is Keanu Reeves who lost his dog

Stupid, sure, but I thought it was just funny to see 2 iconic characters most people find cool fight, no matter how stupidly OP 47 is

True. If this was in a movie 47 would have already lost the moment the dog died.

u/shinshikaizer avatar

If this was a movie, the dog would have never died because 47 would have made the target die by accident.

47 making it look like the target killed the dog so John gets him

The most egregious of this was in the third movie where he was fighting the two ninjas at the end. They literally had him dead to rights, but allowed him to get up because they were fans of him. Literally, could have ended him right there lol, but there are plenty more examples too in the series.

u/Corey307 avatar

In fairness John Wick had gone through absolute hell to get to that point and the ninjas wanted to have a honorable fight not an easy win. Yes, it’s crazy but a lot of the assassins have a code, and a respect for one another. Like how John chose not to kill Cassian. 

I love that fight and i like that in return he didn't kill them either. It made sense honestly as they didn't want a cheap easy win against they're hero they wanted an actual fight.

u/ForceEdge47 avatar

Yeah I kind of liked the fact that they put honor over getting the actual kill. Made them feel more like martial artists instead of just the two mooks he has to go through before the final boss lol.

I agree, don't get me wrong, I love the entire series, but John often has conveniences like that protecting him lol.

Those actors were from the Raid series too, so I was also glad he didn't kill them either because I loved them in those movies.

Funny thing that's my one nitpicky thing about the fight is the fact these guys are from The Raid and because of that i've seen what these guys can really do, i totally get why they had to but you could really tell as a Raid fan how toned down and held back they were. It was really cool they were in the film though and i always love it when anyone from The Raid shows up in something and gets to fight.

Wick is stupidly lucky and experienced enough that I think he'd survive any ambushes/poisonings 47 would be able to throw at him 9/10 times, and from there Wick takes the straight fight since 47 can never get near Wick's kill count without cheesing the dumb AI.

I give it to Wick 7/10. . .

The first time 47 plays this mission. :P

u/PM_ME_UR_GOOD_DOGGOS avatar

Hard agree. But how many playthroughs until 47 can get SASO in under 30 seconds?

u/axeteam avatar

John Wick also doesn't have a homing spinning briefcase.

u/ACWhi avatar

So I actually think John Wick has better feats in a straight up fight, especially in 4, although 47 is still insane in a hand to hand or gunfight. Just not ‘kill literally several hundred guys over a weekend in a series of gunfights where he is generally surrounded by dozens and dozens of men with superior firepower’ good.

But 47 seems much better at the actual assassination side of things.

In a stand up gunfight, Wick is practically invincible. But there are multiple times in the series someone gets the drop on Wick knowing that it’s suicide to charge him headlong, and only dumb luck saves John.

47 would assess Wick, realize it’s too risky to take him on fairly, and win by fighting unfairly.

u/shinshikaizer avatar

Also in Wick's favor is his body armor; since Blood Money, 47 hasn't utilized personal body armor as personal equipment from his stash and safehouse.

u/ACWhi avatar

He also has greater durability feats. He regularly gets run over, then just gets up and keeps fighting, and he’s survived being shot and then thrown off like a seven story building.

More replies

how does john wick have better feats ? he struggled one on one against most of his real enemies.

u/ACWhi avatar

In straight up fights he has better feats. He can be surrounded and take on like 50 guys with machine guns at once armed with just a pistol, and survive getting shot repeatedly, run over repeatedly, and kicked off like a seven story building.

In John Wick 4 he kills like 150 guys and almost half of them are in one sequence near the end.

In John Wick 4 he became a legit superhuman if he wasn’t already.

Which is why Wick wins in an open gunfight.

But Agent 47 could still win by just being a better sneaky bastard/more resourceful than Wick.

Edited

"He can be surrounded and take on like 50 guys with machine guns at once armed"

that is not better feats. accuracy itself and constantly shooting is not a feat in strength , speed, reaction or durability or training.

human with total accuracy and luck can kill 10.000 gunmen around him just like john wick (without getting shot like in head ) and can still be worse than agent 47 or someone at that level. he just repeatedly shot people that were coming.

important question is if john wick showed superhuman level of speed , strength or intelligence ... does he have better strength, speed and intelligence feats than agent 47 ?

"In John Wick 4 he kills like 150 guys and almost half of them are in one sequence near the end"

ok but that is just perfect accuracy + luck .john wick struggled many times one on one .he barely defeated cassian or caine in minute. agent 47 killed 3 of his equals, one in 3 seconds.

agent 47 also seems much better in accuracy than john wick. he kicked a gun and forced its bullet to hit his handcuff chain.

.

"In John Wick 4 he became a legit superhuman if he wasn’t already."

but agent 47 is already superhuman.

Wick would need to find 47 first. He is a master of disguise, and then he will sneak up on Wick who will be forever remembered as the guy who got killed with a target tracking briefcase by a guy disguised as a birthday clown.

That's what he wants you to think. Tell me, why should he try to assassinate, while being filmed? If he wants to assassinate someone he does this while not being filmed. My proof is that there is no proof.

u/shinshikaizer avatar
Edited

John Wick doesn't know he's in a movie.

The one time he tries to actually assassinate somebody, he got caught on his way out; in fact, he's so (rightly) sure he'll get caught on his way out that he stashes weapons along his exit route.

That's what he wants you to think. You fell right into his trap.

John Wick has insane feats of durability and strength.

And that would be helpful if 47 wasn't going to

  1. Poison him

  2. Electrocute him

  3. Blow him up in a gas explosion

And that's just a few of the methods he could use in John's own house.

If 47 is already gone then Wick isn’t finding him unless 47 wants him to. And in that situation 47 has every advantage. 47 isn’t going to get into a shootout or fist fight with Wick, he’d just as happily poison his coffee or shoot him with a rifle from a mile away.

Bourne vs Wick is more in par. 47 blows his head off. Or posions him dressed as a French maid.

Edited

What are these downvotes 😂 you all not understand feats?

I think the spectrum of movie dudes in this category goes something like:

Equalizer > Wick > Bourne

(Wick and Bourne is dependent on if it ends up in CQC - If Bourne can get close and get it to hand v hand combat only then he will win 8/10 times, but if Wick stays far enough away and uses a pistol then Bourne is absolutely screwed.)

Equalizer claps them both even in a 2v1.

Not the Queen Latifah one.

Wtf…

u/mrhenhen115 avatar

Yeah, I mean the end of equalizer 2,for example. Ain't no way wick or Bourne are pulling that off as easily as Robert did.

But then 47, being a video game character, is just levels above them all

Wick can potentially beat 47 in a fight. The problem is that 47 is ten times smarter and more strategic than anyone Wick usually goes up against, so finding 47 and getting the drop on him would be extremely difficult. 47 literally lives for his work.

P.S. This is why I'm not a fan of any of the Hitman films. They turn 47 into an action hero. That's not who he is. He doesn't get into random sword fights or shootouts. At least not canonically. He kills you before you know he's there. He's a chess master.

Canonically, 47 is so good at his job his existence is just rumors and speculation.

My 47 is only rumours and speculation because there are no witnesses left and no camera footage.

Isn't 47 like enhanced in some way so he's stronger than a normal dude? Wick is decent at hand to hand but he's not as good as mccall from equalizer and imo 47 would be too strong for him

John Wick is awesome, but he gets hit by a car like twice in each movie, low diff for 47.

True, but what if 47 doesn't have a car 🤯

u/Front_Flounder3555 avatar

I just meant john's reaction speed isn't that great. He's also been thrown through 14 windows and shot 13 times. I don't know a lot about 47, but he gets a lot of hype as a master assassin. I feel like 47 can solo.

u/itasic avatar

Yeah but what if 47 has no windows to defenestrate Wick with

u/Front_Flounder3555 avatar
  1. I love that you just knew the word defenestrate.

  2. John has also been thrown to the ground as many times as he's been shot. As long as 47 can get close enough, easy w.

Ah, but consider this: 47 would probably die when hit with a car.

u/Front_Flounder3555 avatar

Maybe, but please consider the following: some dude calculated 47's max running speed to be around 14.4 feet per second, meaning he'd (probably) be able to leap out of the car's way in about a third of a second (as opposed to just standing there like a goddamned bowling pin).

Not a goddamn fucking chance if his run speed is 14.4 feet per second, that’s atrocious. 

 For reference, that’s about 4.4 m/s. Which means at a running start, he can finish a 100m sprint in a bit under 23 seconds. 

High schoolers in track run twice that fast

u/shinshikaizer avatar

I think that speed was calculated from him doing a 10 mile run.

There is no fight, John wick buries his dog that tragically died in an accident where unfortunately the dog lay down in a puddle in the upstairs bathroom that just happened to have a damaged car battery in it.

Pretty sure 47 could just apologize since the dog wasn't the target and Wick understands how the assasination business goes.

Agent 47 in a city would never be found. Sure, John Wick may find the occasion person in their underwear stored in a trash bin or sewer manhole, but 47 would be 4 disguises ahead of him. He'll never see it coming, he'd buy a donut and it'll pull a gun on him and shoot him in the head.

u/trek570 avatar

Typically John’s first step in taking revenge is seeking information. In every movie he relies heavily on intel provided by his allies to know where to begin his rampages. John is smart but he’s not really a detective.

This is 47, nobody knows who he is or what he looks like, he doesn’t have any friends or coworkers, he doesn’t have any motives. John Wick simply would never find 47.

Honestly, John would probably go after that random kingpin’s surviving associates as his revenge. They had it coming anyway.

47, from a safe distance, observes John Wick murder his way through Guatemala’s underworld and really doesn’t need to get involved further. Mission accomplished, go home.

u/Virus-Party avatar

u/ClockworkDinosaurs avatar

John Wick loves his dog, don’t get me wrong. But I’m pretty sure he was mad someone purposely killed his dog. He was pretty rationale and would recognize that a fellow professional may have accidental collateral damage.

47 is just as if not more superhuman and competent as hell at disguising himself/getting away from people, and just a better killer. Wick will never find 47 unless he wants to be found, and even if he gets found hed still beat John.

To be fair 47 VS Wick could potentially be turned into a movie (47 movies are ass anyway) so he could survive due to plot armour

u/shinshikaizer avatar
Edited

(47 movies are ass anyway)

Only because FOX (who owns the film rights to the franchise) has no understanding of the franchise.

FOX keeps trying to turn it into an action movie franchise, when it should be a thriller, possibly a horror movie. Just imagine a movie shot found footage style with surveillance cameras and such, and you know who the target is but not how they're going to die or when 47 is going to show up, and you get to watch the events of the movie unfold through the found footage, and you have to pay attention or you'll miss 47 passing through in disguise. Or, a movie that's basically a slasher flick, except it's 47 and you basically almost never see him at all except for in the very briefest of flashes.

47 without Diana would be gimped, but 47 doesn't need Diana for actual field work and to know he is being hunted.

Even if John Wick were to learn 47 killed his dog, Wick is dead.

u/Raze321 avatar

Admittedly I didnt pay much attention to the story, but isnt 47 without Diana for most (all?) Of Hitman 3?

u/shinshikaizer avatar

47 pretty much has zero access to Diana in Absolution, for story reasons.

u/Raze321 avatar

Ah, maybe my wires were crossed

u/shinshikaizer avatar

I mean, 47 also has limited access to Diana in Hitman III (she acts as handler only for the first 2 missions), but he also has a different handler for the following missions. He does, however, operate with no handler for the final two missions of Hitman III, but the last one is basically just a single long train.
