The Accountant vs John Wick
This also makes me wonder what would happen in a face off between Jason Bourne and the Accountant.

The one thing we really never got to see was the strength of John Wick's long game. Most of his kills were up close and personal.
Even the scary stories are up close; "I once saw him kill three men with a pencil..."
How about, "He put a bullet right though this guy's eye socket at 1,000 meters during a thunderstorm; a 1,000 fucking meters."

I think if John gets within 100 feet of Christian, he probably wins. But if he has to get that close, I'm not sure he will be able to if Christian is watching for him.

We know Christian doesn't need to get that close, unless John gets better about keeping himself hidden.

I think that one comes down to a coin toss, luck of the draw, who had the better breakfast, did Bourne get laid he night before, etc.

I don't know. My first thought is that Jason Bourne's ability to improvise may give him the edge.

We seem to be forgetting the size advantage Christian has. And way more muscle than Wick. So hand to hand, well, I'd bet on the big guy. He is way more economical in his bare hands style. Fewer strikes but more effective. And what's with Wick's nine press checks after he reloads anything?

The bigger they are, the harder they fall.

Yes, but only if the crystal is made out of kryptonite.

All John Wick would have to do is throw a puzzle at Christian with one missing piece to get the upper hand.

Only the green bladed ones with the Kryptonite Kyber crystals. Plus Superman doesn't do well against magic, so Jedi/Sith have that going for them with their "hokey religion".

Neither. I think they would be buddies. Based on Christian's preps I think he would be keen on earning a coin and John is not interested in getting back into the game unless they kill his dog or blow up his house.

MightyMouse would win. he would crawl up Superman's ass and punch the shit out of him from the inside. In cartoon form, that is.

I don't know...if Wolff thinks Wick has the missing piece, Wick is not going to be having a good time.

Hmm..........The movie could open up with Christian driving down the road with his Airstream and he sees a guy walking on the shoulder with a dog in the rain....... Cool

IN JW1 wick gets a rifle at the warehouse from one of the snipers and takes out the guy playing games on the sofa from quite a distance as well as several others in the protection group. Great head shot too on the guy playing the computer game.
