    Keanu Reeves Confirms the Official `John Wick 3' Title

    Keanu Reeves Confirms the Official `John Wick 3' Title
    John Wick is going to war. If you saw how John Wick: Chapter 2 ended, you probably already knew that, but the official title for John Wick 3 wants you to
    know for sure. Speaking with the folks at ComingSoon, Keanu Reeves confirmed that the upcoming sequel is called John Wick 3: Parabellum. So what does Parabellum refer to? Reeves told the outlet that the subtitle means "Prepare for war." He explained, " It's part of that famous sentence, 'Si vis pacem, para bellum,' which translates as, 'If you want peace, prepare for war.'" That sounds about right.

    NOTE: I thought parabellum was a type of semi-automatic pistol.

    I get that. I've been around long before google existed and we called the German Lugar a parabellum pistol, but it was really the cartridge that gve it the name. Now if you make two words out of it, (as in para bellum) it has something to do with peace and war.

    ok...

    i think a lot of us are in that group ;)

    and we called the German Lugar a parabellum pistol, but it was really
    the cartridge that gve it the name.

    that was my understanding...

    i thought i said that? it was in the original post and i didn't see any need in
    quoting all of it... especially when i was confirming your NOTE :)

    para bellum: latin - "Prepare for War"

    Maybe you did, but my message base purge took care of that.

    para bellum: latin - "Prepare for War"

    My understanding of the phrase is "If you want peace, prepare for war."

    no, that's the whole latin phrase, "Si vis pacem, para bellum"... "prepare for war" is only the last part, "para bellum" (with the space) ;)

    Sage advice. Putting me on skiis would be akin to putting me on ice skates.
