For an actor whose range and style can best be described as subtle, Keanu Reeves has had his fair share of iconic lines. From "Guns, lots of guns" to "Excellent!", the 59-year-old movie star's impact on pop culture is indelible.

The John Wick franchise has contributed to this esteemed list as well, as Reeves' terse delivery of the word "Yeah" has been a source of joy and amusement for many movie lovers. 

However, this is not the only one-syllable line of dialogue that stands out in the films, as many characters in the first John Wick such as Viggo and Aurelio would utter the word "Oh" once they received terrifying news.

The darkly comical line of dialogue was included as a reference to Reeves' famous "Whoa" from the first Matrix movie.
