    The thing on the window at the beginning is what rear view mirrors attach to in older vehicles. It would have flew off during the t-bone so they probably took it off for continuity, or they removed it to not block the shot through the window.

    So Alex, to clarify, being an excommunicado in that universe means that he's like a wanted criminal among all those criminals, so nobody will be able to help him when that one hour passes (it was like the biggest thing Winston could do for him), or they'll be also breaking the Continental rules. Also, that contract on him still remains, and because he's neither gonna get help from anyone nor get a shelter in Continental, he's "free money" for everyone

    I think you missed the part at the end where Winston told John that D’antoni’s contract had doubled & gone international. So not only can he not get any help or respite from the Continental, since he’s excommunicado, there’s an international 14 million dollar hit out for him. That’s what Winston was giving him the ‘one hour’ for.

    "he doesn't remember but we met MANY years ago" - Bowery King, because they also met in the Matrix! Another fun fact, when anyone says "oh" on the phone when dealing with John Wick it's a call back to the Matrix when Neo says "Whoa" after entering the Matrix. Also, notice that no civilians are ever killed in these movies, they did it on purpose so it keeps the two worlds separate so you don't have to worry about them getting arrested or caught because it's completely separate. When I got to the part where you mentioned them needing 200 people to take him out or just leave him alone, I'm glad you didn't know what was about to happen in this movie. Lot more than 200 people!

    Because of the nature of the Camerawork, very few cuts, tracking shots, his face being in frame quite a bit etc., 99% of the gunplay was done by Keanu himself. As for the stunts, as long as it wasn't too dangerous Keanu did it. He wanted to do it all but was apparently pushed back by the studio and director due to insurance reasons. But he did as much as he could possibly do himself.

Or seek assistance from any one connected after 1 hour. He has an open contract on him that starts in 1 hour. And he has no safe place to go now. And all assassins all over the world are aware of it. I'd say that was pretty darn exciting to end this movie and start the next movie with.

    The John Wick series is not only a fresh spin on action movies (which has been repeated to hell and back) but it has a new fresh story. JW is a very deeply interwoven story with so many layers. John was forced back in the first one and fought for his wife's memory. In the second, he fought because he fought for Helen. In the third movie, he fights because he killed someone on Continental property, which is sacred because the High Table protected it. That's why you can't conduct assassin business there.
    It's an extremely well-written story and fun fact, Chad Stahelski is not only Keanu's stunt double from the Matrix but JW is also his first director job. It's extremely rare for a first-timr director to make a giant success their first time out, but he did it. Next spring, John Wick Chapter 4 comes out. LET'S FUCKING GOOOO!
