Continuity mistake: At the end of the second film, the the operator lady stamped John's file upon receiving it. This same moment is played again in the third film, however the file already has the stamp on it as she gets it now.
John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019)
1 video
Directed by: Chad Stahelski
Starring: Keanu Reeves, Halle Berry, Ian McShane, Jerome Flynn, Asia Kate Dillon
Revealing mistake: During the escape after the crippling of Berrada, there's a sequence where one of Sofia's dogs gets under her legs and she pets him briefly before launching him to attack one of the bad guys biting him exactly in the crotch. She then shoots him twice in the face putting him out of his misery. Under the person's shirt you can see the squared profile of protective padding. (01:00:00)
Trivia: John's request for "guns...lots of guns" mirrors a line Keanu Reeves has in The Matrix.
Question: How was John expected to kill Winston? It's made clear killing anyone on continental grounds results in death, so why was the adjudicator insisting John kill Winston whilst inside the continental? Wouldn't he technically be excommunicado all over again for breaking the most important rule?

Answer: Winston had broken the rules by allowing John to escape in the first place before trying to kill him. This effectively nullified the Continental's immunity while Winston was in charge do to himself breaking the rules. Therefor, John would not be breaking any further rules by killing him on the Continental grounds as it had been desanctified, and thus John would have been cleaning it to allow it become such once more and clearing his own name.
