The John Wick universe is fantastical with a society of assassins and their system of honour and rules. I’m sure the writers would explain that they have to kill him a certain way, which is probably why they showed the one guy who attacked him early.

I’m more annoyed because I had hoped they would start explaining what this society was, but instead it just got more convoluted. I think that’s to keep the mythos of John Wick alive, or it could just be lazy writing.

I enjoy these movies as dumb, violent escapism, so I don’t mind the plot holes so much.
