The Continental has many John Wick easter eggs.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary John Wick prequel The Continental has plenty of easter eggs and nods to the movies for viewers to spot during episode 1. The supposed death of John Wick in the finale of Chapter 4 has ended - for now, at least - the main series, so it's a good time to see if the franchise has legs beyond Keanu Reeves' titular assassin.

10 "Guns, Lots Of Guns" When mounting a rescue for Morpheus in the original Matrix, Neo requested "Guns. Lots of guns." This iconic line later made its way into John Wick: Chapter 3, when John requested "lots" of guns when he needed to fight off a High Table siege. The line returns once more at the end of The Continental's first episode, where after narrowly surviving a hit, Winston heads back to Frankie's gunrunner friends and says he needs "Guns.

7 Gun Fu Part of what made the first John Wick feel so fresh was the action, which combined martial arts with gunplay. The sequels refined this style even further, while it also found its way into films like Atomic Blonde and Kate. The opening setpiece of The Continental sees Frankie having to fight off a wave of killers while fleeing with the gold coin press, and he uses Wick's signature, graceful mix of guns and martial arts to do so.

4 "Come Out And Play" Aside from the nods to John Wick, the show also tips its hat to classic movies like Taxi Driver and The Warriors in its depiction of the grimy New York of the '70s. A piece of graffiti seen in the background of one scene reads "Come out and play," which is a line spoken by David Patrick Kelly's Warriors villain.
