Just saw John Wick and it was pretty awesome. I like the first one better but #2 kicks ass.
On to the topic. When John checks into the Continental in Rome he goes to the the "bar" and says he'd "like a tasting" I notice the "bartender" is wearing a Nazi Anti-Partisan Guerrilla Warfare Badge. Wiki link to said badge I recognize it because I have one. My late Father was a collector. I wonder what the significance is? Why they used it? And how long before someone gets bent out of shape and calls for a boycott of the film because of this evil Nazi badge. It is a pretty badass, evil looking piece.

Interesting. Was there anything on the necklace that pointed in that direction as well?

Either the bartender is a really bad collector, or we have an origin of the underworld story.

I don't read the novels behind movies but chances are another movie/storyline is based on it. Most interesting. There are no novels. The movie is an original story. |

Click To View Spoiler my thoughts as well. I didnt get it until I came home to watch his three gun. Though I wish he would have just picked those guns from the "gunstore attendant" then having the guy pick them out for him in a room full of exotic guns as if they were his best choices. I think the stargate team had more appropriate weapons for john wicks needs. 
I wonder how much salient arms paid to be in the movie? I was expecting more vaporware guns to show up like the cyresix with a salvo 12. But at least he didnt use a keltec KSG. |

I noticed that when I saw the move last night, as well. Looked like the swastika was removed, but it was definitely an anti partisan badge. Wonder what the story is behind it. Overall I really enjoyed the movie.

Good eye OP and thanks for sharing your find. Really interesting. If someone gets butthurt, they need to go back to the attic and write a book about it.

I thought the badge had a skull not the swastika (from some of the opening credit scenes with a similar 'badge' spinning)....might be wrong...something to look for if I go back, or when I get the video.
