It also asks creators to have “at least one conversation” during pre-production about narrative alternatives to firearm use. It doesn’t call for an outright ban on guns on screen.

So John Wick unloads his still smoking gun after he uses it to mow down several hundred people. As he puts it in his gun safe, while retrieving another gun more suited to the next batch of folks he intends to take revenge upon, an innocent child asks him if a knife would have done a better job and John Wick replies that it would not have.



Standards are met.
