The Final Stop of the John Wick Road Trip!

Lionsgate has produced the John Wick Road Trip to promote John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum for its Blu Ray and home video release on September 10th!  Review for it here: http://geektruth.blogspot.com/2019/05/john-wick-chapter-3-parabellum-review.html.  It began on September 12th and continued across the country at Best Buy stores.  There was a large trailer that pulled up to the Best Buy in Los Angeles on September 26th!  Temporary tents and crowd control barriers were set up in the parking lot.  Fans queued up and passed some prop and costume displays.  There was large thin displays which reminded me of the bodies drained of blood in Blade 2 (2002).  The costume of Halle Berry’s character, Sofia, was displayed from John Wick 3.  On the other case was props like John Wick’s criminal record, John Wick's passports, The Continental blue prints, and the other side had John Wick’s New York Continental Fight Costume with Tactical Belt.

Under the tent were several display cases featuring the High Table Currency Coins and Blood Oath Medallion from John Wick Chapter 2 (2017).  Also the High Table Operator Headset, the Excommunicado Stamp and Stamp Pad, and the Russian Stash Book from John Wick 3.   There were two photo ops in the trailer.  The photo op was a green screen with another prop from John Wick 3, the Horse Fight 2013 Zero DSR Motorcycle.  You can hop on the cycle and renact the scene where John Wick takes on motorcycle ninjas!  The attendants tell you the fight sequence, but I would have liked to see the scene on a screen to remember what was going on.  I found the attendants were helpful in answering questions and explaining the displays.  The video was sent to your phone which made for an easy download.  Next, you can take a pic next to the black 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 used in John Wick (2014) and John Wick 2.  Finally, there were t-shirts given out to the first 100 fans and a poster.  A fun experience which should carry the hype to May 21, 2021 for John Wick Chapter 4!
