CinemaCon in Las Vegas gave press and theater owners the first glimpse of John Wick Chapter 4 footage. They did not allow the public (ME) to see it and I'm making it everybody's problem. A leaked promotional image shows John Wick surrounded by a blossoming branch of a cherry tree so of course I examine the significance of seasons to the John Wick series as well as dive into both Westerna and Eastern literature's relationship to Sakura. I touch on the rumors of Hagakure as a subtitle as well as give an introduction to Hagakure, Bushido, Samurai Code, and its application in storytelling. Plus ballerinas, nunchucks, and the word blaise!

Sakura backing is a traditional song called "Sakura," and the backing for the Hagakure section is a traditional song from the Edo period called Godanno-Shirabe.
