welcome everyone Adam the woo here happy
0:03
Sunday coming to you from underneath
0:05
this tree in this empty parking lot even
0:09
though this parking lot is empty it is
0:10
filled with many memories many film
0:13
memories that I am about to share with
0:15
you as well as Tyler Evans Rock
0:18
journalist my roommate which you have
0:20
even appeared in a vlog of mine recently
0:22
it's been a while been a little yeah a
0:24
month or two exactly we are freshly
0:27
returned from Monster paloa yesterday to
0:30
me you our friend Brian Buckley and
0:32
Justin card visited there you got this
0:34
t-shirt there did yeah it's pretty cool
0:36
you also Met George Romero but this Vlog
0:39
is not about George Romero this Vlog is
0:41
about someone else in the movie industry
0:44
a man by the name of Kevin Smith Kevin
0:46
Patrick Smith who created a sequel the
0:50
followup if you will there's a child
0:53
crying as they walked by who was
0:54
obviously not a fan of Kevin Smith Kevin
0:57
Smith of course was an independent film
1:00
director that went on to notoriety by
1:03
creating the film clerks filmed in New
1:05
Jersey while the sequel was actually
1:08
filmed right here
1:17
SH now an empty somewhat empty parking
1:17
lot if you will it's my second channel
1:20
daily blog channel it's the daily woo
1:23
what was the name of this establishment
1:27
when it actually still existed and then
1:29
when it turned turned from what it was
1:31
into what it was called originally if
1:33
memory serves this was a Burger King and
1:35
they changed it into a movies movies
1:37
Kevin Smith fans will know is a
1:39
fictional drive-through fast food
1:41
restaurant used in the as universe
1:44
theuniverse and what exactly is the es
1:47
universe is the layman terms usq is the
1:50
production company so he created his own
1:52
Universe Kevin Smith that house the
1:54
films clerks Mor rats Chasing Amy Dogma
1:57
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and
1:59
Clerks
2:00
and in your opinion one of the best
2:02
Kevin Smith movies is Clerk's 2 you were
2:04
telling me that is one of your fan
2:06
favorites I think it's second only to
2:08
clerics of Kevin Smith so this is kind
2:09
of hollowed ground if you will for you
2:13
you've been here before but you didn't
2:15
document it you didn't documented with
2:16
photos or video so we are returning to
2:19
the seene scene if not the scene the
2:22
scene of your not crime perhaps not a
2:26
crime in any way but there were crimes
2:29
committed here in the movie where
2:31
they're not in the film what kind of
2:33
crimes happen there was a little bit of
2:34
dealing of Narcotics if narcotic dealing
2:37
in fact you were telling me that right
2:39
over in this area the two gentlemen who
2:42
were actually approaching Jay and S Bob
2:45
from right here would have walked in the
2:46
same spot we were and Jay and Silent Bob
2:48
would have been standing right here
2:49
against the wall was the area first
2:51
customers in a long time after going
2:53
straight so like they got to look tough
2:56
and then the guy you know says what he
2:57
wants and Jay does his whole rep the uh
3:00
15 bucks little man put that stuff in my
3:03
hand if that money doesn't show then owe
3:05
me ow me oh my Jung love yeah you
3:08
remember very good at Happ it right here
3:11
as well as the part which is not really
3:13
familyfriendly in any way but I believe
3:16
the male lead character came out of the
3:18
door with another female ran over here
3:21
and of course Jason Muse thees
3:26
characteres the Goodbye Horses happened
3:28
right in here and then of course he was
3:30
kind of halfway disrobed he was not
3:32
wearing any pants or a T-shirt and he
3:34
had some sort of did he have like a some
3:36
sort of like a jacket on that he had
3:38
wide open and that happened right in
3:41
this exact area and you can actually see
3:43
the parking lot you can actually see
3:45
where this little concrete area that
3:47
went into the front of the old Burger
3:49
King that eventually became movies how
3:51
do you actually spell movies m o o b y
3:54
apostrophe s and there is no real fast
3:57
fast food chain in the real world by the
4:00
name of movie amazing they thought about
4:02
starting one in Jersey for a little
4:03
while but they never actually did Jersey
4:05

5:49
happy cuz he's my roommate and roommates
5:51
should be happy together I want to tell
5:54
you so much fun stuff about this
5:55
location talk okay right here the Casten
5:58
crew state in that Hotel overlooking the
6:01
movies so this hotel is where they
6:04
actually film was actually edited too in
6:06
this hotel Kevin Smith edit he Kevin
6:08
Smith do you hear this this guy knows
6:11
what's going on and also you can see
6:12
this prominently in a lot of the scenes
6:15
especially the roof scenes cuz a lot of
6:17
stuff happened on the roof so when they
6:18
were on the roof filming you can
6:20
actually see this hotel you can see
6:22
across the street I think those
6:24
buildings are newer post 2006 but you
6:28
can also see this building is as well
6:30
these trees all of this still is exactly
6:32
the same see Jason Muse wasn't necessary
6:35
for everyday of filming but he actually
6:37
came and stayed the entire course of the
6:39
shoot and in his room like they went to
6:40
Target the first day and he got all
6:42
kinds of like rubber plants and stuff
6:44
just to make it feel like at home for
6:46
the few weeks there he'll fil in the
6:48
room or maybe on the ledge in the room
6:50
and he got his own like uh hot plate and
6:53
he would cook for the crew even though
6:54
it was catered the whole time very
6:56
interesting facts the drive-thru was
6:59
right over there there was a huge dance
7:02
scene kind of where that guy's riding by
7:03
on the bicycle but a little bit closer
7:05
to us there was a massive dance scene a
7:07
choreograph dance scene with Jay and
7:09
Silent Bob and the whole rest of the
7:12
cast probably about 20 or 30 people
7:14
wouldn't you say or more maybe even that
7:16
ABC by The Jackson 5 ABC by The Jackson
7:19
5 happened right over in that area right
7:23
there the camera would have been facing
7:24
towards us where you could see the fast
7:27
food establishment and the crane shot
7:29
went between those two trees straight up
7:32
looking down towards us awesome if
7:36
you're familiar with the plot of the
7:37
movie it would have been right around
7:38
here that Dante told Randall that Becky
7:41
was pregnant right in this exact area
7:44
and check it out the drivethru paint job
7:47
is still on the floor right there they
7:51
didn't use the drive-thru actually that
7:53
much they did there was that metal scene
7:56
in the beginning grandma what was it
7:58
like but but more importantly uh Dante
8:01
would have proposed to Becky through the
8:03
drive-thru right at the end right here
8:05
gives her that ring while uh believe the
8:08
Atlantis morset song is playing right
8:10
here it was right around this exact spot
8:13
so if you have the movie I don't think
8:15
the movie is currently on Netflix it's
8:17
not on Netflix but if you own it on DVD
8:18
is it on Blu-ray yet it probably is if
8:21
you own it on DVD or Blu-ray or if you
8:24
are a fan of downloading stuff I'm not
8:26
really sure if it's on the Torrance or
8:27
anything but you do not want to tell
8:29
that to Kevin Smith because Kevin Smith
8:30
obviously wants you to purchase the
8:32
Blu-ray and the DVD that's what it's all
8:34
about so do it legally it comes with a
8:36
documentary full link and I remember
8:38
watching Clerks 2 recently I was
8:40
borrowing your DVD and Kevin Smith said
8:42
at the beginning of it he does a whole
8:44
introduction he said that is packed full
8:46
of goodies there are so many commentary
8:48
tracks so many extra features back to
8:50
the whe is about an hour and a half long
8:52
it's really amazing definitely worth
8:54
getting the DVD or hopefully if the
8:56
Blu-ray is out so if you have that
8:58
definitely match up some of the shots
9:00
from the actual movie so like if I
9:04
understand correctly this would be where
9:06
the counter was about thereabouts so
9:08
right behind me is where they had the
9:10
whole pillow pants discussion if you
9:12
haven't seen the movie if you have you
9:13
know exactly what I'm talking about now
9:15
how would you describe the movie when it
9:17
comes to age bracket like people that
9:18
are watching this they think hey I'm
9:20
going to throw the movie and I have a
9:21
six or a seven or a 12year old daughter
9:24
or a son what is the age bracket depends
9:28
depends on what kind of house household
9:29
you live in how uh what was the movie
9:31
rated oh it was definitely an r and I
9:33
think because of language and because of
9:36
some of the stuff that happens within
9:37
the film they wanted it to be nc7 but it
9:40
stayed R so it definitely is not I saw
9:43
when I was in high school you want to
9:44
pre-at it before your kids watches
9:46
basically what what you're saying
9:48
clickers came out when I was five I
9:49
didn't see it then but saw it about 5
9:52
years later when I was like 10 or so and
9:53
I I loved it there's a lot of language
9:55
but that that personally personally
9:57
doesn't bother me but it does bother
9:58
some people people so keep it in mind it
10:01
is pretty amazing like you were saying
10:02
to think that this was the inside of the
10:04
restaurant all the interior shots were
10:06
filmed right in this exact
10:15
area huh Randall does the Wrangle there
10:15
on the counter right there on the
10:16
counter right there on the counter where
10:18
would the office have been where do you
10:19
think the office the office if this is
10:21
the counter would have been back here
10:24
this is where the office and that's
10:25
actually the first scene that was filmed
10:27
for the movie between where he was where
10:29
he was painting the toenails that was
10:31
the first that was the first scene that
10:32
Kevin Smith edited actually and Jeff
10:35
Anderson who plays Randall wasn't sure
10:36
still about the film but he came and
10:38
took him upstairs and showed him that
10:40
edit of the movie and that's what
10:41
convinced him to uh stay and do the rest
10:43
of it and he knew it would be good after
10:45
that very he was tied in he was supposed
10:47
to say what pale what smells like uh
10:50
nail polish or something but he he kept
10:52
saying shoe polish from clerics cuz if
10:54
you remember he did the sign and shoe
10:56
polish I'm a big fan of this guys I
10:57
could go I have a lot of ad admiration
10:59
for Kevin Smith because Kevin Smith is
11:01
similar to me I moved out of my
11:03
apartment I started traveling in my van
11:05
I maxed my credit cards out to travel
11:08
around to start doing videos lived in my
11:10
van for 3 years and now I'm living with
11:12
this fine gentleman here in Southern
11:14
California so things are starting not
11:17
really to pay off but definitely be on
11:19
the upswing so Kevin Smith for me is a
11:21
big inspiration because when clerks came
11:23
out when he created clerks he was
11:25
actually working at that convenience
11:27
store he maxed out his credit cards had
11:30
no money and thankfully clerks was a big
11:33
hit and created the Empire known as the
11:36
Kevin Smith Empire the podcasting Guru
11:40
and the independent film guys so I have
11:42
a lot of respect for Kevin Smith even
11:45
though I am not on the same Plateau the
11:47
same wavelength as this fan you want to
11:50
call yourself a fanboy kind I don't know
11:52
I've read every book I have every movie
11:54
that's pretty much that's pretty much a
11:56
all the q&as from an evening with
11:59
recently was it on New Year's Eve New
12:01
Year Eve you went and hung out with the
12:03
podcasters Kevin Smith I didn't hang out
12:05
with them but I was well you were in the
12:07
room the Hollywood Babylon in Brea so
12:10
that's pretty awesome all right everyone
12:13
go on Twitter what is Kevin Smith's
12:14
Twitter again it's that Kevin Smith
12:16
Instagram is the that Kevin Smith on
12:18
Instagram and Twitter send him this
12:20
video bombard Kevin Smith I will as well
12:24
retweet it keep sending it to him every
12:26
day until he sees it and
12:29
he will appreciate this in some sort of
12:32
fashion he has made a living off the
12:34
internet basically in some sort of
12:36
vicarious way so we are sending our
12:39
vicarious internet video vicarious is an
12:42
interesting word I use that all time
12:44
that's right kind of all the time so
12:46
Kevin Smith if you're listening we want
12:47
to be in one of your Southern California
12:50
movies adamthe wo.com Tyler Evans Rock
12:53
journalist from livefast i.com we want
12:56
to be in your movie yes that's what this
12:58
is and uh watch out for clerks 3 it's
13:00
filming in June I believe and if that's
13:02
filmed out here it's not it's going to
13:04
be filmed in Philadelphia okay well we
13:06
probably will not be commuting to
13:07
Philadelphia unless Kevin Smith feels
13:09
like flying us out there hey we would go
13:11
I would Southern Southern California
13:13
would be just a quick drive it would
13:14
make my life complete if I could be in
13:16
the quick stop for a shot in clerk 3
13:18
that would be pretty awesome I have
13:19
actually been there on my birthday about
13:21
3 years ago I did a daily Vlog from
13:24
there outside of there I think it was
13:26
about two or actually two years ago
13:27
because yesterday was day 1,000 days in
13:30
a row of doing these daily Vlogs without
13:32
missing a day this is day 1,1 on this
13:36
happy Sunday I'm going to give you a
13:38
moment of quietness now and just walk
13:41
around Before We Say Goodbye so a moment
13:43
of quietness starts right
14:26
all right that's about it any other last
14:26
comments criticism or any other sort of
14:30
things that you want to add into the
14:31
conversation before we end this Vlog
14:33
here on this happy Sunday no criticisms
14:35
I think that Clerk's 2 signifies the
14:38
second half of Kevin Smith's career and
14:41
I'm really interested to see where he
14:42
goes from here I'm really excited for
14:44
clerks 3 we'll see how it goes but I'm
14:47
really excited about it I think the
14:49
whole entire cast is coming back to you
14:51
from clerk 1 and which is we very very
14:53
exciting and hopefully there are a
14:55
couple additional cast members in the
14:57
background all all right see you guys
14:59
later and see you later Kevin Smith cuz
15:02
hopefully you have watched this video
15:04
goodbye
