Today's adventure begins as a recording

of this Wednesday, August 20th, 2025.

Late last night, well, late at yesterday
0:09
afternoon, checked into the Knots Hotel
0:11
right next to Knottberry Farm and then
0:13
attended an after hours event called
0:17
Nightmares Revealed, which I did
0:20
yesterday. But today, checking out of
0:21
here, you're going to be heading over
0:23
into Anaheim, staying on Harbor
0:24
Boulevard, checking in at another hotel.
0:27
We're spending the evening over at the
0:31
Tropicana Inn and Suites, which is a
0:33
place I always like to stay. But first,
0:35
I'm going to kind of wander around the
0:37
outskirts of Knottberry Farm. Grab
0:39
myself a Starbucks coffee, piping hot
0:41
caffeinated beverage, and then at some
0:43
point, probably in the next hour or so,
0:45
check out of here and head from Bua
0:47
Park, California in SoCal down to
0:49
Anaheim. Still a couple more days in
0:51
SoCal before heading home. But I'm on
0:53
the home stretch. I'm on the home
0:55
stretch. Welcome everyone. Adam the
0:58
Woohoo here. I'm wearing an appropriate
1:00
t-shirt that I purchased at the Scary
1:03
Farm
1:05
announcement
1:07
shindig that happened last night. The
1:09
zoo, which is going to be one of the new
1:10
mazes. A month off till scary farm
1:12
opens, but it's nice to have that little
1:13
teaser, that little taste.
1:16
Got to go grab a little caffeine, walk
1:19
around a little bit. might cross over to
1:21
another Knots property, non-the park
1:24
property that anyone can access and
1:26
access and walk around over in and just
1:29
have myself have ourselves a day. My
1:31
buddy Kevin still up in the hotel room.
1:33
He's with me as well. He's going to be,
1:35
you know, going from here down to
1:37
Anaheim as well. We have some stuff
1:40
planned in the OC today and tomorrow and
1:44
then shortly after that probably start
1:46
making our our cross country commute
1:50
back to central Florida
1:53
for the rest of the month. Join me.
1:55
Let's have ourselves a day. Oh
2:07
dropping in.
2:07
join me, shall you? And for those that
2:10
have been asking and wondering, Kevin
2:12
has a channel called Kevin Heimbach. He
2:15
does a lot of HHN Universal stuff.
2:24
Quick little search, you'll be able to
2:24
find his channel. So for those for those
2:26
inquiring, Kevin Heimbach,
2:36
I love that you can just walk right
2:36
underneath Ghost Rider
2:47
under the bowels, the nether regions of
2:47
a classic Southern California wooden
2:50
coaster. I'm not going to go in the
2:51
park, but I am going to walk over
2:53
through the gift shop, Virginia's Gift
2:54
Shop. And then tucked away over here at
2:56
the exit
2:58
is a coffee shop. A coffee achieved. I
3:00
kind of wish they did. I've said this
3:01
before. I'm going to reiterate. I'm
3:02
going to say something I've said almost
3:04
every time I'm here. I wish [snorts]
3:05
they would come out with one of the
3:06
Starbucks mugs, the you are here or the
3:08
you were there type of series for
3:11
Knottberry Farm. Now, I it's kind of
3:13
wild because I was saying that at Warner
3:15
Brothers for many, many years. said
3:16
about a year ago, as luck would have it,
3:19
Warner Brothers came out with a mug like
3:22
that, but for some reason, Knots does
3:24
not have one. You know, the Disney parks
3:25
have them, Universal has them, Warner
3:28
Brothers, Warner Brothers have them, but
3:30
there is not a Starbucks mug yet. An
3:33
actual collectible, you are here, you
3:35
were there, whatever they call them.
3:36
Now, the the you were series is not not
3:39
to notch yet, but if they if they have
3:41
one, I'll buy one for now.
3:44
Piping caffeinated beverage. So, I've
3:45
said that a couple times already. Any
3:47
cafe.
3:47
>> Ah, yes. Some boenberry goodness. And I
3:51
did something for the first time a
3:52
little bit earlier. And I used boenberry
3:56
body wash and I used boenberry shampoo
3:59
and conditioner. I'll show it when I get
4:01
back to the the hotel, but that's what
4:03
they have in the shower. Everything is
4:06
boenberry here. Everything is boenberry
4:08
and scary farm. That's like the two uh
4:11
the two things.
4:13
and Ghost Town Alive.
4:16
There's more than that, but that's
4:16
they're known for their boys and berry
4:19
>> right here.
4:20
>> And Snoopy and Charlie Brownill
4:23
>> Dirt Happens.
4:31
This is a cute shirt.
4:31
Listen.
4:37
Ah, people screaming
4:37
over on Ghost Rider. So, I walked across
4:40
the road. Well, underneath the road,
4:41
actually, there's a tunnel that leads
4:43
over to this property. Also,
4:52
first meet up I ever did.
4:52
I think it was 2013, maybe, maybe 14.
4:55
2013, a recreation of Independence Hall.
5:05
I think maybe 20 people showed up. Kind
5:05
of announced it a couple days before and
5:07
did a little meet up right here. I was
5:08
just like blown away.
5:10
that people who watch my videos showed
5:12
up to say hi.
5:15
I started the intro to my video
5:18
right up there on that balcony. It was
5:21
unedited. Walked down, said hi to
5:23
everyone.
5:47
There's a Liberty Bell
5:47
recreation Liberty Bell right there.
5:58
This is so cool. Look at this. A lot of
5:58
people don't realize this is over here.
6:06
You can just walk right in. Take a look
6:06
right there.
6:08
Just like in Philadelphia.
6:13
Not sure if this one has the crack in
6:13
it, though.
6:28
Some antiques. Here's a 17th century
6:28
Italian harps accord
6:53
Yeah, just open. You walk in. No
6:54
admission. Oh, is that a McGuffy reader?
7:13
There we go. We got some wax figures
7:13
over here. Betsy Ross
7:17
and George Washington.
7:20
Betsy of course responsible for making
7:23
the flag
7:26
there.
7:31
>> Signing of the Declaration of
7:31
Independence.
7:33
Just really great history here
7:36
>> on Knots property, not part of the theme
7:38
park.
7:50
>> I just had a really good conversation
7:50
with a couple of team members from Knots
7:52
in there. They were saying this is open
7:54
every day from I think 10:00 to 5, 10 to
7:57
4. They're open every day including
7:59
weekends. They also said when the rare
8:02
occasion that there is a storm or a
8:05
downpour and a rainy day, they will not
8:08
be open. They're not open in the rain.
8:10
They said sometimes, I didn't realize
8:11
this. Sometimes knots on a stormy day
8:14
will close or not open. A lot different
8:17
than Florida. Disneyland, I think, will
8:20
stay Yeah, Disneyland will stay open in
8:22
the rain, but a lot of the outdoor
8:23
attractions will close. But I guess it
8:25
nots, you know, very rarely does it
8:28
downpour in Buena Park or Anaheim. But
8:30
when it does, kind of changes changes
8:32
things around a little bit, unlike
8:34
Florida, which it rains every day,
8:36
especially in the summer.
8:38
Fun facts. This is what I was referring
8:40
to as the underground tunnel that goes
8:42
under the street. Believe that's Beach
8:44
Boulevard there.
8:46
And you walk underneath,
8:50
which is really convenient cuz it does
8:51
not you don't have to worry about
8:52
traffic stopping and all that. And you
8:54
just walk from one of the parking lots
8:57
from Independence Hall over to the parks
9:00
and back to the hotel.
9:16
The short commute back to the hotel
9:16
here, the Knots Hotel.
9:19
This is kind of like a little hidden
9:21
gem, a diamond in the rough, if you
9:22
will. Really not a bad price. I think it
9:25
was like 150 a night, give or take a
9:28
little bit, but not too expensive. Maybe
9:29
one between 150 and 160.
9:33
And it's so close to the park. And then
9:34
rooms are really nice since they
9:36
refurbed it. I mean, really, you could
9:39
stay here if I hadn't already booked the
9:41
one on Harbor. I could have just Ubered
9:43
down to the Disney parks and stuff over
9:46
the next day or two. But
9:48
checking out of here
9:51
going
9:56
I always reference The Shining when I'm
9:56
in hotel.
9:58
Always.
10:00
They revamped this a few years ago.
10:12
Forever
10:12
and ever
10:14
and ever.
10:34
That's great.
10:34
Inside knots ghost town.
10:36
>> You know, I just got back to the room. I
10:37
didn't even realize. Kevin was like,
10:38
"Dude, they wrote your name on the cup.
10:41
How do you even realize it?" This is our
10:43
view from the window, too. You can't You
10:45
can't open this up anymore and go out on
10:47
the the ledge, but there's a little
10:50
ledge here, a courtyard.
10:52
This is how close
10:54
to Ghost Rider we are.
11:01
All right, I had to show this inside the
11:01
echoey
11:04
bathroom here. Body wash, boenberry and
11:07
vanilla conditioner and shampoo. both
11:12
poison berry and vanilla flavored. Well,
11:15
not flavored. You don't you don't taste
11:18
it, but you smell it.
11:22
And it comes out.
11:25
Let's see here. Let's see. That's the
11:26
conditioner shampoo.
11:37
Look at that. Poison berry flavored.
11:37
Not going to be the greatest room tour
11:38
simply because we were in here last
11:40
night. We've already slept in the beds,
11:44
utilized the bathrooms.
11:46
Got the little plates here with the boys
11:48
and berries on them. Little boys and
11:49
berry pie. Knottberry place there on
11:52
that one. This is the view. Traditional
11:55
old school style
11:57
motel style air conditioning there.
12:00
Nice and cozy.
12:06
Heading out. Look, they're working on
12:06
the roof up there.
12:10
Yep. Fixing something.
12:19
All right. All checked in. Showing the
12:19
lobby here with some of the This is a
12:22
picture of the old lobby before they
12:24
revamped it. A little bit of history.
12:34
A little Disneyland ticket back when
12:34
Disneyland was 550. Main gate mission
12:38
550.
12:53
Kind of a mellow day in here.
12:53
And we're able to check in early.
12:56
Getting an early check in. We've been
12:58
pretty lucky with getting early
12:59
check-ins. We checked into
13:01
Universal Hilton early and now we're
13:03
check into Tropicana a little early.
13:17
This is the close proximity to the
13:17
parks.
13:19
Montreal beam right there. Bus going by.
13:22
Got a little gift shop here if you need
13:25
to get any snacks, beverages, coffee.
13:28
Cove on Harbor Market and Cafe,
13:31
there's an elevator, but there's only
13:33
two floors. Well, actually, it's three
13:34
floors.
13:36
And then right over there in that little
13:37
cubby hole, there's a washer and dryer.
13:41
I've never stayed in these rooms. Maybe
13:43
one day. Maybe I'll stay with a little
13:44
balcony view one day, but usually just
13:46
stay in the normal room. 12:30, just a
13:49
half hour afternoon. We were able to
13:52
check in. A check-in is usually not till
13:53
3:00 or 4. So,
13:56
we're two we're two for two, right on
13:58
the early check-ins.
13:59
>> Oh, yeah.
14:00
>> Well, we checked in knots for one day. I
14:02
don't I think we got there a little
14:03
later, so that wouldn't have mattered.
14:05
But we're two for two on the like noon
14:07
check-ins on places that we should have
14:08
checked in until 4:00.
14:11
Ah, yes. I know this place all too well.
14:15
Stayed here many times. Not in this
14:17
exact room, but I've stayed in this
14:20
hotel many times. Getting
14:23
the air kicking out. It's a little warm
14:24
today.
14:30
Same style of old motel style there of
14:30
the AC. Nice little chair. Some palm
14:34
trees. Two beds, one for each of us.
14:39
Lights now on. That would have helped if
14:40
I would turn that on. But
14:50
Yeah. It's just kind of an old motel.
14:50
It's been here for many, many years that
14:52
they fixed up, revamped, made it all
14:54
nice.
14:57
Little bath bar here. Woodenberry and
15:00
company. Nothing too fancy. Kind of
15:02
little humble cute accommodations
15:05
in very close proximity to the
15:06
Disneyland Resort. I've never measured
15:08
it feetwise, but I would say it's closer
15:11
here to walk to the Aspenad than it
15:13
would be
15:16
the Disneyland Hotel.
15:29
Little coffee there. Coffee creamer.
15:29
Safe to say that's where you put your
15:31
money. Let's see if there's a Gideonss
15:32
in here. Nope.
15:35
Right over there in that one.
15:42
No Gideonss.
15:42
Gideons fail.
15:44
A microwave. Fridge. Couple of drawers.
15:49
TV
15:51
right up top there.
15:53
Of course, beds
16:02
and just a very short hop, skip, or jump
16:02
if you so choose over to the Walt
16:04
original Magic Kingdom, which I'm
16:05
probably going to go over to Downtown
16:07
Disney at some point. I think they put
16:08
their Halloween decor Halloween
16:11
merchandise out since the last time I
16:12
was here. All right, relax a little bit
16:14
at the room.
16:16
Now, I think I'm going to walk over to
16:17
Downtown Disney to World of Disney,
16:19
check out some merchandise,
16:21
see what's happening over
16:24
on property.
16:39
>> So close. So close. A little bit later
16:39
this evening, we're going to go over to
16:40
Garden Walk, which is the little outdoor
16:43
mall area, which isn't too far. From
16:46
here, it's on the next street corner and
16:47
then up
16:49
>> and go see the new movie weapons, which
16:51
we've heard a lot of good things about.
16:53
>> So, I'm going to pop in here first cuz
16:55
I'm not good at it.
16:58
Maybe an hour or so Downtown Disney. Not
17:00
even going to go in the park
17:03
and then a little bit later. It's also a
17:05
little It's a little warm today. A
17:07
little little warm for SoCal for sure.
17:09
Not a lot of cloud cover out here, which
17:11
does not help with the sun gleaming down
17:14
upon you.
17:16
Was kind of hoping that the Montreal
17:17
would come by, but no luck. No way of
17:21
knowing when the Montreal will zip by.
17:34
All right, no luck on the Montreal going
17:34
in. I'm now on Disneyland property. Now,
17:37
this however I have not seen. I really
17:39
like this. It's like vampire Mickey
17:42
right here with the trickor treat little
17:44
pumpkin there and all those little
17:45
delicious treats inside of the inside of
17:47
the pumpkin itself. I like I like that.
17:50
And I think this might be the best part
17:52
of it. You can go around the backside.
17:54
Not the backside of water, but the
17:55
backside of Vampire Mickey. That is very
17:58
very This is very tempting. I maybe I
18:00
haven't seen this at Disney World, but I
18:02
I like this a lot. The backside. And I
18:04
did in fact end up getting what I just
18:07
showed the the Mickey back and forth
18:08
Mickey the front and back on the vampire
18:10
Mickey ended up getting 436. It's 93°
18:15
but there's like man it is it's showing
18:17
cloud cover here but there's no cloud
18:19
cover and call it a haze
18:22
possibly. I mean is that cloud cover? I
18:24
guess it' be more like a haze.
18:31
I tempted to just get in the pool.
18:31
Problem is the pool. No shade at the
18:34
pool. Definitely not a hot tub day.
18:38
Maybe later tonight maybe. Yeah, maybe
18:41
later tonight when the sun's down.
18:43
Difference between Florida and
18:44
California and Florida when the sun goes
18:46
down is still ridiculously hot. Vegas
18:48
when we were there ridiculously hot even
18:50
when the sun goes down. But SoCal you
18:53
kind of get a little quite a bit more
18:55
coolness when the sun goes down. So
18:57
that's the difference. Just as I
18:59
suspected, not a soul in the pool.
19:03
Well, there's souls in the pool, but
19:05
there's no souls in the hot tub. Why
19:06
would there be? It's scorching. And I
19:08
will not be able to hit the hot tub
19:09
later because we're going to the movie
19:11
at 7:30. So, the movie will probably
19:13
start at 8:00. 2-hour movie, going to
19:16
see weapons. It'll be over around 10.
19:19
Oh, construction update. Look over here.
19:21
Avengers Campus.
19:24
There's the crane.
19:39
Guardians drop ride. Used to be
19:39
Hollywood Tower.
19:41
Walking over to
19:43
the Anaheim Hotel where I've stayed many
19:45
times. Going to get Pizza Press. And
19:47
then after that I walk down to Garden
19:49
Walk which is behind it and go see see a
19:52
movie
19:54
weapons.
19:57
Yeah, there's those clouds like kind of
20:00
streaky clouds.
20:07
Almost looks like a ghost of sort sorts.
20:07
Maybe that's the cloud saying it's
20:09
almost haunt season.
20:17
Yeah, pizza press over here. It's
20:18
interesting. Every time I stay on
20:19
harbor, well, not every time, but a
20:21
majority of the times I will go to pizza
20:23
press.
20:25
However, there's one right across from
20:27
where I live in Celebration, right
20:28
across 192. Very close proximity to
20:32
Celebration. And I never eat at that
20:33
one. I've only eaten there once. This
20:35
one I've probably eaten at 25 times.
20:38
It's just every time I stay on Harbor, I
20:40
get like a hankering and a hunger for
20:42
pizza press. It's like win in Anaheim
20:44
kind of moment.
20:46
And my pizza is going through. I did a
20:48
build your own getting out of all these
20:50
different items through here. You got
20:52
the roofing over here. Here you got the
20:55
start off with the editorial and then
20:56
they just load up whatever you want on
20:58
our on our pizza pies. 1745 for a build
21:02
your own on the size of a pizza about
21:05
that big. It goes through this oven very
21:08
slowly known as the pizza press and then
21:12
it's published and it dumps out on the
21:15
other side right over here through this
21:17
rack. Get any additional things as well.
21:21
quick and easy build your own type of
21:23
thing. I think that I think that might
21:26
that might be starting to peek his head
21:29
out very very slowly. You can see the
21:33
marks there
21:42
of beauty. I think it definitely is
21:42
fully cooked.
21:46
Takes probably 5 minutes to go through
21:48
completely through the oven.
21:50
It's like being burnt.
21:52
Being burnt out
21:55
right there. Kevin just got a stand up
21:58
running.
22:11
I love artich parts. Artichoke parts,
22:11
garlic, onions,
22:17
a little bit of everything. A big
22:17
Supreme guy here.
22:31
Yeah, it's weird. I think maybe I should
22:31
say when I'm on harbor, I can walk to
22:33
this where in celebration I take the
22:35
golf cart over or drive over.
22:43
Have a soda machine. Also, look at this.
22:44
They got some pink flamingos up here.
22:46
But I think instead of getting a soda,
22:48
sometimes I like to get like the dragon
22:50
fruit right there. Berry patch and
22:52
dragon fruit. They also have mango. I'll
22:55
go with the strawberry dragon fruit. I
22:57
had a dragon refresher earlier. This is
23:01
dragon fruit, pomegranate, and
23:02
strawberry mixed.
23:08
Go in on that. Usually I get it to go
23:08
when I go back to the hotel. But because
23:12
Kevin and I are here, we're heading over
23:13
to the movie. We're not going back to
23:14
the hotel. We're going to grab a seat
23:17
right over here at the pizza press.
23:19
There's the press right there. Instead
23:21
of making newspapers though, they're
23:22
making pizza. Pizza pies. Publish your
23:25
own right there. This is what we're
23:27
dealing with with the Got a little side
23:29
of ranch. Oh, you got to do the
23:32
unveiling.
23:33
>> We got a little double dough,
23:35
>> a little hot honey pepperoni, and then
23:37
you got the guava a cider.
23:39
>> Okay. So, you can order you can get
23:42
double dough. You can double up on the
23:43
breading. Okay. Very. I got more like a
23:47
thin sliced over here.
23:50
Nice.
23:52
>> Yeah. I don't know. When in Anaheim and
23:54
you're on harbor, I recommend this
23:55
place. It's like pretty fast. There's
23:57
hardly ever a massive line in here. And
23:59
the pizza's good. I love some I love
24:01
pizza though. I'm a big pizza guy. And
24:03
sliced warm, fresh, and uh ready to
24:07
rock. The cheese pool. Too hot for the
24:10
cheese. Too hot. It's just It's all
24:11
coming off.
24:12
>> The burn pool. That's what it is. What's
24:14
it called? It's instead of a cheese
24:17
pull. It's a bird pool cuz it's burn
24:18
hot.
24:21
>> I'm getting a ham pull. Pulling a hammy.
24:24
If you wanted to park over here and not
24:25
in the Disneyland parking structure and
24:27
you didn't have a hotel on harbor, you
24:31
wanted to be this close to just walk
24:32
across. You pay $35 here. It used to be
24:35
a lot cheaper. I think it was like 15
24:36
bucks at one time. Then it was like 20
24:38
25. Now it's 35.
24:47
Which if you're paying that much to park
24:47
in the Mickey and Friends parking, I'd
24:50
rather park here for 35. Way closer.
24:52
>> Well, after you post the video, it's
24:53
going to go up to 40 and everybody's
24:55
going to be coming to park.
24:56
>> Ah, true. Next week it might be 40.
25:01
>> Hey, the pool at the Anaheim Hotel is
25:03
right behind that little hedge. Stayed
25:06
here quite a few times.
25:13
I don't remember these being here.
25:13
That's like a prehistoric creature of
25:15
some sort.
25:17
Out of the way.
25:25
I haven't been to Garden Walk in a
25:25
while.
25:27
There's a mammoth
25:49
Man, it's like a parade rolling through
25:49
here now. Not only of cars, but of
25:51
animals,
25:52
some zebras.
25:59
Kevin and I were just discussing why
25:59
Disney does not purchase the Garden
26:01
Walk. cuz Garden Walk is not really
26:02
thriving anymore
26:05
cuz you got Toy Story parking way over
26:07
there past Garden Walk, which they own.
26:09
Then you have this entire spot that's
26:11
not owned by Disneyland. And then you
26:13
got employee parking over there that's
26:15
owned. So if for some reason they ever
26:17
got their hands on this, that's a
26:18
massive footprint. That could be a third
26:20
gate.
26:22
Almost a year ago, well not quite. I
26:24
think it was early September. So coming
26:27
to be close to be a year. I did the run
26:29
Disney Halloween event last year.
26:32
Started right here. This was this is
26:33
where we were my buddy the Tim Tim
26:36
tracker. We were running this way. Went
26:38
right through here. We were coralled and
26:40
then went that way. This is where the
26:42
starting point was. We got our lanyards
26:45
and everything over there.
27:00
Just a little short distance from where
27:00
we're staying.
27:02
It'll be dark when we get out of the
27:04
movie. Is that the movie theater up
27:06
there? I never been to a movie here.
27:22
House of Blues is over here. Used to be
27:22
at Downtown Disney where Splitzville is
27:24
now.
27:25
That's House of Blues up there.
27:31
Never been to a show at House of Blues
27:31
here in Anaheim. There's a concert at
27:32
House of Blues tonight. Not sure who's
27:34
playing in there, but there's some
27:35
people up there. But yeah, the Carnival
27:37
at Grasslands. It's going to be a future
27:39
re-imagined VR type of thing that
27:42
stretches all the way down there. This
27:43
is where I was thinking of. This has
27:45
been here for a long time. The new
27:46
company that's going to be taking this
27:47
over is going to be called Eulogy
27:50
Collective. They used to not have a gate
27:52
here and you could get a photo here in
27:53
the grasp of this ghoul, but now they
27:55
put this like gate around it so you
27:57
can't get the photo op anymore. There's
27:58
also one right up here. I guess you
28:00
could do a photo op where it acts like
28:01
you're gra she's like grabbing your head
28:03
or something with the exception of
28:04
people going to the movie and to the
28:07
concert. Most people are parking over at
28:09
Toy Story parking and just walking from
28:11
here to Disneyland. That seems to be
28:15
kind of what most people are doing. Ah,
28:16
yes. The Orange County Crows at the
28:20
night. Those things, they flock around
28:22
Downtown Disney
28:24
around this hour.
28:26
I wonder when the last time this
28:28
concierge booth was opened.
28:30
When's the last time you think this Con
28:32
concierge booth was open?
28:34
>> Probably the same time the 192 one was
28:36
open selling tickets.
28:37
>> This is pretty nice. This is uh this is
28:39
what I was just talking about. The crows
28:40
kind of flying over. This would be
28:42
really a kind of a beautiful like pre-
28:44
sunset like dusk like early dust like
28:46
late dusk pre- sunset crows flying over
28:49
a true Hitchcock would be proud moment
28:52
flying over Orange County all the
28:54
different crows going over CityWalk
28:55
going somewhere maybe over Downtown
28:57
Disney I don't know but seeing the crows
28:59
and now getting ready to go into the AMC
29:01
getting ready to watch weapons it's the
29:03
same director from Barbarian at first I
29:05
thought it was going to be a sequel to
29:07
Barbarian but evidently has nothing to
29:09
do with Barbarian But I did like
29:11
Barbarian. It was a It was a very
29:13
interesting interesting creepy film. So,
29:15
but I've heard this one is getting
29:17
better reviews and people are kind of
29:18
ranting and raving about this being such
29:20
a a great movie. So, excited to see it.
29:22
All right. Just got out of the movie. It
29:24
was very interesting. So, it the first
29:27
three quarters of the movie kind of go
29:29
back and forth showing I don't give too
29:31
many spoilers, but showing things from
29:32
different perspective of different
29:33
characters. One thing I thought was
29:35
really interesting is the main villain,
29:37
the the lady who's the main villain. You
29:39
probably seen photos of her and things
29:40
like that without giving too many
29:42
spoilers. She was Kevin Cosner's wife in
29:46
Fuel the Dreams and I didn't realize it
29:47
till till the very very end. Well, by
29:49
about halfway through there was a scene
29:51
that it kind of hit me on who she was.
29:53
Amy Mad Amy Madigan is her name. I love
29:57
Field of the Dreams. So, it was weird
29:58
seeing her like in a horror film. But of
30:01
the two movies that I can recall seeing
30:03
from that director, I would say
30:05
Barbarian is probably the favorite. It's
30:06
more of a straightup horror film. This
30:08
is kind of more of like a mystery and
30:09
then it kind of gets horror and slasher
30:12
and scaryish and monstrous at the end.
30:15
But I think of the two, I think I prefer
30:17
Barbarian, but see it yourself. Make
30:19
your own decision. Glad I saw it. Don't
30:22
know if I'd see it a second time.
30:25
Barbarian I would definitely watch
30:27
again. I've seen it a couple times. I
30:28
don't know if I'd watch that one again,
30:29
but maybe one day. Maybe when it's on
30:32
streaming I'll watch it again.
30:38
Also, if you would have told me Jordan
30:38
Peele had directed that film, I would
30:41
have probably gone into it thinking that
30:43
Jordan Peele directed that. Kind of
30:45
reminded me of a not as good Jordan
30:48
Peele film.
30:51
Not saying it was bad, but I don't think
30:54
it lived up to the hype everyone was
30:56
saying how good it was. Anyway, that's
30:58
my review. Back at the hotel
31:05
now. Now, I feel like I'm going to go on
31:05
a I won't say a deep dive, but I
31:07
probably got to go on a a a slightly
31:09
moderately half deep dive on the
31:12
backstory of the the main character,
31:14
Witch Lady from Field of Dreams.
31:18
I'm just going to call her Field of
31:20
Dreams Lady. You ever see Field of
31:22
Dreams?
31:22
>> Oh, great movie. This movie.
31:25
>> You've been waiting to give your
31:26
opinion.
31:26
>> Yeah, it's a Teimu Jordan field film
31:29
cinematography. Beautiful, right? The
31:31
way they move the camera is wonderful. I
31:33
was bored. It's kind of a clunky mess.
31:35
>> Yeah,
31:35
>> half of it could have been cut out.
31:37
Sure, there's some artsy fartsy deeper
31:39
meaning to it, [laughter] but like
31:41
>> it was his spookiness. It was kind of
31:42
missing it. Like
31:44
>> it wasn't it wasn't a horror film.
31:45
>> Everybody was like, "It's the best movie
31:46
ever." No,
31:47
>> it wasn't bad, but it wasn't great.
31:49
>> It's like, okay, a game changer.
31:51
>> I can't I don't want to watch that.
31:52
Don't want to watch that. Let's watch
31:54
this. I You make it halfway through.
31:56
>> You know what is exciting though, Kevin?
31:58
>> The Montreal.
32:00
There you go. There goes
32:03
the Montreal. Go watch the movie and
32:05
make your own decision. It's not bad,
32:07
but it's not going to it's not going to
32:09
it's not going to live on in infamy as
32:10
one of the greatest films ever made. All
32:11
right, that's going to do it for today.
32:14
Very echoey under here. Very echoey. Now
32:18
it's not. Thanks for watching. See you
32:20
in the next video. The vlog.
32:23
Go watch Field of Dreams.
32:26
Nudo run.
32:28
The vlog is over.
