baby
0:47
Brew welcome everyone Adam the woo here
0:50
I am very
0:53
excited about today this pretty much
0:55
sums up this
0:58
beverage cup of joy
1:00
wo it is a little chilly out here and it
1:03
rained last night it's my second channel
1:05
daily Vlog channel it's I'm going to
1:06
need a jacket the daily
1:17
woo nice good morning did you miss me oh
1:17
there's a reason I stayed in a motel
1:18
last night there's a reason just wait
1:20
I'm going to tell you not really sure
1:21
why I'm talking to my RV right
1:23
now I'm in a little town called
1:26
Hillsboro it's about an hour south of
1:28
Dallas and boy did it rain last night I
1:31
am a fan of movies as you know one
1:33
director in particular that I enjoys
1:36
work is Wes Anderson he did Rushmore
1:39
Royal tenant bombs Life Aquatic but the
1:41
very first movie he ever made which was
1:44
a box office
1:46
Bomb
1:48
1996's b rocket and why the heck is
1:50
there a parking spot stopper right here
1:52
next to this drainage dish nearly half
1:56
the feature film took place on this
2:01
property what I like to call as the
2:04
bottle
2:05
rockets motel and others call it that
2:08
not just me it's it's kind of the name
2:10
it's been it's been given by fans and oh
2:12
how the tide has turned because now that
2:14
movie is considered a cult CL oh they
2:16
got free continental breakfast and it is
2:18
windy out here I think I might be one of
2:21
a
2:22
handful of people staying here it's been
2:26
a very long time since I had a bowl of
2:28
cereal it's raising in brand
2:47
time when I arrived I wasn't certain if
2:47
I was going to be able to get the room I
2:50
wanted but it happened room
2:56
212
2:56
was available the amazing thing about
3:00
this room is this is the exact spot
3:03
where Owen Wilson Luke Wilson Wes
3:06
Anderson and the rest of the cast spent
3:09
a lot of their time looks like it's
3:11
designated with a cigarette burn it's
3:13
currently a day in and over the last 20
3:16
years they have exchanged things out
3:18
like this table is new the lamp is a
3:21
little bit different and I'm certain
3:23
they have changed out the mattresses
3:26
they would have put a cot right here
3:28
that way all three of the would be
3:30
robbers could fit in here many scenes
3:33
were filmed in this very room including
3:35
the one where Anthony met inz for the
3:38
first
3:39
time it's crazy to think that I'm
3:43
staying in the specific
3:47
room mind is blown this marble
3:50
countertop has been added but this coat
3:53
rack it's the same one as well as this
3:55
door Luke Wilson was sitting right there
3:57
talking on the phone and the camera
4:00
turns in this direction and Owen Wilson
4:04
was standing right there you're going to
4:07
see a side of Digman you've never seen
4:09
before a sick sadistic side later he was
4:12
laying right here after getting in a
4:14
fight and inz went in this very bathroom
4:17
sat on the corner of the tub and got
4:20
some water to help him wash off his
4:23
bloody
4:24
nose it all looks the same down to this
4:30
hand railing and the knobs and the
4:38
spets it's the same freaking tub this is
4:38
also the bathroom that Anthony walked
4:40
out holding the blender to give his
4:42
party guests some
4:44
drinks it might seem mundane to some but
4:47
I think this is pretty freaking cool
4:49
very rarely and maybe even never have I
4:53
stayed inside a room that was
4:57
filmed in a movie that I likeed
5:01
pretty
5:16
fascinating I would imagine they chose
5:16
this particular room because it had a
5:19
great view of the pool used in so many
5:22
scenes I had every intention of swimming
5:25
in the pool today to recreate some of
5:27
the shots but the temperature dropped
5:30
considerably last
5:32
night that's where he was poking his
5:35
head out of the water between the four
5:37
in the 5T deep signs looking towards a
5:42
room at the housekeeper and it just so
5:47
happens there is a housekeeper in the
5:49
same room on the bottom floor is that HZ
5:52
something I just notice is very
5:54
interesting these are the same carts
5:57
that they had in 1996 down to the wheels
6:00
the Bas this little metal Contraption
6:03
dangling off the front that's the same
6:06
one used in the movie no joke the color
6:09
is a little bit different and they have
6:11
added the
6:13
circular structures to the top other
6:16
than that pretty much looks the same and
6:18
there also used to be red carpeting all
6:21
along the ground here they've torn it up
6:24
probably caused a problem with
6:25
mold when it got wet I'm sure here's
6:28
where they were discussing about how
6:30
they needed to get a haircut or dye
6:32
their hair that way people wouldn't
6:35
discover who they were they wanted to be
6:38
Incognito right here just chilling there
6:40
getting a getting a little bit of a sunt
6:43
well then that just means you're a fool
6:45
you're a dang fool you know what I just
6:48
noticed they added over here to the
6:50
right not only the top portion but also
6:54
those pillars the Romantic scene under
6:56
the diving board happened right there
6:59
the diving board has been removed and
7:01
this pool house was a little bit smaller
7:03
they tore it down and built a newer one
7:05
but you'll notice right on the corner is
7:07
the 8T sign and the tiling still looks
7:11
the same you can even see where the
7:12
board used to be embedded into the
7:14
ground and right over here above this
7:17
light seriously look at the tiles and
7:20
even right here this little this little
7:24
spot next to the
7:25
8ot that is seen in the movie that is
7:28
pretty neat
7:36
after nearly 20 years Still Remains the
7:36
Same I'm in the laundry room now and
7:40
this is that scene where he's sitting
7:43
here next to the
7:46
washer she was learning her
7:48
vocabulary they were sharing tamales
7:51
right where that trash can now resides
7:53
is where they were both sitting staring
7:56
off at that field and dignan was out
7:58
there with a water rocket shooting
8:01
fireworks
8:03
off it's very very
8:06
wet I planned on trouncing out there to
8:11
that
8:12
spot I don't think it's going to happen
8:15
one line that I thought was very funny
8:17
they're running down these stairs and he
8:20
says Bob stole his car How Can you steal
8:24
your own car the thing is great about
8:26
Owen Wilson and Wes Anderson movies in
8:28
general is a dialogue and this one this
8:32
movie definitely had a lot of good
8:33
dialogue in it that whole scene makes me
8:36
laugh he flew the cpop while we were
8:40
sleeping maybe he just went to the store
8:42
it's kind of blocked by these pillars in
8:45
this car but this is the scene tell
8:49
Anthony I love him what tell Anthony I
8:54
love
8:55
him okay man I find it very incredible
8:58
that I am on the property from this
9:01
movie right now in fact this Motel is so
9:05
iconic to the film that it was used on
9:08
the Blu-ray release the Criterion
9:12
Collection on the front
9:35
it is chilly out there look how fogged
9:35
up the windows are compared to
9:41
outside big difference in temperature in
9:43
here from out there in fact my phone
9:45
kept turning off battery kept dying
9:48
because it was a little too cold to use
9:50
it out there and they have some caution
9:51
tape
9:52
up a tornado came through here a few
9:55
weeks ago heavy winds blew down the old
9:58
fence
10:08
just noticing a few other things in here
10:08
that are left over from the movie
10:10
starting with these two
10:12
lamps against the wall
10:21
there and this over here as well this
10:21
light socket can be seen over in's
10:23
shoulder in one of the shots and even
10:25
though this has been replaced with the
10:27
modern card entry to
10:29
technology this Hardware on this side
10:33
door is the same and can be seen in the
10:35
movie the drapes are not the same color
10:38
but this little plastic Gizmo that holds
10:43
them in
10:44
place that's from the film that's that's
10:46
a movie prop this microwave refrigerator
10:49
and newer TV were not here then but this
10:52
power outlet this television cord cable
10:56
and
10:57
this lengthy
10:59
cover over the wire leading to the fire
11:03
extinguisher can be seen in a few shots
11:06
as well as this light above the sink now
11:09
I know this is all incredibly nerdy but
11:12
I wanted to pinpoint it out and while
11:13
we're delving deep let me show you a few
11:16
other things as well wow look look at
11:20
those
11:22
clouds think it might rain
11:24
again looks like it 240 is the room that
11:27
she's cleaning and Anthony walks in and
11:29
the guests say in their brain what the
11:32
heck are you doing in our room it was in
11:34
that room this is where he was running
11:35
to find her check out the Water Burger
11:37
up there just like in the movie and boy
11:40
it is windy and cold out here there is a
11:43
restaurant on what was a completely
11:45
abandoned parking lot in the shot where
11:48
he entered room
11:51
215 and they made sweet
11:55
love I I didn't know which other way to
11:57
describe that you know in a clean way
11:59
this is where dignan walks forward stops
12:01
for a second fixes his shirt and then
12:03
turns into room
12:05
230 to say goodbye toz as I was saying
12:08
these are all very small details you can
12:11
watch the movie and try to watch it back
12:12
oh me I got Fritos in my teeth that gas
12:15
billboard could also be seen of course
12:18
it was a dollar and a couple pennies
12:20
then it's doubled whoa Hitchcock would
12:23
be proud now that I think about it and I
12:26
see more storm clouds rolling in the
12:29
standing water already here and
12:31
Nightfall slowly creeping into the
12:35
existence I do need to go out there
12:39
before the flooding gets any worse and
12:41
get that iconic shot I have to I've come
12:44
this far right I can never forgive
12:46
myself if I didn't do it but not before
12:49
removing my shoes and putting my
12:52
flip-flops
12:53
on I think this is a good look for me
12:56
just a little bit of standing water not
12:59
too bad well not so far
13:02
anyway got to get out there I'm fairly
13:04
certain the few people who are staying
13:07
there are probably thinking what is that
13:09
idiot doing check this
13:11
out I've lost one goodbye sandals I must
13:15
leave you here and carry on I must leave
13:19
you and push forward pushing forward
13:22
this is disgusting but when all is said
13:26
and done I have done it
13:29
look at this the L's truck stop sign now
13:33
blocked by the new addition to the roof
13:36
and that
13:38
van kind of blocking the shot a little
13:40
bit and my feet are freezing Beyond
13:45
comparison it is cold and I'm pretty
13:47
much standing in what would be
13:50
considered moderate
13:52
quicksand but I'm doing
13:55
it I'm doing it for the Vlog oh that
13:58
McDonald sign wasn't there back then
14:01
McDonald's rearing its head look at my
14:05
foot it is like buried I hope this is
14:08
not cow poop I hope it's just mud and
14:10
dirt but oh my God disgusting I've also
14:13
just realized that mud holds in coldness
14:19
very well very very well get get off of
14:22
me mud oh this water's cold too what the
14:25
heck this water's
14:27
freezing freezing cold I hope this water
14:30
SP it
14:41

14:41
just want to wash my feet off please
14:43
here's another
14:44
one
14:46
no what the heck Hidden
14:49
Mickey that's not even the color they're
14:51
supposed to be look oh
14:55
man yuck I don't want to get mud on the
14:58
floor floor of the hotel
15:01
room how am I going to do this they're
15:04
not touching the floor oh this is very
15:07
uncomfortable I can't touch the floor I
15:10
do not want my feet to touch the floor
15:13
almost there almost there oh
15:35
and yes I could have easily flown the
15:35
Drone out there but I wanted to walk out
15:37
there my original intention was to put
15:39
the camera on a tripod walk away and
15:42
stand in the same spot the sinking
15:44
quicksand esque mud had other ideas
15:47
though thankfully I had some wherewithal
15:50
to remove my shoes okay now it's drone
15:53
time
16:16
it is incredibly windy out here I
16:16
thought I almost lost it again in the
16:18
mud can you imagine if I got the Drone
16:19
stuck in the mud and I had to trounce
16:21
back out there and do that all over
16:24
again sorry for the bad whistling
16:26
impression of one of the songs from the
16:29
fell I did my
16:37
best this has been a really cool
16:37
experience but now it's time to say
16:42
Vlog over
