Miss Piggy's going to be going away

7:19
there's like a pin inside there too
7:21
that's cool this is the Starbucks drink
7:23
wear this is the Disney pen exclusive
7:25
that just came out a couple of spiffy
7:26
aloha shirts I really like that one
7:28
right there very very stylish $64 you
7:30
can get this one too has Donald on it
7:33
Donald and Mickey on that's the only two
7:34
I see on there I don't see Goofy on
7:36
there at all that's uh that's also
7:40
64.99 keep wanting to get this one too
7:43
now that I'm kind of trying to drop a
7:44
little bit of weight I might wait a
7:45
little while before buying any new any
7:47
new shirts so I can slim down we talked
7:49
about that yesterday see what happens
7:51
this one too it's very very very subtle
7:54
kind of look at the way this shirt is
7:55
it's a very subtle design it's like a it
7:58
doesn't really pop out at you but it's
8:00
on there with the castle there and the
8:01
fireworks and everything I like that oh
8:04
o o I got to buy this I got to buy this
8:06
I forgot that this just came out like a
8:08
few days ago or a week ago they got
8:10
dinosaur G gery ice cream they have it
8:13
in my size again I just said I wasn't
8:15
going to buy anything n 3XL and Smalls
8:18
are all that's left I mean even if they
8:20
had a large or extra large I would get
8:23
probably the the larger extra large I
8:25
can eventually squeeze into it but I
8:26
will never squeeze into a small matter
8:29
how much I lose and 3X is just way way
8:33
too big for me dang it dang it that's so
8:37
good should I ask if they have any more
8:38
in the back should I be that guy I
8:40
commend I really highly approve of the
8:42
Mickey Car Wash shirt over here and all
8:45
the new Hollywood studio shirts look at
8:47
this these are all like really really
8:50
really good this right here this is
8:52
brand i' never seen that before I've
8:54
never seen that one before and I've
8:56
never seen this one before
8:59
and I asked if they had any other sizes
9:01
and that's all they got left so if
9:03
you're a 3X or a small get you the
9:06
Gertie shirt also new and I feel like
9:08
this has my name all over it that's
9:10
right goofy you know what I mean because
9:12
it's a baseball shirt says never misses
9:14
a hit most of the time looks like
9:17
there's quite a few different sizes now
9:19
I could buy this let's say I bought this
9:20
in a large and again if I drop some
9:23
weight I could probably cram myself into
9:25
it they do have large over here an extra
9:29
large I could probably squeeze into now
9:31
but a large would definitely take some
9:33
uh definitely take some work to get the
9:35
weight off to fit into a large but I I
9:38
really like that shirt I'm going to
9:39
think about it while I'm in here and
9:41
maybe on the way out get a get get the
9:44
goofy shirt and it should be getting
9:45
pretty close to Golden hour some they
9:47
call it magic hour but golden hour
9:49
should be rearing its head pretty soon
9:50
which is around that time of dusk when
9:52
the sun is just kind of glimmering and
9:54
golden you kind of get that time frame
9:55
walking up on the Chinese doesn't really
9:57
seem to be a whole heck of a lot of
9:58
people here at the moment walked over
10:00
here to the former animation Courtyard
10:02
where they have just announced a few
10:03
days ago that they are in fact bringing
10:05
the little mermaid show back I kind of
10:07
had my hesitations and doubts a little
10:09
bit when you didn't really hear anything
10:10
over the last year but soon the the
10:13
signage will all be going back up and
10:14
they will have a show in here soon me
10:16
wonder the plethora of squirrels that
10:18
have been residing in this area are
10:19
going to have to going to have to
10:21
relocate you're going to have to go over
10:22
here into these Hedges squirrels you
10:23
can't be standing in the walkway I was
10:25
looking on the My Disney Experience app
10:27
Slinky Dog is only a 40-minute waight is
10:30
rarely under an hours the fact that it's
10:32
40 minutes makes me think it might even
10:34
be less does it have a single Rider line
10:36
on it there's only one way to find out
10:39
walk up there and see looking at it from
10:41
here it does look like a true 40 and not
10:43
seeing a single there's lightning Ling
10:45
and stand by 40 I'm seeing the crowd
10:47
over there it probably is a true 40
10:48
which Honestly though not too bad but
10:50
we'll see how it goes throughout the
10:51
course of the night I was walking in I
10:52
noticed they doing an all or an after
10:55
hours event tonight so the weight times
10:57
might get a little busier as people come
10:58
in for that so
11:00
oh there black Spire over there you can
11:02
see black Spire Outpost off in the
11:04
distance there this is that cuss before
11:06
the after hour the event starts though
11:08
all right I asked no single rider for
11:10
Slinky Dog I don't know why I thought
11:13
there would be but there's not check out
11:14
that nice little view there of Buzz with
11:16
the light with the little not lighting
11:18
but the light striking over his shoulder
11:20
there through the cloud something hello

11:46
greetings civilians hello good to see

season of the force
12:03
event looks pretty awesome kind of wish
12:06
they do something like that
12:08
here I will
12:10
say seems like this battoo doesn't get
12:13
as much of the fun stuff when it comes
12:16
to Star Wars you know the extra special
12:18
stuff that Anaheim does I man I go to
12:20
Anaheim all the time too so it's not
12:22
that big of a deal but I just be kind of
12:23
nice of
12:25
wdw kind of beefed up there Star Wars
12:28
land Batu e little more every once in a
12:30
while last time I was in Doc andar he
12:33
was resting he was behind a tarp but now
12:36
he's back to doing his inventory over
12:39
here doc onar count doing a little
12:41
counting you don't want to speak too too
12:44
loudly loudly because he'll lose his
12:45
train of thought and he'll
12:48
miscount but I
12:52
love love how he's just in here you know
12:55
a lot of people who own businesses that
12:57
have they named after them they're not
12:58
in there doing getting getting their
13:00
elbows dirty getting to the nitty-gritty
13:02
and taking care of business but he's
13:04
still counting make sure everything is
13:06

something's not adding up
13:32
doc I see your finger down there you're
13:35
doing you're doing the
13:36
counting yeah it is mellow out
13:56
meat ronto roers closes a little earlier
13:56
in the day you have to go to Docking Bay
13:58
to get a r to R but they still sell
14:24
them sometimes when you're deep into bat
14:24
especially if you're traveling Coast to
14:25
Coast quite a bit they all kind of start
14:27
look the same you don't realize what Co
14:29
post you're on now when you're in the
14:30
park you know what park you're in but
14:31
when you get back into the nitty-gritty
14:33
Star Wars land sometimes you're confused
14:35
but all you got to do is look up at the
14:37
sky I mean obviously a normal person
14:40
unlike me would know exactly what state
14:43
they're in whether it be California or
14:44
Florida but just saying sometimes you're
14:45
in you're back in here it all looks the
14:47
same but if you look up you do not see
14:49
clouds like this these formations
14:52
California that's a Florida
14:54
Cloud that's a Batu East
14:57
cloud don't get those in California
14:59
if you do very
15:01
rare I don't know where I'm going with
15:03
this but yeah look to look to the
15:14
sky there's that cloud
15:18
resistes down you guys have questions
15:20
about rning L please seek out one of the
15:22
cast members or myself for addition
15:23
information the weight time over here
15:25
look pretty short and I realize that
15:28
it's down technical
15:37
difficulties now heading out out of bat
15:37
and onto the former streets of America
15:40
just a glimmer of streets of America now
15:42
it's called Grand AB that's the right
15:44
here that's all this left of streets of
15:45
America rip rip still is pretty wild to
15:48
think that this is going to be
15:50
completely removed the building will
15:51
probably well I don't even know be
15:53
honest I don't know if the building
15:53
might be reused but mupp Vision 3D is on
15:55
his last days last last couple months
15:58
hoping some around roundabout way they
15:59
can do something with the piggy
16:02
sculpture here in the fountain I really
16:04
hope that piggy is salvaged and utilized
16:07
in some facet hope they put this in the
16:09
archives or something or maybe move it
16:11
elsewhere then again the splash fountain
16:13
that was using in the Tom Hanks film
16:14
Splash that was that's gone forever I
16:16
got to pick up my 3D glasses
16:20
3D they're
16:23
tourists what do they know they're
16:25
tourists it's going to be interesting
16:27
not seeing any of the stuff in here
16:29
likeit like Kermit rocking out look at
16:32
this almost like a Springstein pose I
16:34
think it's supposed to be a I think it's
16:36
supposed to be Springstein it's
16:54
Kermit and their Buddies thank you and
16:54
enjoy the show
17:01
what's going to happen to all these
17:01
props like the pigs in
17:07
space all these soldiers that are even
17:07
in the
17:08
show they in fireworks
17:12
scene that's as far as I know that's a
17:15
screen used prop from the mo I mean I
17:17
don't maybe they did a recreation but I
17:20
mean I would assume that's what that is
17:23
as well as these right
17:46
those I'm really sad Muppet Visions
17:46
going
17:50
away I'm also I'm really excited about
17:50
the Muppets or the Monsters Inc section
17:54
that's going to be rearing its head but
17:57
yeah I this is the last thing Jim Henson
18:00
ever worked on before he passed away
18:02
crowly present M Vision 3D J I got the
18:08
vacuum out I got the vacuum
18:15
out speed is about to come out there he
18:16
is there he is there's
18:17
speeded from a
18:20
distance I'm wait don't
18:25
shoot look out
18:57
stupid oh coming out the side there too
18:57
I never noticed that before we surrender
18:59
we surrender only going to be very
19:02
bizarre when Muppet Vision 3D does not
19:04
exist at Hollywood Studios anymore this
19:06
like a staple for sure definitely a
19:08
staple of this back little area but
19:11
can't stop progress I learned anything
19:12
about the Disney Corporation and Disney
19:14
Parks everything has an end well not
19:17
everything but a good percentage of
19:18
things will eventually come doing in and
19:20
new things moving forward so that's just
19:23
kind of just kind of how it is pizza
19:25
Rizzo also it's also going to be closing
19:28
as well well and changing this is a
19:30
pretty good time of the eve to be
19:32
walking around you got the clouds up
19:34
here you got the haze of the sunset very
19:37
very nice very nice enjoyable the sun's
19:39
not pounding down upon my head on my
19:43
neck which is really good feels good out
19:46
feels good out right now I like clouds
19:48
look actually really really interesting
19:51
right almost looks like it's about to
19:53
storm but it's not going to storm a lot
19:56
of cumula nimbus going on up there with
19:58
the light kind of kind of shading
20:01
through over here under the under the
20:04
glimmer of the Chinese Theater Florida
20:06
version that stinks runaways down too
20:08
runaway is also down I don't know if
20:10
it's true or not but it says a half hour
20:12
half hour waight tops for Hollywood
20:14
Tower I got to head over there and see a
20:15
half hour for Hollywood Tower take I'll
20:17
take it I'll Cru I'll take a take a turn
20:19
here off of Hollywood Boulevard onto
20:21
Sunset and head directly that direction
20:24
you got the glimmer of Nightfall about
20:26
to be happening you got the balloon
20:29
there all illuminated and going to walk
20:32
right down Sunset Boulevard a recreation
20:35
of Sunset Boulevard I just don't want to
20:36
I don't keep reiterating the fact that
20:38
it is really nice out right now it's
20:39
been very toasty the last few days
20:41
during the day now that the sun is down
20:43
it is really Pleasant and enjoyable I
20:46
just want to just keep driving that
20:48
point home just want to keep driving
20:50
that point home it's also nice I love
20:51
walking around here at night with all
20:52
the neon illuminated it's just such a
20:54
cool such a cool place to walk around
20:56
I'm kind of curious what the actual way
20:58
time will be here in the corner of
21:00
sunset in go which is where go Gulch is
21:03
I know cuz I used to live in Hollywood
21:05
go Gulch is
21:07
where is that same Corner go Gul right
21:10
there where rock and roll Denny's is
21:12
which is also right next to the entrance
21:14
to rock and roller coaster how
21:16
interesting is that if you go to the
21:18
real Sunset and go you got the you got
21:21
the go Studios G gch and you also have
21:25
rock and roll Denny say 25 minutes which
21:28
really is yes it it really does not get
21:31
much better than a 25-minute standby
21:33
weight it might even be shorter than
21:35
that 25 minutes to drop in to the
21:38
Hollywood Tower see how the lights are
21:40
kind of like drifting see this say
21:41
Hollywood Tower Hotel you got the HT
21:45
right there and then it's going to kind
21:46
of like it's going to kind of like morph
21:48
itself through so you can see the other
21:50
name at some point it's going to
21:52
probably change into the other name it's
21:53
trying but it's just taking a while it
21:55
knows that I am filming it and it's
21:57
being very very difficult to be seen
21:59
we got the there we go Twilight Zone
22:01
Tower there it is you can see it right
22:03
there Twilight Zone okay took a minute
22:05
took a minute I heading in yeah it seems
22:07
like it's going to be probably just
22:09
about what it says which is when I'm
22:11
going to check in over here at the desk
22:12
and then I'm going to drop in first you
22:14
check in underneath the chandeliers that
22:17
are full of spiderwebs and then uh and
22:20
then drop in so you check in first and
22:22
then drop in right there's no one
22:24

26:34
crazy see the parking lot over

lightning it's beautiful but scary
27:11
on
27:12
lightning look at

that it's interesting there's not really
27:18
