0:57

1:04
think 12 30 is the appointment to go in
1:07
it's an allotted time and it sells out
1:09
pretty quickly yeah yeah it's definitely
1:12
check in advance we have procured a
1:14
reservation so we're gonna head in there
1:16
we're just gonna kind of wander around
1:17
this area this whole area has a lot of
1:19
museums and stuff so we're gonna do a
1:21
couple at least at least two at least
1:22
peterson and the academy of arts and
1:24
science motion picture
1:26
the academy the academy museum inviting
1:29
you to join me and daphne
1:31
and i really like the architecture
1:33
of this building
1:35
and i'm walking past it because this is
1:37
a very interesting almost like a photo
1:39
op or an illusion of sorts
1:42
goes underneath
1:43
this big boulder
1:45
this little this rocks
1:48
because it was a rock
1:50
i was trying to describe this to you
1:52
that there was a floating rock here so
1:54
we drove by to go to parking like
1:55
where's the floating rock because from
1:57
ground level it does not look like it's
1:59
floating yeah think of the rocks and
2:00
pandora when you said floating rocks
2:02
okay i was like where how did i miss a
2:04
big floatie i'm not the best at
2:06
explaining that but yeah that's true
2:08
this is nothing like pandora but you're
2:11
not wrong look at this it's just like
2:13
teetering
2:14
on this little these little two little
2:16
pillars here trying to create the oh
2:18
you're holding it up there oh so strong
2:20
got one finger there oh hold on one
2:22
finger there okay move your hand i'm
2:24
just gonna hold it with my finger wow
2:26
very strong
2:28
like pop i had my spinach
2:30
it's been a while i had spinach i like
2:31
spinach but it's been a while so i
2:33
cannot
2:34
okay hold it hold it again
2:36
a little higher a little bit more whew
2:39
man my finger was starting to get like
2:40
it cramped up the rock is like it's held
2:43
up by some big heavy bolts
2:47
right there
2:49
you got these bolts on either side that
2:51
really clamp the rock to make sure it
2:52
does not fall
2:54
now california is prone to earthquakes
2:56
so this is probably not the best place
2:57
to stand
3:02
during an earthquake this would not be
3:03
the best place to be no but at least it
3:06
couldn't roll down or anything it just
3:07
plopped down that's true it's not gonna
3:09
yeah it won't roll up so it's not that's
3:11
it looks like they're building even more
3:12
stuff all these construction cranes over
3:15
here
3:16
probably wondering why all the
3:17
construction cranes are all around
3:20
very confused on
3:23
the progress that's happening around
3:36
and a common misconception is you ever
3:36
seen the last action hero with
3:39
arnold that's right
3:40
on the
3:42
that movie
3:44
anytime i go to the tar pits
3:47
very often it's like oh do you know the
3:49
filming locations from last action hero
3:51
were at these tar pits that is not true
3:53
they were built elsewhere they were not
3:55
filmed
3:56
in this tar lake
3:59
common misconception
4:01
they built some fake tar pits
4:10
it's a little warm out here today but
4:10
there is a nice little breeze not going
4:12
to be spending a lot of time outdoors a
4:13
lot of it's going to be spent indoors
4:16
but it's a nice day
4:18
they do have a oh it's moving it's
4:19
moving right there in the car oh
4:21
something just bubbled up over there too
4:23
gurgling up
4:25

4:27
assistance is
4:29
shifting back and forth
4:31
oh look at this one here is saying
4:34

4:42
doe is it the dome looking thing is that
4:44

5:00
and there are sections of the berlin
5:02
wall right here too
5:12

5:12
over there that i've seen
5:14

5:17
broad
5:19

like a few hundred at least the name of
5:35
it is urban light
5:36
2008 202 restored cast iron

5:47
of them
5:54
oh how much triple that wait there's
5:54
steps there

6:12
an upside down ice cream cone
6:14
with a face on this end
6:16
it's not more like a and also like a
6:18
gnome cap what would be your
6:20

6:24
okay
6:26
the broad contemporary art museum
6:29

6:32
very artistic looking across the road

that's a very artistic looking building
6:36
where they have all the the movie and
6:39
movie cars in there and because this
6:40
area is growing by leaps and bounds you
6:42
know for touristy things

judy garland worn in the wizard of oz
10:25
that is something else and the cowardly
10:28
lion's mane check that out that's the
10:30
real that's the real one he wore as well
10:32
as the witch's hat here
10:36
so iconic and here are dorothy gales
10:38
outfits one in black and white and one
10:40
in color and it was thought all the tin
10:42
man's costume was lost but this is the
10:44
oil can that's left over and the oil
10:47
really was chocolate syrup i never look
10:50
at this screen used oil can and take a
10:52
look at this all the munchkins over here
10:53
and here's the camera equipment right
10:55
there with the director
10:56
and crew on it but look here is that
10:58
piece of camera equipment the very same
11:00
one a lot different you can even see
11:02
inside a lot different these days you
11:04
can see in the inside the camera with
11:06
the reels there and everything look at
11:08
that number 15
11:10
with the wheels down here and you have
11:11
the grips over here pushing all across
11:13
the back end this was the first edition
11:14
of psycho owned by alfred hitchcock and
11:16
this was the typewriter used by the
11:18
screenwriter and here's some story
11:20
boards of the shower scene and this is
11:22
the outfit here that share war one year
11:25
and the very first one back in 1929 was
11:27
that the roosevelt hotel on hollywood
11:29
boulevard this oscar is from sunset
11:31
boulevard the classic billy wilder film
11:33
look at that this is the sled from
11:35
citizen kane this is rose rosebud and
11:38
reading the little placard there were
11:39
three of this is one of the three and
11:42
the only one that i've ever seen with my
11:43
own eyes in person here's a set of bruce
11:45
lee's nunchucks right here editing's a
11:47
lot easier now back then you had to use
11:49
this as a whole editing table inside
11:51
this room there is a
11:52
massive mount rushmore painting backdrop
11:56
kind of shows the perspective of how
11:57
they do
11:58
backdrops and whatnot look at that and
12:01
there are some photos from north by
12:02
northwest another
12:04
another hitchcock classic and
12:06
storyboards that used mount
12:08
rushmore as well so i'm wondering
12:12
was this he was this
12:14
from north by northwest or is an
12:16
interpretation of it
12:18
all right drawing the conclusion that it
12:20
was used in the film so this is
12:23
this is behind the diner saying here
12:26
and then
12:31
so that almost looks like the real
12:31
rushmore it's tough to tell so they kind
12:33
of that just shows the beauty of how all
12:36
this works and we got a photo we are now
12:39
officially in a hitchcock film
12:41
officially
12:42
up one level to level three
12:45
take a look above me
12:48
it is bruce the shark from jaws right
12:51
there wow there's a lot i'm seeing r2
12:54
over there i'm seeing e.t this is wild
12:57
this is the real e.t right here yeah
13:00
this is something else i am looking deep
13:02
into the eyes of the one and only that
13:05
spielberg's
13:06
extraterrestrial and yes this is the
13:08
real outfit worn by kenny baker as r2
13:12
and not to forget about
13:14
3po human cyborg relations not only the
13:18
scissor hands but the entire outfit worn
13:21
by johnny depp right here from edward
13:23
scissorhands filmed in loops for it i've
13:25
been to the neighborhood and all that
13:26
and i've been to the house so that's
13:27
pretty cool to see this and a miniature
13:29
set from batman returns the tim burton
13:31
sequel to the original batman michael
13:33
keaton and from the original that's
13:35
right i'm looking for sarah khanna i was
13:37
told she was here can i see her please
13:40
and from the dark crystal that maybe
13:41
kind of kind of kind of freaked me out
13:43
just a little bit the skeksis wait a
13:45
second is this a skeksi right over there
13:47
they have a skeksi here look at this
13:49
they have an actual skeksi this is
13:51
unbelievable i really like that jim
13:53
henson movie not quite the muppets you
13:55
know a little bit darker version of the
13:56
the muppets but it was uh wisconsin and
13:59
this is danny devito's nose and facial
14:01
features prop that went over his face in
14:04
batman returns and to exit out of this
14:06
room you actually go through a little
14:08
tunnel of credit sequences which is kind
14:10
of disorienting in a way so you exit out
14:13
of here and head out to the back of the
14:15
one level all right going up to the next
14:18
level and there is bruce
14:20
once again
14:25
bruce the shark
14:25
in all
14:26
its
14:28
glory
14:29
okay a little more specific i was
14:30
incorrect this was not in the movie it
14:32
is a full-scale model cast
14:35
from the original mole a little more
14:37
information here 25 foot fiberglass
14:40
model is the fourth and final great
14:42
white shark cast from the original mold
14:44
of jaws the three sharks used during
14:46
production deteriorated and were
14:48
destroyed
14:49
after filming making this one the only
14:52
surviving
14:53
model
14:55
casper display universal studios
14:56
hollywood shortly after the film's
14:57
release
14:58
back in
15:00
1990 according to this as well the film
15:03
was released years before but 1990 is
15:06
when the the cast mold
15:08
was taken off so that's about as close
15:10
as you can get to the original
15:22
got the teeth there
15:22
top portion of the mouth
15:24
looking into bruce's eyes
15:36
it's not every week that you get to see
15:36
bruce twice in two different forms we
15:38
gotta see
15:40
that's true we saw the we saw him pop
15:42
out of the water at the universal vip
15:43
tour
15:44
the backlot tour and then won this cast
15:47
from the original mold
15:49
oh bruce just keeps
15:51
looking over here just staring
15:54
just staring bruce and the pillars and
15:57
bridge on the fifth floor of the academy
15:58
museum are named in honor of ex
16:00
extraordinary women who achieved
16:02
significant firsts
16:03
in history
16:05
of cinema
16:18
yeah there it is barbara streisand
16:18
bridge going across
16:21
oh it feels good out here
16:28
wow you can see the hollywood sign from
16:28
here way off this is a great view from
16:30
up here holy cow
16:32
and the observatory downtown hollywood
16:35
all that over there this is an amazing
16:38
this right here is worth the price of a
16:39
mission alone look holy cow i mean
16:41
everything else is incredible this view
16:44
is something
16:45
there's that rock we walked under
16:48
that's the rock over there and then over
16:50
there
16:51
the iconic sign up on the side of the
16:53
hill way off in the distance the
16:55
griffith observatory
16:58
going across
17:00
kind of hazy and smoggy over there but
17:02
the wisdom tree on the far end of the
17:04
peak right in the center of the screen
17:08
kind of shifting across
17:10
looking at the landscape in the
17:12
hollywood hills
17:14
very beautiful
17:19
amazing view from up here
17:19
all right now over to the peterson auto
17:22
museum
17:24
from one museum to another
17:30
from the academy
17:30
to the peterson
17:32
now i have not been in here in years
17:35
we have a lot of cars in this museum
17:37
obviously it's an automobile museum this
17:39
is a pretty neat car here i could
17:41
picture myself behind the wheel of this
17:42
okay is this the a car they used to have
17:44
the a car here which was the hero car
17:46
from back to the future i'm guessing
17:48
this is it the door's not open to see
17:49
the a written on the side
17:51
but it might possibly be this just says
17:53
81 delorean time machine driven back to
17:56
the future back to future two and back
17:57
to future three okay so it's definitely
17:59
not the part one a car
18:01
maybe they move the a car it's no longer
18:05
interesting but this is a time machine
18:07
delorean
18:09
if it is the a-car they don't have any
18:10
statement saying that it does now this
18:12
gran torino was used in starsky and
18:15
hutch right here from 76 and the 89
18:20
batmobile
18:21
michael keaton
18:23
drove
18:24
i think there's a few of these
18:27
gonna guess this is screen used
18:29
the guy who designed this car was brook
18:31
stevens
18:32
not only designed this but also
18:35
the iconic oscar meyer weinermobile it
18:38
would be very difficult for me to
18:40
squeeze into this one this is called the
18:42
fuji cabin
18:44
and it is tiny and there are a few
