0:03 Welcome everyone. Adam Woo here coming
0:03 to you from Westchester, California,
0:05 just outside Los Angeles International
0:07 Airport. LAX to you and I and other
0:11 people who like to refer to it as the
0:13 shorter version, the threeletter version
0:16 of Los Angeles International Airport.
0:18 Why is it called LAX when it's Los
0:20 Angeles International Airport? I've
0:22 asked this question before. You guys
0:24 have answered it. I am drawing a blank
0:27 on what the answer is, so you'll have to
0:29 remind me again. It's my second channel,
0:33 daily vlog channel. It's the Daily Woo,
0:36 coming to you from the corner of
0:38 Westchester Parkway and of course Sepul
0:41 Vita Boulevard, which you can see that
0:44 sign in the background right underneath
0:46 the forefront of this. And we are very
0:49 close to Los Angeles and very close to
0:52 Hollywood. It's all kind of in the same
0:54 little area. As far as the crow flies or
0:58 the heavy humongous crows over at Los
1:01 Angeles International Airport, it's all
1:04 kind of in the same vicinity. So, when
1:06 we're talking about Hollywood in Los
1:08 Angeles, we're talking about the movie
1:11 mecca. And one of the movie meccas is
1:13 right here. At least a former movie
1:15 mecca. I'm talking about the Paradise
1:18 Building, which at one time was actually
1:21 the former Paradise Theater, a classic
1:26 awesome place. This building is actually
1:29 a structure from the 1950s. It actually
1:32 opened in 1950. It was open for about
1:34 two decades, a decade and a half, 15 to
1:37 20 years. A lot of history came through
1:39 here. A lot of movie stars came through
1:41 and a lot a lot I can't talk. A lot of
1:45 artifacts still remain on the property
1:49 even though to the untrained eye. You
1:52 would not actually think there would be
1:54 any sort of historical significance left
1:58 here other than memories. But do not be
2:00 fooled by this awesome 1950s facade.
2:04 Don't let it deceive you because there
2:07 are
2:09 mmentotos of Hollywood goodness right
2:12 there on the
2:15 ground. We should take a closer look,
2:18 shouldn't we? Yes, we should. I almost
2:21 did the intro for the second time. Maybe
2:23 I should cuz sometimes I forget it in
2:25 the other vlog. So, doing it twice would
2:28 not hurt. It's my second channel. Daily
2:30 vlog channel. It's the second intro in
2:33 the second daily vlog channel. Second
2:35 channel daily vlog channel. It's the
2:37 daily woo. I am incoherent at the moment
2:40 and overly excited because there
2:46 fragments of Hollywood history
2:49 underneath this 1950 to
2:53 1960 floor facade, if you will.
3:00 Look at all these. What are you looking
3:02 at exactly? These are time capsules.
3:07 Time capsules of former Academy
3:11 Awardwinning movies, Oscar
3:14 awardwinning movies. In fact, look at
3:17 this one.
3:20 Sealed herein are momentos of Academy
3:23 Award motion picture art and scientist
3:25 awards science awards for 1957. What
3:29 movie? The bridge on the river koi
3:32 starring Alec Guinness. Do you know what
3:35 other movie Alec Guinness was in? You
3:37 probably will be able to figure it out.
3:39 One of the biggest pop culture movies of
3:41 all time. Alec Guinness who was in the
3:43 bridge on the river Koi was actually in
3:46 as well. And there are mmentotos,
3:49 fragments of goodness right underneath
3:51 there. And they've been there since
3:55 1957. And right over here, another
3:58 momento for the moving movie Gei. GI GI.
4:03 Am I pronouncing that right? Momentos
4:05 from that.
4:07 1958. Right over here. Momentos from
4:09 around the world in 80 days. 1956.
4:14 So all of these time capsules were
4:16 placed here so many decades ago in the
4:19 50s
4:21 1954 on the waterfront starring that
4:24 classic actor Marlon Brando. Sealed
4:28 herein are momentos from the Academy of
4:31 Motion Picture Art and Science Awards
4:33 1954 on the waterfront. Think about
4:37 that. Marlon Brando artifacts are buried
4:40 right there in the ground, forgotten
4:42 about by almost everyone. Lawrence of
4:55 Arabia, the 1952 Greatest Show on Earth
4:55 by Cecil
4:58 Bil. That's a classic old school
5:00 director that a lot of people hail as
5:03 one of the the forerunners in director
5:06 history. People think Cecil be Deill.
5:08 That's a massive director name right
5:10 here at the Paradise building. The old
5:13 Paradise Theater. My Fair
5:21 Lady. An American in Paris. This one's
5:21 been here since
5:28 1951. Oliver
5:30 1968. Ben Her 1959.
5:35 All About Eve,
5:43 1950. In the heat of the night,
5:43 1967. So many incredible movies,
5:47 artifacts. And here's the question I'm
5:49 going to pose to you. What is under the
5:52 ground? What sort of artifacts from all
5:55 these movies over an entire decade were
5:58 placed here and then paved over and then
6:01 this decorative rock at a later date was
6:04 added over the top of it. And when are
6:07 they going to dig this stuff up? Or is
6:10 it just going to be completely forgotten
6:12 about? History as it goes on and on and
6:15 on. People will lose interest. Will
6:18 people forget that these artifacts are
6:21 right here in the ground in Westchester,
6:27 California? Pretty interesting. Hope you
6:29 guys like this vlog. Have a great day.
6:31 You can hear the airplanes flying
6:33 overhead. I want to try to do more vlogs
6:35 around Los Angeles and Hollywood. Give
6:38 me time. I will be out here for a while.
6:40 I know I've done a lot of stuff down in
6:41 Orange County near Anaheim in that area,
6:44 Buena Park, but I'm working my way up
6:47 upward bound, if you will, into
6:50 Hollywood. A lot of movie history that I
6:52 want to cover through vlogs and main
6:54 channel stuff. Thanks for joining me on
6:55 these unedited vlogs every day and a
6:57 vlog that I like to call the Daily Woo.
6:59 That's me, Adam the Woo. I do a vlog
7:01 every day that's unedited. I put it on
7:03 my Daily Woo channel, but I also have a
7:05 main channel. Hopefully, you subscribe
7:07 to both. If you haven't, please do. Tell
7:10 your friends, tell your enemies, tell
7:12 your family, or if those things are
7:14 combined, then tell everyone. And I'll
7:17 leave you with one last momento, which
7:19 I've already showed you already. Giji,
7:22 how do you pronounce that? GI GI. Is
7:24 that pronounced giggy or is it
7:26 pronounced GI? I am not completely sure.
7:33 Ernest Borgny 1955.
7:39 Also, see if you guys can dig up some
7:39 sort of research online. You can figure
7:41 out what is buried underneath here. Help
7:44 me out by leaving some comments down
7:45 below. What is buried beneath my
7:48 flipflops? That's right, flip
7:51 flops. Nothing better than trouncing
7:54 around Southern California in flipflops.
7:57 All right, I'm going to let you guys go.
7:59 Hope you guys are having a great day,
8:00 great weekend. Hopefully everything is
8:03 working out wonderfully in your favor
8:06 every day. Not only today on this
8:07 wonderful weekend day, but also every
8:10 day. I love you guys. Seriously.
8:14 Goodbye.
