inside and still walk around the castle
5:36
because there it still is people there's
5:38
still people in there waiting for it to
5:39
go back up so we can either come back to

9:37
of all the the items that are all
9:39
through here everything from salads meat
9:42
cheeses hummus little snack crackers

10:15
down in here some good shrimp some
10:17
potatoes i'm gonna go back for seconds
10:19
because this is this is unlimited
10:22
i am definitely enjoying this experience
10:24
the only thing i would probably change
10:26
about it is i would prefer not to really
10:29
go on any rides and just do all back lot
10:33
but that's not part of the deal it's
10:34
like three quarters in the park and a
10:36
quarter of the time besides eating on
10:39
the back if it was for me
10:41
you know loving the movie history and
10:42
all that i would want eight full hours
10:45
not even eating you want to be on the
10:47
back lot looking at history but that's
10:48
just me not everyone not everyone
10:51
thinks that way
10:52
for example if they had one of these
10:54
experiences that you could customize
10:57
i would pay for that 100 me i paid for
10:58
this too but if they had one
11:01
that you could just say you know what
11:02
i'm an annual pass holder i'm here a lot
11:04
i really want to go on the rides can i
11:06
just double down
11:07
on the history of the back back lot
11:10
sign me up for that that would be that
11:11
would be the only thing i would i would
11:14
say that i would that i would prefer
11:17
what'd you end up getting
11:20
um
11:21
chicken tender mac and cheese mashed
11:23
potatoes and i think the
11:26
tenderloin there's so much to choose
11:28
from it's like i think i have to go back
11:29
for some seconds okay i went for seconds
11:31
i know i'm eating more than normal but
11:33
you know what this is i will say it's a
11:35
win in rome moment it's a win at
11:36
universal vip moment
11:39
when what
11:40
when
11:42
rouge moment i like that you got seconds
11:44

just now finally getting onto the back
13:29
lot which i'm very excited about giving
13:31
a time frame because i'm curious to see
13:32
how long i'll be back therefore and not
13:34
taking the regular tram i'm going to be
13:36
taking the trolley that's up these
13:39
stairs
13:40
right up here all right this is the bus
13:43
right here
13:44
this came on to us knows who i am i'm
13:46
tim hi it looks like our tour is meeting
13:49
up with another chore that's getting on
13:52
the same page for your vip movie studio
13:55
experience
13:56
but these pieces belong to some of the
13:58
biggest stars in hollywood people like
13:59
doris dave always wanted to be able to
14:01
go down into antelope these were
14:03
dressing rooms it's very difficult to
14:05
get in there right down that hill
14:07
i want to go into emblem one day so
14:09
they're not off the spaces
14:11
now very famous officer left-hand side
14:13
number 5195 you see the famous
14:15
silhouette of the former occupant alfred
14:17
kitchen there's a post-production office
14:19
attached to it so that way you could
14:21
film inside the soundstage walk it
14:22
across the way and begin editing it
14:24
practically immediately
14:25
now the first thing that filmed in there
14:27
was actually hairspray live back uh 2016
14:30
the patty vallio at the time they were
14:32
inside the permits or the courtney
14:34
collins show that was all done in there
14:36
and then during the commercial breaks
14:37
they would run outside get into the golf
14:38
carts and drive out here to our
14:40
metropolitan sets for the outdoors texas
14:42
driving over and getting out and walking
14:45
around this area once we do you can
14:47
leave your bags on board we just do ass
14:49
set it beneath your seat all right don't
14:51
leave it on your seat because it's going
14:52
to probably slide out we don't want to
14:54
lose anything out there if you want to
14:56
grab a bottle of water we'll open this
14:58
thing up and feel free and grab it and
14:59
when we do exit watch this
15:17
i haven't been back here in so long i
15:17
remember when the artist was painting
15:19
this over here
15:21
and of course a lot of this lot has been
15:22
closed for a long time
15:24
it's
15:32
oh it's leaving
15:32
i would be perfectly content if that
15:34
thing just left and i could stay back
15:36
here all day
15:39
from the original post along to the
15:40
metropolitan sense everyone as you can
15:42
see we have new york right here a little
15:44
bit different than the real new york two
15:46
years in new york city i've never been
15:48
what's the biggest difference that you
15:49
can see on our street than the real new
15:51
york people no car people yeah no cars
15:53
no people right that's one of the main
15:55
reasons why you want to film here rather
15:57
than the real city i don't know if
15:58
they're going to let us go over there
16:00
but back to the future hill valley is
16:02
just around this corner i gotta check
16:05
this out doc yeah it's like right around
16:07
here i don't know if they're gonna let
16:08
me go back there i really hope they're
16:09
gonna take us back there because that's
16:11
like
16:12
oh yeah and you can see this is two
16:13
combined groups on that one
16:16
that one tram
16:17
and there's another opening over here
16:19
that i really want to walk through i
16:21
just i'm kind of wondering if they're
16:23
even going to let us back here but right
16:24
over there is the town square
16:27
see right over there the skateboard
16:29
chase the manure
16:31
oh i even i think maybe the lion estate
16:33
signs used to be over there too for a
16:34
while and there was a big fire out here
16:36
so lou's
16:37
which was on that very corner down there
16:39
on the left
16:41
has burned down and fun fact the alley
16:46
that old biff is hiding in and back to
16:48
future part two used to be right here
16:50
and there was a window with a shop that
16:52
had a roger rabbit and the almanac and
16:54
all that in that used to be right here
16:56
that same alley indoor was on the very
16:59
first episode of the twilight zone where
17:01
there was no one left
17:03
no one left with the one guy
17:05
and it was full of mannequins watch both
17:07
watch back to the future in the first
17:09
twilight zone the same alley that old
17:11
biff comes out of was used in the first
17:13
twilight zone episode fun fact i noticed
17:15
that because i recently watched that
17:17
first first episode okay i just asked
17:19
the guy he said i can't walk all the way
17:20
over there but i can go over here and
17:22
just get a glimpse
17:24
right here mr sandman
17:26
right over here this is also where jaws
17:28
came out shark still looks fake and the
17:30
sequel lose over here
17:33
so awesome the manure truck
17:36
biff hates manure and then of course 88
17:39
miles an hour here the climax lightning
17:41
bolt strikes
17:43
we're not allowed back there though so
17:45
thankfully the guy let me just go over
17:46
and get a peek that's disappointing but
17:48
yeah it is what it
18:01
that is up the land he runs outside in
18:01
1940s you are for this rjc car
18:10
now the lab was a set constructed inside
18:10
of a studio in the uk
18:17
i think and then they canceled it and
18:17
then nbc's like we want to finish this
18:18
out so that's what they did i want to
18:20
point out this
18:22
i don't know what the trust is for it
18:24
just went up today
18:26
but
18:41
this is also in one of my favorite
18:41
christmas movies home alone to los
18:44
angeles
18:49
when kevin's in new york he has one
18:49
member of his family that he knows lives
18:51
there his uncle his uncle and these
18:53
browns are departments you see the
18:55
construction tube going up to the roof
18:57
he ends up throwing the bricks down and
18:58
joe
18:59
yeah that's him coming out here coats
19:01
it's supposed to be all cold it was like
19:03
85 degrees out he's sweating bullets
19:05
right
19:06
gives him his grumpy attitude and i'm
19:08
just going to peek around here
19:10
the delorean does that climactic scene
19:18
driving in
19:18
ah
19:19
marty a dock over there
19:22
once the delorean hits
19:24
the lightning strike goes down
19:26
everything will be fine
19:31
man that's cool i think it's weird as
19:31
they built this building here so you
19:32
never get that view of the mountains
19:34
with griffith park anymore
19:36
those days are over
19:47
thanks tim for showing us that uh around
19:47
still street i saw a lot of you taking
19:49
pictures in front of the steps in front
19:51
of the door uh some of you were doing
19:53
some pretty cool poses and trial i did
19:56
like a different time period which we
19:57
will do uh sometimes to make it look
19:59
like the 70s just add vintage cars from
20:02
that time period and just like that
20:04
whatever that frame when we're looking
20:06
through that camera lens we like to
20:07
manipulate that frame to make you think
20:09
where we are we want to control what you
20:11
see and what you hear in productions all
20:13
these lights on us any vehicle on screen
20:16
we call that a picture card called the
20:18
left-hand buttons inside they're coming
20:19
up
20:20
we have famous picture cards this year
20:28
now some of these are just shelves not
20:28
real cars but we do have the real car
20:31
that is used as the hero car and that's
20:33
what we use that for the close-ups but
20:35
for example the top select ferrari
20:37
that's actually just a shell with a
20:39
volkswagen added glass that's cgi from a
20:42
computer generated
20:44
take a close look at the tank there that
20:46
is not a real tank you don't want to
20:47
take that into battle uh that's made
20:50
mostly
20:51
plywood vehicles before easily replaced
21:01
now if you look at the left here this
21:01
mobile ad unit
21:02
is not made of metal either it's made
21:04
mostly out of plywood you can see the uh
21:07
wood being selected there on the side uh
21:09
but we add metal sound effects to make
21:11
you think of sticky today but that might
21:13
change it a bit
21:15
okay so everybody here
21:17
thank you
21:18
two things when i see this i think of a
21:20
lot lynch lives
21:23
when the guy's running away from the
21:24
bible theme park
21:25
and the noah's ark flooding happens
21:28
and then also a lady gaga video where
21:31
she's standing right over there by that
21:32
cart
21:33
on that hill
21:41
you get a lot of rain
21:41
brace yourself
22:00
you can't outrun the wolfie
22:00
and uh we're gonna cross the border from
22:02
old mexico and the old west this is
22:05
where we filmed many of our western
22:07
europe
22:09
and this is where we filmed a lot of our
22:12
monster fields too we'll talk about
22:13
those i was crossing my fingers that we
22:15
would stop back
22:17
at the area where they did once upon a
22:18
time in hollywood the western sets
22:21
no such luck
22:23
only a couple you only get to stop at a
22:24
couple spots i'm guessing we already
22:25
stopped at one and probably a little
22:26
italy here and probably up where the
22:28
monster movies are made the court of
22:30
miracles they called it so a couple a
22:32
few other places i really wish i could
22:34
have gone to but just luck of the draw
22:37
now from what i remember from the
22:38
regular tram tour court of miracles on
22:40
the other side of these buildings
22:54
the satellite dishes over there this is
22:54
where the parting of the red sea
22:56
used to be if you did the tram tour a
22:58
long time ago years ago five ten years
22:59
ago you go through like the red sea over
23:01
here the water's still there
23:04
and you'd have the parting of all that
23:05
that has since been removed
23:08
we convince you we're in a different
23:10
location so flags we'll add different
23:12
flags to the sets we'll change the
23:14
languages on the signs so this was seen
23:16
as germany
23:17
spain
23:18
uh in fact uh a really important year
23:20
for us universal was 1930
23:23
that year was our first year winning our
23:25
academy award for best picture uh for
23:28
all quiet on the western front and so in
23:30
that movie it was how many here saw the
23:32
show the good place we talked about it
23:35
before okay okay so it's a it's a great
23:38
show it's on it was on nbc for four
23:40
seasons it was created by michael shurer
23:43
who brought you shows like brooklyn
23:44
nine-nine the office parks and rec he
23:46
was the writer in the office and if you
23:48
don't know what he looks like i'm going
23:49
to give you a visual if you've seen the
23:51
office uh michael's sure he's the
23:54
one that played dwight's cousin mode
23:56
look at how running down
23:58
this over here is she ends up in the
24:00
good place wow
24:02
well
24:15
just saying that the running of the bull
24:15
sequence and city slickers was through
24:17
here as well
24:21
the roads were barricaded and they just
24:22
ran in one direction uh
24:24
one other running of the whole scene we
24:25
did was for night and day with tom
24:27
cruise
24:29
they had real bulls running through here
24:32
billy crystal daniel stern
24:34
we did a running sequence for
24:41
also a scene from one of the pirates of
24:41
caribbean movies was in here he's
24:42
explaining
24:43
johnny depp was hiding over in a little
24:46
alcove
24:47
courtyard right up here
24:54
so when then once the coast is clear he
24:54
goes from the alcove into that door uh
24:56
to meet orlando bloom's character for
24:58
the sword fights uh however if you open
25:01
that door you'll notice that there is
25:03
not much interior enough to film in
25:05
elaborate sport fights especially when
25:07
you need more space and room behind the
25:09
actors for the camera and crew and the
25:10
equipment so instead they filmed the
25:12
sword fight scene in a
25:15
soundstage sound stage good
25:17
very good yeah surely right here right
25:19
here's the court where
25:20
where the court of miracles used to be
25:22
there was a fire here too
25:24
but it was right in here so many classic
25:26
universal monster movies right here
25:28
the freaking court of miracles right
25:38
this is so historic for horror fans
25:38
hunchback
25:40
so lon chaney was really talented
25:42
because he stood out from a lot of other
25:44
silent films doing his own makeup that
25:46
was way before we had makeup artists
25:49
and he was so secretive of his makeup
25:51
skills that he wouldn't even hear his
25:53
songs
26:08
this is so dang cool
26:08
universal monster movie
26:10
mecca
26:18
so cool again
26:18
i believe there was a fire and this
26:19
might not be original could have been
26:23
i i don't know i don't know if 100
26:26
either way this is where the court of
26:28
miracles was just picture frankenstein
26:30
wolf man the mummy the invisible man all
26:33
right in here
26:46
no
26:46
the water being broke
27:09
millions of dollars over budget the crew
27:09
started to call moving flaws afterwards
27:11
we're going on national television
27:12
giving interviews saying i'm working on
27:13
this jaws movie for universal it's
27:15
horrible don't go see it i'm not going
27:16
to tell you who that was for
27:18
but here's the thing every day he would
27:20
turn over his footage to his editor for
27:22
another field she said no no you've got
27:24
something here you can't use a shark
27:26
that's fine get the illusion of the
27:27
shark like a fin cutting through the
27:29
water or the barrels being pulled under
27:30
or if you felt from the shark's
27:32
perspective going at the people it's
27:33
about to eat
27:34
she ended up winning an academy award
27:36
for editing jobs and because it took so
27:38
long to make they missed their original
27:40
release date of christmas day of 1974
27:42
they put you to the following summer it
27:44
was a perfect summer birds again the
27:45
biggest movie of all time only to be
27:47
outseeded by two years later his best
27:49
friend george lucas we actually get the
27:51
chance to pull down one of the most
27:52
famous streets of all town this is
27:55
colonial street better known as wisteria
27:57
lake or maybe this is desperate
27:59
yes now recently their desperate
28:02
household excuse me did film here during
28:04
their entire eight season run and they
28:05
had pretty much the most street lockdown
28:07
during that period of time
28:12
did any walking dead film here no most
28:12
people built in georgia
28:14
that's another great example a lot of
28:17
over the period of time a lot of filming
28:19
has left los angeles have gone to
28:21
different areas but guess what it's all
28:22
coming back so we're experiencing one of
28:24
the busiest times right now
28:26
now
28:27
these houses did long before desperate
28:30
housewives right this was also seen in
28:32
the 1980s movie the burbs but tom hanks
28:35
harry fisher in the 90s things like deep
28:37
impact small soldiers filmed up here
28:40
even this uh grey house once we come
28:41
around the corner it'll be on your right
28:43
hand side this was used in a 1950s movie
28:45
called bedtime for bonzo starring a
28:47
chimpanzee named bonzo and warner
28:49
brothers contract player ronald reagan
28:52
yeah he filmed the movie to the
28:54
right-hand side now take a look
28:56
this is just a shell four walls and a
28:58
roof really it's three walls of the roof
29:00
because you see the tree growing in the
29:01
backyard it's not growing in the
29:03
backyard it's growing out of the house
29:04
it's an endangered species we just built
29:06
the house around it
29:07
the yellow house is seen as davey's
29:09
house and never have i ever that's also
29:10
where the hardy boys live
29:13
and the lilac house on the right hand
29:14
side is the original monster home of the
29:16
tv show the monsters 1313 mockingbird
29:20
jimmy stewart filmed the movie harvey
29:21
with his invisible bunny friend under
29:22
the house on the right-hand side
29:25
why him with ryan grantham james franco
29:27
filmed out here this was a uh michigan
29:29
suburb in the snow or kiss landed a
29:32
helicopter down the middle of the street
29:34
and kids you'll love this one the dark
29:35
green house the left-hand side that's
29:37
where matlock lived all right
29:54
okay that's horrible okay that's
29:54
horrible
29:56
he's just helping that young lady to her
29:58
trunk okay um
30:00
norman
30:01
hi
30:03
what are you doing
30:04
no we've been parked here
30:18
they put a fence up here i think this
30:20
fist might be left over from hhn
30:27
i know the big wrecked airplane behind
30:27
me is awesome
30:28
but i'm more fascinated by this
30:46
beautiful
30:46
mother
30:55
it is neat to walk this is really neat
30:55
to be able to walk through this and
30:57
there's a regular tram coming through so
30:59
they have activated some of the smoke
31:01
effects
31:02
through here
31:05
pretty cool
31:11
wow
31:11
this is a real
31:12
airplane that they transported
31:14
over here for the set it was used in the
31:16
movie
31:40
decoration just like any other set
31:40
decorating section
31:42
that makes you think something happens
31:57
look at this there's like a hopscotch
31:58
set up here
32:10
hitchcock quarter history right there
32:10
and a wrecked airplane right there look
32:12
at that
32:43
and guys one of the most recent
32:44
productions we're going to use this
32:45
board is a movie called you're not
32:47
proposing are you starring tim jenkins
32:50
oh this is neat
32:51
this was the great outdoors house they
32:53
moved it over here
32:54
this used to be on the other over by
32:56
where the blue wall was
32:58
so this was used for a couple scenes
32:59
they had a real cabin elsewhere but they
33:02
also had another cabin
33:03
that they used for the great outdoors
33:06
john candy movie
33:08
used to be part of the jurassic park two
33:11
set
33:12
used to be back in here by this
33:14
by this area used to be right over here
33:16
they cleaned it up now and have like a
33:18
little park
33:20
it's pretty neat
33:21
yeah think about this right here
33:23
great outdoors
33:25
it's pretty awesome
33:34
nothing we can really talk about now
33:34
it's a bit of a mystery to us to tonight
33:36
but right beyond that construction you
33:39
see that large blue backdrop uh that's
33:41
one of the largest standing uh backdrops
33:44
we use this to add backgrounds with cgi
33:47
effects valley again we have water
33:49
brothers studios out there disney uh
33:52
which is also uh abc studios which is
33:54
owned by disney as well uh that mountain
33:56
that's mount lee that's where the
33:58
hollywood sign is right behind the
33:59
scenes
34:01
all right now getting off of the backlot
34:03
section at 5 15. oh they're putting this
34:05
down
34:06
put the window down 5 15.
34:09
you're keeping track
34:18
and the sun is just about to set at 6 53
34:18
park closes at seven
34:20
tonight
34:21
here on this monday
34:23
which probably correlates to how the
34:25
price was
34:32
as i stated earlier each of the vip
34:32
tours are different prices each day
34:33
today's was 359 dollars a person
34:38
as an annual pass holder
34:40
you have to really want to do it but i
34:42
think as
34:44
a non-annual pass holder i looked up the
34:47
tickets for front of the line and a day
34:49
ticket 209
34:51
so if you add on another 150
34:54
you get
34:55
the vip access you get to get out of the
34:58
tram walk around for a little bit on the
34:59
back lot and you get two meals
35:03
of really good food
35:04
and that's gonna do it for today the
35:06
temperature is dropped
35:08
what did you think what did you think
35:09
about your first vip experience at
35:10
universal hollywood i think it was worth
35:12
it i think it's really worth it i liked
35:14
it yeah i thought it was so cool got to
35:17
do every ride
35:19
and then anything we did not get with
35:21
our guide left us at simpson's we were
35:23
able to go
35:24
back on pets for a second time and the
35:26
food was great and we got to meet
35:28
lucille ball yeah that was pretty cool
35:30
which was great i was kind of hoping to
35:31
meet doc brown but he wasn't around
35:33
there i might do it again one day i
35:34
don't know when
35:35
but one day yeah
35:37
see the next video
35:39
the vlog
35:43
and i like at the top of griffith park
35:43
over there
35:44
backside of the hollywood sign the
35:47
wisdom tree still stands
35:56
and i'm also crossing my fingers for my
35:56
next vip tour whenever that is
35:59
i want to get up close to the clock
36:01
tower
36:03
that's why it was closed off doc's back
36:05
there
36:07
saving marty
36:09
at least in my mind he is
