TheDailyWoo - 249 (3/7/13) George Lucasville

0:04 Welcome everyone. Adam the Woo here.

0:04 That's a shuffle board court here in

0:06 Modesto, California. It's my second

0:09 channel, daily vlog channel. The daily

0:12 woo.

0:14 I'm in the town of Modesto, California.

0:16 Just like I reiterated, actually I'm

0:18 reiterating now. I first iterated over

0:21 there. Now I'm reiterating the fact that

0:23 I'm in Modesto, California. Standing

0:25 next to this massively cool looking

0:27 tree. There's a bus stop over there.

0:30 Some people staring at me. There's a guy

0:31 with a really large intense beard over

0:34 there watching me do the daily vlog

0:36 blog. Traffic is coming through here.

0:38 The hustle and bustle of California

0:40 lifestyle. Last night we had a show. It

0:43 was going to be near Reno Sparks,

0:45 Nevada. We actually had to cancel the

0:47 show cuz going over the California

0:49 mountains into Nevada, they actually

0:52 shut down the roads. The snow was so

0:54 intense and the ice. First, we had to

0:57 buy some chains. Like hundred something

0:58 dollars for chains for the tires. It

1:00 didn't matter if we had chains or not

1:02 because either way, they still didn't

1:03 let us go through. So, chains. We We

1:06 spent money on chains. We didn't even

1:07 need the chains. So, we still got the

1:09 chains. If you need some chains, leave a

1:11 comment below. Maybe you can buy some

1:13 chains. You can hang them around your

1:14 neck like Mr. Tea style. We don't need

1:16 snow chains anymore. There's no snow

1:18 right here in California. In Modesto,

1:20 California. Look at this sign. You can

1:22 choose which direction you go. I guess

1:24 Modesto is pretty much the circular

1:27 point or the starting point for which

1:29 way you could go. Left, right, or two

1:31 people can go straight. If you got four

1:33 of you, two of you guys can veer off.

1:35 The other two can go completely straight

1:36 forward. And what I want to go

1:38 completely straight forward to is this

1:39 little statue memoir and dedicated thing

1:44 that someone created. I'm trying to

1:45 think of the word. I can't even really

1:46 think of the word, but it's right over

1:48 here. George Lucas from Star Wars.

1:50 Everybody's seen Star Wars. You know,

1:52 R2-D2, C3PO, Jabba the Hut, all those

1:55 characters. Well, the guy who created

1:57 it, his name was George Lucas. You know

1:59 him, don't you? I don't. Anybody ever

2:00 met George Lucas? I wish I could meet

2:02 George Lucas cuz I love Star Wars. At

2:04 least the original three. The original

2:06 three are my favorite. All the prequels,

2:08 all the new stuff coming up. Not too

2:09 excited about, but I'll probably still

2:11 watch him anyway. But anyway, here's the

2:13 dedication to Mr. George Lucas right

2:15 here. We're in George Lucas Plaza. Look.

2:18 Look

2:20 right here. Look, George Lucas Plaza.

2:25 One of the first movies he ever did was

2:27 American Graffiti. It was about

2:29 basically a bunch of kids who used to

2:31 cruise around before the internet,

2:32 before vlogs and blogs and all that fun

2:35 stuff. People had really nothing to do.

2:37 It was a more innocent age. So, what

2:39 they would do is they get in their cars.

2:41 The cars were much much cooler and

2:43 unique in the traffic that's flowing by

2:45 here. So, here's a new car right there.

2:48 These were old cars. These are like in

2:49 the 1950s. Most people that are watching

2:52 this vlog blog probably weren't even

2:53 around in the 1950s. Some of you guys

2:55 may have been. Do you guys remember

2:56 cruising? Do some of you guys still

2:58 cruise? I wish I could cruise. But the

3:00 way gas is $4 a gallon. Who's going to

3:02 be cruising around? It doesn't even

3:04 matter if you want to cruise. All you

3:05 got to do is remember cruising. And the

3:07 way we're going to remember cruising is

3:09 by this statue. Look at this. This is

3:10 pretty awesome. It's dedicated to his

3:13 movie and the cruising culture, American

3:16 Graffiti. We have a little car here. We

3:18 have a tire down there, an impenetrable

3:21 metal tire. That thing's never going to

3:23 go flat. My tires go flat and your tires

3:25 go flat. The tread kind of wears off.

3:28 That tread's not going anywhere. Anyway,

3:30 we have the two characters here. I don't

3:32 think these are the characters from the

3:33 movie. I think it's just a dedication to

3:35 George Lucas. This is actually George

3:37 Lucas Plaza, which has now been taken

3:39 over by a Jack in the Box. A bunch of

3:41 red lights. More bling, less bucks. I

3:44 wonder if George Lucas wears any bling.

3:46 Anyway, here's a closeup of the the

3:48 characters here. Look at his eyes. He's

3:50 got creepy eyes. People are honking at

3:53 me. Everyone wants to know what I'm

3:54 doing over here filming the daily vlog

3:56 vlog that you're a part of. The thing

3:58 is, they can see me and they can wonder,

4:00 "What is that guy doing?" But they can't

4:01 hear my voice unless they actually watch

4:03 the videos and subscribe all around. And

4:05 none of these people are going to

4:06 subscribe. They're too busy driving and

4:08 cruising. Cruising. Yeah. Yeah. Remember

4:10 the video game Cruising USA? Has nothing

4:13 to do with the George Lucas movie. And

4:15 Harrison Ford was in that that George

4:16 Lucas movie. One of the first George

4:18 Lucas movies. He was in that old Ronnie

4:20 Howard. Remember Ronnie Howard? What

4:22 show was he in? Ron Howard. You guys

4:24 remember what Ron? He's a famous

4:25 director now. Well, what show was he

4:27 originally in? That's right. The Andy

4:28 Griffith show. I actually went to Andy

4:30 Griffith's hometown like a year ago.

4:32 That was pretty cool. And now I'm in

4:33 George Lucas's hometown of Modesto,

4:37 California. He pretty much pays a lot of

4:39 homage and a lot of respect to this

4:40 town. He was born here and he lived here

4:42 the first 20 years of his life. So

4:44 pretty much Star Wars, Empire Strikes

4:46 Back, Return of the Jedi, and all those

4:49 other hideous movies that came after,

4:51 way after all the first Fantastic

4:53 Awesome movies, they were all from here.

4:55 I love the first three movies. I

4:57 actually have a Star Wars tattoo right

4:58 here on this arm, but it's covered cuz

5:00 it's kind of chilly. It's actually

5:02 covered right there. See this? This is

5:04 my arm. Underneath that is a Star Wars

5:07 tattoo. I have the Death Star. So I have

5:09 a little I have a little Modesto Modesto

5:12 death star connection. That's all for

5:14 today. Make sure you subscribe. Check

5:15 down below for my t-shirts. Adam

5:19 I'm going to let you go. I'm going to go

5:20 meander with the locals. Some people

5:22 over there talking about business. Or

5:24 maybe they're talking about George

5:25 Lucas. Maybe they're discussing their

5:27 favorite George Lucas moment. Maybe

5:29 those guys over there met George Lucas.

5:31 I should go talk to them. See what kind

5:33 of George Lucas yarns they can spin for

5:35 me. I'm going to let you go. Subscribe

5:37 all around. I'm going to see you. I'm

5:39 going to see you tomorrow. I am.

5:41 Seriously, make sure you subscribe.

5:43 Don't you want to see me? You'd probably

5:44 rather see George Lucas. Maybe you

5:46 rather hang out with those statues.

5:47 Goodbye for now. From Modesto, Modesto,

5:51 California.

5:57 George Lucas

5:57 was here at one time. I need to end this

5:59 vlog. So goodbye.
