1:39
exist at walt disney world i could not
1:40
find one and then i found one online uh
1:44
in march
1:46
so pretty magical i just want to talk
1:47
about it cool
1:49
uh clock is having a monstrously good
1:50
time as he watches from the parks you're
1:53
not on main street
1:55
he said he was going to be on main
1:57
street oh is he going to go watch the
1:58
fireworks tisk tsk and that that thing
2:01
that we're going to talk about tonight

2:23
at that
2:24
i'm i'm learning yeah someday i should
2:27
script it out so i'm not just making it
2:28
up and you should never script it don't
2:30
script anything no that's the moral of
2:32
the story no that's the moral of depth
2:34
magic oh okay that is a moral of
2:37
something unless
2:38
it's a gloaming realm
2:40
then it's scripted yeah we don't trust
2:42
either then it's scripted uh maybe we
2:44
should have another one soon that'd be
2:46
kind of fun but uh all right let's move
2:48
into the week nighttime spectaculars are
2:50
back at the disneyland resort and with
2:52
that there are some new returning
2:53
favorites
2:54
and also some new things
2:59
we'll start with the main street
3:00
electrical parade which katie is singing
3:02
and probably is currently making its way
3:04
down the parade route as we speak
3:07
and uh you can see
3:09
elliot and friends and uh the big change
3:12
this year for the main street electrical
3:14
parade is the new grand finale which is
3:15
inspired by it's a small world and was
3:17
designed by ashley taylor a salute to
3:20
all worlds
3:21
but mostly the small ones
3:24
yes
3:25
i was curious where you're gonna end
3:26
that one um but
3:28
we are gonna watch it together so if you
3:29
do not wanna see what it looks like just
3:31
avert your eyes for like two minutes or
3:33
we'll just tell you when it's over
3:35
because there's no audio we're keeping
3:36
that secret yeah gotta keep some of the
3:39
the experience for seeing it either on
3:41
youtube or in the parks yeah but uh
3:43
we're gonna add it to the screen right
3:45
now hopefully you can see it like we can
3:48
and uh here is this beautiful new float
3:52
that is uh now making its way down uh
3:55
main street this is not live this is
3:57
from the preview currently
4:06
20 minutes later um but it does have i
4:09
love that it has at the beginning the
4:10
reference to the blue fairy uh-huh
4:13
which i think like that was one of the
4:14
things that like i feel like every time
4:17
the electrical parade comes back
4:19
something has changed it's true like one
4:22
time the blue fairy goes away or maybe
4:24
uh what's the name of the lion from bed
4:26
knobs and broomsticks like he was around
4:28
for a while and then he was gone and
4:30
then the clown was
4:31
gone yes um but now we have this and
4:34
we've got all of these characters
4:36
whether they're uh i think was brave i
4:38
saw hercules
4:39
um
4:40
uh coco tiana
4:44
i just said a name of a movie and the
4:45
name of character
4:46
up there
4:48
um
4:49
which one as you were watching it the
4:52
other night really jumped out at you
4:55
um are there any characters that you're
4:57
just like oh that's really funny i
4:58
watched it from this side that we are
5:00
currently watching it on
5:01
um i really like the only side i've seen
5:03
it from so far i really love tiana um
5:06
especially the way that her theme plays
5:07
into the music moana's up there did we
5:09
say that uh we didn't say moana i liked
5:11
her because she had the little sailboat
5:12
thing going also mirabelle is up there
5:15
um hercules was up there which was a fun
5:18
surprise too and they have like the
5:19
music going through this whole thing too
5:21
so you can kind of like it has all of
5:23
their different themes happening um and
5:25
i thought that was really fun and then
5:27
as you see the grand finale of the grand
5:29
finale
5:30
is a castle that's heavily inspired by
5:33
it's a small world which i love yes and
5:35
and i think one of the cool things about
5:37
all of this too is yes the lighting is a
5:39
little bit brighter than the rest of the
5:41
parade it seems like um but it also
5:43
changes like it does there's a
5:45
spectromagic moment where everything
5:47
goes white
5:49
and uh yeah nathan's mentioning that
5:51
tiana and moana got the most musical
5:52
love with two songs each yeah which is
5:54
great we should really make a list of
5:55
all of the songs i haven't done there is
5:58
going out there's going down the bayou
6:00
mm-hmm so we know for sure i believe dig
6:02
a little deeper is in there
6:04
how far i'll go is in there um go the
6:07
distance
6:09
is in there
6:10
i did not hear any in kanto so maybe i
6:13
missed it it hadn't been there it had to
6:16
have been there um i also heard some of
6:19
do you want to build a snowman for
6:22
frozen
6:23
um
6:24
yes there is
6:26
also there that's right um
6:29
yeah there's a lot of music and that's
6:32
it can either be oh it was
6:35
i didn't hear it
6:37
okay i i mean it's another reason to
6:38
watch it um
6:40
and there's a lot going on and you can
6:43
either see that as a good thing or a bad
6:44
thing i thought it was a good thing i
6:46
think it's really fun i think there's a
6:47
lot to see
6:48
um i love the spectrum magic moment that
6:51
you were talking about where it all goes
6:53
white and then it goes colorful again um
6:56
really great really fun wouldn't it be
6:58
amazing if they did a mashup parade for
7:00
walt disney world that was a mix between
7:03
main street electrical parade and
7:05
spectra magic and it went back and forth
7:07
between the two themes and
7:09
and like when it was doing main street
7:10
electrical parade stuff it would have
7:12
that step that music and then it all
7:14
goes white and suddenly the spectromagic
7:16
march goes it would totally change the
7:18
temple i think but um
7:20
but i think it'd be hilarious huh yeah i
7:23
don't know it just popped into my head
7:25
so it's a good pop
7:26
is it yeah okay i still wanna
7:29
um so what do you think overall we liked
7:31
the grand finale i think was the the
7:34
grand answer which i actually
7:36
i avoided watching it on video so i
7:38
could watch it in person for the first
7:39
time and i had seen pictures um but i
7:42
did not wanna watch a video i was like
7:43
let me
7:45
which i think is better like unless
7:47
unless you don't have a way to go watch
7:48
it in person which a lot of people is
7:50
that way
7:51
well and then watching it in video after
7:55
it's
7:56
it doesn't capture
7:58
the essence or the size no like i
8:00
actually felt in some ways this feels
8:02
bigger than when it was the salute to
8:04
america um what
8:06
yes didn't it it just felt longer to me
8:09
i was joking that it was salute to
8:11
america you know uh yes uh although i
8:14
will say
8:15
the one thing this float could not do
8:17
for me
8:18
that a salute to america could
8:21
is high kicks
8:22
i actually no high kicks i completely
8:25
agree with you on that and
8:27
i would have liked to have seen more
8:31
either characters or parade performers
8:34
around the flow because i think you
8:35
could have done something there that
8:38
i'm sure it saved some money not having
8:40
as many dancers but um
8:43
but i do think you could have
8:46
filled in the area around it and that
8:48
probably would have made it even more
8:50
magical and there's kind of those breaks
8:52
in between the bacon
8:54
you can do that yep i think i think that
8:56
would have been fun and it would have
8:57
been a nice salute to the past
8:59
yeah i just i just missed the high kicks
9:01
because the high kicks
9:02
were i so the last time ep was around
9:07
i watched it a whole lot that summer
9:10
um
9:11
which was funny somebody said that it
9:12
was like how many times have you seen me
9:13
shoot electrical parade and i was like a
9:14
lot a lot of times um when you go
9:17
through my camera roll specifically like
9:18
the 2019 era it's just pictures of um
9:22
mainstream electrical parade but i
9:24
always just like watched in fascination
9:26
for the high kicks because it's it's
9:28
really hard to shoot that at night
9:29
because
9:31
all the things that go into getting a
9:32
nightmare sad part is i actually have
9:34
the camera and the lens now that could
9:37
get those
9:38
like and now that i haven't dialed it in
9:40
so i basically got to shoot
9:42
for photography on friday night i saw it
9:45
on wednesday night but i was doing
9:47
everything um filming and so not so much
9:50
but um
9:52
but friday and i was sitting on the
9:53
ground so i was just not in the right
9:55
place and yeah it was kind of hard to do
9:57
stuff from down there but um i want to
9:59
give it a shot and try to get some stuff
10:00
uh that that
10:03
that i know i could do now um and the
10:05
nathan's right the rope carriers did
10:07
have a pretty good choreography they did
10:10
and honestly just carry it up the sides
10:11
like it was put six more people doing
10:14
the same or similar questions or more
10:16
people even like um because it was
10:18
energetic it wasn't lit up though i
10:20
would like to have seen them be lit up
10:21
free
10:22
rope lit up because i just felt like you
10:24
could you could
10:26
if they're gonna work that hard you
10:27
should be seeing that's true
10:28
i will say though it was fun to see rope
10:30
with that much choreography yeah because
10:32
traditionally we kind of see ropes like
10:33
we're having fun they do like step
10:35
touches
10:36
or um
10:38
actually what i was thinking um because
10:40
a lot of a lot of mainstream electrical
10:42
parade is original choreography or
10:44
choreography changed only slightly
10:47
um so rope obviously it's new uh there's
10:50
nothing to pull from
10:52
uh
10:53
it was very like sensational-esque
10:56
i see that especially when it was going
10:57
down the bayou it felt like yep i can
11:00
see that it was just so fun and i liked
11:02
it
11:03
and i was a big fan of it i agree though
11:05
it doesn't be lit up so favorite
11:07
section of the parade now that you've
11:09
seen it in its newest form
11:12
favorite section of the parade
11:15
uh whirlybugs aren't really a section i
11:18
will count them you'll count whirlybugs
11:20
sorry iconic
11:23
i feel like i'm going to say whirlybugs
11:25
okay and i'm going to go with elliott
11:28
which is my earliest disney memory and
11:30
uh it's why i bought this and it was
11:32
actually fun because wednesday night we
11:34
were there to catch the preview and uh
11:37
and
11:38
i'm just going to shout out to josh
11:40
diamara the chairman of parks and
11:41
resorts who came over and said hi and we
11:43
had a wonderful conversation about the
11:45
return of the main street electrical
11:46
parade and we shared early memories of
11:50
the main street electrical parade which
11:51
was a lot of fun and i just love when
11:53
you get to talk to somebody like that
11:55
and you see the passion in their eyes
11:57
and hear it in their voice of how much
11:59
they genuinely love their job and they
12:01
genuinely love
12:02
disney and i think that was a lot of fun
12:05
to get to experience for those few
12:07
minutes but
12:08
we were going to continue on talking
12:10
about nighttime spectaculars because
12:12
main street electrical parade isn't the
12:14
only one back disneyland forever has
12:16
returned as has world of color and in
12:18
just about a month
12:19
so will fantasmic so we'll save
12:21
fantasmic for later
12:23
because i'm gonna assume
12:25
something will have changed for that too
12:27
um no we're saving fantasmic
12:29
okay
12:30
disneyland forever what'd you think
12:32
i really like it um i will say i uh i
12:36
always think of this i remember somebody
12:37
one time said
12:39
disneyland forever more like disney
12:41
movies forever um
12:44
and that's accurate because remember
12:45
dreams come true as a better
12:47
disneyland show i have nothing wrong
12:49
with disneyland forever i just think the
12:50
name's a little misleading
12:52
i will say though i forgot how it ended
12:55
i forgot that it ended with just think
12:57
all of this is yours forever and mickey
13:00
and walt walking through the castle
13:02
it's pretty beautiful brought a small
13:04
tear to my eye did not cry small tear to
13:07
my eye though um also i forgot how much
13:10
i missed step into the magic
13:12
it's a good song good song
13:15
i actually think it's one of the better
13:17
fireworks theme songs i agree like it's
13:20
it's a standalone solid song and i think
13:23
happily ever after is stronger
13:25
but i think it's up to the parade show i
13:27
mean
13:28
fireworks song
13:32
okay
13:33
but like i don't know what i think of
13:34
that standalone fireworks song i think
13:37
happily ever after a stronger but i
13:38
think disneyland forever or
13:40
uh step into the magic is a similar
13:43
yeah in a similar tier you know what i
13:45
mean okay
13:47
okay that's cool um
13:49
i love the projections on it i thought
13:51
it's a fun show it's a good show we got
13:53
to see the whole thing on wednesday
13:54
night friday night it got blown out the
13:56
second half so it was just projections
13:58
and that's okay we'll see it's okay we
13:59
saw nemo
14:01
that's true um and it is just running
14:03
through the weekends right now and
14:05
they've got mickey's mixed magic
14:06
projection during the week
14:08
um is there anything else you had really
14:10
about disneyland forever
14:12
oh okay
14:13
world of color has also returned it
14:14
looks beautiful sounds wonderful i think
14:17
the uh the projections are better than
14:19
ever um
14:22
you didn't get to see it yet but
14:24
i'm really sad um and and we should
14:26
thank uh jem and juan because they were
14:28
able to get us in on sunday to film it
14:31
by giving us their
14:33
virtual boarding group it was very kind
14:35
of them but uh
14:37
i was surprised at how enjoyable that
14:39
show was for me as well um
14:41
and in how i just i think the music's so
14:44
great for that one and if i had my wish
14:46
come true though i would cut out the
14:49
pirates of the caribbean section and put
14:51
back in
14:52
the fantasia
14:55
i agree all that stuff the original show
14:57
like i would love to see
14:59
opening day world of color again and uh
15:02
opening public day of world of color i
15:03
think there was a few iterations at the
15:04
very beginning but um but no it's really
15:06
funny i
15:08
need why can't i think of his name uh
15:11
the
15:13
i can pull this out any other time uh
15:15
this is a character no the structure
15:17
that got it got put under water for 10
15:19
years because it didn't work during the
15:20
previews
15:22
um
15:23
uh turnabout
15:25
there we go turnabout you want the china
15:27
box back yeah well i never saw the
15:28
chernabog
15:30
because there's no footage of the
15:30
turnabout
15:32
well there's kind of footage of the
15:33
tournament
15:34
i want chernabog in world of color
15:36
there you go that's
15:38
this is my favorite piece of disneyland
15:40
floor
15:41
like well dca
15:43
2.0 lore
15:44
do you see a one and a half lore because
15:46
world of color is dca one and a half i
15:48
would consider it the beginning of two
15:50
you would yeah that was kind of the
15:51
kickoff um because that was
15:54
like it was that it was um
15:56
little mermaid ariel's undersea
15:58
adventure a lot of that kind of stuff i
15:59
feel like they started with to distract
16:01
us from all the stuff that was going on
16:03
in front of wall street and it worked it
16:05
was great because we'd walk through the
16:06
weird entrance through the back of um
16:09
uh behind us behind sauron and between
16:11
uh and gettys and world of world of
16:14
disney well now you'd walk in like an
16:16
entrance for a while and then you turn
16:17
right and walk over and then it was yeah
16:19
it was a very interesting way to do it
16:21
but uh
16:22
it was fun so interesting of the three
16:25
favorites
16:26
what do you rank them
16:30
just those three
16:32
oh no
16:36
electric parade disneyland forever world

disneyland after dark grad night reunion
18:17

18:19
at the end of june katie what do you
18:21
think of this besides fish face
18:23
um
18:26
i mean the real question
18:28
before you answer though the real
18:30
question that needs to be answered and
18:33
you have to go to our tech talk to find
18:35
this
18:36
right i haven't not yet okay you're
18:38
going to have to go to the tick tock to
18:39
find this because it's going to be
18:40
posted
18:42
actually you have to go to tick tock to
18:43
find out what the question is huh yeah
18:44
you do yeah we're going to leave it at
18:46
that how is that for a tease an
18:48
unscripted unplanned tease
18:50
um
18:51
that's remotely
18:53
related to fish faces uh all right go
18:55
ahead
18:56
uh
18:57
so one i never had a disneyland grad and
18:59
i actually fought against disneyland
19:01
grad night i didn't have a choice i
19:03
didn't want one
19:04
where was your grad night
19:06
uh in the high school gym
19:09
no
19:11
mine was at round one bowling
19:13
in l.a it was very fun
19:15
um
19:17
i
19:18
at first when i saw this news i thought
19:22
daff's magic title magic is our tick
19:24
tock
19:25
i thought when they were announcing this
19:27
i was like oh this is something for the
19:29
2020 and 2021 graduates to do something
19:32
really special and get to celebrate
19:34
and then i read what it was and
19:38
i went oh that's different um it is a
19:41
grad night you know what i'm most
19:42
excited
19:44
disneyland after comment because when i
19:46
think about things that i miss from high
19:47
school
19:48
first thing that comes to mind probably
19:50
not ever is cafeteria food
19:54
like i i literally started chuckling
19:56
when i saw that i was like
19:59
cafeteria food huh i am curious to see
20:01
what cafeteria food
20:03
from the disney perspective is because i
20:06
actually think it might be the one time
20:08
we like it
20:09
maybe
20:11
just think like
20:12
maybe maybe they'll have um
20:15
boxed mashed potatoes
20:18
pizza that you can oil your car with
20:22
right
20:24
oh don't forget the green beans that you
20:26
can eat with with a spoon
20:28
because if you with a fork they fall
20:30
apart
20:32
like i'm just baffled by that i was like
20:34
cafeteria food huh and they're using it
20:36
as a selling point
20:38
which makes me think that it's like
20:40
i went from that's ridiculous to like
20:42
i'm totally intrigued
20:44
i don't know
20:45
like what i would want to try but i'm
20:48
i'm intrigued oh and like uh tater tot
20:50
casserole which they're really good with
20:52
tater tots dca so
20:54
i think there's a chance that it could
20:55
be fun um yeah so anyway there's three
20:58
dates it's 150 or more
21:01
i i thought it was funny because it says
21:02
starting at 150 which makes me think one
21:05
of them will be like 106.75
21:08
75.75
21:09
but we will see we'll we'll follow that
21:11
and we'll see how it goes and you know
21:12
what we're gonna go
21:14
we sure hope so i mean there's always
21:16
that whole like
21:19
internet thing but and it's moving right
21:21
along thursday yeah appropriately enough
21:24
the muppet movie
21:25
soundtrack
21:26
is coming out on vinyl again and it
21:28
looks amazing um what is it i am 8-bit
21:32
has released or is pre-releasing
21:34
pre-selling
21:35
this uh soundtrack what do you think of
21:36
it katie how'd you find out about this
21:38
from you
21:39
i was in the middle of a meeting looking
21:41
at my watch
21:42
um
21:44
i was on a break at work
21:46
um i was sitting with clocky funny
21:49
enough hi clocky
21:50
thanks for visiting me at work um
21:54
and
21:55
i saw bailey's instagram post not to
21:58
like name drop everybody in the chat um
22:00
of the muppet
22:02
vinyl and i dropped everything and i
22:05
immediately like first of all i bought
22:07
it and then i texted things sell out so
22:09
fast and then i texted mr apps and said
22:12
hey this is a story and he said what is
22:14
it i'm in a meeting and i said
22:17
muppet vinyl um also i bought it
22:21
so
22:23
yeah um really exciting it came in
22:26
kermit green
22:27
piggy pink animal red and scooter yellow
22:31
we obviously got kermit green obviously
22:34
um
22:35
i think this is great and i love
22:38
the sleeve that it comes in i think the
22:39
sleeves are really like the the art for
22:43
like i almost wish you could just buy
22:44
the
22:45
the artwork from the sleeves because
22:47
they're really pretty and um and they
22:50
remastered it for this so that will be
22:52
really cool too and i have
22:54
two copies of the original version of
22:57
the muppet movie soundtrack on vinyl
22:59
one in my office at work and one here
23:01
that i listened to fairly frequently so
23:04
i am actually really looking forward to
23:06
hearing the difference between
23:08
what is it 40 year old 40 something year
23:11
old
23:12
was it 79
23:15
i thought it was 77
23:17
star wars um anyway 40 something versus
23:22
the new version and i think that'll be
23:23
fun yeah maybe even worth doing
23:25
something on tick tock for that too of
23:27
like here's this song on the original
23:29
and then backing and forth like that
23:31
could be fun so i have no idea what it's
23:32
going to be here i pre-ordered it it
23:34
says quarter two which we're in quarter
23:37
two that's oh i'm in q3
23:40
i wonder when their q2 is
23:43
because our q1 starts october 1st but if
23:45
you're a year like if you start in
23:47
january
23:48
then you're in q2
23:50
oh i'm in q3 anyway
23:52
what what quarter are you in
23:55
i don't know uh anyway that is a lot of
23:58
fun and it came out or the release was
24:00
pre-release pre-release was the day
24:02
after we found out that the muppets
24:04
mayhem began
24:06
filming for its disney plus series which
24:08
is going to be a blast
24:11
and uh this is the story of how the
24:14
electric mayhem get their well we
24:17
presumably
24:18
think they're gonna get their first
24:20
album like we don't actually know that
24:22
they get it at the end
24:23
because they they talk about making it
24:25
so who knows it's gonna be great though
24:27
because um electric mayhem is kind of
24:30
generally a peripheral thing that just
24:32
adds a musical and comedic moment to
24:35
whatever thing
24:36
uh the muppets are doing and this time
24:38
they're gonna be front and center and uh
24:40
matt vogel who is the voice of sergeant
24:42
floyd pepper
24:44
posted about it and he's also the voice
24:45
of kermit the frog or performer behind
24:47
kermit the frog both of them i should
24:49
say
24:50
and um and it's kind of fun to see him
24:54
doing something different than that like
24:56
i just think it's that's the fun of the
24:58
muppets is seeing people shine in
24:59
different ways
25:00
uh this sounds to me like a lot a lot
25:02
like muppets take manhattan kind of and
25:05
like
25:05
we're gonna hit show biz and make our
25:07
big break
25:08
um
25:10
and then something goes horribly if they
25:12
i think this could be the new uh rock
25:14
and roller coaster oh please um that
25:17
would actually make me really happy
25:19
also i saw an animal t-shirt today in
25:21
world of disney and i almost bought it
25:23
simply not because i wanted it simply
25:25
because i was like oh they're putting
25:26
them up it's on things let me tell them
25:27
that i want this oh yeah i think i think
25:29
everybody go out and buy lots of of
25:31
muppet stuff yeah lots of muppet stuff
25:33
like
25:34
our army of muppet wishables muppet
25:37
t-shirt i'm wearing orange bird i'm
25:39
sorry um in fact this is the same
25:41
t-shirt that matt vogel was wearing and
25:43
it was just it was like i have that
25:45
t-shirt and i've never seen anybody else
25:47
no you did a good job with that one i
25:49
was i was really impressed with that but
25:51
we're looking forward to that it's gonna
25:52
be a blast and uh
25:54
i can't wait i can't wait either another
25:56
thing that is opening tomorrow at epcot
25:59
is connections cafe and eatery and we
26:01
got a look at that this last week thanks
26:03
to disney sending us some wonderful
26:04
press photos um i will admit
26:08
this every time i look at it i get more
26:10
excited about it as i'm seeing more
26:12
angles more decorations more
26:16
everything what do you think about it
26:21
it's a lot of empty
26:22
space i'm sure that'll be fixed tomorrow
26:26
[Music]
26:28
i don't like saying this the starbucks
26:31
itself
26:33
like the the starbucks proper it's a
26:36
little
26:38
i love the mural on the back wall i
26:40
really want somebody to pull the loop
26:42
also like the the bgm and pull that sure
26:44
that'll be up tomorrow too please
26:46
somebody give me source source audio um
26:48
i would really love that because i heard
26:51
that we go on is in the loop and
26:53
that would make me cry like one of my
26:55
favorite epcot memories period is
26:57
walking out after illuminations an
26:59
absolutely empty world showcase we go on
27:01
was playing and it was beautiful
27:03
um and i have video of it and i watch it
27:05
sometimes um
27:07
yeah it just it doesn't live up to
27:09
fountain view
27:10
in my opinion
27:11
i don't think it's as good as fountain
27:12
view but yeah the more i'm seeing from
27:14
different angles from the outside the
27:16
more i'm liking it and i do love the
27:18
murals um i love the floor i think is
27:20
really cool i love it before i love the
27:23
furniture like i actually like the vibe
27:25
it has i love that epcot
27:27
yeah and it'll be interesting
27:30
i think once people are in it that's
27:32
gonna change it completely and i really
27:33
think
27:34
it's
27:36
design
27:37
is reacting to
27:39
the shortcomings of
27:41
the previous one
27:42
because that one was always packed it
27:44
was always uncomfortable
27:46
yeah i thought you meant travelers for a
27:48
second no but it was always
27:49
uncomfortable waiting for your drinks
27:50
because there was way too many people
27:52
and and
27:54
it's it's actually i think the challenge
27:56
with it is it's it's curse of popularity
28:00
has necessitated a more open design and
28:04
uh and i i want to hold judgment like
28:06
real judgment until i see it myself yeah
28:09
i don't i can't judge off of photos i
28:10
cancelled off of videos i really want to
28:12
be there and like experience it i would
28:15
say if i had one critique it's i i'm not
28:17
a huge fan of the green starbucks logo
28:20
on the red wall
28:22
like that that's the one that i will
28:24
give you thank you oh my gosh i will say
28:28
i will say i showed that to my district
28:31
manager who was weirdly connected to
28:32
geek's corner in a weird way um and i
28:34
showed him those photos
28:37
and he said
28:39
it looks like a big old christmas cup
28:41
and it made me laugh it's true it does
28:44
all right finally tonight we got a new
28:47
light year trailer this last week and it
28:49
was a uh
28:51
quite a ride i would say
28:53
what do you think of it without going
28:54
into spoilers from the trailer i
28:56
actually am more excited than i was with
28:59
the last trailer i will say that yeah i
29:01
think it goes into really fun sci-fi
29:03
elements that i wasn't expecting light
29:05
year to do
29:06
um
29:08
i'm
29:09
way more excited
29:11
i have a prediction
29:13
are you allowed to say it
29:14
yeah i think i am i'm i'm i'm gonna make
29:17
a prediction that there's gonna be a lot
29:18
more emotion and heart to this than we
29:20
ever imagined
29:22
to the point where i would tend to guess
29:23
it will at least bring a tear to your
29:25
eye i agree maybe more yeah um
29:29
just looking at what they released this
29:31
last week and
29:33
um what happens in what we've seen so
29:36
far it seems to me like there is going
29:38
to be some real emotional
29:41
moments in this
29:44
that's i guess that's my guess so i've
29:46
got two thumbs up for this i'm really
29:48
looking forward to seeing it and i can't
29:50
wait to see it on the big screen too
29:51
like looking at this you're right it's a
29:53
sci-fi movie sci-fi movies should be
29:55
seen on the big screen it's true um it's
29:57
like james bond james bond star trek
29:59
star wars indiana jones and now light
30:02
you all need to be seen on the big
30:03
screen actually all pixar films should
30:05
be that's true alternative always looks
30:08
gorgeous on the big screen
30:10
but you are right it is now geek's
30:11
corner plus time which means welcome
30:14
your charge will be uh our cards will be
30:16
automatically charged we do have some
30:18
new wishables yeah
30:20
i'm scared this is the moment of truth
30:22

30:25
go through this you can make predictions
30:26
on what we think we might get do you
30:28
