 Hey friends, today we are hanging out at Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Sorcerer Mickey has returned to his regular meet and greet spot. And officially starting today, masks are completely optional for fully vaccinated guests, so I wanted to come out and take a selfie with Mickey, and then also ride some rides, eat some food, and enjoy a Hollywood Studios kind of day. Any hoos, let's go do this. And wow, it is such a beautiful day out. And like I said before, today is the first day that masks are completely optional for fully vaccinated guests, so you can wear a mask if you want to, or you don't have to wear a mask as long as you're fully vaccinated. And that includes all indoor locations, so you don't have to wear your mask on the rides or while you're going into restaurants, or you could wear them, and I kind of got used to it, you know what I mean? I've been doing it for so long, now there are certain things that I do miss like on rides, like riding soren or flight of passage with a mask on, I feel like that kind of hinders the experience, but meeting characters and taking photos with the mask on is something I really, really didn't like, and now sourcer Mickey's back, and he's my favorite Mickey, I can go and take a photo without having to wear my mask, and I love it, I'm so excited. It definitely looks like it's a very busy day in the park today, we're gonna check out some of the wait times, but I did buy Lightning Lane for Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway, and also I got the Genie Plus, now I'm not too sure if I can grab any Lightning Lanes with that, but we're gonna see what we can get. When I decided that I was gonna come to Hollywood Studios and see Sourcer Mickey, I bought the Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway Lightning Lane individually because I feel like it's appropriate to get me all hyped up to go meet the man himself. It cost me eight dollars to skip the 65 minute wait here at Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway, so we're gonna ride that first, and then also I spent $15 for the Genie Plus, but I didn't get any selections yet so we're gonna have to see what we can get, but I think Chippendale is over here on the grassy knoll, and I want to go say hi to them. Oh, it looks like Chip has an acorn, that's kind of cool. Oh my lord, it looks like Chippendale are having a picnic on the grassy knoll in front of the Hollywood Ground Derby, that is the cutest thing ever. Look at this, they both have acorns and then they have a picnic basket and a little blanky. Oh, look, that is so awesome. I really love these character sightings. I think he's putting the acorn away. Yep, putting the acorn away. Why is he wrapping the blanky around his head? Looks like a nifty bandana. I like it. I like it. That's the way. Very stylish, adorable. Now let's go ride Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway, and this is gonna be my first ride without a mask in a long, long time. For a time there, Disney actually did take away the mask, and then they brought it back when the cases started rising, and now it's universal. It's all over Disneyland, Universal Studios, everywhere has now made it optional for a fully vaccinated guest. I was trying to get Rise of the Resistance as an individual Lightning Lane purchase, but no luck so far, and a lot of people don't know that once it's sold out for the day, it doesn't mean that it's gone for the whole entire day. They actually pop back up, so if you're in the app and you keep on checking, they'll actually pop back up, and that's what happened today for Runaway Railway. They were sold out when I first checked, and then I kept on going in and tapping the app, and then one popped up, so I grabbed it. It feels a little awkward not to be grabbing a mask once you walk into a building, because I'm so used to it, and I did bring my mask, because sometimes you're like in a very crowded space, and if you feel like wearing a mask because you want to be safe, then absolutely, there's nothing wrong with that, and that doesn't mean if people are wearing masks, they're not vaccinated. It's just their choice to actually wear the mask, and there's nothing wrong with that. Before I was talking about how you have to keep on checking the app if you want to get lightning lanes, so I went to actually book a lightning lane for the Genie Plus, and I was able to get Tower of Terror for five o'clock, and all I did is just keep on pulling this down until it popped up, and they will always change, so like Toy Story Mania is at 450, and things will come and go as you keep on refreshing. 430, 310, and I just pull that right down and boom, just like that, just keep refreshing. Now it's time to head on in, and I feel a little sad, because my Magic Band, this is my Epcot Forever Magic Band, the tab broke, so I can't put it on my wrist, I'm just gonna carry it around, and I love this one, and I don't know how to fix it, I even lost a little tabby there, but yeah, time to head on in. Excellent, thank you. There we go. Thank you. Awesome, thank you. It looks like they extended the queue indoor here or two, that's something new I haven't seen before, usually this was the fast poise separation point, but now that's still standby. After this, we're gonna head over to Red Carpet Dreams, so we can see Sorcerer Mickey, and I think he just came back like two or three days ago, so this is all brand-new, I haven't got to see him yet, I did get to see Minnie in there when she first came back, but Sorcerer Mickey, he's my favorite, and he just makes me think of Hollywood Studios. You're the perfect picnic star at Mickey's Mini House, are we excited? Yeah! Well, hi ya folks, wanna take a ride on the train? Excuse me, you later. Who, me? Do you mind helping these good people into the cartoon, wanna fix this here lowkey motive? I guess, but it's gonna be a lot of paperwork for both of us. Thanks, be back in a jiffy to pick y'all up. Well, that says to train, so this way. You missed the great movie ride, I love Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway, but I just missed the great movie ride, I don't know why I'm feeling this way recently, but it's been hitting me hard. So, that was a lot of fun, and it was nice to actually be on a ride without the mask on, like I said, some rides I feel like the mask did kinda like hinder it, like you know what I mean, like anything that has like special smells or whenever they blow like wind on your face, I kinda felt it here at Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway when you go into that one room with the tornado, but it got me thinking, now that mask are optional, can we bring food and drink in line with us again? Because if that's the case, I need to go get a coffee and ride the people mover ASAP. I have to find out, because this is a game changer. Now I think it's time we head into Red Carpet Dreams, and it's a 35 minute wait, but I think this is the only place on property where you can actually go and stand in a standby line to meet Mickey and Minnie in special outfits. I think this is the only one actually right now. Today I'm wearing my Pixar Roosevelt shirt, and I love this shirt. It's got all my favorite Pixar characters on it. It's even got the Pizza Planet truck on there. It's got Mike Wazowski, it's got the aliens. It's a really colorful bright T-shirt. Now it's time to head on in. I love these interactive posters in here. We have Hollywood Dreams, and then we have the Book of Dreams, and they're so cool. And I think we're next. Minnie's right around the corner, we're gonna see her first, and then we're gonna see Sorcerer Mickey. Hi Minnie, how are you? Are you doing well? Yeah? Absolutely. I know, right? It's very beautiful in here. Yes, and I like your dress, it looks fabulous. Seems like you're about to go to a nice Hollywood dance, you know? The Bell of the Ball. I like it. Well, that's so awesome. Yeah, I know, I love it. And I also like your hat too, and your umbrella. Oh wow! Oh, very, very clever. Well, thank you so much Minnie, can we take a photo? Yeah? Oh, awesome. Minnie is so sweet, and now we're gonna go down the hallway and we're gonna meet Mickey. Look at this hallway. It's got more of the interactive posters on here. I just like it. Ooh, what's this one? Footlight Follies. And we got little Goofy right there looking all dapper. I like this one a lot. We got Clarabel the Cow. Wow! Claire Clark? Claire Clark? This is a really cool one, and this is like NGM Studios. Well, yeah, but it says red carpet pictures. That's a cool one. One of the things I noticed, none of these photo or meet and greets have a photo pass photographer so you can do it from your phone, or the cast members will take photos for you too. But no photo pass photographer yet. Oh, there he is! Hiya, pal, how are ya? Good, good? Oh, wow, I love it. I love the sorcery happening here, and I love your sorcerer hat. That is my favorite. That is so awesome. This is so amazing in here. I love everything about it. I know we got the brooms, we got the mop buckets. We've got it all. Look at that view. Wow, mesmerizing. Seriously, I'm so happy you're here. Oh, that is cool. That is awesome. Thank you, Mickey. Can we take a photo real quick? Yeah? All right, awesome. Sorcerer Mickey was awesome. And his little meet and greet area there was so cool. It's so well-themed. And they also were playing phantasmic music in there, which kind of got me excited. That's one thing I really, really hope they bring back soon. Phantasmic was such a great nighttime celebration where you get to just sit down, relax, and just chill out for the night. Because everything else, you're kind of all crammed in and you're standing, but not phantasmic. You kind of just kind of chill out. Last time I was at Hollywood Studios, I was talking about how I can never get a reservation for the sci-fi dine-in theater. And since it's right across from Red Carpet Dreams, I decided to see if they had any walk-up availability. And guess what? I'm on the list. It's about a 20-minute wait, and I'm excited. The only bad thing about it is if you do a walk-up here at the sci-fi, you sit in the back on what they call the flying saucers, which is kind of just like a picnic table. Instead of being able to sit in the car itself, kind of like at a drive-in. You know how they always had those seats in the back or by the concession stand, where you can actually sit down and watch the movie in case you don't have a car. So that's where you actually have to go sit and eat. Dude, and watch some movies. Here is a look at the menu, and they're known for their burgers. They have the drive-in barbecue burger. They have the classic American burger. But the one that I always get is the feature film burger. And this is a seasonal offering, and they switch it out. And I always get it because it's always something different. So I'm pretty excited to see what it is, because we're definitely ordering it. Filming in progress. Do not enter when red light is flashing. We're heading in. And of course, just like in any other drive-in theater, they've got the refreshments in the back there. Well, I got lucky, and I'm able to sit in a car, but I'm kind of surrounded by plexiglass, and it's really close to my face. But isn't this so cool? I love it. I can't wait to watch some movies. Walt comes up on there soon, too. I'm going to be really quiet, because we are in a movie theater. As you're sitting in your car, they actually have little speakers on the outside, just like a regular drive-in. So that's really nifty, isn't it? Normally, like I said, if you walk up, you actually sit back here where the saucers are, and I'll show you. But because they put this plexiglass in, I think it accommodates more parties of two. So you might actually get a car. She's a girl who loved a man. A man who, in a flash, became a living threat to humanity. The feature burger is a pork burger. So it's a pork patty with a pork belly and pork brisket with a slaw. And also a special sauce. I asked for the sauce on the side, though, and it does come with caramelized onions. And I'm going for it. Nice little fancy burger. Right there is the saucers that are in the back. And that's usually where you go. But like I said, we kind of just got a little lucky today. And I'm so happy. It's so awesome in here, isn't it? There he is. There's the man himself. Walt Disney. Here is the burger itself. And look at this bad boy. Look at that pork brisket on there. It looks so, so good. I can't wait to dive into it. Then we got a little french fries. And then here's the special sauce. I don't know what the sauce is, but we'll try it. This looks so, so good. Take the little spear out of there. And now it's time to try it. Here we go. First bite. There is so much going on with this burger. It is so good, though. I love it. I'm going to put a little french fry on there. I love putting french fries on my burgers. This one has a little bit of everything, though. Let's dive into this burger again here. I feel like I'm going to lift the tray up with me. I'm going to lift the tray up with me. Well, that was awesome to dine in there. It's a little difficult to film only because it's very, very dark and also it's very quiet. So I didn't want to talk a lot. I wanted to be courteous of everyone around me. So I couldn't really show you as much as... I mean, I would like to, but I did get to show you some really cool aspects of the restaurant. It's one of my all-time favorite themed restaurant. I mean, the food is okay. It's just like burgers. I remember one time they had a hot dog hamburger that I loved. And like I said, they always change out the burger. So you can always check to see what they got going on. But I love it just for the atmosphere on its own. I'm going to look at some of the wait times to see if there's anything else we can do. Rise of the Resistance is 155 minutes. Tower of Terror is 125. Slinky Dog Dash is 95. Which is kind of low for Slinky Dog Dash. Toy Story Mania 65. Rock and Roller 70. So it's not as busy as the other day when we were here, but it's still pretty busy. I think I'm going to actually head in and do Toy Story Mania. That's one of the indoor attractions that you don't have to wear your mask anymore. It's kind of fun. I love Toy Story Mania. Looks like the standby wait is 65 minutes. But I don't think it's 65 minutes because the line is not outside. It's all inside the attraction. So we'll time it and see what it's like. But this is not looking like 65 minutes. The best thing about Toy Story Mania has to be Potato Head Dolls. Step right up and take a rocking ride through our gallery of games. That'll stone, that'll surround you. So we'll even come to phone you. Our games will test your skill in coming out of Everville. Well, it looks like the wait time was pretty accurate and it took just about 60 minutes. 60 minutes on the button. Today I'm actually going to be playing with a friend the Dapper Danielle. Are you excited? I am ready to conquer and we will be the best score in car. Yes, that's the goal. That is the goal. Oh yeah, it's going down. Now I'm not going to be able to film a lot because we're going to really try to get a good score here. But there is a lot of different secret scenes that you can unlock. I wish I could show you. Maybe one day I'll come back and make a whole video about that. But today it's game time. Alright, first rule. Don't waste your arm strength on the practice round. It's true. This is just like light stretching. You got to conserve your energy. We're going to go nice and easy and I'll let you guys know the score at the end. I mean, unless it's a bad one, then I probably won't let you know. You got a good one. You're all calibrated? We have been delayed but we're doing pretty good. We're doing good. Don't waste your strength here. None of that. Full time. It is kind of cool to see it in here without actually having to look around. Without spinning around. Look, I didn't even know that wall was a puzzle over there. That's really interesting. I like how we keep on getting delayed and then we can give you a progress. We're getting there. We're going, we're going. Let's see. Is it enough for the best in car? We did good. We did good. We both got a deer. That's not too bad. 30%. That's really good. That's nice. Now let's see if we got best in car. Oh, we bested the hour. Yeah! Best in vehicle, best this hour. Nice. Best this month though is $577,000. You know that's a cash number. That's a lot. So that was a lot of fun. We got over $500,000 in combined score. And we got best this hour, which is pretty fascinating, right? I hadn't seen that before. So I didn't know it was so cool that you would have been getting that score. So good teamwork. We rocked all the secret little levels inside the rooms and I was pretty impressed with ourselves. I want to make a video. I'll show you guys some of those because I think it is fun, but like I said, you have to come out and not play the game. You just got to film. So it's very, but how can you film and get it? You have to have like an empty car next to you and then prop them up on like a side car. You need two. So one watching the screen and one watching you as you play. That's a lot of work. Challenge accepted. Now I think we're going to head on into the legends of Hollywood. Do a little shopping. Sparkle on the Sunset Boulevard. I just love coming out here. It's so nice. And Sean joined up with us. Hey friend. I'm not buying you anything. Wait. Wink. What? Ever since I came in here and I saw those cool power line shirts and that dark wing duck shirt. I keep on stopping in to see if there's anything else. For some reason, this store on its own always has things I don't see anywhere else. And that's included this magic kingdom shirt. Look at this. The magic kingdom Walt Disney World. I love this shirt. I mean that is really, really cool. And we got some more Baymax love down here. I didn't see this. It's not on the display rack but Baymax there on the bottom. It also looks like they have a new Spirit Jersey to go along with the Baymax one. And this one's for animal in the Muppets. I don't like this one as much. But this one's still on my list. The only thing is I don't like this color part here. I always just talk about the Spirit Jerseys. I don't know why. It's just something about them. Now that we've done a little shopping around. I was looking for the Paging Mr. Morrow socks if you haven't seen them. They weren't in that store so we'll have to go check out the other one. I think now we'll head over to baseline and kind of just chill out. I really love baseline for the atmosphere and especially at night. It is so pretty over here. Look at how cool it is over here at baseline with the lights. The vibes are great. The music's nice. The beer is good. It's always Bureau Clock. I decided to grab a nice little Hefeweizen. Sit out here on the patio with the lights and just relax. So cheers. I ended up getting one of the pretzels and this pretzel is one of my favorite pretzels. It's not in my top three like my list before. But some of those pretzels are the same exact pretzel except for the different sauces. But I like this one and I don't use the sauces. Beer and pretzels go very well together. Easy. Now I think we're going to make our way down sunset and take a look at the Tower of Terror maybe. I wanted to actually stop into the Tower of Terror and you can always tell whether or not both elevator shafts are working and it only looks like one is working. So that's why it's 120 minutes and I recently checked the app and this is the highest waited time in the park right now. Even higher than Rise of the Resistance. That is pretty crazy isn't it? Luckily I booked the lightning lane earlier today because look at this line as we're walking through. It's no good whenever there's actually only one elevator shaft. Like this is this is super super long here but it's cool that we don't we get to ride it without our mask on. When we got up here there was basically no line for the lightning lane. So I'm lucky that I grabbed that but that was the only lightning lane that I got with my $15. So I paid $15 to ride the Tower of Terror today and that's not good. That's not good. I mean I love Tower of Terror but I don't know if it's worth $15. Look at the moonlight over there and also if you guys seen recently they added the special PhotoPass package to Hollywood Studios and Epcot and I noticed on one of the advertisements that you get to come up here and take a photo like over here. I think that's totally worth it because it is an affordable price. They were only doing at Magic Kingdom but now that they're doing in here I might be a little bit interested. I mean I wouldn't mind having my photo over there. This would be a great spot for like engagement photos or wedding photos. I like it. Also now it's the first time riding Tower of Terror without a mask on so that kind of feels good. It smells very dusty in here and I think the smell is stronger without the mask. What do you think Sean? I missed the dust. You missed the dust? It does smell more dustier. This is where you would normally be able to go to the other side of the elevator shaft if you wanted to so it tells you to please use both sides but like I said before it's closed at the moment and that's why it's such a super long wait and I feel like this has been happening a lot because last time I was at Hollywood Studios it was the same case and maybe it's something major broken that elevator shaft. Something very dangerous. Looks like we're number three. Special care to supervise your children. Thank you. This is the game. It's so cool. Much too good. Special jackpot. Ten thousand. Oh the Twilight Zone. Now that we got done with the Tower of Terror I think we're going to head over and catch the projection show on the Chinese theater. Now I just recently found out that they have two different shows. They have one that is all dedicated to live action movies and then the animation one. Now I know about the animation one but I don't think I've ever seen the live action one and it's also awesome to point out that this is the only night time show right now on Disney property that has Walt Disney in it. How did the world come in? Well of course the big important premiere was Snow White but we had a couple after that. You went close? Is that Dr. Strange? Wait I thought they couldn't do anything with Marvel of the east of Mississippi. Dr. Strange don't count. He used to have a meet and greet here. He had a meet and greet at Hollywood Studios. Oh that is cool. So that one was super awesome and I don't know if you guys heard me talking during some of the projections that they put out that's not like the main main show that's just all the live action one but Dr. Strange did have a meet and greet here at Hollywood Studios and I thought that was cool that they put them on the projection show and now the animation one is going to start and that one I like a lot because it starts off with Steamboat Willie and I feel like there should be more Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse in the night time shows like Harmonious and Enchantment. I don't think Mickey or Steamboat Willie, I mean Mickey or Walt Disney are in any of those so like it kind of blows my mind. This is Hollywood Studios proudly presents the wonderful world of animation. With that I think we are done here today. It was a lot of fun hanging out at Hollywood Studios going around riding some rides without wearing the mask and also seeing Sorcerer Mickey again because that was fun and also hanging out with the dapper Daniel and my friend Sean and just having a good day and ending it actually watching the animation show that was a lot of fun and honestly I didn't realize that there were two separate shows I always kind of watched them together so it was really awesome and the ending to the animation one with Walt and Steamboat Willie that was phenomenal so I hope you enjoyed the video I enjoyed making it we'll see you next time bye
