CREEPY OLD CRYPT #5: Seasons of The Vine (California Adventure)

In this episode of CREEPY OLD CRYPT, we reminisce over one of the biggest corporate blunders in theme park history. California Adventure sucked. But it got better. Listen to us talk about this misguided park's bizarre journey.

comfiest series on youtube

[@thomaass2]

The tron dance parties in that backlot area were so fun and funny.

[@dagyadg]

does the ant blow a wet fart in bug's life?

[@OldShaman]

You can feel the spray.

[@dasenase]

the Mega64 podcast era when all of you were going to Tron'd out Disney and doing the Bernie is some of the best podcasting on the internet.

[@Kuoin]

Damn, big ass spider on 1:37. Hope it decides to slide down for an input later in the episode.

[@roccobotte]

Kuoin I saw that and had to ignore it for an hour. It sucked.

[@RandomAssaultPodcast]

Rocco you are either very brave or very dedicated to your work, because my ass would have been the fuck out of there

[@WaLterNO]

Really appreciate you guys continuing this series! I would love at some point an episode where you just talk about news and rumors at the different parks.

[@scotishstriker]

It took fours years for them to find a property they could use to re-skin the Limo ride, and they did such a poor job converting it.

[@dagyadg]

man, that beeping in the background is killing me

[@sugoi4983]

Haven't been on soarin' in about a decade, can't wait to finally have the opportunity to smell dirt.

[@hotelmario99]

sugoi in Africa!

[@Snooper]

JUST THINKIN ABOUT THAT STORY IS MAKIN' ME SNEEZE

[@mannyichi]

Kevin in that lighting makes it look like Rocco's talking to Eddie Vedder. Lol

[@Swishiee]

Great stuff as always. I could listen to you guys talk about the parks for hours. I can't wait to chill at DCA with you guys and the Soldierz next month!

[@awesomemanspiff]

Awesome! Always look forward to these! Thank you Rocco!

[@Gloomilo]

AHH! I love when you do these videos! They're so good to listen to when I'm working

[@rodakscreens]

Condor Flats may or may not have ceased to exist because of me. I was really loudly complaining about how it should be combined with Grizzly Peak as Grizzly Peak Airfield, this was 2013. Less than a year later they announce that Condor Flats is becoming Grizzly Peak Airfield

[@D4rdar]

That intro song made me think I was going to watch a Bob Ross episode

[@Durbikins]

hey is this the smoking area?

[@grapeking4703]

Yea goofys sky school spooked me a little while space mountain and Big thunder mountain don't.

[@elgoblinodeamerica]

I honestly dont like what they did to Soarin

[@Rades99]

Honestly I think that bit with the ropes/trails/rock scaling etc is still good value, that's what gives me the most 'Californian vibes' out of anywhere in the park. The Aladdin show was great too, really good score, good acoustics, good acting etc, totally sucks that it's gone since I only get to visit America every few years

[@YellowYoshi398]

21:45 - sure enough, the next Mega64 Game Days involved them going to Bugs Land and riding Heimlich's Choo-Choo Train, as seen in the classic video "This is what we're about ;)" (uploaded one month later on Nov. 16, 2017)

[@YungM.D.]

I have a great amount of nostalgia for old CA Adventure, but I was very young when it was like that. I just miss Tower of Terror and Soarin’ (and the Muppets but that’s a different story). I felt the theming was a cool idea, a tribute to the golden state. But that’s me, I do enjoy the new stuff

[@bassoonistfromhell]

this is a cool show, i gotta watch the other ones

[@troyisfilming]

Another great episode, love it!

[@TheRealBobbyMC]

I'm glad the original is safe and sound at the moment, but logically speaking wouldn't it have made a lot more sense to leave the one at a catch all park like CA where the theme fits just fine (you could even call it a Hotel California reference in some ways), and change the one at Disney Studios which is a decade older and now in a park that is themed after their different franchises to begin with? Now people despise it and it has ruined that opportunity to rip the band aid off ninja-like.

[@crazoatmeal1854]

They may have nailed World of Color on the 1st try, but *before* that there was LuminAria. Never forget

[@purposly]

keep it up, i like this series

[@TheRealBobbyMC]

ITTBAB is just the Pirates of CA. People were expecting the Disney World style of park and got CA instead. So much like Pirates before it, Disney just replicated an existing ride and threw it in there, only this time space constraints didn't screw up the ride.

[@ICOWZI]

I really don't like Frozen, but that show is legitimately super impressive and entertaining. Far, far superior to the movie itself. Don't write it off.

[@morose1434]

the fucking beeping

[@MrTripleA88]

Why does the Bakery theme sound like the Friends theme?

[@Applesgosh]

Please keep doing these

[@RossardJames]

This is such a good show.

[@YNGDYE]

Reviews on the Run 64?

[@TWOZOMBIESGAME]

keep it up Rocco

[@Lemuzaurio_streams]

I can't find the song they used in the intro ;A;

[@Lemuzaurio_streams]

Kek I just did, its by Jerry Goldsmith.

[@Stealitnot]

No Cali pride in this episode. California Adventure was comfy before it was all more heavily Disney-branded.

[@mr.exposition]

I didn't like the carnitas, wheres my refund

[@oxygentramp42]

good shit

[@juanyeeast1630]

New Orleans Square please

[@gobshmack]

59:56

[@Grapefruit5000]

This is not that creepy

[@CornThatLefty]
