He’s boldly going where no dino has gone before. Okay. Yes, that but also it’s recess time. [Music] All right, we’ve made it through security. We’re on the purple carpet. We’re about to go in to Universal’s FanFest nights. We’re so excited, y’all. Let’s get in there and see what this is all about. All right, and if it wasn’t already obvious enough, can you tell what we’re most excited for? Obviously, Star Trek, but also the dino itself, Yoshi. We got our wristbands. Bam. And because we have, well, not unlimited express, but because we have express, they printed out a ticket so we can get on all the rides. Bam. Express pass. All right, Chris, what’s our game plan? I don’t know. We’re just going to walk around, get the lay of the land. I think there’s a lot of stuff up here on the upper lot. There’s One Piece. I think Wicked. There’s Corks Cafe. There’s Corks Cafe for Star Trek. We got to hit that up later for sure. I got to say, we did not get early entry. They had us corraled until 700 p.m. I recommend if you want to get in and if you’re not going to get expressed, I would probably I would probably get early entry if you can. Oh, the party has started. Oh, we can hear it. We can hear it. Yeah, [Music] side. Right hand side. Uh, we opted not to use our express. We’re going to ride it again, right? We’re going to ride this again. Ride. We’re going to do this again hopefully tonight. But the line’s so short right now. We’re just going to do standby. The theming is already great. We’re entering the spaceport. We’re entering Starfleet in San Francisco. We are in the loading zone. We’re waiting to board. So, we’re about to enter the Starfleet Museum. Just like in Star Trek Bard, it’s the giant spaceport where all the starships are docked. and we’re going to tour the MCC701D as seen on Star Trek the Next Generation and Star Trek Bicquard. I’m so excited. Oh my god. Welcome aboard the Enterprise D. And don’t worry, I know what you’re thinking. The atmosphere containment crew will ensure none of you get blown out into space. All right. My apologies, my friends. This is not part of the tour. All right. Please remain behind the line. Remain calm. The force field should keep this thing out. What? Warning. Anomaly detected in Shovel Bay 3. All right, we are under attack. Um, where am I supposed to sick bay? Sick bay. Yes, I will send you to sick bay. It is just straight ahead. You all should be safe there. Everyone, through these doors. There’s not a moment to lose. What in the neutral zone is going on? Go on it everyone. This is not partial tour. Please just stand by while we figure out what’s happening. Unable to complete transmission to engineering. If anyone can get systems back online, it’s then head corridors. Stay with your a hurry everyone inside. Keep together. Everyone just stand by. Okay. We have this under control. Next, we have some deck officers. Next. All right. for every choose behind these as well. We need forever together. Y’all, the Star Trek experience, Red Alert, was so much fun. Now, I got to say, it did feel a little rush. It’s not as immersive as the one in Las Vegas. Yeah, definitely not as immersive, but it was cool that they recreated some pieces of it. And you got to see the engineering room, the warp core, sick bay, turbo lifts, and the coolest part was getting to stand on the actual set from Star Trek Bard on the bridge. That was amazing. [Music] All right. So, we’re here at Mel’s Diner and we got the flux capacitor melt, which is basically just a patty melt with a cool little flux capacitor branding on the top of the bread. Hello. Melty cheese. It actually doesn’t look horrible. The bread’s nicely toasted. Flux capacitor. Got a nice toast. It seems like pretty buttery sourdough. Who’s eating this? You or Yoshi? Yoshi eats apples, not sourdough patty melts. So, me. It’s not horrible. It’s an averaged burger. The the bread is probably the my favorite part. It’s nice and buttery and super crispy. The patty tastes like a generic theme park burger patty. If you know what it you know, you know, like a Cisco uh preformed mass-produced patty. It definitely tastes like a school lunch burger, but on elevated bread. So, if I had to give it a score, I’m going to go three out of five cuz it’s just average. But, you know, it’s not bad. It’s a theme park burger. The bread’s nice and toasted, buttery, so slightly better than average. But now we’re here at 10 Forward Bar to grab some Star Trek themed drinks to continue the Star Trek themed night that we’re having. Of course, we’re going to do other stuff, but we wanted to get some drinks here at 10 Forward Bar. The recreation of the holiday bar on the Enterprise. There’s some really cool drinks. Can’t wait to show you. Let’s go get them. All right. I feel like Gynan back here. This is awesome. So, here at Turn Forward, I got the STI eel margarita. It’s a vodka based margarita, which is really interesting. And it’s got some spicy elements to it. It’s got some like jalapeno syrup in here. It’s got like a taheen tamarind rim. And it’s got a gummy eel. For those of you that don’t know, in Star Trek 2: Wrath of Khan, the seti eels were the little eels that like burrowed into the the dude’s ear and into the brain. But this one’s dead. It’s gummy, so don’t worry about it. Oh my god, that’s so good. It’s a little bit spicy, not too sweet. I really like that. I dig that a lot. Don’t even miss the tequila. I’m going to give this a five out of five. This is an awesome margarita. Here at Tin Forward, the drinks have been fire. Wow, the music is getting so loud in here. But here at Tin Forward, the drinks have been so good. All right, we’re here inside Quorks Cafe. It’s really cool that they transformed Hollywood and Dine into Quirks Cafe for the duration of FanFest nights. You walk in, you can order a plethora of Star Trek themed food and drinks. And they have lining the walls these pictures, including Cork himself from all the different Star Trek shows that Cork showed up in. So, it’s really cool homage to Cork and his beloved cafe that you see all over Deep Space 9. All right, here at Corkscore, I got the Andorian Red Bat. Look at this. It’s essentially a blue bow bun and a chicken marinated chicken sandwich, grilled chicken. And it comes with fries. Honestly, the fries look very similar to the ones that were at Mel’s. But look at this sandwich, though. Ooh, it’s a little slimy. Oh my god. This is going to make for some interesting well exit strategies, if you know what I mean. So, overall, the sandwich, I’m going to give the sandwich a two out of five. It could have been really good, but it doesn’t really have a lot of flavor. Overall, I don’t know that it’s my favorite sandwich. The chicken is just kind of bland, despite the fact that there’s sauce and grilled onions and stuff, you know? There’s a lot of stuff in here, but it’s just missing some salt. So, yeah, I’ll give it a two out of five. And speaking of colorful exit strategies, I got the Kardashian dog, which is a bright red Flamin’ Hot Cheetos encrusted Korean style corn dog. This thing is massive. There’s some sort of sauce on it, too. But oh my god. Here we go. Here goes nothing. That is so salty. Okay, I’m gonna give this a one out of five, you guys. This is not for me. The texture is weird because the Cheetos are kind of like soggy. They’re not crispy. The hot dog is super salty with the addition of the Cheetos. This makes this all so salty. Like I’m glad I have water here cuz I think I can only like take maybe one more bite. But they can’t all be winners here and there’s other food that we’re going to try. So, you know, you win some and you lose some. Am I right? We have to change the flavor in our mouth. That hot dog corn dog thing. That was not it. It was so gross. I was like, Chris must be exaggerating. I took a bite and y’all, that was not good. It was so bad. That was not good. So, we’re going to go get us a sweet treat hopefully. And our strategy is really to focus on the upper lodge and then once we’ve kind of knocked everything out except for Back to the Future. We’re going to save that for the end. And obviously we have somebody we got to meet. But anyway, Yoshi. Yeah. Now, where’s this sweet treat of ours? Around here somewhere. Okay. If you enjoy videos like these, please hit that subscribe button. It’s completely free and it really helps the channel out. Now, back to the recess. We decided we’re going to probably wait cuz it is really busy. It is 8:45 p.m. and I think just everyone’s trying to get dinner. This is a long event. It It’s still 2:00 a.m. That’s right. So, we’re going to skip the dessert and we’re going to head down to the lower lot and hopefully meet the dino himself, Yosh. Right. Here’s the thing about events like this. This is the first time we’ve done a Universal event, but I suspect they’re all the same. At the end of the day, you got to be flexible and adaptable. Things aren’t going to go according to plan. And the golden rule, you got to go into these things knowing you’re not going to be able to do everything. If you try to do everything, you’re going to be disappointed. But we’re going to try to do everything. I’m just kidding. Right. That’s the point of this vlog. Lower lot. Okay. And we know it takes like How long does it take to get down to the lower lot? 4 years. It takes so long. The first time we ever came to Universal Hollywood, we were shocked. I mean, it was just like I can’t believe. Oh, look at the coaster going over the starway. That’s so cool. This is the first time we’re seeing the Hollywood Drift coaster, y’all. That’s going to be intense. Oh my god, the coaster. Oh my god, that is so neat. One of 400 escalators down. I know. But you know what, y’all? It is opening night of this event formally, right? They’ve had team member previews and stuff like that, but the staff is working hard. Has everything run smoothly? Probably not. No operation does. So, I’m sure there’s going to be some people out there complaining and, you know, auditing every single thing, but at the end of the day, at the end of the day, you got to have fun. Yeah. Just go with the flow. Honestly, this has been so much fun so far. I got to give it up to Universal. They throw a good after hours event so far. So far, I mean, this party goes on late till 2:00 a.m. 2:00 in the morning. We’re old. We’re old men. Can we stay up that late? I don’t know. Going down to the lower lot. We’ll be able to do Dungeons and Dun Dungeons and Dragons. Look, all we’ve had is a hot totty and this margarita. We’re fine. It’s fine. And a disgusting corn dog. Ew. That was not good. Remember, phasers are set to [Music] stunning. This is the emptiest you’ll see it. We are heading into Super Nintendo World. Every time we come here, it puts a smile on our face. We love Super Nintendo World. I can’t wait to see the one in Epic Universe. Yeah, it it’s going to be a lot like the one at Universal Japan, which we’ve done. Make sure to check out our Japan vlogs. Oh my. Oh, it looks like the line for Yoshi is closed, right? What’s up with that? There are a lot of people in line. Oh my god. But he’s so cute. Oh my god. So horrible. Oh my god. Okay, so while we wait for Yoshi to come back and open up the line, he’s got to take a break. Let’s do the egg hunt. All right, so there are five eggs hidden all within Super Nintendo World. We find them all. We get a secret prize, secret meet and greet, another Yoshi. It’s a secret. All right, for the Yoshi egg hunt, they give you this cute little crown. And each egg has a secret clue. So, we got to read the clue to find the egg. And then there’s going to be a team member to give us a sticker. Once you get all five stickers, you get to go meet the secret Yoshi’s. So, let’s go find our first egg. Let’s do the first clue where two bros pose. I think I know where that is. All right, we found egg number one where Mario and Luigi meet where two bros pose. Also, spoiler alert. If you don’t want to know where the eggs are, don’t watch this part. But egg number one, right behind us? Yeah, the green egg. The green egg. Yeah. Thank you. Where’s that egg? Right back there. Yeah, the green egg. All right, so we have found two eggs so far. And listen, could you just look for the team members and then find the egg around the team member? Yes, but that’s not the fun that’s not the fun way to do the egg hunt. All right, so we have three more eggs upstairs in cold air, high above Peach’s Reach, and hidden from light sight. So, which one should we hit up next? I got to say, every time I’m in Super Nintendo World, I’m just so happy. I didn’t get to pre-order the Switch 2. That’s okay. I’m just going to go stand in line like everybody else. But Chris is filming because I get to actually play right now. Cuz one nice thing about this event is that there’s limited capacity. They told us they only sold 8,000 for tonight, which is actually pretty low. I don’t know what the standard is. You have to go somewhere else for that information. But right behind me are the [Music] blocks. That one didn’t work. Nice. Okay. Hi from Peach’s Reach. I’m thinking maybe where she hangs out or the castle. High above Peach’s Reach. There it is. The pink one. Yeah, we found it. All right, now we got to find the cast member and get our sticker. All right, let’s assess. What do we have left? We have two left. Hidden from Light’s sight and upstairs in cold air. All right. Well, they got to be close. So, let’s keep looking. All right. Upstairs in cold air. There’s obviously a little blizzard part up there. I think we go in there. We found the blue one. Number one. Oh, this one is upstairs in cold air, I guess. Nice. Thank [Music] you. Upstairs in cold [Music] air. Thank you. Y’all, this last one has a stump hidden from light sight. I don’t know where it is. Feels very embarrassing. Y’all, kudos to the team members here a to Hollywood, you know, for Universal Hollywood. They did not make this easy. No, they didn’t. But we think we figured out hidden from light sight. That would be the tunnel. But we walked through the tunnel twice. Maybe there’s a Oh, look. There’s in Maybe it’s in the exit. I don’t know. Hidden. Oh, wait. That door is open. Is that the exit, though? Well, let’s go look. Ah. Oh yeah, got it. Oh my god. Got him. We found it. Finally from light side. Yes. Our last one. The egg hunt. Nice work. And just like that, we found it. We did it. Yeah. All right. Now we got to head back up and our surprise our surprise Yoshi. Which one do you think we’re going to meet? Honestly, I don’t care. We’re gonna I want to meet them all. I know. This was really fun. This was fun, y’all. And we crowdsourced it. People were helping here in the Mushroom Kingdom. We all help each other. People were helping. It was great teamwork. All right, let’s go meet Yosh. Let’s go. For those of you coming, your random Reese’s pro tip is save the blue one for the end. It because it’s the one that’s right next to the meet and greet. So, that’s your pro tip. Okay. So, change of plans. As is the night goes, change of plans, right? So, we were going to go meet blue or pink Yoshi, which is the which is the prize for getting the scavenger hunt done. That line was redonkulously long. Like longest line I’ve seen all night. So, we decided we can’t waste all our time in line. And we’ll try that later on in the night when maybe it’s thinned out. So, we decided to come back and try to meet Yoshi for the second time. The green Yoshi. Yoshi. Yoshi. Yoshi. Hype up the crowd, man. Why is this crossover? It’s so nice to meet you, Yosh. Don’t tell the uh blue or the pink ones. Y’all, you’re my favorite. You’re the best one. Bye, Yoshi. Okay, mission accomplished. We finally met Yoshi. We met the green one. We didn’t meet the blue and the pink ones yet. Maybe later on tonight, but third time was the charm. We missed Yoshi two times. Got him on the third try. And he’s so cute. He’s so cute. Oh my god. I hope they keep this meet and greet around cuz everybody loves Yoshi. His line is always crazy long. So if you come to FanFest nights, just know Yoshi’s a very popular meet and greet character. He’s going to have a line. So get here early and just be prepared to wait a little bit. But worth it. All right, Aed. I think we’re going to try to go do Dungeons and Dragons now since we’re on the lower lot. I really want to see Xanithar the Beholder. So let’s get over there. We’re not huge DN D players and we don’t know a lot about the lore, but we do know that Water Deep is like the big one of the big cities in one of the campaigns. And we’re going to meet Xanithar the Beholder. She’s a really cool puppet that is uh built by Jim Henson Company. So, I’m excited. Okay. Oh, cool. Is this what an HHN house is like? I’m just I don’t know. This is awesome. There aren’t jump scares. I know you don’t like those. I’m not a big fan. Oh, okay. Thank you. Thank you. Got stuck. All right, adventurers. Our bad guy, Zanithar, is a real vain and insecure diva. This sounds familiar. When we find him, we’ll need your help with a vicious mockery spell. Watch and learn. I need something to play this. The master is at work. You’re a terrible fish father. Now go ahead and insult him. Give me your best insults. My monster touched me a little bit. You’re very powerful with that spell. I like it. Martels, the dragon ward no longer protects your city. water deep will burn and all of your treasure will now be mine. As an outsider coming into this experience, it was fun. It wasn’t something that I fully understood. I mean, I understood the story of what was going on inside, but in terms of its significance in the world of Dungeons and Dragons, that kind of, you know, went over my head. But in terms of the story, it’s really simplistic. The actors were really great. The special effects were wonderful. And I got to say the the puppet at the end is spectacular. It is massive. It was built by the Jim Henson company, I believe. And you can tell the attention to detail. I mean, Jim Henson, they know they know how to build puppets. And the the passion and love in that craft is really evident. Just the way it moves and it lights up and its size. I mean, it was just spectacular. Yeah. So, I’m only slightly familiar with some of the D&D lore. Like, I was familiar with what Water Deep was, and of course, Zanithar the Beholder. The attention to detail was so good. There’s so many cool D&D Easter eggs. If you’re into the DND lore, and you don’t have to be a D and D expert or even really know what it is to enjoy it. If you enjoy fantasy stories, you’re going to enjoy this immersive experience. It was so good. But yeah, the attention to detail was there. Zanithar had his pet goldfish, Silgar. And Silgar plays an important part to the story as you walk through. But oh my god, it was so good. [Music] All right, we made it to the first roll tavern. I got the red dragon’s breath and it has dry ice, so cool effect. It’s a tequila based drink. It’s got dragon fruit. It’s got ginger beer. It’s pretty strong and a little bit sweet. A little spicy from the ginger beer. The tequila, you can really taste it. And the dragon fruit makes it a little bit sweet. So, this is a really good drink. I got to give this a four out of five. It’s really cool cuz it was bubbling and like frothing after the dry ice was put in. Really neat effect. Cool presentation. So, really neat here at the First Roll Tavern right outside of Jurassic World. And we had to get something to nosh on. So, we got the fireball, which is a really cool brownie. And doesn’t look like any brownie I’ve had. So, we’re going to try it. Wow, it’s really hard. Why is it so hard? Oh, cuz it’s like frozen. Okay. Well, how are you supposed to eat this? All right, chat. It’s like frozen, so I don’t I’m just going to bite it like a savage. Here we go. Oh, that’s interesting. So, I think it’s got like a taheen center. very chocolatey, but that taheen in there is kind of throwing me off a little bit, but in a good way. Actually, I really dig this dessert. This is good. It’s kind of like a spiced chocolate, if you would. But it’s a little bit tough cuz of the outer shell, but once you get to the brownie, really nice. Honestly, it’s just good. The more that I eat it, the more I’m liking it. I’m going to give this a four out of five. This is awesome. It’s just hard to eat. So, don’t miss First Roll Tavern. It’s right where Jurassic Park Cafe usually is above Jurassic World. It’s great. The drinks were great and the food was good. So, that’s what I needed. I was getting a little tired and I needed a little pickme up. So, this did this hit the spot. But, we I think are going to go up the 9 million escalators back up to the upper lot because we have to hit probably the creme de la creme experience here at FanFest Nights. Back to the future. All right. So, we’re here at the world famous Studio Tram Tour, which has turned into Back to the Future. So, Doc Brown is going to take us back to Hill Valley in 1955, and we’re going to get to wander around Courthouse Square. The cool thing about this experience is that this is where the movie was actually filmed. So, we’re actually going to get to go to the actual Courthouse Square where Back to the Future was filmed. Walk around. I think they have it decorated like 1955 Hill Valley. There’s going to be some surprises down there, too. So, let’s get down there. The Lion Estates. We’re entering Hill Valley right now. Oh, cool. This is awesome. Wow. Okay, so this is awesome. There’s a photo op with a Delorean and Einstein the dog. That’s amazing. The real dog. There’s a real dog that you can take a photo with. Einstein. Einstein. Einstein. That’s so cool. Oh my god, Einstein’s so adorable. I know. Is this your car, buddy? Pretty cool. Pretty cool. You got a nice ride. Awesome. Awesome. Thank you. Thank you, sir. This is so cool. So, this is actually where Back to the Future was filmed and they recreated Courthouse Square. They recreated 1955 Hill Valley. There are character actors roaming around that you can interact with and they’re gonna actually recreate scenes from the movie so you can like relive it as it happens in chronological order all the way up to the clock tower getting struck by lightning. So keep your eyes and ears peeled when you’re here in Hill Valley. Look, it’s Biff. Hold on. It’s Biff. Okay. All right. And just like that, the enchantment under the sea dance has started. Let’s get over there and see if Marty plays. Okay, when you come to FanFest nights, you have to do Destination Hill Valley, the Back to the Future immersive experience, especially if you’re a fan of the movie. This is amazing. So, they actually play out vignettes from the film in real life with actors. And it’s actually so so cool cuz it feels like you’re in the movie. And they do several scenes. All in all, it takes about 45 minutes. So, plan about 45 minutes to an hour for this whole experience, but it’s worth it. This was awesome. They even do the clock tower getting hit by lightning at the end. So cool. The enchantment under the sea dance. Myth is running around. Marty McFly’s running around. Lorraine, George, interact with them. It’s so much fun. This was so cool. [Music] We have found our way to the wizarding world. How are you? Wow. And this is a Ukrainian iron belly. He’s just hatched. Um, when he’s full ground, could weigh up to six tons. Um, so luckily caught him when he’s a little bit small still. Now I am trying to transport him to the Romanian dragon sanctuary. In the meantime, I mustn’t be caught with him, though. Okay. It’s technically illegal to have a dragon out here in Old Space. All right. Wizarding World of Harry Potter, it’s always a magical time. And here at FanFest Nights, they have magical creatures out and about. So, you can see baby dragons. We saw a niffler. The one thing we didn’t get a chance to see was the aammy. If you get to see the aammy, comment down below. It looked so cool. But I think it’s just that time of night that the aammy wasn’t out. So the creatures are free roaming through the wizarding world. So you got to go and just kind of walk around and see what you can see. But I’m glad we got to see at least the niffler and we got to see the baby dragon. That was so cool. We had to stop by Sanji’s Galley on the way out of the park to get the devil’s fruit concha. So we’re here in the One Piece area and they have tons of food, drinks. They have some meet and greets here as well. If you want to meet Monkey D Luffy or Nami or Zoro, that’s really really cool. The lines are pretty long for those actually. Really popular area, the the pirate crew area. So, if you want to join the Straw Hat crew, it’s right in the front of the park. But we had to get the contra devil’s fruit contra. Am I going to get powers if I eat this devil’s fruit? I hope so. That would be neat. We wanted the cupcake, but the cupcake was sold out. So, hey, it is what it is. You know, we weren’t able to get the cookie. The out of time cookie was sold out at Mel’s Diner. The cupcake is sold out here at Sanji’s Galley, but we make do. We got the concha. Let’s try it. That’s dry as freick, but it tastes really good. Maybe. Hold on. Let me take another bite. All right. You just got to get to the filling part. That’s honestly fire. That’s so good. It’s not too sweet. It almost gives me like cinnamon roll vibes. I bet you’re going to love this. You got to take a bite of this. That is really good. Maybe one of the best things I’ve had today in the park for FanFest nights is this koncha. I think the pro tip is to split it. Oh, you could smell the devil’s fruit. M. Oh. Oh. Oh. Y’all, it could be that I’m really hungry. The food has been not great, but this I don’t know if it’s because I’m kind of starving. We barely ate anything. Like, we ate a few bites of everything. I think the burger is the one thing that we completed all the way through, but this, y’all, run here. Run and get this. Those of you that tried the cupcake, comment down below. That looked really good. I mean, we only have one day here. We’re making the best of it, but wow, I’m so happy right now. And I’m really curious what kind of powers I’m going to get. But yeah, I’m going to destroy this. This is a five out of five. This means the world to me, Chris, that you would give me this award for best husband. What? Oh, what? You don’t need a statue to know that. Yes, I do. Okay. I need accolades. Got it. You need physical proof. Yeah. Yeah. All right. So, the question you’re all wondering is, is FanFest nights worth it? So, a standard ticket for GA for FanFest nights will cost you about $75, which honestly is a pretty good deal. There are so many different types of tickets, too. From 2:00 p.m. early entry to just regular early entry, you can get express pass. There’s VIP tours. So, there’s a ton of different ticket options. Honestly, if you need help booking Universal FanFest nights, hit up a bet. He’s a great travel agent and he’s the one who booked our trip and I didn’t have to worry about anything. It was seamless. But anyway, go to random recess.com if you want more information about that. But is FanFest nights worth it? I would say for $75, absolutely. You get so much here. They offer you so many different things to do that are unique to FanFest nights. So, I would definitely spring for it. As far as after hours events go, this is one of the better ones we’ve been to. This was so cool. The interactive immersive experiences were really, really awesome. The food was okay, but the drinks were pretty good. And there’s some really awesome photo ops, too. So, if you’re a fan of Dungeons and Dragons or anime like One Piece, Star Trek, Yoshi, Hello, this is the place for you. Now, I don’t think that Express Pass was worth it. That actually cost like another $100 or something per ticket. You don’t need that. We never used it. Um, and the weight times are all super duper low. So, I would say avoid Express Pass. That’s probably a waste of money for this event, but definitely get a ticket cuz this event is amazing. So, can’t wait to see if they do it next year and what IPs they’re going to bring next year. All right, everybody. That’s going to do it for this recess. We hope you’ve enjoyed FanFest Nights here with us. You’ve experienced it with us the entire time. Hit that subscribe button.
