"Cap" (Jaymes Logan Williamson) has been producing content for over a decade, and I've been a fan and viewer for nearly that long and beyond. They live in Overland Park, Kansas. Of course, MCI is their local airport when traveling anywhere by plane. Geeks not Nerds, The Midwest In Panels documentary and special features, Spawn Year, etc.

Another channel I watch occasionally, who's also an aviation travel enthusiast and makes videos like this. A resident of either KS or MO, since
MCI must be their local airport too. Always starting and ending there.

History in the making. 65 million years, 80 million years.-Incredible Hulk coaster across the lagoon.
-Jurassic Park: River Adventure ride POV & line queue/pre-show-Music scores/loops by John Williams: "The Trek", "Finding Camp Jurassic", "The Raptor Room", "End Credits".
-UPDATE: Jurassic World: The Ride has opened at USH and is in full operation. It's still the same "Shoot the Chute" water ride, but now with updated special effects, a new plot line, and new aesthetics. Mosasaurus!! Indominus Rex vs T-Rex!!

-PREVIOUSLY: August 30th, 2018. Goodbye and Farewell to the ORIGINAL Jurassic Park: The Ride at Universal Studios Hollywood. An absolute CLASSIC has been laid to rest. (R.I.P. June 21st, 1996 to September 3rd, 2018) That includes "Jurassic Park in the Dark" during Halloween Horror Nights every year. We LOVED you!! Gonna MISS You!! Anxious & Excited for the future!! Vlog, POV.
-I came back to the Burbank/Hollywood area in southern California, to visit USH again and enjoy my last few/final three ride-through's on Jurassic Park: The Ride, and film my POV's to be uploaded to YouTube. I used both my Iphone SE (outside the ride) and my new GoPro Hero 2018 (queue/pre-show & on the ride). Cheers for the SINGLE RIDER line!!
-I regret not filming on the ride all these years (until this occasion), when the audio, special effects, & animatronics were operating at their fullest potential. Sadly, in the past few years, despite minor refurbishments, many aspects of the ride experience were allowed to degrade or no longer work, etc. (ex. the falling jeep). The quality was suffering and greatly diminished. So the road to extinction was a long and heavily traveled one.

-Yes, I spent a long time down in the Lower Lot of the theme park to take it all in, one last time: the atmosphere, the iconic music score by John Williams, the ride splashdown from the side and overhead, the narration, the gift shop, and walking under the entrance. We loved you, iconic T-Rex, and the 85ft drop. There was a lot of merchandise for 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom', of course.
-I got very up close to see the Raptor Encounter w/ "Blue" the Velociraptor in action! He interacts with people who really want their photo taken. They also also were instructed by InGen employees and trainers. "Blue" likes to snarl and yell sometimes.
*Filmed on Thursday, August 30th, 2018. Since I couldn't get this video edited/uploaded either before or on September 3rd, you are watching this after the ride is officially CLOSED forever, EXTINCT, GONE for good, truly an ancient relic of the past. So please enjoy it as a piece of NOSTALGIA, a LOOK BACK at an adventure cemented in time. The situation is bittersweet, but we can't complain. I'll say, 22 years is a damn good run. Just think, the 'WaterWorld' live show is STILL operating at full potential, more popular than ever, and it's about the same age. We're extremely lucky for that. I'm grateful.
UPDATE: Jurassic World: The Ride has opened at USH and is in full operation. It's still the same "Shoot the Chute" water ride, but now with updated special effects, a new plot line, and new aesthet

I covered all the Marvel stuff and most of DC, but what's still left is the remaining DC stuff and the "other"/independent stuff to round it out.

I show the covers/backs, advertisements (ads!!), various pages and dialogue.
