    It would have been cool if you included some screen grabs from the film just to show how these places fit in the movie.

      +Doug Vandegrift I would have loved that too. I've seen it done on other vid's along this line and it is so cool to see the contrast.

      @ComputerLearning0 Před 8 lety +1

      +Joe Mamma I agree. Adam has included reference clips in the past but being on the road the way he is he may not have been able to do it for this particular video. Personally I don't know how he manages to edit all his regular videos because if I were touring the country in a van it would be really tough for me to take the time to sit for hours editing clips, locating reference video to insert at just the right place, and putting together all the content he does :)

    Oh man...this movie. You have no idea how emotionally attached to this movie I am. The dad in this movie is 100% my dad. This made a HUGE impact on my & my sisters when it first came out,we were blown away. My dad has been telling wild tall tales since we were kids. We all agreed when my dad dies were going to gather together and watch this movie in his honor

    • @spiraloutkeepgoing
      @spiraloutkeepgoing Před 7 lety

      The people in the area and the owner of the property wanted it to be left to turn it into a tourist attraction and it still is but due to lack of visitors it had fallen to decay. Nothing really there anymore but the owner still maintains the property and you're still allowed to visit with permission.

    • @kristienelson2989
      @kristienelson2989 Před 6 lety

      My husband and I are actually living in our motor home here (until we can find some land to build on)
      I can look to my left and see Jackson Lake and if I look to my right..... what's left of spectre...... there are 24 goats out here on the island. Fun place to visit. Very popular for photo shoots. Only 3 bucks to enter and it's very well kept! The owners are amazing! If you will go like the FB page "Jackson Lake Island" you can see the new baby goat pics! As well as anything else Spectre related.

    Wow! I didn't know that was a real town specifically built for filming the movie, that's pretty crazy. Wonder how much that all cost. But it's also really weird to see an incomplete faux town that was never meant to be a real town just sitting to rot like an actual abandoned town. It's art imitating life I guess.
