Hello. My name is Brenda. I like making videos about obscure pop culture history and defunct stores/themeparks.
This Isn't the Video You Want (Bigboy Graveyard Preview)
TH-cam said I had to upload a video or I would lose my monetization and my adsense, and that stuff took SO LONG to get in the first place so, I'm not losing it.

A Brief History of the Pokemon Center New York
มุมมอง 55K3 ปีที่แล้ว
For a brief moment in time, the United States had their own Pokemon Center. Opening in 2001, closed in 2005, the pokemon center NYC left a lasting legacy, and shaped the future for all Pokemon Centers outside of Japan. This video would not have been possible without the Pokemon Center New York Historical website. pokemoncenternewyork.com/ Retro Alli's video on Pokemon Center NYC. th-cam.com/vid...

This was an incredibly wild ride. By the way, my favorite animatronic is The King. He’s nine feet tall. He is 700 entire pounds. He is a BIG BOY. I am really angry that I found out about this after the video was done. Turns out, Charles Entertainment Cheese has to be destroyed beyond recognition too. www.atlasobscura.com/articles/chuck-e-cheese-corporate-policy-destroying-head "Former employees...

I don't know if this makes any sense, but here you go. None of my friends from Battle Creek contributed, so you get me talking about how much I dislike corporations for a bit. You've been warned.
At Least We Tried EP 1: Six Flags Autoworld
มุมมอง 10K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Autoworld is an integral part of Flint's history. A story of gross government mismanagement, and ill founded optimism. I lived in Flint, and I wanted to tell the world about this little known theme park. Thank you.
40 years ago. Great memories for that brief time.
5 hour Woodsy history when?!?!?!?
I am a Flint, Michigan resident and I had no idea this place even existed until today (6-17-24)
I loved this store beyond belief as a child. Just went to the one in Burbank and it really hit home.
You’ve been busy for 3 YEARS
Woodsy honestly should have held on to both his old design and original "Give a hoot! Don't pollute." motto. He really should also have been used in advertisements to this day like Smokey Bear, such as ones where he teaches children about the three major pollution types: land, air, and water (not counting one water pollution ad way back from 1986), as well as noise, light, thermal, and radioactive pollution. (With air, not just land, being in the natural areas as well, that would simply be a fine reason for the "Give a hoot! Don't Pollute." slogan to remain...)
Mr. Mackey: No---no more Woodsy!
Glad to see you’re not Dead 👍🗿👍
I actually cannot wait
I'm an avid listener (and supporter) of Max Fun podcasts, and have heard the SHNM promo a bunch of times, but never got around to listening. Didn't realize that was you, and have now subscribed so hard!
Yes it's me and my good friend Austin! I recommend starting from the Max Fun episodes (barney and onward), and Rocket Rods is one of my favs I've done!
incredible
Any video is a good video from ya 👍
all of you are being so supportive. <3. Thank you!
@@SnellbyKay hey your welcome Ms Kay ;3
This IS what I’ve been waiting for
Hell yeah
This is the video I wanted! Thank you <3
It NEVER failed! It was the BEST thing Michigan had!
It was doomed from the very beginning. Former Flint, Michigan Resident 1979-1994
Did you know there was Bubba Bears pizza theatre in Rancho Mirage?
Woodsy the owl is a child molester
As soon as I saw the picture I knew it was my major magics 🥹 I miss it
I thought south park made him up thank for the video!
Duolingo reminds me of woodsy lol
I never liked the more anthropomorphic Woodsey. It seemed like a human with a deformed head. Since there is no antipollution mascot today, the government, instead, uses intense fear tactics. What is employed to keep the environment clean is an authoritarian, "Clean now! Or, die soon! You are destroying the planet and it is your fault! Your children will die of things you do today! It has never been this bad in the past!" All that is spread are terrifying lies. The planet is far better than it was 50 years ago, even just 40 years ago. I traveled a lot as a lad, with my parents. North America was a giant landfill-like, dismal, disaster, except northern Canada. I remember whirlwinds of garbage, freeways lined with trash, brown air hovering above cities. All of that is gone, with making only rare appearances today. Northern Canada is now eden-like in cleanliness. I made many efforts to move there and have finally moved there in 2004.
that backstory was made for the rockstar era of chuck e cheese. during their 30th anniversary, (back when avenger chuck still roamed stores) it was said in the song he had a family and wasn't an orphan. So this makes rockstar and avenger 2 separate entities.
7:19 Barbra was a retrofit of billbob and beachbear had a retrofit too
I know the company that did the costume of Woodsy. This company was known as Fantasy Fair. A company that existed in San Fernando Rd. in California. They play a part in the story of Knott's Bear-y Tales and its design among other parks...
That's cool info! I might have to look into this in the future!
One of my earliest memories is sitting in that Marvin the Martian rocket in the WB store in the mall. I used to think about that a lot and wonder if I made it up. This was a great video about the store. I also fondly remember coming home from the mall with a Powerpuff girls scooter. I’m not sure if it was also from the WB store but maybe it was since they owned the rights. Also another Hannah Barbara factoid is that the Kings Island Amusement Park in Cincinnati ohio used to have their kids area fully themed with Hanna Barbara characters. There was a scooby doo haunted house ride that was particularly fun. King’s island was bought by another company and then cedar fair and then the kids area was eventually changed to Nickelodeon characters, and then to snoopy.
Thanks for showing, what is your opinion of: "Roger and I" documentary? Some think it mocked Flint citizens, however personally, I found them brave and struggling with an impossible situation.
Fascinating. I love this book and movie. Wish I could have visited.
Pasquale is offensive as hell, and not for any reason involving race or stereotypes. It's for calling that pizza "Italian".
10:10 did they commission Chris Chan to draw that?!
If I Could Buy Major Magic It A Be A More Update Children Entertainment, I Live In The Same Town As The Oldest One When I Moved To Clinton Twp Michigan With My Parents It Closed A Month After A Month After We Moved To Our House There COVID-19 Started, I Live Around The Corner From That Major Magic
9:30 Literally everything Snellby said is 100% false. Why would Pokémon ever die down? It’s SO popular!
Good little documentary, the pacing and editing is great
Growing up in southeast Michigan in the 80's you are correct, nobody is going to go out of their way to visit Flint. I'm just now learning about Autoworld today 40 years later.
As a resident of the state of Oregon,I grew up with the Tillamook cheese factory tour, which is located at the actual creamery. Because the Tillamook Creamery association is owned by its members (the local dairy farmers), it can't relocate or outsource it production. I can't imagine how boring it would be to go to Battle Creek, only to no see an actual cereal production line.
I loved Autoworld. There was an indoor Ferris wheel that was so much fun. I was so sad when it closed.
The Clinton Township location was a huge part of my childhood, sad that I never got to take my kids to a Major Magics
Am i the only one that wants a SGT Pepperoni animatronic?
For some reason I wonder if the Garfield phones were ever meant to be sold in France to begin with
I was so bummed when they closed.
This unlocked a core memory of me getting lost in the play maze at Bullwinkle's when I was like 4 years old
Went there with my grandparents in 2002
Well I know who Woodys is but never heard of Johnny so I don’t care what they say Woodsy is #1 in my book
I always wanted to go to pokemon center but couldn't get my parents to take me on the 2hour drive to NYC that clock looks awesome
How much now do you think an old Woodsy Costume is worth? You know there maybe some still out there somewhere 🧿
I'm not sure where else to say this but going off your YT Banner I am looking forward to the video you do on the Big Boy Graveyard. Those statues are very interesting especially knowing that one of the statues could still be in the woods along with its burger. (The one on its side)
That chuck e cheese should have gotten closed for messing with the rock a fire and fatz
There was a Pokémon Center around my area that wasn’t New York and I bought stuff like shirts,figures,and cards Sadly it’s not there anymore
The big legacy of these retail stores has to be the frustrated Mad Magazine editor who made an entire article taking a giant dump on the WB stores with the most vulgar artwork imaginable.
I loved Woodsey in the 70s. Thank you for putting this video together for all of us Woodsey fans.🦉🦉
