    Madame Tussauds seemed like they were featuring the celebrities themselves while the Hollywood Wax Museum were featuring their respective stunt doubles.

    The quality of the head sculpts at Tussauds is light years better than at Hollywood. The Tussauds figures look as if they might begin speaking to you any second. The quality of the figures at Hollywood Wax museum varies wildly, from "pretty good", to "just OK", to "Old Navy mannequin head." (True story, the Star Trek display at the Hollywood Wax Museum in Pigeon Forge made me genuinely angry, it was so bad.) Tussauds takes the cake. Er, croissant.

    As someone who loves Breakfast at Tiffany's, she doesn't actually have a full meal in the store. She just eats a danish and drinks a cup of coffee outside the display window on the street in the opening scene. And that's the closest she actually got to eating breakfast at Tiffany's

    Audrey Hepburn, as Holly Golightly, began her day standing in front of Tiffany’s window, while drinking coffee and eating a danish. Therefore, the movie was called “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.”

    Greetings Jacob, the quality of the Madame Tussaud's wax museum and superior details of the figures was 100% better then the other museum for us. The only thing we didn't see as authentic was Captain Kirk's bushy hair, nor did they capture the sexy quality of Rhett Butler (Clark Gable). Thank you for this fun, fun adventure....an adventure we would never be able to do in what is left in our lifetime~ Be Safe~

    Ah, Bette Davis. Never underestimate her, nor her eyes, as sung by Kim Carnes. The pose and clothes she is in remind me a lot of the film "all about eve", which i saw for the first time only recently and in which she stole my heart (and returned it after a good grown up treatment).
    Fortunately, the camel was either a wax figure or a taxidermy, and you got dismounted without physical harm. You forgot to say the famous words from Omar Shariff: "Hat, hat, hat!". Those would have made the camel rise and speed of in the direction you steer him.

    Nice side-by-side! Hats off to the sculptors. They do a fantastic job. I hope some of them make cosplay appearances. They'd blow some of the competition out of the water. It was nice to see Depp depicted in both of them from "Secret Window". It's an underrated film. The Tussauds has better aesthetics for the figures, but the Hollywood has better theming, IMO. I guess it's kind of a wash. However, the artists from Tussauds nailed the non-wax look, with amazing detail.
    The "worst Batman" award was pretty epic.
    As always, a quality upload. Keep it up, my friend!

    I've never been to Madame Tussauds which is a wax museum that's located in San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf neighborhood before, but I hear that it's similar to Hollywood Wax Museum which is located in both Pigeon Forge, TN and Myrtle Beach, FL. I think that the actor who was seen on the surfboard was Rob Lowe, because he was quite the Hollywood heartthrob in the old days back when he was a young man. Bruno Mars is the name of the artist that we recognize in the mirrored section of famous musicians. In my opinion, I think that the Hollywood Wax Museum in Pigeon Forge, TN is better, because you get to see a lot of wax figures of celebrities in many different exhibits. Please keep these videos coming.

I love the selfie opp in the elevator at Madame Taussaud's. I wish you had did a close up of Denzel Washington as Det. Alonzo Harris from Training Day- he got his first major award for that role. The King Kong at Hollywood W.M. was better and the figure at the 39:57 mark is Bruno Mars. Be safe Jacob, see you in the next one!

    Madame T’s figures are more realistic and you can tell who they are, Hollywood’s were harder to recognize and looked off somehow. The best/worst wax museums are those historical figure ones in the dark tableaus, sometimes they have nametags so you know who they are supposed to be and are creepy looking.
