    Awesome video, I like learning what Micheal shows us and talks about. The girl on the swing art was really good.
    Did you guys see The Batman??
    It was creatively done, and they tried their best but my favourite Batman was Christian Bale.
    I’m looking forward to see Morbius with super talented Jared !
    I loved him in ‘The little things’ with Denzel Washington- fabulous thriller/ mystery- loved the tricky unanswered ending, I still don’t know who the killer was.💐

    Enjoyed this, thanks for sharing. Never heard of that Angel Flight, but it looks good. I'd do it if I went back to LA. Interesting you pointed out that information thing about the Bradbury Building, as I thought of the same thing in Rome. In Rome, there are many signs with information on famous films shot at a particular place. I usually try to get a shot of them when I see them.

    Oddly enough, near my location of Southern Wales Banksy did a graffiti picture of a kid catching snow in his mouth on one corner of a garage. And on the other side revealed to viewers that the snow he was catching wasn't in fact snow but ash raining down from a local smokestack. See, the very location he chose was near a large Steel Works in a place called Port Talbot birthplace of Anthony Hopkins. And since then has subsequently been sold for a six figure sum to an art collector with half the garage being lifted by crane and later transported to his gallery in England.

    So cool. I'm in England, and he did one in my hometown a stone's throw from my flat. Now, there's another one close by to where I live now too. I suspect he lives not that far away from where I live now. We also have something like the Angel's Flight in my hometown. It's called "The Leas Lift".
    Side note: I'm going through a really tough time right now. Little cheers me up. I'm chronically ill and disabled, life can be very isolating. I love travel and explore, but I can't anymore. Thank you so much for doing what you do. It helps.

    Banksy's real name is Robin Gunningham. He's a street artist and activist who originally went by the name Robin Banks, and then he took on the more famously known alias, Banksy.

    I had learned about banks while watching the BBC’s satirical series, ‘The Windsors’, when Eugenia is hired by an art gallery and she thinks a spray painted penis is a Banksy. That led me down a rabbit hole and learned all aboutBanksy. I found it absolutely fascinating. Thank you for this great tour.

    Hi, i’m big fan of your work. You dig to the end to find details of any location. I would like to suggest a video. The location of the video clips under the bridge RHCP and the cemetery location for November Rain GnR. I’ve tried to research but what i found it was vague and uncompromised information. But I’m sure both were recorded in LA. Thanks !

    I'm pretty sure that overgrown park is from 500 Days of Summer where they sit on that middle bench together. If you look up a photo you can see the darker brown rectangle building in the distance just like in your shot. Last I was there the park had been already been closed for years.

    So, Grimmlife. I was having a hard day the other day. You know those days when your microwave dies, the people who deliver don't follow directions, your perishables are outside spoiling because you are using a walker and can't get down the stairs to them, you need a redelivery and it will take hours and the shopping app says so many different things so you don't know WHEN you will get things? Yeah. I was having one of THOSE days. And I thought. " What can I do to destress"? Grimm! It released the tension. Thank you for that.
