Why would they butcher such a iconic place. They should have kept the room and made it an attraction
Right?!?! I got to see that stretch of Ocean Blvd mid 80s
Was pretty beat up and just starting to be renovated
However the buildings were all still painted in those wonderful colors
I know all the white is modern and all but really they need to restore it back to those iconic Miami art deco colors
Fountain Bleu as well
Since Goldfinger , the poolside beach cabanas were sooooo Miami
Modernization isn't always a good idea
True story, I lived in Naples Fl in the early 80s I worked at a new movie theater there called The Pavilion. Scarface was playing there. One night Al Pacino and Stephen Baur came there to watch Scarface. They wanted to see the audience reaction. Long story short, He was very nice Mr Pacino. Signed a movie poster we had for Scarface. Said a line from the movie and gave us girls a kiss. ❤️😊. Thanks for the great Vlog And Chris the girl
Amazing story! Thank you for sharing that with me and watching. :)
Why would they go the opposite side of the state when the movie primarily took place in Miami?
@@IIIIIIIllIIIlto keep it somewhat low key
@@pakulera4663 yeah bull lol
No you didn't you ain't getting attention
I'm so sad to see that so many Miami Vice locations have been lost over time. The OCB Building is a great example of this. It's a real shame that they've now destroyed the only original Scarface filming location in Miami too.
Can't believe it's been 40 years! Time sure does fly.
Great video TJ, enjoyed it!
The director is Brian de Palma and not Oliver Stone
Dude I gotta say, I really freakin live the way you put this together. No clickbait, STRAIGHT to the point, and totally outstanding attention to detail which made this video super kick ass. I was actually right there on the street earlier today for the first time ever!! I stopped, and was like wait, this is THE scene.
Thanks man! Fantastic video and the easiest subscribe ever!
Scarface is one of the greatest films ever made, thanks for sharing this! Well done
I loved the video, I visited Ocean Drive today and went to the CVS and the Carlyle, but your video showed so much more and was excellent!
I used to deliver to the Kapok Tree and still drive by there daily. It's pronounced KA-Pock.
Wow Frank's apartment is also in the opening of Miami Vice I've always loved it!
Say hello to my little vlog! Thanks for watching. Here’s my last Miami video in case you missed the notification…th-cam.com/video/bYhwY5hohT4/w-d-xo.html
Awesome filming locations! You did tons of research, and it shows. 👏👏👏 So glad the CVS embraced the locale, and it hadn't changed too much.
Thank you, and enjoy Miami. 🤗
Ya'll stay safe! 🙌
Thank you Kimberly i always love when the places embrace the filming location’s
My man Tony Montana made one hell of a renovation when he Bought the Sun Ray hotel ( If you haven't played the Scarface game .. u will never understand )
Just fyi, Marta didn't have an Uzi. It was a MAC-10.
This video is awesome, thank you for making it.
Most scenes were Filmed in California.
These locations are coming soon on GTA 6 I guess 😁.
Great job Jay and Cris
Haven't seen any other TH-camr go through it so thoroughly. Including some of your fellow colleagues lol
Absolutely loved that movie!
Thanks for taking us along. Really enjoyed this video
Thanks so much happy to hear you enjoyed it!
nice job that was fun. btw its not kay-pik, its kay-pok, as in tupac. the kaypok tree was a famous over the top chain from the 1960s. the most famous of them all was actually the kapok tree in clearwater near tampa.
dont u mean brian de palma movies not oliver stone.. de palma was known for his signature slow moving wide shots.oliver stone only wrote the screen play. no idea why u keeep giving him credit wen de palman pacnio and marty bregmen were also heavily involved in making the movie
it actually pisses me off they got rid of such an iconic place... and for what... a stupid store..
Wow wow Scarface is one of my favorites . Gonna have to check this out when down there lol
It’s crazy how the worlds losing its color 🤦🏽♂️
Awesome video and your matchups are always amazing! Chris the girl was looking beautiful you both were wearing perfect Miami outfits you look like could be in the movie! Segway funny back in the day I knew a girl who was in that movie I'm thinking she was probably en extra or something I still haven't seen it I'm a master procrastinator haha
I've stayed at a bunch of hotels on that strip/right next to that hotel, the memories I have of that beachfront street dating back to 1991 and up until now , priceless
That was amazing babe, great job!!! I'm so proud of you!!!
Hello Chris the girl, you was great on Tampa Jays video and we are going to watch yours next. Your a great couple and we are glad you two found each other. In ten days my wife & I will be married 20 year's!
@@clearwaterdaddy9306 thank you so much!!
Thank you beautiful! I love you!
If I had this property, I would have kept it as the way it was. I even wouldn't dare to change the colours.
So happy you got to do Scarface filming locations love that movie
I have to say that your Scarface video is one of the best TH-cam videos I've watched in a while. I'm a big Scarface fan and to see the area's in Miami where the movie was made had me smiling throughout your presentation. Very well executed in every respect. Our national news media could take a lesson from how well you explained the movie. Being a Tampa guy I also love your other videos like the Manatee River bridge, (Orange Blossom Special). Keep up the great work and I'll stay a loyal follower.
Thank you so much man! That’s a huge compliment and I appreciate it! I had a blast tracking these down I am a big fan of the movie too. I appreciate you always living vicariously through my videos. It means a lot to me! Much ahead my friend!
Very detailed and worth the watch ! Well done brother
Thank you
I love these pilgrimages to iconic movie land/scenemarks. My "seared in my young brain" movie was Taxi Driver and Scarface was second.
This was directed by Brian DE Palma.
He did a fantastic job
Thanks for this inpressions. Im a
Big big fan of this movie and i have long wondered what has happened in these places over the years. Kind of sad that everything is changing so quickly. Thank you for the great video.
Love from germany
Thank you !
32:50 Just a small correction. This is a 1963 Cadillac Series 62. Thanks a lot for the thorough tour! I thought it was only gonna be the Sun Ray motel.
I thought the hotel scene was filmed in santa monica California
No, Miami
Awesome filming location Jay! Great movie. I will say the bathroom scene freaked me out when I first saw it. lol
It is probably the most horrific scene outside of a horror movie. Thanks buddy
why is it closed off? the stairs
Yea I watched them film it dude under bridge where they filmed riots yea man it’s crazy it was 1983 I’m from Miami and also lived in fort laudable. My Cubano friends told me that they filming new movie dammm long time ago. I love Miami 😂
It's not "Oliver Stone's Scarface." It's Brian DePalma's Scarface. Olive Stone wrote the screenplay, but it's the director that gets the credit as being his film.
Scareface is very interesting movie but I was wondering if you can do a location for brotherhood of justice Keanu Reeves Lori Locklin 1986 it was filmed in Santa Cruz California but they made it look like it was made in St. Lucia California can you find this one
I love Miami. I used to live in Lil Havana a coupla blocks off Domino Park and play chess with the older guys there. When I was not in school or working I spent my time on Miami Beach (I was fishing...but not for fish..Bow..Chika..WoW...Wow)
❤❤ welcome to Miami welcome to Miami Tampa J you're awesome I'm in Jensen Beach right now I will not Mine taking a trip to Miami It looks pretty happening it looks lit😊😊
Please do some Miami Vice locations, Jay, although I suppose you don''t do TV shows, right?
C'est quand même incroyable de voir les endroits 40ans après, et à quoi ressemble tous ses lieux, et le garage de frank lopez ?
Nice. Thx for nice movie location video. Maybe You will find locations in Miami from the nice 80s mobie "Band of the hand" from 1988?
Great video
Question: where at end of video on the rocks with building behind “ where was that exact location?” It was beautiful picture
The room where the chainsaw scene was filmed, was actually filmed in California. The location was used but not the interior
2025 Brickell Avenue condos is shown also on Miami Vice opening titles.
FD: had family friends living in Miami in 1980. they left once the 'outbreaks of violence started'. Reagan gave all of them Amnesty (yrs later). Carter (is not feeling well) allowed the (floaters/boaters/rafters/etc) Land and take up 'under overpass' residence in florida's miami // it is a lot safer than back then
Nice video , a lot information ℹ️ I visited yesterday cuz this video help me! Brian de Palma or Oliver stone?
This is so so cool. I love all the Miami Deco architecture. I just did a cover of the song Shake It Up from the chainsaw scene- made a whole 80s music video. Would love if you checked it out!
This also made me homesick! It was awesome thank you. BTW the original Kapok Tree Inn was in Clearwater until 1991..
Thanks man! It’s still there it’s now a Sam Ash music store. Cris and I were there the other night before the Mellencamp show’
The remake out did the original. The real Scarface was a black & white movie made in NY. Some of the lines came from the original.
Hard times man. Respect for your Pops
We were at the CVS today, saw your Rays hat, so I had to check out a fellow Tampa fan!
You’re not pronouncing the K-pock-tree properly. I’ve eaten there many times. crazy place
Great video brother. Scarface is one of my favorite movies, so I think it's really cool that you were able to see all these filming locations. I really enjoyed watching this video.
Strange fact that the actual chainsaw scene was filmed in Los Angeles.
By the way Miami Beach Miami itself is the biggest cat crab you'll ever see
That used to be a Johnny rockets hamburger stand back in the early 90’s
Such a shame that such a beautiful building and location was torn down
Great video. 👍 Marta actually had a MAC-10.
You should do a video on The FBI fatal shooting in 1986
Great job, my dad worked at the Fountain Bleu when they filmed there. I was just a kid but spent a lot of summers in the cave pool. Also the CVS use to be Johnny Rockets, you could eat and watch the movie playing on a mounted TV. The 80’s was crazy down there.
That’s amazing! Very cool you remember the volcano pool that must’ve been fun
Well put together couldn't do it a better way I understand a lot of things change but it sucked too see how things had to go especially where the scene on getting slapped they forsure ruined that vibe
I was born down the st from the house wich is located off the 101 hw in montecito ca.
Thanks for the video, it's such a great movie! I wish they'd bring the color back to Miami, though. All those pastel buildings in the 80s are just white now.
Thanks so much John
It's always awesome when you do filming locations of movies that you really liked!
Thanks for always watching my friend! Appreciate you!
This is so informative. Awesome. Great content. Thanks for your videos.
Thank you for watching!
It's sad that it was changed n nomore access to the spot of the room n bathroom of Scarface movie
They should of left the hotel the same as the scarface movie.
The chain saw scene hotel is now just a construction skeleton
Great part man!
WRONG ITS ''"Chi Chi, Chi Chi Get The YaYo""
Hello from Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park 🏞️..great job as always
Jmmy 😢😮😮
23
It’s been a cvs for at least 4 years. Went to visit and say those stairs
Why did they block the building?
All that yayo money built that skyline
Thank you!
Also has GTA Vice city vibes
Best game ever
@@TampaJay yep 👍🏾
Nothing much they change 😮
The Carlyle is The Birdcage
It’s “Chi Chi get the yayo”
Just an FYI…the girl in the blue bikini that Manny flirts with in the chainsaw scene went missing shortly after this movie. She hasn’t been seen or heard from since.
😮
Cocaine is a helluva drug
Another great video! I absolutely love your filming locations! Awesome as usual 🤩
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it such a great film!!
I’m sure Miami Vice shot a bunch of scenes on Ocean Dr. around the same location as the Chainsaw scene.
They sure did
Entertaining video my friend, always Scarface blow the mind of every single fan of this great movie. I’ll be in touch with your channel, best regards!
Don’t forget gta 6 too
VICE City place
Cici get the yayo
Great video Jay! Really loved it; haven’t seen these in person in 15 years. Just wanted to give some love to Brian De Palma who directed the movie and Oliver Stone who wrote it.
Thanks for watching man glad you enjoyed it. I think I accidentally* cut out the part where I was praising Brian as well! I’m a big fan.
@@TampaJay love De Palma too. I figured something like that happened because I know you are such a big movie fan. De Palma deserves the love
Whenever I’m in Miami, I go on early morning bike rides across the Rickenbacker Causeway, it’s definitely a top spot for cyclists in the early morning hours.
That’s crazyyyyyy
فيلم تحفه | thanks
Oh wow! I love this.. Scarface is my all time favourite movie & I just got back from Miami a few days ago... I had NO IDEA this CVS was the hotel from the movie!!! I went right by😢
Thanks!
Alpacino ❤❤❤
While near Miami, you have to see a place called "Aerojet" that is south of homestead Florida in everglades swampland. Its a huge complex of a dozen or more buildings spread way apart in the middle of nowhere. Its been abandoned since the 60's when they mixed solid rocket fuel in one set of buildings, and fired the rockets from the most remote buildings and silo. Urban explorers go there sometimes but you need a bicycle or its a long walk down a long road that fish and wildlife used excavators to tear up in places so you can't drive there. Buildings are open, no doors mostly, and lots of cool rocket making stuff.
GTA 6 vibes
What about Tonys mom house? Where was that in LA?
That was in LA
