Did the tour in 1979 looks the same as it did them

The Universal Studios Hollywood Studio Tour tram route hasn't really changed in the last thirty years. Minor changes depending on filming on the lot as well as the various tram specific attractions. For the most part, you see a lot of the studio on the tram. If you're going to visit Universal, we highly recommend the VIP Experience. Yes, it's a bit pricey but in our opinion completely worth it. You ride in a trolly with a 15 person maximum and stop at various locations on the backlot. You can touch and feel the facades and then you get VIP (Front of The Line) access to (most) rides, shows, and attractions in the theme park. A Studio Guide stays with you for most of the day and walks you around to the various attractions. They're the most knowledgeable about Universal Studios, filmmaking, television production and a whole lot more. Some of the Studio Guide are active actors, writers, and producers who have the first-hand experience in Hollywood. Here's a good video explaining the VIP Experience kzread.info/dash/bejne/lHWqs9SYYM2nnZM.html

No way it looks the SAME as it did in 1979 jackass. Because in 1979 they did not have the Back to the Future set, nor the War of the Worlds movie set or the Ronny Howard "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" set. Nor did they have a Stephen Spielberg street that intersects Jimmy Stuart street. You're such a buffoon.

Moral of the story: Always let young passionate people sneak in. You never know if they gonna become iconic movie makers.

Bossman wrong. Spielberg has always been driven by the energy of his soul, the universal energy, doing what he loves and behaving like a free spirit, since he was a little kid.

I was a young kid trying to break into the entertainment industry in the mid 80s and got a "Day Job" at Universal Studios. The Amblin Entertainment complex, behind it's own mysterious gates on the Universal back lot, was the highest on my list of places I wanted to see, but it was very off limits to most. One day I got notice late in the day that someone needed an urgent package delivered to Amblin and I was chosen to deliver it!! When I got there in my studio car the gate was open but no one was there.. I did however get ON THE GROUNDS of the Mysterious Forbidden Amblin!! I was like a little child in a fairy tale.. Not that there was a spectacular amount to see from the outside, though I could peer in closer than I ever imagined. It was just such a fabled place where others could not go.. and suddenly I could... I have worked in the entertainment industry for many years now.. What a great time that was..

For someone so slight in build and soft-spoken, Speilberg has been a world-changer and a giant for 3 generations of movie fans.

Steven Spielberg seems down to earth because his creativity and making movies is his passion, the money was just was an after effect of his talent.

his vibes are immaculate, he’s such an inspiration.

This is so amazing! Universal isn’t the same without it

Spielberg is such a legend man, there’ll never be another. He’s up there with Kubrick.

What a priceless and one of a kind tour that was! Way better than a noisy crowded tram. I was fortunate to meet both Steven Speilberg and Jimmy Stewart at the 1990 opening day of Universal Studios Orlando. Ironically, I was a young film student too back then. I luckily knew a few people working at Universal and found out Speilberg had a private residence/office while he was at the theme park. So, I took a chance and waited near there, hoping to just get a photo of him. I got my wish and more when he soon appeared. I told him I was a film student and he graciously took a few minutes to talk to me about my film school and we also discussed technically a few shots from his most recent film, "Always." That day was definitely one of the coolest moments of my life.

Someone should really tell them that another golf cart has been tailing them the whole time.

Spielbergs voice makes me so happy for some reason

One of the high points of my life, 1977, a friend of a friend had business at Werner brothers studio's which at the time was a very closed lot to the general public. We got on the studio lot, my friend and his friend that had a reason to be there taking care of the business in just 30min. We spent the rest of the day running around the studio lot, eating at the commissary, saw lots of stars and a fun memory, I played a bit on the rope/tire swing used on the Waltons. I can only dream how it would be to have your own private tour with the great Spielberg.

This is a great interview. Glad I stumbled upon it.

Very very grounded, seems like a really nice guy.

Steven do us all a favor and never die!

What a privilege making this tour with such legend! And he's so down to earth. Amazing!

8:00 do those people realize who just drove past them?

I did this tour twice the 2 times i went to Orlando and Once in LA. Those poor sods on the tour bus had no Idea one of the greatest directors of our time just drove by!! ;)

Just to be able to even meet Steven Spielberg must be nice but a tour with him at Universal Studios! Wow! :)

Damn, you’d think that a tour of Steven Spielberg would be like special and stuff, but this man is so down to earth, he can talk AND drive a golf cart at the same time. Plus also casually go by a tram.

Don Rickles would say: oh yeah it's nice hanging out with Spielberg. It's like being alone.

Oh man, that would be so great to get a tour from him.

Been on this tour at least 20 times throughout my life never gets old. It has evolved over the last 30 or so years. There use to be an animatronic King Kong now its digital, also there was a mummy section which became something else, I think its now fast and furious. And of course the best part is seeing the back to the future building.

This was really cool! I guess some people reading this won't believe me, but I'll lob it out there anyway, in this comment: I was an "extra" on The Lost World (I was one of the dinosaur hunters including the dude with the walking stick which you see in that one silhouette scene on the cliff) and got a special project as it were - Vince Vaughn was sick the day he was to reach for the giant satellite cell phone (as the RV was going over the cliff) and that is actually my arm and yes… Mr. Spielberg directed my right arm to grab the shi* out of that strap (of that cell phone). I remember him saying "let's spritz up his arm" (to make it look like I was sweating a bit in the humidity and all) and I ended up spritzing up my own arm (!!) with a little spray bottle for Mr. Spielberg (and folks around the world, ultimately, I guess, who watched the film). That was (in essence) a kind of simple little thing that (because it was Steven Spielberg directing me and it was a very large project) was actually a highlight of my life. As a side note, I was also the arms (there I go being typecast again :-) of the late, great Mr. Pete Postlethwaite. It was the scene where he scrambles to open the case containing the elephant gun to shoot a dinosaur. Spielberg directed me to do it over and over again (and I kept getting it right) until I made a mistake and fumbled while trying to open the case and then with THAT take he basically said, "PERFECT, CUT!" - It was an interesting lesson in how he wanted the natural, less perfect take - great lesson indeed.

The Spielberg drive by reminds me of one time I was in Vegas and while walking around the Bellagio shops, he was walking in the opposite direction straight towards me and I was so surprised I kind of pointed and said "Steven Spielberg." He smiled at me and kept on walking with his wife. It was such a trip because no one seemed to recognize him but me.
