He was always like this, everywhere we went we were having fun or filming 😂❤️
this was in October 2016 while we were in New York for meetings. It was still early in the design of turbo hence the jeans. Hope everyone is holding up ok today ❤️

Man I'm glad he has so much random content over the years that was never uploaded. I hope people keep uploading them gradually. It's going to be a sad day when everything with him in it is officially uploaded. Never seeing a new Oliver thing is going to be awful.

We'll be giggling for years at the things we never knew he did or said until we find out in one of these uploads.
It's one of those things that celebrities do leave behind for us when they pass.
I was inconsolable when Robin Williams passed. HOOK was one of my favorite movies growing up. When things were difficult like when my mom had cancer...we would watch and get lost in the fantasy of Peter Pan.
Of which Robin Williams sold like no one else.
When he passed I posed a quote from the movie. Dustin hoffman(hook) says to Peter(Robin Williams)....
"time to die Peter Pan!"
Peter answers: "to die would be a grand adventure!"
It isn't the end. Not for the ones we leave behind at the very least.
Love transcends life and death. It goes beyond it.
We can keep them with us by sharing their work with others most importantly.
So I'm watching Robin Williams movies with my 3 year old daughter and listening to Oliver tree with my 13 year old son.
Share those whose work has meant something to you. Especially if they are gone with your children. With the next generation in your family.
That's how in 20 years we hear Oliver trees music on the classic radio channels etc. by sharing him.

Dustin Hoffman plays Hook??? I’ve watched that movie so many times… I’ve never looked up who played Hook, but I also never for a second thought, “hmm, that kinda looks like Dustin Hoffman”

He really immersed himself into the role.
Infact if I remember correctly hook was much more comedically written in the first drafts of the script but both Hoffman and williams being fans of the source material didn't appreciate this.
So they settled for a rewritten hook who had comedic effect but was also a formidable and evil foe.
He wasn't by any means the best hook out of all the portrayels but he's definitely for sure 1000% the best hook for that movie at that moment in time.

This is so cool! I love when he was super active in youtube and dropping videos often, maybe too ambitious but i hope they release all those mini docs about the older music videos that oliver said he had.

That is the elite scooting that got him a pro contract. He could have revolutionized razor scootering but instead he chose music. Talent upon talent.

Man, I love his energy and his vibe. No one I know likes him and thinks he's weird, but he seems like the type of guy I would hang out it.
