The Belasco Theatre
‘ During my three day stint as an extra in the Britney Spears movie Crossroads, I happened to make friends with a few of the crew members. The entire cast and crew of the movie was EXTREMELY nice and, as tends to happen on long shoots, I got to know the people I was working…

The Possible Interior of O’Hara’s Pub from “Bad Santa”
‘ As I mentioned in last Tuesday’s post, thanks to fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, I am fairly certain that I have managed to find the bar that was used as the interior of O’Hara’s Pub in the 2003 comedy Bad Santa. When Owen heard about my quest to track…

Jackie Robinson Stadium from “Never Been Kissed”
‘ One location that I attempted to stalk far more times than I actually care to admit is the supposed Chicago, Illinois-area Municipal Stadium where Sam Coulson (aka Michael Vartan) kissed Josie Geller (aka Drew Barrymore) for the very first time during the final scene of fave movie Never Been Kissed. Fellow stalker Owen had…

Pamela’s House from “Teen Wolf”

Westside Pavilion from “Christmas with the Kranks”
‘ Some cities know how to do Christmas right. Sadly, Palm Springs is not one of them. As I mentioned last year, the desert just seems to be lacking when it comes to Christmas décor. Yes, there are lights and garland strung in certain sections of our local mall and colorful wreaths hung from a…

Dionne’s House From “Clueless”
‘ One location that I have been searching for for what seems like forever is the huge castle-like abode where Cher’s (aka Alicia Silverstone’s) best friend Dionne (aka Stacey Dash) lived in one of my all time favorite comedies, 1995’s Clueless. Since I had been trying to track down the home for years and had…

The Skyline Residence – Jacob’s House from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”
‘ Back in August, I received an email from a fellow stalker named Brandon who wanted to let me know that he had tracked down the ultra-modern abode where Jacob Palmer (aka Ryan Gosling) lived in Crazy, Stupid, Love. At the time I had yet to see the movie, but added the address to my…

Pete’s House from “Bridesmaids”
‘ Speaking of Cameron Woods (in case you missed Monday’s post, you can read it here) . . . while wandering around the neighborhood recently I was reminded of a spot that I stalked long ago but had yet to blog about – the house belonging to Pete (Brian Petsos) in the 2011 comedy Bridesmaids. …

Caliente Tropics Resort from “Alpha Dog”
‘ Another location that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk while visiting the Palm Springs area two weekends ago was the Caliente Tropics Resort which appeared in the ultra-disturbing 2006 movie Alpha Dog. I found this location thanks to fave stalking book Hollywood Escapes: The Moviegoer’s Guide to Exploring Southern California’s Great Outdoors,…

The “WarGames” 7-Eleven
‘ I am not a spontaneous person by nature. I much prefer planning things out, especially when it comes to vacations. Typically when going on a trip, I investigate any and all filming that has been done in the area we are heading to. As I mentioned in Monday’s post, though, our Big Bear Lake…
