The “Four Christmases” Bar
‘ Last December, while doing research on the Venice residence that was used as the interior of the house belonging to Kate (Reese Witherspoon) and Brad (Vince Vaughn) in Four Christmases (which I blogged about here), I came across this Venice Paper article that stated that the 2008 comedy had also done some filming at…

The Old Towne Orange Starbucks from “That Thing You Do!”
‘ “We met at Starbucks. Not at the same Starbucks, but we saw each other at different Starbucks across the street from each other.” So says Meg Swan (Parker Posey) about meeting her husband, Hamilton (Michael Hitchcock), in the 2000 comedy Best in Show. (You can watch the hilarious scene here.) Meg might well have…

Sidney’s House from “Scream 3”
‘ One location that I was absolutely desperate to find in time for this year’s Haunted Hollywood posts was the isolated house where Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) lived in Scream 3. I knew from the flick’s Wikipedia page that the residence was located somewhere in the Topanga area, but other than that, I had very…

"I’d Like to Thank the Academy . . ."
‘ This weekend, while hanging out at the Hollywood & Highland Center on Hollywood Blvd., my boyfriend and I stumbled upon the new “Meet the Oscars” exhibit. In honor of the upcoming Academy Awards ceremony, Hollywood & Highland Center – which is home to the Kodak Theatre, official host of the Oscars – has opened…

The Casa Walsh Garage – A Distant Memory
‘ Like Mike, from MovieShotsLA said yesterday, it’s officially the end of an era. While the two of us were out doing some Pasadena area stalking on Sunday, we made our regular pilgrimage to the Walsh House from Beverly Hills, 90210 and saw a very sad sight, indeed. In fact, Mike was so out of…

Celebrity Fit Club!
‘ If you happen to be a member of a Hollywood area gym, be sure to keep your eyes open for famous people – the person on the treadmill next to you just might be Britney Spears! Or her judge! The buzz around my gym lately is that the judge in the Britney Spears custody…

California Market Center from “Cruel Intentions”
‘ For such a quintessentially “New York” movie, quite a lot of Cruel Intentions was shot in L.A., which I’m only just now discovering. A few of the more prominent West Coast locales include the modern pad where Blaine Tuttle (Joshua Jackson) lived (it’s actually the Benton House in Brentwood), the Rosemont Estate’s ornate indoor…

We’re Moving!
‘ As I mentioned in Monday’s post, the Grim Cheaper and I are moving this week. (Hopefully we won’t have any moments like this!) So blog posts will likely be few and far between over the next couple of weeks until we get settled. Hopefully I’ll be back up and running sooner rather than later,…

Halloween
‘ Hi, my name is Lindsay Blake and I have never seen the movie . I know, I know – it’”‘”‘s like sacrilege or something, especially since Halloween is my favorite holiday. I’”‘”‘ve also never seen any of the movies. But I’”‘”‘ve always been kind of a scaredy cat, so as a teenager I was…

The Frederick Mitchell Mooers House from “Mod Squad”
‘ As I’ve said before, stalking begets stalking. Back in January, I wrote a post about a spectacular abandoned residence that had been featured in recent episodes of both Major Crimes and Parks and Recreation. A longtime reader (a veeeery longtime reader, pretty sure he’s been with me since the beginning!) named John was intrigued…
