    The Grill on the Alley from “The Holiday”

    ‘ This past weekend, while wandering through my local Target with the Grim Cheaper, I happened to spot a DVD of fave movie The Holiday on sale for $3.99!  When I saw that the special features included a commentary with director Nancy Meyers and a making-of featurette, I just about flipped my lid and immediately…

    Merry Christmas!

    ‘ I would like to wish all of my fellow stalkers a very merry Christmas!  I hope you are all having a fabulous holiday surrounded by the ones that you hold dearest.  I will be spending the next six days visiting my Grandma in Reno, so I will be taking the week off from blogging. …

    Sherman Oaks, 90210

    ‘ My buddy Mike over at MovieShotsLA just told me the address of Kelly Taylor’”‘”‘s house from my fave show of all time Beverly Hills, 90210, so today (my first day off since quitting my job) I ran right out to stalk it! I was absolutely floored to see Kelly’”‘”‘s house in person, as I…

  • The “Never Been Kissed” Prom

    The “Never Been Kissed” Prom

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, thanks to fellow stalker Chas, I was able to stalk the location of South Glen South High School’”‘”‘s prom from the 1999 movie Never Been Kissed.   Chas and I both knew that the prom interiors had been filmed at the Ebell of Los Angeles – a women’”‘”‘s educational and philanthropic club which has a long and storied film history…

  • The Pasadena Main Branch of Bank of the West from “Falcon Crest”

    The Pasadena Main Branch of Bank of the West from “Falcon Crest”

    ‘ For years now, I have been trying to track down the bank where Terry Dolittle (Whoopi Goldberg) worked in the 1986 comedy Jumpin’ Jack Flash.  It is one of those locations that always sits fixed at the back of my mind, images of it constantly floating around in my head.  So when I came…

    Voletta Wallace’s House from “Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac & the Notorious B.I.G.”

    ‘ I have never been a fan of rap.  My musical tastes tend to run far more tepid (read: Michael Bublé, Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, and ‘80s pop).  The Grim Cheaper likes to joke that my iPod song list hasn’t been updated since I first got the device back in 2001.  Regardless, when I heard…

    Michael Buble’s British Columbia Entertainment Hall of Fame Plaque on the Vancouver Starwalk

    ‘ One of the other items on my must-stalk-while-in-Canada list was Michael Buble’s British Columbia Entertainment Hall of Fame plaque which is located on Canada’s version of the Hollywood Walk of Fame – the Granville Street Starwalk in Downtown Vancouver.  I guess you could say that my trip up to the Pacific Northwest was a…

  • Phil’s Bar from “Little Black Book”

    Phil’s Bar from “Little Black Book”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, I got on a kick of tracking down locations from fave movie Little Black Book.  Now I should mention here, before I go any further, that the 2004 romantic comedy really isn’t all that good.  I can’t explain why I love it as much as I do, but I…

  • Marilyn’s House from “Four Christmases”

    Marilyn’s House from “Four Christmases”

    ‘ Early yesterday morning, after what had amounted to years and years of searching and thanks to the assistance of both Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and my good friend Nat, I finally, finally, FINALLY managed to track down the San Francisco-area house where Brad (Vince Vaughn) and Kate (Reese Witherspoon) lived in the 2008 holiday flick…

    The Lobster Shack from “Easy A”

    ‘ Another location from fave movie Easy A that fellow stalker Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, informed me of while the Grim Cheaper and I were out and about doing some stalking in the Ojai area almost two years ago was the Carrows Restaurant that masqueraded as the Lobster Shack where Woodchuck…
