  • The “Father of the Bride” Grocery Store

    The “Father of the Bride” Grocery Store

    ‘ Due to my parents’ recent move and my dad’s recent hospital stay, I have sadly not had time to do much stalking as of late.  While in Palm Springs this past weekend my mom happened to ask me if I had some locations stockpiled (or should I say “stalkpiled”? ) for times such as…

  • The LAPD/FBI Headquarters from “The Fast and the Furious”

    The LAPD/FBI Headquarters from “The Fast and the Furious”

    ‘ One location that I am asked about constantly is the mid-century modern-style, circular-shaped home that served as the LAPD/FBI undercover headquarters in the 2001 flick The Fast and the Furious.  And while fellow stalker Gary, of the Seeing Stars website, had briefly written about the Beverly Hills property a couple of years ago after…

  • Mike’s House from “Say Anything . . . “

    Mike’s House from “Say Anything . . . “

    ‘ As I mentioned in last Thursday’s post about North Hollywood Park – aka the location of the iconic Boombox scene from Say Anything . . .  – Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I recently went on a mission to track down some missing locales from the classic 1989 flick.  And I am very happy to…

  • Eric Hamber Secondary School from “Juno”

    Eric Hamber Secondary School from “Juno”

    ‘ The third and final Juno filming location that I stalked while in Vancouver last month was the supposed Minneapolis-area Dancing Elk High School – the learning institution attended by Juno MacGuff (aka Ellen Page), her dorky baby-daddy Paulie Bleeker (aka Michael Cera), and her absolutely hilarious best friend, Leah (aka Olivia Thirlby).  In real…

  • Anavrin from “You”

    Anavrin from “You”

    ‘ I loved Season 1 of You, but Season 2 was even more gripping, engrossing and enjoyable!  I think a large part of that had to do with Anavrin (pronounced “uh-nah-vrin”), the impossibly idyllic grocery store where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) landed a job in episode 1, “A Fresh Start,” and worked throughout.  The charming…

  • Paramount Studios as a Wedding Venue

    Paramount Studios as a Wedding Venue

    ‘ Well, I guess it is finally about time that I start blogging about my wedding, but I can’t very well do that without first writing about the place where I got almost all of my wedding planning inspiration – the Studios at Paramount Pictures in Hollywood.  When Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I embarked on…

  • The House from Ben Affleck’s “Men’s Journal” Photo Shoot

    The House from Ben Affleck’s “Men’s Journal” Photo Shoot

    ‘ If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a hundred times – I hate incorrect filming location information!  I recently encountered some erroneous reporting which led me to stalk a site that, come to find out, does not actually have any movie or television connections (at least, none that I could dig up).  Hmph! …

  • The High Line from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”

    The High Line from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”

    ‘ I absolutely love the great outdoors.  In fact, alongside Starbucks and stalking, there’s pretty much nothing I enjoy more than being outside.  So when I read about a former-elevated-train-track-turned-urban-park in NYC prior to my trip to the Big Apple last April, I knew it was a spot I had to check out.  At the…

  • Doc Brown’s House

    Doc Brown’s House

    ‘ Back to the Future has always been one of my very favorite movies, so when I found out that the interiors of Doc Brown’”‘”‘s house were filmed at a home in Pasadena, I had to run right out to stalk it. The exteriors of Doc’”‘”‘s house were also filmed at a home in Pasadena,…

  • Frankie’s House from “Alpha Dog”

    Frankie’s House from “Alpha Dog”

    ‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for what seems like forever now is the home belonging to Frankie Ballenbacher’s (aka Justin Timberlake’s) father, Juergen Ballenbacher (aka Chris Kinkade), in the ultra-dark and depressing movie Alpha Dog.  As I have expressed a few times before on this blog, I was not…
