The Dorchester from “Mannequin”
‘ I’ve made no secret of my love for Mannequin over the past few months. As I’ve mentioned, my sole reason for heading to Philadelphia this past September was to stalk locales from the 1987 comedy, one of which was The Dorchester, the building where Jonathan Switcher’s (Andrew McCarthy) girlfriend Roxie (Carole Davis) lived. (You…

Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Holistic Resort & Spa
‘ During our recent Cabo San Lucas honeymoon, the Grim Cheaper and I stayed at the Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Holistic Resort & Spa. And while I knew from looking at the property’s website that it was a beautiful place, at the time I made our reservation I had absolutely NO idea that it was also…

Nakatomi Plaza from “Die Hard”
‘ Because we are currently knee deep in the middle of the Christmas Season – which just so happens to be my favorite season 🙂 – I decided to focus my next few blog posts on locations featured in holiday movies. And what better way to start off those Christmas posts than to blog about…

We’ll Always Have Paris
‘ Once again I am indebted to Mike over at MovieShotsLA for finding yet another location that had eluded me – a location I had been searching for for close to 16 years! During Season 3 of the original 90210, Brenda and Donna spend their summer in Paris. In the episode entitled “Shooting Star/An American…

Madeline’s Real Estate Office from “Big Little Lies”
‘ I try to keep things positive on this blog, but, man, Sunday night’s Big Little Lies finale was an epic disappointment! The entire season was hugely lackluster, truth be told, which is especially frustrating considering the outright perfection of Season 1. I will contend that the first few episodes started out semi-promising, but the…

Grand Central Air Terminal from “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure”
‘ While doing research for yesterday’s post (which you can read here), I came across a page on IMDB that stated that the bus station scene from Pee-wee’s Big Adventure was filmed at the Glendale Amtrak Station. I knew from previous cyber-stalking, though, that the Pee-wee bus station scene was actually filmed a few miles…

The “Hangover” House
‘ A few weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, called me up to let me know that he was on the hunt for the main house used in fave movie The Hangover. The two of us both had a pretty good inkling that the residence was located somewhere in the Pasadena area, we just weren’t sure…

One More Day Off
‘ At the last minute the Grim Cheaper and I decided to extend our anniversary mini-vacation by one more night, so I will unfortunately be taking another day off from blogging. But I will be back tomorrow with a whole new post – I promise! 🙂 Until next time, Happy Stalking! 🙂 ‘

Bugsy Siegel’s Former Resort – Club Arrowhead of the Pines
‘ Another place that I stalked while visiting Lake Arrowhead this past Thanksgiving was the Bracken Fern Manor country inn, which in the 1930’s was part of a private gambling club/resort named Club Arrowhead of the Pines that was run by none other than legendary mobster Bugsy Siegel. Because the Grim Cheaper is obsessed with…

Spencer and Heidi’s Wedding!
‘ My favorite reality TV duo, better known as Heidi and Spencer, have caused a media shitstorm yet again by announcing that they will be tying the knot – for real this time – in two short weeks right in my hometown of Pasadena. 🙂 Early in the week, I actually got a tip that Speidi would…
