The Tire House from “Pee-wee’s Big Holiday”
‘ Today’s locale is becoming quite the prolific film star! I’ve blogged about the residence at 800 Adelaine Avenue in South Pasadena previously – twice, in fact. It first came on my radar thanks to its appearance in the 2008 comedy Bedtime Stories, as I chronicled here. Then, in 2015, I noticed it pop up…

Liberace’s Former House
‘ This weekend, while visiting the desert, and thanks to my friend EJ at the Movieland Directory, I got to stalk Liberace‘”‘”‘s former Palm Springs manse. His home is an absolutely beautiful Mediterranean estate and there is no doubt whatsoever that it once belonged to Liberace. Besides the large candelabra located in front of the…

A New York State of Mind . . .
‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are heading to New York for the week and I could NOT be more excited! Manhattan is pretty much my favorite place in the world and not only has it been almost seven years since our last visit, but we are also meeting up with some of our closest…

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…

The Sadr City Date Factory from “American Sniper”
‘ As I sat down to figure out what to write about for today’s post, I started getting worried that my location backlog was running low. That worry was quickly amended as soon as I began perusing my inventory of stalking photographs and saw that was not the case at all. I have so many…

Farralone – Frank Sinatra’s Former House
‘ While doing research on the Chaplin Court apartment complex, which I blogged about last Thursday, I came across some information about an oft-filmed-at Chatsworth-area estate formerly owned by Old Blue Eyes himself, Frank Sinatra, that, for some inexplicable reason, I had somehow not previously known about. The mansion, which in most circles is known…

The Great Quake of ’08!
‘ Yesterday morning at around 11:42am a fairly large earthquake hit the LA area. I received a text message from a friend, who forgot that I am currently on vacation in Hawaii, asking if I felt the quake. My first thought was ” OMG! My Marilyn Merlot bottle!” LOL The bottle of Marilyn wine that…

The Burger That Ate L.A. from “Melrose Place”
‘ Way back in July 2009, a fellow stalker named Zoe emailed me to ask for some help in tracking down a hamburger-shaped restaurant that had appeared regularly in establishing shots on the original Melrose Place. Because I had never really watched the series, though, and had never noticed a burger-shaped eatery in all my…

Anaconda!
‘ No, the above title does not refer to the 1997 JLo/Ice Cube action flick (a movie I have never seen), but a episode of the same name. The other day while I was hanging out on the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, Mike (from ) called me and asked if I wouldn’”‘”‘t mind…

Julia Harris’ House from “Horrible Bosses”
‘ Another location that the Grim Cheaper and I ventured out in the pouring rain to stalk two weekends ago was the ultra-modern abode where Dr. Julia Harris, D.D.S. (aka my girl Jen Aniston) lived in the (horrible) 2011 comedy Horrible Bosses. I was informed of this location via a text from fellow stalker Chas,…
