  • The Houses from the Movie “Big”

    The Houses from the Movie “Big”

    ‘ Right around the corner from The King of Queens house, which I blogged about on Friday, are the two main houses used in the 1988 Tom Hanks movie Big.  And when I say “right around the corner”, I literally mean RIGHT around the corner.  The King of Queens  house and the Big  houses are…

  • The “Thirteen Days” House

    The “Thirteen Days” House

    ‘ While I mentioned last week that today’s blog would be most likely be about the Cabo San Lucas rocks where Jennifer Aniston posed for her recent Jennifer Aniston Perfume advertisement, I’ve actually decided to postpone that post until a later date and instead write about a location that can be found right here in…

  • Caliente Tropics Resort from “Alpha Dog”

    Caliente Tropics Resort from “Alpha Dog”

    ‘ Another location that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk while visiting the Palm Springs area two weekends ago was the Caliente Tropics Resort which appeared in the ultra-disturbing 2006 movie Alpha Dog. I found this location thanks to fave stalking book Hollywood Escapes: The Moviegoer’s Guide to Exploring Southern California’s Great Outdoors,…

  • Someone Else Had Good Luck This Weekend! 🙂

    ‘ While Oscar 2008 was almost a complete bust for me, I am happy to report that Hilarry from the blog “Think Pink” had a ton of luck stalking this weekend in LA – much better luck than I had!!! Many props to her! 🙂 You can read her Oscar post here. Thanks, Hilarry, for…

  • The “Even Stevens” House

    The “Even Stevens” House

    ‘ Though I am a tween at heart, for some reason the 1999 television series Even Stevens, which focused on the life of seventh grader Louis Stevens (Shia LaBeouf), was never on my radar.  In fact, I don’t think I had ever even heard of it until a fellow stalker named Britt posted a comment…

  • The Fine Arts Building from “The Morning Show”

    The Fine Arts Building from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ Considering I’ve been at this crazy hobby of mine for twenty years now, you’d think I’d have stalked every square inch of Los Angeles.  While watching the second episode of The Morning Show, though, I was reminded of a site I had yet to set foot in – downtown’s Fine Arts Building.  I’d heard…

  • Kyoto Gardens from “Her”

    Kyoto Gardens from “Her”

    ‘ As a kid, I was pretty much never without a book in hand.  (Truth be told, not much has changed since.)  One of my favorite childhood tomes was Frances Hodgson Burnett’s 1911 masterpiece The Secret Garden.  Reading it made me want nothing more than to unearth a lush hidden idyll of my own.  That…

  • The Blind Donkey from “Revenge”

    The Blind Donkey from “Revenge”

    ‘ I stalk so many places, typically in quick succession, that oftentimes a few get lost in the shuffle.  Such was the case with The Blind Donkey, an Old Town Pasadena whiskey bar that I visited back in April, shortly before the Grim Cheaper and I headed off to New York, and then promptly forgot…

  • Killarney Market from Michael Buble’s “Haven’t Met You Yet” Video

    Killarney Market from Michael Buble’s “Haven’t Met You Yet” Video

    ‘ Now don’t laugh, but the primary reason behind the Grim Cheaper’s and my trip up to the Pacific Northwest this past weekend was so that I could stalk the spot where Michael Buble filmed the music video for his hit song “Haven’t Met You Yet” – Killarney Market in Vancouver, British Columbia.  Sure, we…

  • Sorry For the Delay . . .

    Sorry For the Delay . . .

    ‘ Sorry to have been M.I.A. for the past week.  We had friends in town visiting and I was a little remiss in my blogging duties.  I did do a ton of stalking while they were here, though (we even ran into Ken Todd while stalking TomTom, as you can see above!), so a bunch…
