    The Three Clubs from “Swingers”

    ‘ Besides a great coffee shop, there’s pretty much nothing I love more than an unpretentious bar/restaurant that boasts a retro vibe (as evidenced here, here, here, here, here, and here).  Add in a filming location element and I am completely smitten!  One that had been on my To-Stalk List for what seemed like eons…

    Kabuki Japanese Restaurant from “Clueless”

    ‘ OK so I’m totally buggin’!  I just found out that Paramount Pictures is in talks to reboot Clueless!  This may be way harsh, but all I have to say regarding the news is ‘Whatever!’  The 1995 classic is absolute perfection AS IS and should NOT be touched!  Hearing about the project did remind me…

    The Tate Mansion from “Soap”

    ‘ I have a pretty amazing memory, especially when it comes to things most people find useless, such as filming locations and movie quotes.  I’m like a vault.  Or an elephant.  Once something enters my brain, it locks in and I don’t forget it.  So I was shocked when I received an email a couple…
