  • Dean’s House from “License to Drive”

    Dean’s House from “License to Drive”

    ‘ For no particular reason and seemingly out of the blue, I got on a License to Drive kick a couple of weeks ago and was absolutely floored to come across a page on fellow stalker Geoff’s 90210Locations website that detailed almost all of the locales featured in the movie.  The only spot missing was…

  • Joyce’s House from “Little Black Book”

    Joyce’s House from “Little Black Book”

    ‘ Last week, while doing research on locations from fave movie Little Black Book, I decided to watch the “Live & On-Air: The Making of Little Black Book” DVD special feature in which the filming of a deleted scene happened to be shown taking place in front of a house that I immediately recognized.  I…

  • Liberace’s Valley House from “Behind the Candelabra”

    Liberace’s Valley House from “Behind the Candelabra”

    ‘ As I mentioned last month in my post about Sherman Way Adult Books from Behind the Candelabra (which you can read here), back in May fellow stalker E.J., of the Movieland Directory website, challenged me to find several locales from the HBO biopic including the L.A.-area home belonging to Liberace (Michael Douglas).  It was…

  • Derek’s Apartment from “Little Black Book”

    Derek’s Apartment from “Little Black Book”

    ‘ The Little Black Book location that I was most interested in tracking down was the supposed New Jersey-area apartment building where Derek (Ron Livingston) lived and where his girlfriend, Stacy (Brittany Murphy), spent most of her time.  I fell in love with the adorably charming building upon sight when first watching Little Black Book…

  • Mission Street from “Little Black Book”

    Mission Street from “Little Black Book”

    ‘ Back in November 2010, a fellow stalker named Clayton wrote a comment on my post about Fair Oaks Pharmacy from Mr. Deeds (which you can read here) alerting me that fave movie Little Black Book and the 1985 classic Back to the Future had also done some filming at the 50s-style soda fountain.  And…

  • Phil’s Bar from “Little Black Book”

    Phil’s Bar from “Little Black Book”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, I got on a kick of tracking down locations from fave movie Little Black Book.  Now I should mention here, before I go any further, that the 2004 romantic comedy really isn’t all that good.  I can’t explain why I love it as much as I do, but I…

  • The Hyatt Regency Valencia from “Little Miss Sunshine”

    The Hyatt Regency Valencia from “Little Miss Sunshine”

    ‘ A couple of months ago, the Grim Cheaper and I sat down to re-watch fave 2006 dramedy Little Miss Sunshine and I just about fell out of my chair when I spotted the Hyatt Regency Valencia pop up in a brief scene.  I had actually stalked and blogged about the Santa Clarita-area hotel way back…

  • Echo Park

    Echo Park

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk ever since June 2012, when I wrote my post about MacArthur Park from New Girl (which you can read here), was the similar-looking Echo Park in L.A.’s Echo Park neighborhood.  Sadly though, my efforts were thwarted for over a year due to an extensive restoration project…

  • Sherman Way Adult Books from “Behind the Candelabra”

    Sherman Way Adult Books from “Behind the Candelabra”

    ‘ Today’s location is a bit of a risqué one, so brace yourselves, my fellow stalkers!  Back in May, after Behind the Candelabra first premiered, I received an email from my buddy E.J., of The Movieland Directory website, listing a few of the locales that he had tracked down from the HBO biopic.  He ended…

  • The Derby Restaurant from “Step Brothers”

    The Derby Restaurant from “Step Brothers”

    ‘ During a recent visit to Los Angeles, the Grim Cheaper and I stayed at an Arcadia hotel that just so happened to be located right across the street from a nine-decades old eatery that I had always wanted to stalk – The Derby Restaurant, which was featured in the 2008 comedy Step Brothers.  As…
