Somewhere in the NA. Well, I assume. Because of the direction the cars are parked.

So Tats, tell us why you want to know where that place is.
Title: Re: where is this place?
Post by: Tatsujin on September 13, 2009, 03:21:24 PM
I know where that place is :) I want to know it from you. it's a game. I think 80% of all people here have seen that place before, just from a different angle. it's not a historical place or such, still a famous place I guess. it even has a special mention on google map, due to its awareness.

OJ's house?
Title: Re: where is this place?
Post by: ParanoiaDragon on September 13, 2009, 03:32:43 PM
Playboy Mansion?  Wonderland?
Title: Re: where is this place?
Post by: Joe Redifer on September 13, 2009, 03:42:38 PM
That actually does kind of look like the OJ house, the one where the murders happened.

But then again it's not.

More of a hint, please.

Is it a recording studio in LA?
Title: Re: where is this place?
Post by: Tatsujin on September 13, 2009, 04:57:23 PM
nope, but it had something to do with filming, yes.
Title: Re: where is this place?
Post by: Joe Redifer on September 13, 2009, 06:09:48 PM
Well that's not much to go on.  Unless you can give a better hint, I'm not going to bother guessing.

I'd rank Poltergeist slightly above My Stepmother is an Alien, but that has more to do with my disdain for all things Craig T. Nelson.

*edit*

4267 Roxbury Street (tee-hee, 'Night at the Roxbury', giggle),  Simi Valley, Cali.

Darn, I was thinking Poltergeist earlier but discounted it as I just didn't remember any similarity. Guess I should go watch it again.

IIRC it was backwoods Tennessee, and burned down somewhat recently.
Title: Re: where is this place?
Post by: Necromancer on September 14, 2009, 06:33:33 AM
Yeah, if by 'recent' you mean twenty+ years ago.  :P

It apparently burned down shortly after the first flick was filmed.  Though maybe it was after the second; it's been a while since I read If Chins Could Kill, so my memory's a bit fuzzy.

Anywho - it's your turn now, nectarsis.

IIRC it was claimed that it burned down "mysteriously" after the first movie.  I have also found claims that it was visited by gawkers, and was considered a nuisance so YEARS latter it happened to have an "accident".  No clue which is true anymore.

Does that house have a precariously cantilevered Ferrari garage, perchance?

Not that it matters, but I recall Bruce "the man" Campbell writing that it had burned down after the first (or possibly second) movie; consequently, they had to recycle footage from the first film that they had planned on re-shooting when they made the sequel.  Who knows the real story, but I like to think that the forest decided to force the cabin to JOIN US.  :twisted:

Is that actually in the Chicago area?  It's a pretty cool looking house and garage, though that storm door looks less high end and more $50 special at Menards.  :|

Someone else can have my turn if they have a good one in mind.

lol..don't get it :lol:

 but if you can name the loc and the house name, i would accept it.
Title: Re: where is this place?
Post by: Necromancer on September 15, 2009, 03:38:10 AM
I don't think my guess is correct, but Reeses Pieces are synonymous with E.T.

*edit*

Is that one of the Greene brothers masterpieces - the Gamble House in Pasadena?  I don't recall it appearing in any movies.  :-k
