I am an L. A. resident and comedian for over twenty years with an unreasonable amount of movie knowledge to answer your questions, test your trivia, and keep the party lively. I'm the founder/exec. producer/writer & host of TheMovieGuys. net (est. 2009), which has been home to all manner of movie-related content - reviews, articles, podcasts, live shows, comedy events, red carpets, movie premieres, Comic-Con hosting and more with over a million views on various platforms, including Apple Podcasts and YouTube. My film reviews and articles have been syndicated all over the web on websites and newsletters, reaching hundreds of thousands of readers. Plus, I've appeared on radio stations and podcasts in D. C. , Chicago, London, Dallas, L. A. and everywhere in between talking movies and am writing my first book based on interviews with over 200 actors, filmmakers and comics from my podcasts - The Movie Showcast, The TMG Interview, Movie Nonsense and The Ford Fiesta. Half the reason your tour will be so unique is that you get to pick what you see and you get to stop and take photos. The other half is me. Los Angeles TCP #: PSG0040705

Half Day Tour to Where Legendary Movies Were Shot
Overview of your Los Angeles tour
The east side towns of L. A. - Pasadena, Alhambra and Monrovia - may not be on your list of L. A. hotspots, but Pasadena's famous for more than just the Rose Parade. Legendary movies were shot here, literally some of the biggest of all time, and I'll take you to to where they were filmed! The L. A. East Side Film Locations Tour is a unique experience catered entirely to what you want to see. Plus, I'm there to offer trivia, stories and more about the films in a one-on-one experience. We'll just hit the road, talk movies and envelope ourselves in movie culture! Plus, we'll get out of the car and take pics! That's the best way for you to remember your trip - you become a part of these films as you take each one in. I mean, they're already a part of you, right? I'll pick you up to start the tour where it's most convenient. We can decide this place upon booking, and I'll pick you up there and start showing you around town.
Your Los Angeles tour itinerary
I've listed 28 locations we could visit and you pick your top ten spots - those will be guaranteed! No reason for me to pick places from movies you don't like or have never seen, YOU pick the locations and it'll be a greatest hits of just the films you love. I mentioned that some of the biggest movies ever were shot in L. A. 's east side cities. Here are some for you to choose from: FIVE different houses from the BACK TO THE FUTURE franchise, including Doc Brown's, Biff's & George McFly's The Banks' residence from FATHER OF THE BRIDE (1991) THREE legendary spots from HALLOWEEN, including Michael Myers' house & the hedge Pee Wee Herman's house from PEE WEE'S BIG ADVENTURE Sam's high school from TRANSFORMERS Plus, HOUSE, THE FOG and THE HOLIDAY - you pick your tour! Your tour ends at the same place it started or any location on the east side by your request. It's good to pick a restaurant or bar so you can dine or have a drink there before or after your tour to continue your immersion in L. A. film history.
