National Lampoon’s Vacation “Sorry folks, the park’s closed. The moose out front should have told you.” As Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase) and family attempt to enter the closed down Walley World, Lasky the security guard (John Candy) comes out to stop them. This location is just inside the turnstiles when you enter just past the Funnel Cake Factory. In the background, that building is the main souvenir store, the Six Flags Emporium. Now this shot was a little harder to match exactly because of the expansion done to the building John Candy walks around. The remodel brought that corner out about 6’. Everything else is still pretty much the same. 🙂 Six Flags Magic Mountain 26101 Magic Mountain Pkwy, Valencia, CA

The ruins of Connor MacLeod’s castle (Christopher Lambert), where he lived with Heather (Beatie Edney) after being exiled from his native village. The castle was destroyed during the fight between The Kurgan (Clancy Brown) and Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez (Sean Connery) – all in Russell Mulcahy’s “Highlander” (1986). In search of these locations, I visited with my family the area around The Meeting of Three Waters in the Scottish Highlands, near Glencoe in 2018. Unfortunately, the castle was built as a set piece solely for the purposes of that movie.
