Re: Location, Location, Location
Posted: Wed Jan 18, 2017 7:26 pmYou could say that. 70's, certainly. Perhaps "spy" is a better word than "intrigue" though.

It wasn't until I looked at it from another angle I saw the garage entrance next to it. It is the voodoo emporium in Live and let Die.

Seeing as Isaac Hayes sang the theme, I always wondered if 'Chef' on Southpark was a reference to Shaft. It does sound like the backup singers are saying 'Chef'.

Re: Location, Location, Location
Posted: Fri Jan 20, 2017 12:07 pmMy opening guess is: Across 110th Street. My first thought was Foxy Brown but I think that is in LA, and while pondering Blaxploitation films the song "Across 110th Street" got stuck in my head. I have no idea if it is correct but it's all I've got for the moment.

Correct, you're up.
If you had that stuck in your head, I'd wager you may have recently seen the Tarantino film that uses Bobby Womack's theme from Across 110th Street for the opening credits.

Yes, a song with a clear New York reference, in a film set entirely in Los Angeles.

Re: Location, Location, Location
Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2017 10:27 amI'm out of Blaxploitation ideas, so I'll go with what is arguably an updated version.
Which film's protagonist lived here?

Re: Location, Location, Location
Posted: Thu Jan 26, 2017 9:02 amNot as far as I can see. 1991 film, which makes me feel old.

Re: Location, Location, Location
Posted: Fri Jan 27, 2017 7:16 pmWell, that ain't Compton, and I doubt any of the protagonists lived there, but is it from 'Straight outta'?
