Nice video...brings back many memories! 28:54 is actually eastbound on Georgia (not Burrard). On the left you can see the Christ Church cathedral and the old Georgia Medical building soon to be blown up (1989). Across the street you can just make out the facade of the Hotel Vancouver. 😊
That conductor at The Orpheum is my friend's dad (Mr. Akiyama)! And the former owners of The Ridge bowling alley are my current neighbours. They still miss this business every day!
I was just hittimg my teen years in 1980...seeing this brought back so many memories...east van is where i grew up...sadly in 1996 i left for ontario...Vancouver will always be special to me
Solid job, I only knew about 8 or 9 of those being done here. Had to laugh at the one scene at the ferry where clear as day you can see BC License plates on the cars, despite it being in the U.S.
I love Shoot to Kill. There is a climbing crag and a rock climb named for the movie in the Cheakamus Canyon in Squamish where they did some filming. Apparently there's still a concrete slab there that was poured for the production.
@@banksvault5557 The other thing I recall about that film is that the ferry they are on was later cut in half vertically and had a section welded into the middle to make it longer. THEN it was cut in half horizontally and had another deck added. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-class_ferry I live tweeted the film a few years back when that was a thing. twitter.com/i/events/984656277199470594 there's a bunch more location information there and screen shots.
@@banksvault5557 Oh no... that movie was terrible! :) And the rest of the car chase that you showed a little of was pretty entertaining for those who knew Vancouver; from Coal Harbour to Horseshoe Bay in a single cut, and back again, as I recall. ("Shooter" spliced together New West and Baltimore in a single car chase, so it could have been worse. lol). Good job on the video, though! And the soundtrack.
8:10 they are not walking out onto hastings street lol, looks more like gastown, I was at the Rocky 4, skipped many days, just for free food lol. Thought bird on a wire was an 80s movie, just hit 1990

These are giving me such joy. My heart aches for 80s/90s Vancouver 😢
Pre expo was the best time

"Don't do this" "This is illegal" had me laughing pretty good
I remember how much I love Odyssey Imports . Thats how I got my NWA and NIN shirts .
I like how some of the songs come from Vancouver
Great piece! Cant imagine the work it took to put this together.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Skinny Puppy! I wish the Ridge was still around. There’s no form of entertainment in that neighbourhood anymore
Cuts like a knife. BRYAN Adams
Fly by night. Chilliwack.
Both Vancouver bands

I miss old Vancouver

Underrated movie! That’s really cool information, didn’t know any of that! Thanks

Skinny Puppy - the town was a creative powerhouse back then. The town changed in the early 90's when the city got swamped with T-Holes.
I'm pretty sure I know at least one person who was a background performer in a scene shot on the steps of the Art Gallery.
30:00 Look who's driving. (no keys in the ignition).
And the wheel obviously locked :P

You can see the Balmoral Hotel in the background, so it is clearly Hastings street.
@@banksvault5557 8:09 Hastings never had a game store or a gallery
I'm guessing it is either the old Marble Arch or Drake Hotel, now the Hotel Canada on Richards street
@@Anthony-qg3qo Most likely, the interior shot was filmed elsewhere and the exterior is on Hastings
Never ending story
