May my God bless u, nobody asked me but please hear me, Thanks to all who made this movie, I have watched this movie a million times, it reminds of how I was a unhappy child but would watch TV and Dennis the Menace made me get out of my unhappy self and gave me a real hope of making it through the day, Thanks and made my God bless u all, Thank u very much, Ron
It's a classic! RIP Walter Matthau. Its not my favorite movie with him starring but it is one of them. I'd say my number one favorite with Matthau is The Odd Couple as Oscar.
I still giggle as a full grown adult when I think about the scene with the beans especially when Denis is over stuffing the beans and the bulging belly 😂😂😂
This is the only Dennis the Menace movie ever made. I pretend the sequel never happened. None of the original cast returns and Justin Cooper sucked in the replacement for Mason Gamble as Dennis. He also plays Jim Carreys son in Liar Liar and his acting is downright awful in both movies.
What makes u say that? In some way he was right but a man doesn't necessarily have to drive the woman to the hospital. It could be her mother or one of her family members male or female.
It is a very pleasant film thanks to its photography and locations. I remember in 1994 when I was a kid on my birthday we watched this movie and my best childhood friend and I laughed a lot. My friend died 6 months ago, RIP. Thank you for this video.
Thanks so much for doing this tour for all of us that love the "Dennis The Menace" movie. Hey, I'm 69, and I have probably watched this movie at least 20 times. I put it on because it has the "Home Alone" vibe because I love John Hughes movies. His movies always bring something special out about us regular people. I think that's why his movies have done so amazingly well. Block busters! Thanks again! Really enjoyed it.
@@ms.camillewarrenempress31Kevins older brother Buzz from Home Alone plays the babysitter for Dennis which took me quite some time to notice. It's funny when hes reading him a trains book mispronouncing the words.
Thank you to show us this beautiful locations! And I want to let you know that I appreciate your efforts to show all of us who have grown up with Dennis the Menace. I love this movie! The casting is awesome! I like everything in this film: the acting, the script, the direction, the music, the beautiful houses, the forest.....Unfortunately, such films are not made anymore.
Great video! I've always been a fan of this movie. This Dennis the Menace will always be the best. I also did like Dennis the Menace ( Dinosaur Hunter) from 1987, starring Victor DiMattia aka Timmy Timmons from The Sandlot. Although not many people ever knew about that Dennis the Menace film. At least no one I've ever mentioned it to; that is..
The one thing I’ve noticed in all these Dennis movies is the actors that plays George Wilson have all passed away. I never watched that one it has the sandlot kid in it so now I’m very interested.
I love this movie! I’m a 1980’s baby and this movie brings back so many memories of my childhood. Our 12 year old daughter and I are watching this movie right now 9/21/24 at 6:58pm. The scene where all the kids are playing hide in seek is when I told our daughter this was my childhood playing outside with all the neighborhood kids and my poor kid said that is so cool. Unfortunately we don’t live in a neighborhood like the one I grow up in, so I have to set up gatherings with her friends.
Shooting this with your obviously uninterested family made this a better watch for some reason. It's like you're showing us the locations and at the same time living your childhood dreams while your kids don't gaf. Something about the layers make it a better watch that if you were solo lol
Joan Plowright is still alive wich I find amazing. I was born 84. I loved this movie when I was a kid. Finding out that lovely old lady is still alive gives me some comfort reaching 40😔
I'm realizing now that I was 11 years old when this came out! I loved it, and rented it many times! I dig this locations video and now on to see what else you have 😉
There’s only one reaction to it on UA-cam. I love first time movie reactions. It’s a great way to watch your favorite movies with someone who has never seen it. Plus all the good parts are in it, usually 30 minutes or so. Please request Dennis the Menace from all the movie reactors!🎉🎉🎉😂
I went to school with Amy Sakasitz who played Margaret and I met Lea Thompson and Christopher Lloyd at a convention where a Back To The Future reunion was being held.
I really want to do more conventions one day. The only celebrity I went to school with was Clay Guida the ufc fighter. Meet and greets get so pricey but it’s definitely worth it.
Nicely put video! It's funny our perception as a kid I thought the Wilson's and the Mitchell's houses were more towards the middle of the neighborhood house lineup but when I went to visit 2 years ago I noticed they were the first two houses when turning on Ashland. Also seeing that bridge up close the concrete grounds and the surrounding area looks smaller. I was going to go to that bridge when I came to visit but didn't have a clue how to find it.
I used the website www.itsfilmedthere.com/2010/03/dennis-menace.html?m=1 to get the approximate location. Near Irving Park Road And Rohrssen Road Intersection, Elgin. Then I used google maps to get the bridge and figure out where to park and how I was going to get to it. I didn’t plan to cut through yards but It was so over grown and I brought the family. So I parked at the disc golf ⛳️ place and walked along popular creek until we got there.
@@Neverhome365 Yeah I found the disc golf place on google maps, I wonder if it's near where Dennis first ran into Switchblade Sam through the scary woods? You should do the Home Alone 1 locations all but one location are within walking distance from each other.
i think i might of seen it at the cinema as a kid, although it may have been vhs at home, hard to recall but i loved the cartoon and mr Wilson's voice! sounded like an older peter griffin.
I barely remember saying that part . I watched it but didn’t pick up on that part. Glad it had a deeper meaning than just being a evil person. Thanks for watching
The railroad line was operated by the EJ&E (Elgin, Joliet, & Eastern) railroad. In 2012, the EJ&E was merged into the Wisconsin Central (a subsidiary of Canadian National).
@@chooch1995 (42.0327455, -88.2258418) I parked at the Rolling Knolls Disc Golf Course and walked along poplar Creek too the bridge. I tried to stay as close as I could to the creek and moved at a good pace. Because it’s along peoples back yards. It’s very overgrown on the other side that how I initially planned to get to it.
It got blocked for copyright so I pulled out much of the videos. Next time I’ll will look into doing screen shots as a backup for lineup shots. It was such a bummer to lose clips after editing it all together. Because it’s always nice to have clips to remember what scene you’re looking at.
I had to cut a lot of switch blade sams clips and I think I had to take out the kid’s talking at the tree house. After the second time getting blocked I might of removed some scenes that could of stayed. It Was such a disappointment to have to take a knife to something you had I had completed.
Fun facts are that Daniel Stern turned down the offer to play the main villian of the film considering his slapstick performance as Marv in the first two Home Alone films. Before Dennis the Menace even came out Christopher Lloyd was offered to star in the 1990 film Problem Child as the Bow tie Killer but turned it down and saved playing a villian for this movie instead.
My favorite fun fact was that Daniel James Roebuck was going to be marv because Daniel asked for more money in home alone. I mean I loved the movie dudes but still can’t see anyone but Daniel stern in that duo. Gotta love all the mischief kid movies of the 90s
The late John Ritter RIP wasn't even the first choice to play the overly nice adoptive father Ben Healy for Problem Child. Rick Moranis,Steve Martin,and Chevy Chase were all in consideration to take on the role. They all would've nailed it.
Hopefully I'm not alone when it comes to this but it took me quite some time before I noticed that was Devin Ratray aka kevins older brother Buzz from Home Alone playing the babystitter for Dennis. Its funny when hes reading him a book mispronouncing the words.
Well it is my most viewed video on my channel. So a couple more than 17 people watched it lol. I also did Dutch filming locations which is probably even lesser known. I can only top these with she’s having a baby and curly sue.
There's One Thing That I Do Understand, From This Video. George Wilson's House, And Dennis Mitchell's House Are Private Residencies, So We Must All Be Respectful.
Jeannie Russell (Margaret from the TV Dennis the Menace) would've been way younger than the ladies shown in that clip when this movie was made. Shes presently 73 as of 2024.

I don’t know where that location is unfortunately. They have so many alleyways in those neighborhoods. I tried to ask Nick castle in a Messenger but no response. If I can find out which town it’s closest to I could google maps until I find it. I was thinking it might be closer to Margaret’s house.
He wanted to do surf ninjas 🥷 instead I think. I also loved that movie growing up. I had no idea rob Schneider was half Filipino. I just thought why is a white guy playing a Asian as comic relief.

I’ve seen this movie so many times, I can almost remember practically every line of dialogue. I still love it as much as I did 30 years ago.
In my opinion the best Dennis the Menace movie ever made so far, thanks for the filming location video
Right
This is the only Dennis the Menace movie ever made. I pretend the sequel never happened. None of the original cast returns and Justin Cooper sucked in the replacement for Mason Gamble as Dennis. He also plays Jim Carreys son in Liar Liar and his acting is downright awful in both movies.
What's the filming location again?
Watched the movie again today, childhood classic
When Joey told Margaret “if they didn’t have men, who would drive the women to the hospital?” 😂 he was a savage
What makes u say that? In some way he was right but a man doesn't necessarily have to drive the woman to the hospital. It could be her mother or one of her family members male or female.
He was just saying it was funny, don't look too into it or try to be offended by something that is not there lol@@bryanrizzo9377
I thought it was even funnier when he said that baby has to be installed and then she says who installs them and he says a minister and a doctor 🤣

Thanks you guys! Super cool to see all this stuff. I hope you had fun filming it. God bless!!

Evanston is my home town!! Coolness!
Dennis dont you ever come back you hear me neveeerrrr
Loved this movie growing up!! Great video 👍🏼
That neighborhood still looks good. It would be a great neighborhood to film a Halloween movie in. Definitely has vibes of Halloween 1978 in it.

Walter Matthau is a great actor, his great roles were Mr. Wilson and Borris Buttermaker in the Bad news bears.
Grumpy old men was always one of my favorites. As a kid I was surprised a movie with older actors was so dam funny
He's great as Mr. Wilson but IMO his best role is Oscar in the Odd Couple.
i think i might of seen it at the cinema as a kid, although it may have been vhs at home, hard to recall but i loved the cartoon and mr Wilson's voice! sounded like an older peter griffin.
This movie has its moments but the one I LMAO off at the most every time is when Christopher Lloyd yells at Dennis to SHUT UP and it echos.
Awesome video! This brought back a lot of memories 😊
Its a really nice neighbourhood I must say
Some of the houses in the neighborhood we visited were way nicer than what I was filming.
I bet they don't even lock their doors
Muito obrigado pelas imagens amigo! Você me fez resgatar um pedaço da minha infância nos anos 90. 👏👍
Sam took the doll because earlier in the movie Margret mentioned it was an expensive antique.
