Please remember this is not my full time job like some other UA-cam channels.
I enjoy making these videos of our travels. I have a large family and it’s not fair to drag everyone to locations that are not interesting to them.

This movie was a huge part of my childhood and a true classic
I would watched this very much on VHS. The greatest movie of a kid being a menace.
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.
@@bryanrizzo9377what about Pelham 123?
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 😂😂😂
But where are the handcuff keys 🔑 ?
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 🤣
@@bryanrizzo9377 woah! Buddy relax it was just a movie. Lighten up
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.
Duude, this is awesome! Never seen anyone cover these locations. Great job. I love this movie 😂
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
Watched the movie again today, childhood classic
I was waiting for someone to record decent material about it. Greetings from Poland
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?
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.
30 years and it's still there awesome 😮
Noticed that the same thing
@@mrs.camillewarrenempress3115Kevins 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.
@@bryanrizzo9377 yep facts never forget into memories thank Bryan you have a nice night
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.
Home Alone 1 & 2 are my favorite John Hughes movies
John Hughes was the greatest to handle movies of the past.
Such beautiful place!!! I love America❤
That whole neighborhood is still beautiful. I’m obsessed with tree lined neighborhoods ❤
Thank you very much for doing this filming locations. I wanted someone to do this.
I’m in my 40’s and this movie still brings a smile to my face. Along with “Problem Child 2” 🤣 So hilarious! It’s kiddie, but it’s from my youth!
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.
This town was a huge part of this movie. It was like the main character and the vibe. I remember, even as a kid, thinking it was the perfect town to be a kid in.
Thanks you guys! Super cool to see all this stuff. I hope you had fun filming it. God bless!!
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 love this movie
Brilliant job well done looked like so much fun to film thanks for sharing 😅
Loved this movie growing up!! Great video 👍🏼
Thanks for the video! Im also one who grew up with this film, greetings from Norway
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.
Cool video man. I'd love to check these locations out some day. Keep up the good work!
finally Filming locations for Dennis the Menace.. classic :)
Excellent coverage on the movie locations
Thanks for showing us the filming locations of Dennis The Menace movie from 1993 ,it still looks the same.But have changed a little bit.
Well done! Subscribed. Greetings from the Netherlands.
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 😉
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.
This is one of my Favorite Movies of All Time ❤❤❤
Brilliant video my friend thank u
This is a great idea for a full time dedicated youtube channel. If think if you nail the formula on this type of video you could be on to a winner.
RIP Walter Matthau aka Mr. Wilson.
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.
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
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.
@@jasonhylnd001 yeah I have them all mapped out. Maybe after I get back from Philadelphia and New Jersey the wild fires will clear out.
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.
Muito obrigado pelas imagens amigo! Você me fez resgatar um pedaço da minha infância nos anos 90. 👏👍
Evanston is my home town!! Coolness!
Awesome video! This brought back a lot of memories 😊
love that they used the poem by E. Field😊🌸
30 years later
Great that you showed it buddy. Going back to the bridge, is there actually no train there or was there once?
VERY GOOD BUDDY
Sam took the doll because earlier in the movie Margret mentioned it was an expensive antique.
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).
I saw this a few times in the theatre in 1993, the first time I saw it was at the drive in theatre with the added feature free Willy
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.
very nice
Wow!
I can only be your hostage till tomorrow. I have church in the morning.
I LMAO every time Christopher Lloyd yells at Dennis to shut up and it echos.
This is my favorite movie by the way
Dennis dont you ever come back you hear me neveeerrrr
I used to work in Hinsdale 15:40!
😊🙏♥
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.
I wish you had shown more movie clips of the locations. It's kind of hard to tell. I need to watch the movie again now.
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.
Sucks Mr. Wilson's gorgeous house is covered by all those trees now.
Yeah and that it has that shade thing on the porch. Might be a totally different look after the leafs fall .

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.
Probably since it was another John Hughes character, maybe that's why
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.
@@maximusprime3459 I believe it was makeup to look older. But I’m not a 100% since she didn’t have a credited role. I compared the three women and I definitely saw some similarities.
I think it was on IMDb that said she was in the movie also
Good movie..
According to what it looked like in Google Maps, Mr. Wilson's address was this: 1618 Ashland Ave., Evanston IL, 60201.😉
Paul winfield driving around as a cop, protecting the neighborhood.
So you did a filming locations video for a movie that maybe 17 people saw?
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.
R u kidding this is a classic
This movie does not make me think of Home Alone 16:40!
Speaking Of Dennis The Menace 1993 Movie I Have That Movie On DVD and I Have The Dennis The Menace 1993 Music Soundtrack I Look Forward To See The Dennis The Menace Filming Locations Then and Now From Gegham Gary Izmirian
Come on filming locations for breakfast club
Where is the location where the robber stoled the cross eyed kids apple that alley?
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.
brah his never played in groundhog day i just looked
Mason began his film-acting career at age six when director Harold Ramis cast him in Groundhog Day (1993). Three months later, Mason won the title role in the hit comedy, Dennis the Menace (1993).
His scenes were cut not even sure if they even filmed them
Leslie Nielson RIP was offered the role of Mr. Wilson and rejected it.
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.
@@Neverhome365 I'll have to check out Surf Ninjas sometime. It looks funny and I enjoy Rob Schneider in movies too eventhough alot of people can't stand him. I read that Leslie Nielson was also offered to star in Hotshots as Admiral Benson. He would've been awesome in that role considering Airplane and the first two Naked Gun films. He was burnt out doing spoof movies which is why he rejected the role and it went to Lloyd Bridges. Nielson waited until 1994 when Naked Gun 3 came out to do another spoof movie.
The pessimistic movie critics are obnoxious.😒
You didn't go to Wilson's house😢
It’s in there I’ll add bookmarks it’s right nest to Denise house with those decorations under the bump out
7:14 is mister Wilson’s house it’s very over grown and they have a privacy screen on the porch. Really wanted to see that backyard but that whole do not disturb rule
Are there still rails and train running on this bridge?
