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
These are giving me such joy. My heart aches for 80s/90s Vancouver 😢
Pre expo was the best time
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!
"Don't do this" "This is illegal" had me laughing pretty good
Great piece! Cant imagine the work it took to put this together.
I remember how much I love Odyssey Imports . Thats how I got my NWA and NIN shirts .
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Skinny Puppy! I wish the Ridge was still around. There’s no form of entertainment in that neighbourhood anymore
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 miss old Vancouver
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.
Underrated movie! That’s really cool information, didn’t know any of that! Thanks
@@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.

I live tweeted the film a few years back when that was a thing.

there's a bunch more location information there and screen shots.
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.
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.
30:00 Look who's driving. (no keys in the ignition).
And the wheel obviously locked :P
Never ending story
