i saw this movie way back in the day, and ever since then i've been asking everyone where those fountains are... because i want to go there and have a hot date like preston did. if someone could please help me out, it would be much appreciated!!
the fountains are at a theater in los angeles, i saw a musical there and recognized them. i forget the name of the theater, but it is a famous one, like the ahmenson theater or something.
Terrible, horrible movie, but really cool fountains.
The fountains are in Dallas. They are a part of a series of water gardens surrounding this really interesting skyscraper there called, very fittingly, Fountain Place.
The real house in the movie is a historical landmark here in Austin. Pemberton Castle is this old early 1900's home. Actually, it was put up for sale late last year. Asking price? Try 2 million. (The historical value alone makes it a pricey property, but it's a 4000 square feet one-of-a-kind home...I mean if your into the whole living in a 100 year old castle thing & happen to have 2 mil laying around.) :o)
That kid got one hell of a bargain at 300k. <rolls eyes>
i've been watching the 2007 NBA finals, and in particular the Houston/ Utah series, and when the games are in houston, they keep showing these exact fountains. Are there a second set in Houston, or are they showing us Dallas, which is pretty unfair to the city of houston if thats the case. Also i made a bet with a friend about this, so it is time sensitive since she is leaving the country soon. Thanks gang.
Well I go to school near Dallas, and live in Houston the rest of the year...but I'll definitely go check out those fountains in Dallas sometime this semester!
As far as similar fountains in Houston, there is the Water Wall near...uh, it used to be called transco tower, but now it's the williams tower, and pictures can be seen here:
