Hey, I spent 5 days on this movie as an extra.
Everyone has already answered your major location questions though.
A couple interesting facts for you though...
-Apparently Jim Varney cancelled just before shooting at Thunderbird Mini Golf. He was supposed to play the guy running the course.
-Glenn Kulka, former football player, moonlighted as a security guard on set. He was really nice.
-Another security guard was let go after one day for giving an interview to the media.
-the day they filmed at the Supreme Court, it was very hot and a lot of extras waiting outside were getting sick. Dean Winters insisted that the crew bring them inside and give them water.
-the scene where Jenny's mom and her boyfriend are talking in the car was actually filmed at Thunderbird as well.
-originally, Jay Leno was going to play the talk show host, but due to scheduling conflicts, they brought in Casey Kasem instead.
It was a lot of fun, and the whole cast was really nice. Yasmine Bleeth was actually nice, but most people didn't meet her. And Dean Winters was friendly. He would come up to US to chat, instead of us having to approach him.
Anyways, I'm glad to see the movie is on DVD. I only have it on video and would love to keep it well preserved.
