MANNEQUIN (1987) Filming Locations | PHILADELPHIA, PA 

Love this movie!!!! I still listen to " Nothin's Gonna Stop us Now" all the time, I'm so glad these movies are still loved and remembered!💓Thanks Jordan and Jah!👋👍😍

Thank you so much for this. This was the very first movie that has made me the hopeless romantic that I am today ha ha. This movie when it came out as a child is one that I hold near and dear to my heart.

I grew up in Philadelphia and remember when the movie was filmed back in 1986. Most of it was filmed at night when the store closed, so they pretty much had the run of the place. Andrew McCarthy said he felt like a vampire trying to get used to filming at night and sleeping during the day. Pretty in Pink was released in theatres when McCarthy was in town.

One of my all time favourite films. Just great to come across your video. Love things like this. Thanks Jordan.

Excellent job hunting down those locations! That couldn't have been easy. Thank you for letting us see cute little Jah as well! 😍

I live near Camp Hill and go to the plaza where the Boscovs is often. My kids are tired of me telling them how an awesome 80s movie was filmed there. Lol

I was 11 when this film came out and I remember having a crush on Kim Catrall. There’s always a few films from your childhood that stay with you for life and this is one of them. Also Trading places that was also filmed in Philadelphia....hint hint .

This is a really good movie! I am so glad that you showed the locations! Plus love the cameos of Jah.

Hey Jordan, not sure if you knew this or not but you could’ve got a two for one while you were there. 12 Monkeys was filmed outside and inside that building as well.

I’m always in that Macy’s at Christmas time for the big light show where the organ pipes are, and the Dickens display upstairs that they have. I lived there when they filmed Mannequin and they interviewed James Spader on the news. I didn’t know they shot Illustra (sp?) at Boscovs. Glad you blogged that movie. I forgot all about it. I wish they still made movies like that.

This is one of my favorite Andrew McCarthy movies! I was 10 when it came out. I seem to remember going to the theater to see it. Once it was out on video I always wanted to rent it. I had such a huge crush on him. Amazing vlog!

This is one of my favourite movies. I’ve forgotten how many times I have actually watched it. I’m also a big Andrew McCarthy and Kim Cattrall fan. The sequel was not that good. But I do own both of them on DVD. Thanks for taking us down memory lane. Great Vlog.

James Spader! Meshach Taylor!

How much longer are you in Philly? I want to come see you and meet you!!!

A vlogger called “the old curiosity shop” has vlogs around Christmas time with the Macy’s organ being played. It’s pretty amazing.

I saw this film when it came out on a date with my girlfriend. Absolutely love the film! At the time was very curious of where the store was because it was so beautiful. Built in the days when stores and train stations were like palaces! I absolutely love that time period. And the Golden Era of Hollywood! Thanks for doing this vlog! Safe Travels J&J 🍀

Thanks Jordan for an awesome vlog! I love this quirky movie. I was able to meet Andrew McCarthy several years ago and he couldn't have been nicer. (The latest book he wrote "Brat: an 80's story" is a really good read.) Thanks again Jordan for taking us to interesting places!

mannequin great movie haven't seen it in long time but gonna go buy the DVD thanks Jordan 👍

This is one of my top favorite movies of all time! Perfect cast. Great little story. Loved Hollywood. Loved Rambo. Loved the relationship between Jonathan and Emmy. And especially loved the ending. Thanks so much for this fun vlog, Jordan!!!!

When i saw Kim the first time, I fell in love with this woman. Andrew is so lucky.. I wish i was there in the 80s but i wasn't born till 91. I LOVE YOU KIM AND ANDREW!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS.. Watched a similar video to this last night, and loved this movie since 1987 - must have watched it 50 times or more (don't worry, we all had a crush on Kim back then!) ..I live in Liverpool, UK but plan to get to Philly & New York one day, and guess where i'm going first!

This movie is one of my favourite 80th films, I watched in Germany as a kid. Im from Poland a Land that has changed in 35 years so much that many places looks total different, but here it is great to see after 35years the places looks like almost in the movie. Good work, thank you 👍

I grew up in Philadelphia and was 11 when Mannequin was filmed but I knew the locations. Fortunately I went to high school in center city (Hallahan) and was in 11th grade when Philadelphia was filmed. Very cool when I got a glimpse of Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. One place in Philadelphia that is a must see is Fort Mifflin. If you go do it in October when they do lantern tours at night. Very creepy and I got the chills more than once. Fort Mifflin dates back to the American Revolution and is fascinating in the day and scary nighttime. It’s also very haunted.

Hi Jordan. I love your video's!!! Thanks for this. I love this movie. Glad i have a dad who loves 80's movies!!❤❤

Omg I can’t believe you were in Philly and I missed you 😤🥺 I just love love love your vlogs

Great one. Now I have to rewatch Mannequin. I think it might be free on Pluto! Binge watching you as I take a break from packing for my move.❤️

Your the fucking best love you find eighty movies and show how ur correct. Love u man. U deserve a million million subs. Makes me feel good to being back my good fuckin memories. It’s actually a natural high. Keep it up

I live in Philly, just moved here and watched them film Mannequin 2 on South Street at Jim's Steaks on 4th Street. It was a night filming location.

I saw a video of Andrew McCarthy speaking and remember this time on the movie , Kim Cattrall must be too make a movie tour with Andrew ( only for the movie Anniversary ) because saw this actors remember this movie is magic ( many memories ).

That’s was a cool tour. Me and my kids really like that movie.

Total 80s flashback. Thank You!!!

Thank you for the effort making this video. I loved the movie, its really cool to see the locations.

This was amongst my favorite too. I didn't see the sequel though. I enjoy watching James Spader & Andrew square off in this movie as they did in Pretty in Pink. I chuckle with happiness when I see Andrew directing an episode of The Black List. I really hope that Andrew would have a part of an enemy or a frienemy to Spaders Reddington on that show someday.

Hi Jordan, that was great, I loved the film 'Mannequin'. How funny, I was only playing the music video yesterday 'Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now', what a fantastic song. Boy, that Sales Assistant you spoke to in Macy's has got some Macy's years under her belt if she was there when it was filmed. Jordan, you should have took Jah around in a little trolley cart ha, ha. Great job Jordan.

Jonathan’s apartment in this is my absolute dream apartment to live in, a huge studio apartment, balcony, fireplace etc.

This movie is magical! As a kid I was convinced all the mannequins at the mall came to life at night 😆💜

My favorite movie ever manequin on the move !!

This quirky movie crawled right into my heart when I saw it in the theater. So glad you really like it as well! Good job on the video!

Where was the chopper room where he went nuts to find her

Thank for making this video! I LOVE the movie, and it's so cool to see the spaces still in use!

OMG, Mannequin was a favorite movie of mine and my sister growing up! :) Also, it was great to meet you at Elvis Week, Jordan.. I met you in the lobby of the Holiday Inn. Hope you come to Boston someday! You'll love it.. so much to see.

Those jelly donuts call to me Hollywood Hollywood come and get me hollywood

Jordan, you did it again! Another great vlog. Classic 80's film I like a lot too. We're about the same age so most of the things you appreciate, I do as well. Funny movie. I haven't seen it in years and you were giving me good flashbacks. It was all coming back to me. We laughed at the same parts in the movie. I forgot how funny Spader's part was; what a snob. Cattrall was hot man. I was just about 7 years old, but whew, she was nice looking. And finally before you mentioned it, I had the Starship song in my head. Also good song. They just don't make em like they used to. Thanks a lot Jordan. God bless you and Jah.

Thanks for this video! It was great to see the inside of Wanamakers again, and knowing that is still there! Philadelphia has been locations for more movies than you'd think. Shooter, Trouble with Angels (1960's movie with Haley Mills) filmed at Arcadia University. The Reading train station in Witness. And of course Rocky! (did you run up the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum like Sylvester Stallone? What a workout!) :-)

I can't find that movie to stream anywhere. I guess I'm going to have to buy the DVD. Hopefully that exists 😒

Philadelphia, my home town!!! Born and raised 💕 Awesome Jordan….great film, great location😊 !!

Great job as always, Jordan! I loved this movie as a kid and even convinced my wife to make Starship’s “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now” as our wedding song! We’re married 20 years tomorrow

Thanks for this amazing vlog. My best friend from kindergarten Jill and I would watch this movie everyday, memorize the lines and would go to JCPenny at the mall pretend to be mannequins in the hat department. Jill past from cancer in 2015, thanks for bringing back the old memories.

I LOVED this movie when I was young! This is so interesting. The Wanamaker building is beautiful and such a neat piece of history, regular and cinema. Thank you so much for making this video. Glad to know there are other people passionate about the mannequin!

That’s my city! Hope you had a great time!

"That building" when describing the sign scene is the heart if philly thats boro hall... im related to the philly wanamaker's......theres a statue of him close by as well....Macy's does a huge Dickens walk thru in December

I have seen Mannequin and Mannequin 2: On the Move. You should find the filming locations of the second Mannequin Movie starting with the Houptmann-Koenig scene 1991

Can I please have a piece of Ike & Tina's wallpaper???? Omgah💜💜💜💜

Stuntman Pat Romano did the BMX stunt work in the movie. Pat also did Quicksilver and of course Rad!

Love, love, love this movie. My husband is from Philla and familiar with this store. I’ve been to Wannamakers that were outside of the city but never to the flagship store. How much fun!!!

AS A PHILADELPHIAN BORN IN 1982 I LOVE THIS MOVIE 🍿 🎥 AND HISTORY OF THE BUILDING IS JUST AMAZING 🤩 THE VIEW

Hey Jordan your matchups go unequaled Mannequin a fun movie with a classic Grace Slick song !!! My wife was there and heard the that organ ! Nice work !

I love this movie! Wow, do we have great tastes or what? No, I'm not a stalker or anything looney like that. Your tastes happen to jive with mine MOSTLY, but not all, but that's what makes it entertaining. I can choose whether I want to watch it or just keep scrolling, but for the most part I usually watch 😁!

Wanamakers was the most beautiful department store ever. Everything about it was magic. The toy department put FAO Schwartz to shame. And, yes, it was "meet me at the Eagle" because the store then was not as open as it seems to be now. I also remember falling down marble steps to the lower level but those steps were not shown. The Christmas display was awesome. The film was shot in 1986 after I left Philly but seeing this makes me nostalgic. I must watch the film again.

Mannequin has always been my favorite movie. What a great video!!

Thanks Jordan for this I loved mannequin was great!😊

I grew up loving this movie, it inspired me to keep dreaming, also Kim is super hot,as is Roxie ! Just a great feel good movie, I loved your reconnection , it is so good to see it still opened, ty

WOW, I haven't watched any of your videos in months, and you haven't missed a beat! I would have never guessed that you would vlog this!

Love him, and in Police Academy, Burglar, and on and on. Poor Rambo.

I watched this film in the theater in 1987, it was fun and a very watchable movie and magical. And then the Jefferson Starship song at the end really added a powerful punch of even more magic to it.

I’m going this next year. Doing the pizza place and Johnathans apartment too!

If I could afford to travel a lot seeing random movie locations is what I'd do. I always enjoy yours and Adam's vids always look like so much fun.

hilarious movie , Mr Taylor ( Hollywood Montrose ) reprised in the sequel and was the keeper of the secret Great escapades !

This movie is based in the Greek myth of Pygmalion who fall in love with the female statue that he built. Asked to Gods to give life in the statue and they did...

Love u jordan. Lots of appreciation for what you do. Lived in l.a. a while bk sad we never got to know each other .love this movie . Keep up the good work babe.

Great scene with them dancing all over the place, different costumes!

Camp Hill is only 2 hours west of Philly dude. I used to make the trek twice a week going to college.

loved this movie its my inspiration , as a window dresser i look back at how glam wannamakers was and how glum macys have made it , no greenery no colour no realistic mannequins . they even took out the window displays why couldnt they have a permanent window display in mannequins honour i have one of the same mannequin cast members from the window display she is a leaner and used in the unfinished windows and the windows where there stealing the mannequins she is an adele roostein from the english manufacturer of mannequins , you will find prince and company used many manufacturers of mannequins including roostein , grenneker, john nissen and hindsgaul

Now I want to watch this movie again!!! Really good vlog!!!

I just finished watching mannequin: on the move. Love these movies since it’s filmed in my hometown

Niiiiiice, Jordan my old home town great movie 👍👍👍 Joe.

Guess what movie I'm watching later? How did I ever miss this one? I love kookie movies and this one sounds pretty kookie to me! 👍🤣

Incredible, this is one of the best 80's movies..Jordan you knocked this outta the park 😎

You feel like you’e in the movie. How exciting! 🎉

i think that the scenes where the owner had her offices were filmed at the eye institute on city avenue next to Saks. this movie was low budget but it was a surprise financial hit

Such a cute movie,but I wasn't a fan of the second one. Blessed Be :)

Great video dude! loved this movie as a child…still might love it unhealthily lol

LOL! I Lived Rambo and when The she hang glides down!😍

Who else use to watch the TV guide channel to see what was on and this movie happened to be on replay so, would just leave it on and watch it over and over

Great nostalgic video! The floor tiles at Boscov's look the same too.

Love Andrew McCarthy!

Loved this movie was so cool to see this thanks Jordan!🙂

Hollywood's Cadillac was supplied by Restoration Station ,Browns Mills ,New Jersey

I guess I miss this movie. Will try to find it to watch.

Jordon, Where do I start? I guess just like this. I’m just a little older than you. But man do we have So much in common. From being a musician myself since bout 86 til this day and still playing. From KISS being my all time favorite band, to Loving Cousin Eddie, to Buddy Holly, and Ritchie, the Bopper and the surf ballroom. To my Love of WWE from when I was a kid in the 70’s when it was still the WWF and all the wrestlers from back then, Macho Man, Warrior, Hulk etc.. To So much more that I can’t really remember right now. But as far as this video goes. I Loved Mannequin when it came out. Just something about it, the times, my age, and I thought Kim Cattrall was so Hot in this movie. Cause I love blondes. To Rambo, to James Spaders nerdy character. Just 80’s comedy. I can quote this movie to a T, as well as so many more. Thanks For doing a Vlog on this one!!! Keep up the Good Work Jordon!!

I love this movie, from India

Thank you for this tour of our great movie. I was at a party years ago and entered a room where a lady was sitting and I said hello only to discover she was a mannequin. This gave me an idea to rent mannequins to people going out of town. I own a retired school and have placed 20 mannequins in different outfits around the building. You can buy mannequins from Walmart or Amazon for under $50 delivered.

Amazing how it’s all almost exactly the same after all these years. Great job!! I’m going to watch this movie tomorrow. It’s been years.

If you had walked into Macy's and Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now was playing, I would've started laughing and not stopped for hours.

Hello Jordan! So many great locations from this movie. I've always loved this movie, so much fun. Great music. Thank you so much for doing this video. Is this one on your bucket list to do it did you just hear about it? I love that they have those shirts. Have a great night, my friend. Blessings-Judith 🎭🎵

Great video, thanks!

this is amazing! thank you!!!

Jordan, nice to see ur fur baby 🤗

I watched that movie and I loved it!

They do a pretty good light show during holidays. Highly recommend.
