The tree house from Swiss Family Robinson
That was cool. I actually lived with a girlfriend who had a tree house that we would stay in on nice evenings - not quite so elaborate as Swiss Family Robinson of course - and we found it pleasant during the summer although she complained about the bathroom facilities at times.
Aww, you stole my idea.
I’ll just have to say Manderly…after the fire. Haha! Wait…d’oh!
:smack: Bus Guy picked before me…oh well, I probably would’ve fired the prick halfway through, anyway.
I wouldn’t mind hanging out at the cement pond with Elly Mae, either.
You don’t have to kick me out. Since I’m going for the Gaudi version of Bag End, maybe you’d like the Hundertwasser version - or something on the tamer side. It would seem advantageous to have neighbors named Cake.
Why choose Bag End when Moria is furnished and empty. I think I’d like 221B Baker Street. Or the Playboy Mansion IF it comes ‘furnished’ 
My first choice too. It’s not big but it’s well-designed and comfortable. My second choice would be the house from The Others – all that woodwork and those big airy rooms – makes me swoon.
I kinda like Norman Bates’ house too – the entry way and the stairs especially, and Mother’s big bedroom. Might want to redecorate though.
Jenny Fields’ house in The World According to Garp.
The Vandamm house from “North By Northwest”. This was absolutely the first thing that popped into my head, so it has to be what I really like. Although that Frank Lloyd Wright style has always appealed to me.
You know, that’s the house up on the hill with the huge great room and the cantilevered porch? And all the stone? Very cool.
Hearst Castle, mostly for the pools.
Is it too late to change to the house from Body Double?
Oh, the inhumanity!
Valete,
Vox Imperatoris
Taliesin, before all the horrible stuff happened.
I liked it, too. But that highway’s going to be built, and then what’s to be done with the motel? And when the swamp is drained…ah.
I think most people would kill to get into Rosemary’s apartment in the Bramford, in Rosemary’s Baby. (Kill…carry the son of Satan…it’s all the same to me.)
Castle Grayskull. Fuck yeah. 
Anyway, failing that…
The first house my grandparents lived in, after I was born…but here’s the catch: everything scaled up (with concessions made to counters and at least some stairs) to the same size relative to me that it was when they moved, when I was about 8.
Screw that “wow…everything’s so much smaller now” feeling. I want happy nostalgia, not a reenactment of the aircraft graveyard scene from The Best Years of Our Lives.
Other nominees:
•The Mt. Rushmore house from North by Northwest
•Jack Skellington’s house
•Frank Lloyd Wright’s Mile-High Illinois. (Never built)
Eh, I could probably think up others…some of them not even fictional. 
Hmm. My immediate response is Green Gables (from Anne of Green Gables), which is of course somewhere I’ve never actually been or seen. I have no idea what the floor plan is actually like, but it always seemed so very homey in the books that it must be a good place to live.
Monticello is another good choice. Those octagonal rooms are awesome.
Perfect except for that asshole Barry Gibb bought it and burned it down. I was there. It was a nice place.
The Addams Family Mansion.
The Incredibles’ house. Even without superpowers.
I’ll take the apartment Mr Big bought for himself and Carrie in the Sex and the City movie. Of course, the walk-in closet would have to be done first.
