It was where the lab in The Lawnmower Man was located, and it was Lore's base of operations in the ST:TNG two-parter "Descent." There's probably other places it's appeared, too; that's just the ones that spring to mind.

@jchasse: Machine-Gun-Bullet-Proof Clothes for the win. They didn't even bounce him back on impact :D

]]> <![CDATA[Admiral Adama's Death Race With A Rocket Bike]]> Of course I guess I would be that nonchalant if I was indistructible too.

jchasse

]]> <![CDATA[Admiral Adama's Death Race With A Rocket Bike]]> @QMech: I could not agree more.
This proves that we need more EJO.
What a crime that this man has not been used more on screen.

Rewatch the clip for the part where looks over his shoulder than back at the road. Total control, total calm, total badass. Love that Man.

All that gravitas and he didn't even utter one word.

Please, please someone with some talent give EJO a chance. Whatever you do will be all win from the time he appears on screen forward.

Garrison Dean, King Awesome

]]> <![CDATA[Admiral Adama's Death Race With A Rocket Bike]]> @Garrison Dean: I'd even take it without the plot. Oh, wait...

QMech

]]> <![CDATA[Admiral Adama's Death Race With A Rocket Bike]]> Wow, this has just reinforced my belief that EJO is a complete badass or at least portrays them very well.

Lizfu

]]> <![CDATA[Admiral Adama's Death Race With A Rocket Bike]]> Oh yeah that is really cool, if only there was a way I could see a longer version, with a plot, more hover bikes and more explosions and maybe throw Scarlett Johansen in there too. Well, we all can dream.

]]> <![CDATA[Admiral Adama's Death Race With A Rocket Bike]]> Does anyone think that the sound effects for the hoverbike are ripped straight from the aero cars in the Star Wars prequels?

]]> <![CDATA[Admiral Adama's Death Race With A Rocket Bike]]> @Klappstuhl: Found it.

Angel Grove is also close to the site of the Command Center (Power Chamber), the Power Rangers' base of operations, exteriors of which were shot at the Brandeis-Bardin Institute, a Jewish religious retreat in the Los Angeles area.

It's called the Brandeis-Bardin Institute. Looks cool.

P.S I really wish io9 and the rest of the Gawker universe would implement Consumerist's blockquote feature...

]]> <![CDATA[Admiral Adama's Death Race With A Rocket Bike]]> The building was also used in Star Trek VI and a few episodes of TNG. It's quite popular for scifi stuff.
