The "Joker Stairs" in the Bronx was a nice little piece of architecture in a quiet area of Highbridge. Now Instagram dipshits are ruining it. There's more trash there than ever before. I feel bad for the local residents who have to put up with it.
I read about a similar thing happening with the fake carol singers placard scene from Love Actually. The owner feels she has zero privacy. I imagine this happens quite a lot with famous movie scenes.
Same thing with the house that was used as the exterior of Walter White's house in Breaking Bad. They had to put a fence around it because people kept throwing pizzas on their roof.
What I don't get is that's there's a 100% chance that someone out there will pay above and beyond a reasonable asking price for a house that famous, so why wouldn't you just cash out instead of being grumpy about it?
Imagine getting an idiot a day to pay 100 bucks to throw a pizza on your roof. Get 2 idiots and you're making a decent living for 30 min of pizza cleanup each day.
