The title card that ends the scrolling credits reads all Ennis house scenes were filmed on location and shot on the property LOS ANGELES, NOVEMBER 2019. The movie "Blade Runner" (1982) ends it's opening credits with the exact same font reading LOS ANGELES, NOVEMBER 2019. This is especially significant because Harrison Ford's character Deckard lives in a futuristic apartment modeled after Frank Lloyd Wright's Ennis house, a California state landmark originally constructed in 1923. Although Deckard's interior apartment was filmed at the legendary Pinewood Studios in the village of Iver Heath, England the inspiration of the use of the textile blocks as well as the exterior of Deckard's apartment building is based on the Ennis house. Ridley Scott's true vision for the film was realized in a later release of his director's cut. John G. Alvidsen who directed the "Karate Kid trilogy " chose to use the exterior and interior for the third movie. Terry Silver's fortress in "The Karate Kid Part III" (1989) is the same Mayan Temple inspired mansion. Unlike Blade Runner, the Karate Kid Part III filmed on location at the Ennis house. "Cobra Kai: Vietnam Vengeance" (2020) was of course an ultra low-budget production that couldn't possibly acquire the 6 to 7 figure price tag to be granted permission to film on the property. Keith Stahle who played Kreese was able to make an appeal in costume the morning the gorilla film team arrived at the Ennis house. The skeleton crew waited at the gate and Hollywood magic happened. The foreman of the construction crew graciously opened the gate and film history was made. No other movie will ever be able to say it filmed in November, 2019 at the "Blade Runner" house.
