Beverley hills wonderland theme park!

Hi does anyone know where this theme park was filmed? And what theme parks doubled as it?

Mr Martini

Wonderland theme park? Can you be more specific please?

I think I might know what your talking about. Are you asking about Wonderworld, in Beverly Hills Cop 3?

If so, the theme park was called Paramounts Great America. It's located in Santa Clara, California (my backyard, almost). The theme park is now called Californias Great America. It's owned by Cedar Fair entertainment group, but at the time was owned by Paramount Movie Company. I remember the casting call in the local paper. They were looking for extras, sadly I had no way of getting down there.

Hope that's the theme park you were asking about.

I thought he was meaning the customised 'theme park' from the film Richie Rich!!!

Hopefully chickenjerky will let us know. But, if it is the Richie Rich movie, a quick search brought up an item. The roller coaster in the movie is located at Six Flags Great America and called the Iron Wolf.

Thanks mr martini, yer wonderworld was what i meant!

Mr Martini

Just curious, did you just watch the movie? Did you have a question about the park?

CJ007Goldeneye

Well i've always wanted to know where it was filmed for when i do my states trip!

Mr Martini

Just so you know, if you do go the theme park, don't expect to see the three armed Ferris Wheel that was featured in the rescue scene in the movie. It was taken out a few years ago to make room for a roller coaster.
