Movies filmed at Griffith Observatory
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Griffith Observatory as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than the statements above, so it gets its own list — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.
Drawn from this place
Video games whose Japanese Wikipedia article names Griffith Observatory as a real place their setting was modelled on. Nothing was filmed here and no story happens here: somebody drew it from here. That is the weakest claim this atlas makes about a place, which is why it sits under its own heading, and each production’s page links the article the claim came from.
