More quotes from Repo Man

Trivia: The tan warehouse, with the green doors and windows, directly in front of the car is the same building used as Paddy's Pub in 'It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia'. It's the Starkman Building located at 544 San Mateo Street in Los Angeles. The door used as Paddy's main entrance is located around the corner on Palmetto Street. (01:09:20)

Suggested correction: This isn't really trivia for this film as It's Always Sunny came after. Not to mention the building has been featured in numerous film and TV series, so it would be like listing a prolific actor's one other movie without making any connection between the film other than the actor (or in this case the filming location).
