City of Everywhere	comment	The City of Everywhere is a setting that only exists in comedic works. It usually claims to be one or more famous cities from Real Life, but contains an inexplicable and highly suspicious selection of features from all over the Hollywood Atlas. The City of Everywhere often has an assortment of landmarks and local color which in Real Life obviously couldn't be found on the same continent. See also Where the Hell Is Springfield?. Compare Informed Location.

City of Everywhere / int_1aa9d9f4	comment	Gotham City in the 60s Batman (1966) TV show. It has landmarks from everywhere with the name "Gotham" slapped on the front. Including a clock tower named Big Benjamin.

City of Everywhere / int_316ce2ea	comment	A wartime issue of The Beano had Lord Snooty concoct a plan to confuse the Luftwaffe pilots bombing his hometown by surrounding it with landmarks "borrowed" by the RAF from all around the world. These included the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Taj Mahal, and Table Mountain.

City of Everywhere / int_34e0e9fc	comment	In Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People: Dangeresque 3, Venice, Cairo, Ireland, Tokyo, and Paris are all the same set (which, of course, resembles none of the aforementioned places) with a really badly made prop in the background. They even have the same character (sort of) standing around in the same place in each.

City of Everywhere / int_468bebb0	comment	The city of Ankh-Morpork in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series is one such city, in a Culture Chop Suey sort of way. Clearly identifiable inspirations that stay prominent in multiple books include 18th to 19th century London and New York City for the economy and culture, Renaissance-era Venice for the system of government, Seattle of all places for the geography and occasionally Paris for a bit of variety. But basically, any time Pratchett felt like doing a Whole-Plot Reference to a work of fiction set in a particular city, he found some way to squeeze the necessary architecture and cultural traditions into Ankh-Morpork somewhere. There's also a lot of Anachronism Stew mixing up eras of the same city; for instance, a Globe style permanent theater was a new and iffy idea that had never been tried before when the city opera house across the street was already centuries old.

City of Everywhere / int_56a63131	comment	This is how The Simpsons Movie solves the Separate Simpsons Geography Thing. It's hinted in one episode where Sideshow Bob takes Bart to a location just outside of Springfield where five states meet, including Minnesota, New Jersey, and Hawaii, which does not border any other US state. Capital City gets this treatment. If Springfield is Everytown, America, then Capital City is every city. One episode claims its nickname is "the Windy Apple", and another points out famous landmarks that are completely made up.

City of Everywhere / int_6e859048	comment	Big Hero 6 is set in San Fransokyo. It combines elements of San Francisco and Tokyo, so you get trams with Oriental-style roofs, Japanese signages everywhere, and the Golden Gate has torii gates as its towers. Word of God reveals that the amalgamation is in-universe; San Francisco was completely devastated by the 1906 earthquake, and its rebuild was influenced heavily by a large Japanese immigrant community, and the name was changed to honor this.

Signage in the film indicates the city Babe visits is called "Metropolis", which has a Metropolis Gun Club and Metropolis Institute of Medicine.

Numbuh 2 wakes up to a vista that features pretty much every famous landmark there is; he suddenly catches onto something being off by the time he gets to the Sphinx. Turns out to be a miniature golf course in a basement with all the landmarks having been properly shrunken down, along with Numbuh 2 himself.
