If you could live in any house/castle/space station from any film, which one?

Well, how about the (completed) Mk.II Death Star, with no easy access to the power regulator via an exhaust port. OK, so its a bit gothic inside, but I'm sure there would be room for some personal touches. Plus no-one is going to charge you parking fees....
 
In a sci-fi world;
1, DS9 with the Defiant under my command, or the Enterprise D/E or the Voyager (And of course a little detour to planet Risa :) )
2, Babylon 5 with a White Star under my command
3, Stargate complex (with inbuilt Stargate)
4, Tardis (With no Daleks, Cybermen and other evil creatures in sight)
5, Serenity

In a fantasy world;
1, Hogwarts
2, The Wall (Stardust)

For a day, with temporal invincibility...
1, Sirius 6B (Screamers)
2, LV426 and Sulaco (Aliens)
3, Racoon City (Resident Evil)

But foremost I would live in my own sci-fi and fantasy worlds the most. :)
 
It's not sci-fi, not a castle or space station, but with the news of Sherwood Schwartz's passing, I'd have to say Gilligan's Island. The show was always the ultimate in escapism for me: slap-stick comedy, social commentary, and some really fine actors. I'm not saying being stranded on a tropical island would be great. Tom Hanks in Cast Away made it look pretty darn miserable. But what if it could be the way Gilligan's Island depicted it? I read one interpretation of the show where the castaways all died in the storm, and the island was heaven. This would explain why they could never get "rescued."

Like Conway in Lost Horizon, I wonder if Wrongway Feldman is out there somewhere breaking his heart trying to get back to the island...
 
During the original airing of GI people (this is Americans, mind you... of which I am one) were literally, actually writing in to the network demanding why they didn't contact the Coast Guard to rescue those people.

Yes.
 
Tamson House from Charles de Lint's Moonheart and Spirit Walk.

Edit: Um... ooops... I misread the title of the thread. These novels have not been made into films. I'll have to think about places from movies...
