A couple of roving film fangirls have recreated some of their favorite TV and movie moments by traveling to the exact locations and capturing them using their iPad. Tiia Öhman and Satu Walden have travelled thousands of miles across North America and Ireland to recapture the magic of their best loved scenes.

Here: a scene from the film Die Hard With A Vengeance, and its location in real life 72nd Street Subway, New York. (Photo by Tiia Öhman/Caters News)
