Some of us live in hollywood hotspots..others live close to a hollywood hotspot..and the rest live in an area with no movie production or have B-C movies shot in theirs....

But can you name any popular movies you can think of that was shot in your city?

Scary Movie and and Final Destination shot where i'm from..and of course 2012 which was the biggest movie. Although a lot of Hallmark stuff gets shot here too

Vancouver/Okanagan/Calgary. A few of the later Final Destinations had casts from Langley area, which is near Vancouver.

Well, not sure if they were *popular* but I know a few mainstream movies (ie, major theatrical release) were shot around the area.

Dark Knight Rises, Southpaw, Zack and Miri, Sudden Death, Striking Distance, Perks of Being a Wallflower, all of the original 'of the dead' movies... tons more. Pittsburgh is used a ton in modern movies. My office is in the dark knight rises, and I went to high school in the town where Kingpin was filmed.

A Hugh Grant/Marisa Tomei pic that pretty much went straight to video:

Near my parents' house, Doris Roberts starred in a film that never got released:

No clue, how would I even check? I know there is a movie that takes place in my birth city, no clue if if they did any camera work there though...

A quick google search suggests filming was done in the villages around the city, easier to make those appear like it was the 1930's I guess.

Edit: the Dutch wiki page suggests 1 house was used in the city, everything else were recreations or nearby villages standing in.

Jacksonville, FL here.

I definitely recall G.I. Jane being filmed there - hell, the local paper had a section that listed people who spotted Demi Moore and/or Bruce Willis at the time.

A bunch of old western movies were filmed around my town. My parents were extras in one in the 1970s, I can't remember the name off the top of my head.

Also, The Simpsons referenced my town as being the "actor" that played New York City in a TV bit on the show.

We had a documentary filmed near where I used to live about gangs in certain areas...

London, Manchester, Nottingham, Liverpool etc... Violent gangs...

Where I used to live - Muppets calling themselves a gang that drank alcohol and played football on the road while harassing neighbours...Real hardended criminals those guys!
