Goodbye Hollywood Locationless, Locationless, Locationless

If you saw the movie Bird on a Wire, you may remember Mel Gibson riding
through Fan Tan Alley in a great motorcycle chase scene.

Stopped by the Bagdad Cafe in Newberry Springs, California for some grub with Esquimaux and Mamaloo after a long and hysterical day of caching around the area. The movie "Bagdad Cafe" was filmed here. The servers there treated us like gold and we had an absolute blast. They even have a guest book to sign, and you know how we cachers love to sign stuff! The food was pretty good too! TFTC!

This site was used in a scene in the movie "Getting Even with Dad" with Macauley Culken and Ted Danson. It's located in Rohnert Park, California. Thanks, and goodbye cache...

A Civil Action starring John Travolta
Although storyline in set in Woburn, Massachusetts, much of the filming took place in the Blackstone Valley, particularly Riverdale and the ground and building of the mill complex there.

This row of quanset huts was used in filming a scene in the beginning of the most recent incarnation of "Pearl Harbor." I'm referring to the one with Ben Affleck, Liv Tyler, Cuba Gooding Jr, and the rest of the gang.

Although the specific one used for the shot was demolished last year to make way for a new building that the base apparently needed more, the scene that was filmed along this strip was the one where Ben Affleck's character is standing outside arguing with Josh Hartnett's character and some other minor character hollers over to them something to the effect of, "Hey, are you two coming to the Nurse's Ball? They're not gonna wait forever, ya know!!" while hanging off the bottom step of a big truck.

Ironically enough, when the "attack" scenes were being filmed over Oahu, HI, I was actually on deployment over there, so it was really cool to see all the vintage and replica aircraft flying overhead as they were staging this "huge" battle scene in what is known as the "mothball Navy" over there. Basically, a collection of decomissioned ships just moored off in a corner of Pearl Harbor somewhere... This was ocurring during the first 3 months or so of 2000.

When we returned to our home base, here in Port Hueneme, CA, in May of 2000, life went back to normal again until film crews began toying with one of the buildings "over there." After talking to one of the set-building guys, a few friends and I were able to find out that there was going to be another scene filmed right on OUR quiet little base!! IMAGINE THAT!! And to find that Ben Affleck himself would probably be there!! YaaaaY!! So, I came back later in the afternoon when they told us it was going to be filmed, and actually got to stand around off the set to watch them film the scene. What topped it all off however, was getting to meet Ben himself, and getting his autograph on the jacket to my "Armageddon" VHS movie jacket. The other interesting person/autograph I got to meet that day was Michael Bay, the producer of both "Armageddon" and "Pearl Harbor" movies...

Current pictures of the site will be uploaded as soon as I return to work from the holiday weekend. The home computer is just NOT wanting to recognize the mini-disc from the computer, but the work one does... Coords given are for the furthest building to the left, closest to the one that was ACTUALLY used in that particular scene... Hope this will satisfy the requirements!!

“The Long Kiss Goodnight†– Windermere, Ontario, Canada

Windermere House is a beautiful old resort in Muskoka. People used to come by steamship to spend their vacation here on Lake Rosseau. Windermere house burnt down in 1996 when the movie “The Long Kiss Goodnight†was being filmed starring Genna Davis and Samuel E. Jackson. Many people blamed the lights from the movie set for setting this landmark ablaze, but this was never proven. The film ended up moving to another small town in Ontario to be completed. Windermere house was rebuilt to its former glory (but now with fire protection) and is still a very popular destination for tourists. I have attached a link from a movie trivia site to show this hotel was in fact in the film.

This is the Hartwood Acres Mansion where filming was completed September - October 2005 for the movie "Chasing 3000". The plot involves two brothers who drive across country to see their hero, Roberto Clemente, get his 3000th hit. Thanks for the cache. Keith and Susan

This waypoint is somewhere in the middle of the Hawthorne Bridge in Portland, Oregon. The chase scene from "The Hunted" was filmed here (with fake tracks supplied for the "train"!). Haven't seen the movie, but hear on good authority that it wasn't so great. A brief review from a local paper is here: http://www.portlandtribune.com/archview.cgi?id=17041

The coords for the picture are a bit SE of the bridge so that we could get a good picture of more of the bridge. Coords for the photo spot are N 45 30.685 W 122 40.068

Dumb and Dumber at Truck stop in Tooele, Utah

Movie: Married to the Mob (1986)

Scene: The 'Burger World' scene. Actually a Burger King in South Hackensack, NJ. Here's the 'authority' http://www.inthe80s.com/movielocations/m.shtml

This movie was critically acclaimed as Michelle Pfeiffer's greatest comedic performance. Which, I am supposing, is a lot like my greatest rap song.

This was fun to research........Thanks for the reverse!

I figured I would tag-a-long on my GOOD WILL HUNTING log from before. Just down the road from the Baskin Robbins, and across from Harvard Univ. (by Harvard Square) there is the Au Bon Pain that Will and Skylar have lunch at while he tries to help her with her homework.

These are the houses of the 'Creeds' and their neighbor played by Fred Gwynne in the 1989 Stephen King movie 'Pet Sematary'. It was filmed, in part, in Hancock, Maine, about an hour's drive from Stephen King's home in Bangor.

In spring, 2005, the film "The Island" was filmed partly on location in Detroit, Michigan. There were street scenes with lots of cars chasing each other and there were scenes filmed in and around the abandoned Michigan Central Railroad station. When baseball teams travelled by train from city to city, they utilized this depot because it is located less than a mile down Michigan Avenue from the old Tiger Stadium. For info and still pictures from "The Island" visit: http://www.detroitfunk.com/archived/2005/07/the_island_part_1.html

Welcome to Shoreham Airport West Sussex England. Here they have been filming on location for the new film The Da Vinci Code. A beatiful little airport which saw a lot of action in WWII. It is now used for private flights and flying tuition as well as an airshow once a year but is rumoured to be expanding to do european flights.

Place Royale, in Quebec City (Canada), where Steven Spielberg and his crew shot a few scenes of the movie "Catch me if you can" with Tom Hanks and Leonardo DiCaprio.
Thanks for this interesting cache !

Note : Pics will be added later today...

This site was used in the danish movie "Nordkraft". Its a bridge connecting the two cities Aalborg and Nørresundby i Denmark.

In the movie the bridge is used several times. A tire-whining u-turn in a taxi, suitcases with money thrown of the bridge and persons walking over the bridge.

Watch trailer at http://www.nordkraftfilmen.dk/ Different sequences from the bridge is visible in the trailer.

The setting of Land of the Dead (2005), which was filmed in Toronto, Canada, is a post-apocalyptic world where zombies dominate and the living have been confined to a ruined metropolis and its environs. I'm not much into these types of movies, and I didn't actually see it, but in previews and on TV commercials, the atrium in BCE Place is figured prominently. It's a very cool spot. If you were to go here on a regular day, you would see the power-suits walking around, instead of zombies (as if there's a difference).

Downtown Detroit was where alot of the scenes from Eminem's flim 8 Mile were shot. All the competions in the movie were held here as well as many street and ally shots were done here. Towards the end of the flim you clearly see the front of the building as Eminem is walking away.
This is a concert hall and is where many got there starts.

So many people have been thru this area but no one has really posted much for GOOD WILL HUNTING. The Coordinates are for a Random Spot at Harvard University, of which much of the movie takes place in and around. One of my favorite scenes takes place here at BASKIN ROBBINS, just outside Harvard Square.

This is where Matt Damon has the great dialogue of:
"Do you like apples?"
"What?"
"Do you like apples?"
"Yes, I like apples?"
Bang on the window with the paper...
"I got her number. How do you like those apples?!"

I love it!!!!

Go to Harvard Square after watching the movie and check out other locations!!!

Years ago, an old colleague told me that he stayed in Florence in the hotel depicted in the movie “A room with a viewâ€. We had the opportunity to spend some days in Florence and checked the caches in this area. Probably the name of a nearby cache, “a stairway with a view“, was the reason why I remembered the stay of my friend. Indeed I was also searching locationless caches to be logged before the end of the year. I tried to find were the movie hotel was situated. A quick web search gave the answer: http://www.movie-locations.com/movies/r/roomwith.html . It was the “Pensione Bertoliniâ€, which closed down in the 1990s, but is now renovated and reopened again as the “Hotel degli Orafiâ€. By the way, we logged the regular cache “a stairway with a view†right after this log.

The photos and coordinates are of Darrell K. Royal Memorial Stadium. This stadium is home to the Texas Longhorns football team at the University of Texas at Austin.

Tommy Lee Jones and Cedric The Entertainer along with a ton of Hollywood crew bombarded the University of Texas at Austin campus as they filmed "Man Of The House" in 2003.

Scenes from the 'game' were filmed during the Arkansas-Texas game in September 2003. Arkansas won the game 38-28.

In the past, UT has been averse to lending their intellectual property to movies. This movie is the first movie to use the full and actual name of the University of Texas at Austin, have the permission from the University to use well-known UT symbols including: the UT tower (lit in orange and white - traditional lighting when a football game is won), Bevo (the longhorn mascot), UT cheerleaders, UT band, UT spirit organizations, and the UT Texas Exes.

Robo Cop 2 filmed scenes in downtown Houston, Tx, in 1990. This is of special note for us as our son was an "extra" in the movie. This satirical science fiction film was released in 1990 and set in the near future in a dystopian metropolitan Detroit, Michigan. It is the sequel to the 1987 film RoboCop. The title character is played by Peter Weller, who also played RoboCop in the first film. However, although a second sequel and a television series were made, this was the last time Weller played the role

THis is the actual movie set (that I snuck onto with a GPS) for "Flesh Walkers" this summer. Its a western/werewolf movie (as a lot of Canadian flicks are.. it seems..)

It was taken in the small town of Creemore Ontario, which is best known for its beer, Creemore Springs. The pictures were taken following the scene of a shoot'em up roof-top battle. The entire town showed up to watch.

I found it in Solingen, Germany, here is the Parkinghouse from the TV-Thriller "Alarm fuer Cobra 11".In the Film Trailer can you see how a car breaks through the Wall from the 2nd floor of the Parking House.

Here is an Link to a Fan Page : http://www.cobra11-fc.de/start.php

This is one of the sites of the Bruce Willis movie "Stricking Distance"

This is a picture of the sign on 8 Mile Road. This is were Eminem filmed him movie 8 Mile. Most of the movie was actualy filmed in Detroit and the near by neighbor hoods. Emenem actualy grew up in the suburbs of Detroit.

This is "Eckley's Miner's Village" located near Freeland, PA. It was established in 1854 as a coal mining town. There are still about 50 residents here, ancestors of the original miners. In 1968, Paramount Productions filmed the movie, MOLLY MAQUIRES, starring Richard Harris and Sean Connery, here at Eckley. Today, Eckley is on the national register of historic places.

Location: Hansestadt Lübeck, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.

This is the Holstentor, Lübeck's famous medieval city gate. It is one of the many locations in the city centre that were used in the filming of "Vier gegen Z", a mystery series for children. The first season was broadcast in 2005, a second season is currently in production.

Plot:

After the death of their Grand Aunt Hedda, four children named Pinkas, Otti, Karo and Leonie find out that they are the new "Watchers", who have to prevent the evil Zanrelot (played by Udo Kier) from leaving his realm in the underworld and using his magic powers to seize control over Lübeck, a plan he has been following for centuries.

We drive by this location often. It's in Lehi, Utah and was used as one of the locations for the movie: Footloose.

The movie "Horse Whisperer" was filmed in Big Timber, MT and just out of town up the Boulder River Valley. The Flying J Motel was where Robert Redford's love interest stayed with her daughter and their horse before driving out to the ranch.

American Graffiti
Concord, CA – Buchanan Field Airport

Ok, this was a fun one to do! I had to do some homework and learned a few things I didn’t know.

It was the 1970’s and the 50’s were hot and were relived in everything to 'American Graffiti' to 'Happy Days', to 'Lords of Flatbush', and let’s not forget 'Grease'.

The year it was released was 1973, and is one of the most popular hot rodding, 50’s movies of all time! American Graffiti! In this area, it has always been widely known that it was filmed in the Santa Rosa and Petaluma area, which is about an hour north of us.

I recently learned (due to this cache) that the final minutes of the film were taken here in Concord, California, at the Buchanan Field Airport. I discovered this using the Internet Movie Database, or IMDB, found here: (http://www.imdb.com/).

In the final minutes of the film, Curt Henderson (Richard Dreyfuss) decides to go off to college. He, his family, the other main characters played by Ron Howard, Paul Lemat, Charles Martin Smith, Cindy Williams, see him off at the plane.

In this scene Toad tells Curt, “Stay cool, man…and, uh…don’t do anything I wouldn’t do!’, then John follows with, “I know, uh... you probably think you're a big shot, goin' off like this...[he slaps Curt]...but you're still a punkâ€.

I watched the movie last week, made some notes about the surrounding light post, oil tanks beyond etc. On Friday, I went and took some pics. I was surprised I found the exact spot (especially with airport security these days).

The picture of the red striped light post can clearly be seen in the movie, along with the oil tanks at the refineries beyond. The fence line has been changed rather recently…the plane tie-downs are still in the pavement in the (now) parking lot.

This information can be confirmed at IMDB here: (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069704/)

I attempted to get a 'screen capture from the DVD, but was unsuccessful. Visited 11-11-05; logged 11-13-05

This was a hotel used in the movie Navy Seals. Charlie Sheen runs out of the hotel and jumps in his car and speeds away. This picture is taken from the exact spot that I was standing in when I watched them film that scene, over, and over, and over, and over again.

This site is the Rosecliff mansion in Newport,RI. Arnold Schwarzenegger dances the tango in the ballroom of this site in the movie True Lies. Unfortunately due to the historical value of this mansion we are unable to take a photo of that room. Arnold also gets in a fight outside in the left corner of the photo.

I saw this place in the movie "Taking lives" with Angelina Jolie.

A female FBI profiler is called in by French Canadian police to catch a serial killer who takes on the identity of each new victim. In this movie, we have a view of Quebec City and his famous Château Frontenac, when the FBI agent (Angelina Jolie) arrived in Canada.

Taking lives (2004)

One of the sets of "23".
This German movie tells the story of computer hacker Karl Koch in the mid-80s. He lived in Hannover and sold his hacked information to the Soviets. This caused a big scandal in Germany.
Karl Koch died under misterious circumstances at the age of 23.

The set was located in Linden. This quarter of Hannover is mostly very nice. Mostly. See the photo.

Thanks,

This building was used in the Movie "Dumb and Dumber". It is the TA truck stop in Lake Point, Utah.

Certain sections of the remake of the 1972 epic "The Poseidon Adventure" was filmed in this warehouse. Apparently this location was chosen as the cost of building the set was relatively low as well as the availiblity of skilled ship builders are readily availible. This is in Cape Town South Africa.

I saw that another cacher I know just logged this locationless cache in Sarnia Ontario for a differant movie.

It had jogged my memory from this past summer when a local independant grocery store was closed down for a day. When they reopened the next day there was a note on the door apologizing to the customers and it had metioned that a film crew was in using the inside of the store for the movie Cheaper by the dozon 2 with Steve Martin, Bonnie Hunt, Hillary Duff, and Carmen Electra. I used the IMDB to do a search to confirm this, plus I remember a article in The local paper (The Mississauga News), even thought it says Toronto Ontario , the store is in Clarkson/lorne Park which is a subdivision of Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.

The name of the store is Battaglia's marketplace

I took some pictures of the ouside of the store as the store owners probably not like me taking photos in there store.

14th St. Viewing Dock, Astoria, OR
This site was used in the 1992 filming of Free Willy starring Jason James Richter and Lori Petty.

The movie location that I am logging is from the movie Bless the Child released in 2000 starring Kim Basinger.

There is a car accident about halfway through the movie. The bridge where the car "accident" takes place is actually the Blue Water Bridge between Sarnia, Ontario and Port Huron, Michigan. It was being "twinned" at the time so the whole bridge was closed down for repairs and was available for numerous re-takes. The scenery shots of NYC were then placed in the background, although people who grew up there recognize the shores as being Sarnia and Pt. Huron, respectively, not NYC.

The movie location that I am logging is from the movie THE SCORE released in 2001 starring Robert De Niro, Edward Norton, Marlon Brando and Angela Basset. A large part of this movie was filmed in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Plot summaries for THE SCORE: Nick Wells, a professional criminal, decides to leave the business for good, since he nearly got caught on his last job. His plan is to live in peace with his girl Diane, running his Montreal jazz club NYC. Soon Max, his good friend and financial partner in the illegal affairs, comes along with an offer Nick can't refuse: A historical and priceless French sceptre has been discovered while being smuggled into the country. It is now under massive surveillance in the Montreal Customs House, and soon to be returned to France. Nick has to team up with Max' man inside, the young, talented and aggressive thief Jackie Teller to get the precious item, and suffer no more financial problems ever. Only one question remains: Who will trick whom out of their share?

This location is a service entry used to access a part of the Montreal's water filtration plan. In the film, it represent a sewer entry used to access the basement of the Montreal Customs House. I'm sorry, I don't have any screenshot from this film.

This is St. Clair High School located in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada.
Micheal Moore came to town to film for his movie Bowling for Columbine and used the school as a back drop. Several other places of interest were used as well, including the mayor Mike Bradley.

The Name of the movie in "UNFAILFUL" starring Richard Gere and Diane Lane. This scene I am explaning was shot in Peekskill, New York infront of a retail shop that was made into a police station for the movie. Richard and Diane play a couple living in the N.Y City suburbs whose marriage goes dangerously away when his wife indulges in a adult fling. Diane wants more in her marriage. She become obessed with a stranger and eventually starts an affair. I will not tell you anymore just incase you didn't see it. But at the end of the movie the couple are sitting in the car infront of the police station (the pic I took is of that building) Trying to make a deciding on what to do. In the movie yo9u cam see the colors on the windshield and in the rain drops of the street light above, there is not streetlight there now only for the movie.Also at the end of the movie they show a bridge infront of them no bridge there in real life, if u drove straight there u would end up at the river front green. My wife and I went down and watch as they filmed this scene. Thanks for the cache had great fun.

With all the great movies filmed here, the only one I could find a location on, that I had even heard of, is the campy Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Sigh. From the famous "Strange things are afoot at the Circle K" scene, filmed at the Circle K at 1010 West Southern Avenue at South Hardy Drive in Tempe.

This B-52 Bomber was featured in BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE, Michael Moore's anti-gun movie. It is on static display at the North Entrance to the US Air Force Academy. Michael took exception with the commemorative plaque that regaled a Christmas bombing raid this aircraft did over North Vietnam.

This is the intersection of road that was used in TERMINATOR 2. It is where the culvert that holds Bull Creek cuts diagonal across Havenhurst Ave. and Plummer St. in North Hills California. In the movie there is a scene where the diesel truck cab flies off an over pass and lands in a culver right behind John on a motorcycle. As the truck comes soaring up, you can see the street name, Havenhurst. This intersection allows the truck to get a running start on Plummer to approach a temporary ramp that was built and removed, to launch the truck over the fencing and into the culvert. It is a 25-30 foot drop from the Street down to the Creek. I hope that stunt man got paid well. It was fun watching them film this, even though at the time I did not know what they were filming.

This is the Oregon State Mental Hospital used in the movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest".

This store front in Winslow, Arkansas off Hwy. 71, was used in the making of the movie "Frank and Jessie", a story about Frank and Jessie James, the notorious outlaws. The movie starred Rob Lowe, Randy Travis and Bill Paxton. The movie was made around 1995. The image I have posted of the sign over City Hall is from the actual movie that the towns leaders decided to keep. Thanks for the cache.

The movie "The Hanging of William Carr" was filmed on Dec. 17, 1897. It was produced and filmed by Frederick Guth. The movie was the first execution that was filmed. It was shot in Liberty, Mo. and showed the execution of William Carr (a farm laborer convicted of killing his three-year-old daughter).

Although the downtown of Liberty doesn't look like it did in 1897,I thought this was interesting. Liberty usually is known for the daylight bank robbery by Jesse James and gang. We have other highlights to share.

Thanks,

Liberty, Mo.

Well, since everyone here in the Denver area has tried to log 'Sleeper' sites, I though I would succeed by loging on that no one else had snagged yet. And this one was easy, since it is where I go to church.

Mile Hi Church in Lakewood, Colorado was used as the 'McDonalds of the Future' in Sleeper. The scene is best known for the Mickey D's sign that said 'Trillions & Trillions sold.'

This is the house used as one of the main residences in the film "Mayor of Casterbridge" starring Ciaran Hinds and James Purefoy, also Jodhi May and Juliet Aubrey. In the film Ciaran Hinds(The Mayor)also goes in through the wooden door that can be seen over on the left of the photo. This house is located at Corsham in Wiltshire, UK. It is just next to Corsham Court which was used in the film 'Remains of the Day, also down the end of the road is the town Hall also used in Mayor of Casterbridge. Just 3 miles away is Lacock where many films including parts of Harry Potter were made.

This is where the train scene from passage to india was filmed.

My Dad told me this bridge was on Amityville Horror when she was driving home she went over this bridge after being on the parkway.

"Fire Walk With Me"
David Lynch, director
1992

"Twin Peaks" was a television series that entranced me in the early 1990s. When the series was over, Lynch directed the theatrical release, "Fire Walk With Me."

Photos included are of locations that appeared not only in the movie but also in the television show: the "Great Northern Hotel" (in reality, the Salish Lodge next to Snoqualmie Falls in Snoqualmie, Washington) ; the "Double-R Diner" (Twede's Cafe in North Bend, Washington, with the nearby peak Mt. Si in the background); and "The Roadhouse" (the Colonial Inn in Fall City, Washington). Some of the photos were taken today, and others from a visit to the same location on a sunnier day in July. The darker photos more closely match the mood of the movie.

Some trivia gleaned from the IMDB: The pattern on the floor of the Black Lodge is the same as the pattern on the floor of the lobby of Henry's house in Eraserhead (1977), also directed by David Lynch.

Thank you for maintaining this entertaining locationless cache opportunity for the past three years.

"Coco Palms"
Wailua, Kaua'i, Hawaii
Well???? Can't remember?? Well, Elvis filmed Blue Hawaii here. Hurricane Iniki in 1992 destroyed this place and it has yet to be rebuilt. It has been bought and sold about 10 times since 92' and no one knows for sure if and when it will be rebuilt.

The old Tennessee State Prison in Nashville, Tennessee had three movies made there. The three movies are; The Green Mile (Tom Hanks), The Last Castle (Robert Redford), and my favorite Ernest Goes to Jail (Jim Varney). The prison was completed in 1898 and was the main prison until it close in 1992.

Found it. Out in the little town of Fallon Nevada. This location was a shot point for two movies. The Wizard which was about playing video games starring Fred Savage, Jenny Louis, and Christian Slater was filmed here at this now demolished drive-in theater. They had a scene here where they slept under the big screen and also played with popcorn buckets. The other was Pink Caddilac but I don't remember the scene I just remember being little and hearing about it. 15 minutes away in little Hazen Nevada a movie called Joy Ride had a scene in it with the little brothel stars above the phone scene, which you can still see driving down the highway. Just a little bit of little town history.

This is the Louisbourg Playhouse in Loiusbourg Nova Scotia. It was used as a bear pit in the Disney movie Squanto, A Warrior's Tale. I worked on this movie as an extra.

Stephen King's "Sometimes They Come Back"
Rocheport Tunnel, Rocheport, Missouri

The National Historic Register says: "The old Rocheport tunnel, 243 feet long, was built in 1893 by the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad. It was also used during the 1990 filming of the TV movie "Sometimes They Come Back" based on the Steven King story".

You can view a clip of this film at:

There is a geocache on top of the tunnel:

Timothy Road and US 20 in New Carlisle, Indiana

The exterior of this historic house was featured as the grumpy old lady's house in the movie "Prancer" that was filmed in the Michiana(Michigan/Indiana) area in the early 1990's.

Nice family film about a girl who discovers one of Santa's reindeer & nurses it back to health. There are lots of locals in the film as well as Sam Elliott, Abe Vigoda & Chloris Leachman (crabby old lady). It was fun to have them around our town while they were shooting. Think we ended up eating "with" Sam a couple of times

This house was used in the movie "Days of Thunder" the scene was shot from outside looking in thru the window and also the pool game. House is located on Tuxedo Ave in DeLand, Florida USA. There were another 6 or 7 areas used within Volusia County for this movie including the Speedway and a bridge in Daytona Beach and others. My wife and myself watched for several hours during the house scene and was able to get Tom Cruises autograph and shake his hand.
Thanks

This fish building was used in the movie Deeply (2001) starring Kirsten Dunst. It is located on East Ironbound Island on the South Shore of Nova Scotia, Canada.

We located the Kansas State Penitenary that was used in the filming of "In Cold Blood".

Movie location in Livermore, CA. The movie made here was called 'Dead & Breakfast'
Six friends on a road trip stop for the night at a Bed and Breakfast in the sleepy town of Lovelock. After a night that leaves both the Inn's owner and chef dead, the gang finds themselves under suspicion by the local Sheriff. But that's only the beginning as nearly all of the town's quirky residents become possessed by an evil spirit and pin down the friends inside the B&B. In the vein of Evil Dead II and Dawn of the Dead.

Jim Carey and Renee Zellweger made quite a stir when they bascically shut down Waterbury, Vermont (not a hard thing to do) to shoot parts of "Me, Myself and Irene" in 2000. This Amtrak station figures quite prominently in a scene in the movie.

This location is from the movie "Blue Collar" made in 1978, starring Richard Pryor,Harvey Keitel & Yaphet Kotto. This film depicted the blue collar workers and the resistance of management and corrupt union officals for fair wages. Portions of this film were made in Kalamazoo, Michigan as affirmed in the film credits.

The building being logged was used as the City Hall in the movie UHF which was filmed in Tulsa, OK. This was the scene where Billy Barty and Fran Drescher getting ready to broadcast the breaking news except for those dirty thugs from Evil Channel 8. The building is located at 9th and Boulder, Tulsa, OK and in reality is a church.

This is Lydiard Street in Ballarat, Vic, Australia.
It was used in the Film "Ned Kelly" which starred Heath Ledger, Orlando Bloom, Geoffrey Rush, Naomi Watts and Joel Edgerton.
To make it look like an 1880's town, sand was brought in to cover all of the bitumen and concrete, and GCI was used to take out 20th Century distractions

On this location parts, Lyckan outside of Göteborg in Sweden of the movie “Träpatronerna†was recorded in 1988. The scene in the movie was of workers at strike. It was a movie about a true historical event but it was filmed in the south of Sweden, but the events it was reconstructing actually happened in the far north of the country.

The location it the Towerbridge in London.

The Movie is the 1986 movie “Biggles†about half the movie is situated on and around the tower bridge, but my favourite bit is when Biggles and Jim Ferguson ‘escape’ over the tower bridge in a group of punks (well, they were still around in the 80-ies). Other nice bit: this movie gives some nice views of the knocking down of the old buildings on the site opposite of the tower. Now the location of the town hall.
Another nice bit is Biggles (form 1917) is trying to fly a polce helicopter. Good views of the bridge and it's suroundings in 1986.

This old movie theatre in Garland Utah was used in the movie Clay Pidgeons, They blocked off all the streets while filming. They also used several other locations in the area. I dont remember the year they made the movie.

In 1977 many of the scenes for the movie "Slap Shot" were filmed at the Onondaga County War Memorial Auditorium in Syracuse, NY. This was the home ice for Paul Newman's ice hockey team and many game scenes were shot here.
"Slap Shot" a Drama/Comedy had a "R" rating for its language & crude humor. The movie had a cast which included Paul Newman, Michael Ontkean & Strother Martin.
The War Memorial is now the home ice for the Syracuse Crunch of the AHL.

Coast guard the movie.

We visit the movie location in Neustadt/Germany.
You can see the set from Coast guard the movie.

The location I found is the Wentworth-by-the-Sea Hotel in New Castle, New Hampshire used in "In Dreams", a scary film. Since the filming the hotel has been completely rebuilt to be used as a luxury hotel.

A Google search at http://seacoastnh.com/The_Arts/Film/Seacoast_NH_Film_Classics/ gives the following information:

IN DREAMS 1999 98 minutes
The fading glory of the century old Wentworth-by-the-Sea hotel (before renovation) was used in a key scene of this Hollywood film shot in New Castle in October 1997. At its lowest ebb, the hotel is depicted as a ruin where a dog eats a man alive. Robert Downey, Jr, Annette Benning, Aiden Quinn.

Georgetown Park, Georgetown, D.C.
This Site I sure has been used for other movies but I remember it most for True Lies as I remember seeing The Govenator here during filming. The The entrace I took a Pic of is the door he comes out of to go to the street and then hops on a horse and mysteriously ends up 15 blocks away! Thats movie making for you tho.

Finnish movie Levottomat (The Restless 2000) was shot in Turku/Finland. The ending scene of the movie happened in the cathedral of Turku. Director: Aku louhimies.

This is the Hviezdoslav square in Bratislava, Slovakia. The car chase scene from the 1997 movie Peacemaker was shot here, though the chase in the movie takes place in Vienna. Nicole Kidman and George Clooney star in this movie.

Edit: Corrected typo

This one has been in at least three films that I know of, probably more. I'll claim the Blues Brothers. It's the scene where the Illinois Nazis (I hate Illinois Nazis!) show up looking for Elwood's last known address, 1060 W. Addison.
This structure has also appeared in Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Rookie of the Year to name two.

Will Ferrell is currently filming a NASCAR comedy in Gaston County, NC. The film is untitled and referred to as "Untitled Will Ferrell NASCAR Comedy". Several locations are being used and I've included photos of the education building of the First Baptist Church of Cramerton, NC. This building will serve as a Department of Motor Vehicles building in the movie. Columbia Pictures is producing the movie, set for release in 2006. All the locations in Gaston County are part of the fictitious home town West River, NC

This is Williams Brice Statium in Columbia, SC. It was used in the movie The Program. The shots of the games being played were filmed here. There are also railroad tracks not too far from here that were also used in the movie. My fiance Midnightcat will be using it in her log. TFTC Gunkie

The film full metal jacket (1968)was filmed in three locations but the main battle scene at the end was filmed in Becton, London, England.
Stanley Kubrick chose this area as it was very like the area would have looked in the 1930s with its functionalist architecture.
The final climax battle scene used the backdrop of the building shown, most of the area has been very highly developed but this little area has remained untouched as it is of very high historic value lucky for me.
You cannot get very close its all protected by fences it may be unsafe now.
The gps location is N51 30.166 E0 03.099

Lawrence of Arabia was produced in 1962 and stared a host of big name actors including Peter O'Toole, Omar Sharif, Alec Guiness, Anthony Quinn, and others. It won seven academy awards. It was filmed at many locations. The sand dune scenes were filmed on the southern coastal area of Spain, now a national park (Parque Natural Entorno de Donado) not far from El Rocio, Spain. We don't know the exact spot where the fiming was done so the coordinates are somewhat approximate. Thanks for a fun cache,

In 1992/3 Hollywood came to Columbia, SC to film the James Caan movie "The Program". This movie gained some notoreity from a scene wherein the characters lie on the yellow lines in the middle of the road as cars go zooming past. The scene was removed from the movie after people copied the stunt and were (not surprisingly) injured and/or killed. These train tracks run through downtown Columbia, SC. The segment shown runs between Blossom and Devine streets, and is close to Williams Brice Stadium - home of the University of South Carolina Gamecocks, and another location for this movie. Craig Sheffer walked this section of track in the movie (in this particular scene he'd been drinking, which is I suppose why his character thought it was a good idea). I would have included myself in the picture except that we figured our best shot was from the car (and I wasn't about to get out and stand on an overpass). TFTC!
