re: Movies set in another location, but shot in Louisiana

Battleship's LA portion was solely studio filming, which could take place anywhere.

not entirely ... they shot a big SFX scene at the Shaw Center.

It's always a challenge to shoot a city for another, but that's part of movie magic and you have to get creative. The portion of people that notice it are from the area. Most of the movie going public won't and shouldn't notice.

Hell, Oblivion was shot mostly in BR as well as a good bit of Battle Los Angeles. A full replica of the Oregon Twilight house was built at Celtic.

I'm in Georgia now and we are playing Atlanta for Los Angeles
