Not a movie but TV. Been to where Walt and Jesse did their first cook, hid his money, and Hank met his demise.


Thanks for the spoiler, bro.

I went to Forest Gump’s bench in Savannah


Been there too, can’t really go to it, can go to where it was, the bench was only there for the movie. They took it away after filming along with what it sat on. It’s just some landscaping. Platform and bench were built specifically for the movie.

Middleton Place Plantation - The Patriot had scenes shot there

Coit Tower - Dirty Harry

Great Smokey Mt RR - The Fugitive

The old Durham Bulls baseball stadium; where Bull Durham was filmed. We went there because of the movie & the Bulls were about to move to a new location.

I was trying to post you guys a pic, but guess I’m not smart enough. 2 weeks ago tonight my dad, a buddy, & I were staying at the “gas station” from the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre”
They have 4 little chalets in the back to stay in & we stayed at the one right where Sally was running from Leatherface toward the end.
You have to be a TCM fan to understand our excitement. ??

I’ve been in Cheoah Dam where they filmed the jump scene. They had to build the pipe he jumps out just of just for the movie cause it didn’t exist. Locals still call it Fugitive Dam.

Although the movie wasn't filmed there, I've been to the Monroe County courthouse from To Kill a Mockingbird. They put on a play there. They recreated the courtroom for the movie set.

Been to Grant Park in Chicago where the fountain at the beginning of Married with Children is.

The Truman House in Florida.

Gettysburg battlefield from the movie and countless documentaries

One of my regular bars in Mobile was the scene of a shootout in a bad Nic Cage movie

The spaceship landing from Close Encounters of a Third Kind was filmed at Brookley in Mobile. Been there countless times

I have walked around Marty Byrds house and caught fish off the dock that was wired to kill him.

I've always wanted to visit Spectre from Big Fish. It's just a little north of Montgomery.

Way too many to count. Most of us probably have.

When I lived in DC, I drove past the Exorcist fire escape in Georgetown almost every day. The most precise, exact one is when I went to Katz Deli in NYC and sat at the actual table from When Harry Met Sally.

It's not a landmark, but the scene in Zombieland with the tank while they are walking down a deserted street?

I lived in that town for a few years including while they were filming.
