No, not the battle of Red Bank during the Revolutionary War.

They're shooting a movie here!! Two scenes, actually, for the upcoming movie "Annapolis".

I've never understood all those Covington liberal types!

What a coincidence - that's also where they shot J.R.

they shot a few scenes from "Jumanji" in my town.
I swear, the movie played at our local theater for about 4 years.

I shot a movie in the bathroom once. Romances are difficult with urine.

Obviously, you just need to do some more creative web surfing.

They shoot the Soprano's in my town in NJ every once in a while and a lot of the scenes are shot in neighboring towns.

My cities claim to fame is having more Bridal Shops per square mile then any other city. We have 22 in a small suburb of a town that's probably 2 miles wide by 4 miles long.

Highest divorce rate where I am from. Close to where I live "Hoosiers" was shot.

They shot parts of "Evita" in El Paso, along with that piece of crap Bruce Willis movie "Last Man Standing" as well as several other flicks that I can't think of at the moment.

On location filming for "Glory Road" is about to start in El Paso as well... :)
