My old neighborhood ... Saturday Night Fever NOT BAY RIDGE - no elevated trains there. Image disappeared BUT it's the opening shot of Tony walking under the elevated trains which are NOT in Bay Ridge.

No. but I found one place in Leon (1994) on Google Maps by simply searching around, which is this picture as I still got it on my hard drive back when I took a screenshot of it in 2010 (Google Maps image is from 2009 apparently. funny how things change in 15 years or so.)...

I live in London so get to see most of the locations which tend to pop up in films set in London but one of my favourites was visiting the crummy cinema featured in An American Werewolf in London.

I've to a few on location sites where movies have been filmed. But the best is the time a got a tour of Paramount Studios and was able to see a couple of movies and TV shows being made. I was able to get the tour through a work relationship.

I think we drove past the town/dock where they shot SeaChange a long time ago. I don't remember if we went around and looked or not though.

I haven't sought any out specifically solely because they were used in a movie, but I've been to several. Some prominent landmarks in Austin, Texas featured in movies like 'Slacker' and 'Whip It,' for example. Also a building in San Miguel de Allende that doubled as the palace of the Mexican President in 'Once Upon a Time in Mexico.' Pretty sure I was at a park in Toronto that was used in some early 2000's action thriller, but I can't recall the title.
EDIT: I did visit the town of Lockhart, Texas because various locations there, most prominently the dramatic courthouse building, had been used in "The Leftovers."

I lived where they filmed "good Burger" in the 80s. It took me forever to realize that they filmed it in West covina, Ca. I'm dec. 82 born. I only lived in West Covina until april 1990. The scene Where kenan & kel steal the ice cream truck pisses me off. They are in a Rush to save good burger but when they steal the truck. They're at "Chop Shop". Yet, the building is just up the street at 437 S Glendora Ave. They're already on the same street. YET They turn right on E vine Ave. Then They take East Vine Ave to S. Azusa Ave, Then take E Workman Ave, pass by my street (Which meets workman), Then take N Vincent Ave, which meets S Glendora Ave yet they're in a hurry to save good burger before anyone eats the poisioned sauce and they the wrong way.
