Line 56:
* ''[[Garden State]]'', obviously.
* In ''[[Dude, Where's My Car?]]'' the good Aliens threaten to banish the bad Aliens to none other than Hoboken, NJ.
* The first half hour of [[The Remake]] of ''[[The War of the Worlds (2005 film)
** For that matter, the infamous 1938 radio show was also set largely in New Jersey.
* The New Jersey Turnpike makes notable appearances in ''[[Being John Malkovich]]'' and ''[[Men in Black (film)|Men in Black]]''.
Line 83:
{{quote|'''Eddie:''' Baby, there's nowhere else in the world like the Garden State! You got miles of swamps and mountains of dumps... different colored rivers... automobile graveyards, breweries, factories, ballparks, all mixed up together. It's the best place to live.
'''Diane:''' Uh huh. Then why does the Statue of Liberty face the other way? }}
* ''[[The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension]]'' takes place entirely in New Jersey (allegedly; one must ignore the [[California Doubling|palm trees]] outside the New Brunswick police station to maintain [[Willing Suspension of Disbelief]]). Among the locations it visits are New Brunswick, Princeton, and Grover's Mills -- and the Banzai compound is located in Holland Township. It's an odd mix of accurate and [[Did Not Do the Research]]; the 1930s-vintage physics lab at Princeton is spot-on, but rural Grover's Mills looks like an industrial park.
