Line 161:
* ''Wildflowers'' features a full, dense forest that characters run and hide in, in the heart of North Beach, which is one of the most urban neighborhoods in the city. The forest appears to be either Golden Gate Park or one of the other parks close to the beach, which are essentially on the opposite side of town.
* ''Sid And Nancy'' features the characters leaving San Francisco to go to the San Francisco International Airport (which is south of the city) by going across the San Mateo bridge, which is even further south of the airport and which leads to the other side of the Bay from where the airport is. If you are already in the city you don't cross any bridges to get to the airport.
* Averted in ''[[Ghostbusters]]'' as explained in [[James Rolfe]]'s [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20130817204323/http://cinemassacre.com/2010/04/26/follow-that-marshmallow-a-ghostbusters-tour/ tour of New York following the movie.]
* In the film ''Driving Lessons'', [[Rupert Grint]] and Julie Walters drive to Edinburgh, arriving on a scenic road down a hillside... which is in the centre of the city and can only be reached once you're already in the city. This is after they've driven ''south'' past a recognisable nuclear power station to get there, and following this, you see them going up alleyways and out of entirely different alleyways on the opposite side of the castle. It's a bit disorientating.
* Baltimore tourists are often told that the ''[[Step Up]]'' movies were filmed at the famous Baltimore School for the Arts, probably because the school in the film is based on that. In fact, they were filmed at a local middle school.
