Ahem! Re-read the thread young'un!!

hell yes to whoever said Lone Star. Really good movie.

Also, Cloak and Dagger ftw!

Fandango was the first thing that popped into my mind

Star Wars 1,2,3,4,5,6

Mainly in Lubbock.

Death Proof

It was set in Austin, but I think it was filmed mostly in Georgia.

Half that movie was filmed in Austin, at Guero's and the Texas Chili Parlor.

I havent seen the movie, but Guero's Tamales smothered in Queso are some of the best I've had.

Cloak and Dagger

Good Call!!!!

and Friday Night Lights gets my vote.

Necessary Roughness

A Perfect World.

I think that's Costner's best movie. Or was until Mr. Brooks.

peewee's big adventure

Ghostbusters...that was set in Texas, right? Because I distinctly remember the line

"There is no College Station, only Zuul..."

Robocop was SHOT in Dallas, but was SET in Detroit.

Robocop was shot in Houston. HTH Representin' 713.

Office Space was the greatest, but I'm surprised nobody mentioned:
"We've Never Been Licked"

The Searchers

The Legend of Billie Jean.

Staring Helen and Christian Slater and Yeardly Smith, better known as Lisa Simpson.

Talk about horrible accents in a movie.

Nope, a lot of Robocop was shot in Dallas, not Houston.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robocop

"Filming began during the summer of 1986 and lasted from August 6 until mid-October. Many of the urban settings of the movie were filmed in downtown Dallas, Texas due to the futuristic appearances of the buildings. The front of Dallas City Hall was used as the exterior for the fictional OCP Headquarters, combined with extensive matte painting to make the building appear taller."
