A few more.

Monument Valley - take your choice of films: Easy Rider, The Searchers, Windtalkers to name three. And a few miles north of MV is Forrest Gump Point, where Forrest ended his run with the words "I'm really tired, I think I'll go home now".

On the same trip I saw the diner where they filmed the scene where Forrest Gump came up with the smiley face design, and the street in Flagstaff where he came up with 'Shit happens'.

And nearby is the amazing Winslow Meteor Crater, where they filmed the final scene in Starman.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

I went to the park where the gang meeting at the beginning of The Warriors took place - it’s not in the Bronx as described in the film, but on upper west in Manhattan.

Also been to the Griffith observatory high up in the Hollywood Hills used in a few films such as James Dean’s Rebels Without A Cause and Charlie’s Angels.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Also , a stones throw from City’s ground right next to the Holt Town tram stop is an obscure set of steps that was used in this scene in A Taste Of Honey

Skopelos..Mama Mia

That reminds me;
I had a job labouring in Mykonos on the quiet side of the Island. Nowt there but a few houses on the hillside and a very inviting beach bar which, one day i could resist no longer. I downed tools, walked down the hill, over the road, into the sea then into the little bar. It was the one featured in Shirley Valentine.
