As you prepare for summer vacation perhaps you will stumble upon a place that has more significance than just being a mere destination for a family getaway. Well Blockbuster.com and Flickr want to know about it. In fact Blockbuster has launched a virtual road trip tool where you can find locations were well-known movies were filmed near your hometown or summer destination; then you can upload your personal photos from your visit on Flickr. Your vacation site just might have been the same location for a recent action movie or the backdrop for a romantic comedy.
A day trip to Wilmington, NC and you’ll be visiting the locale for A Walk to Remember staring Mandy Moore filmed there in 2002. Kiss the Girls was the 1997 action packed thriller staring Morgan Freeman and Ashley Judd filmed in nearby Durham, NC. James Garner was close by in 2004 when he filmed The Notebook in Seabrook Island, SC and in 2003 Ed Harris and Cuba Gooding, Jr. were in Anderson, SC filming Radio. You’ll find these locations and many more via Blockbuster’s website. There are over 367 movies to choose from.
So what are you waiting for? If you don’t have summer plans here’s a perfect reason to hit the road, even if just for a day, snap some photos, and post them online via Flickr, an easy to use online photo loading tool. While you are there check out movie related travel pictures from others. Plan your movie-related trip today.
