question of the day: Is there a place near where you live (or that you’re familiar with) that would make a great movie location?

I’m thinking of a place that hasn’t been on film much or at all, but you know how amazing it is and figure it would look great onscreen… and perhaps capture something of the local flavor of where you live.

What do you think? Is this even newsworthy? Is there any reason for the BBC to have bothered with such small changes?

So totally radical: A little boy gets the message that he’s totally awesome and can even save the world…

And what would you like see to him/her do with TV that he/she isn’t doing with movies?
