Sweet! Can't wait to watch Star Wars on the Death Star!
Netflix Rolling Roadshow
Famous movies in famous places.
Imagine watching "Jaws" from a raft in the ocean just off the Martha's Vineyard beach where it was filmed . . . or watching "Escape from Alcatraz" in the cell block where Frank Morris, played by Clint Eastwood, was locked up.
This August, the Netflix Rolling Roadshow celebrates classic American movies by screening them at the locations they made famous. Each screening is an interactive special event (think scavenger hunts, road rallies, a high school prom, even spending the night on Alcatraz Island). Some screenings will also include cast reunions and question-and-answer sessions with the filmmakers.

That's a great idea! But I'm going to have to wait for My Own Private Idaho or The Hunted in Portland, OR.
one question?
will they do fargo in fargo? cuz none of it was shot in fargo. and only one bar scene was set in fargo. the only real connection to fargo that it has is that the stolen cars came from fargo. most of the movie is in the twin cities.

I'm willing to bet the people who live in those residential areas have seen enough of those films.
Coming soon: screenings of every TV show in the last 10 years, in Vancouver.
