Oh, yeah. I read about them in the Oregonian, they're in charge of Coraline. I'm so stoked they're making it entirely stop motion.
I can tell you the WORST movie ever filmed in Oregon: Body of Evidence Madonna. A very, very dirty Madonna.
Most of Bongwater and The Hunted are pretty good films... The Shining is one of the greatest movies ever.
Baker City I remember driving thru Baker on a trip with my parents and having breakfast at the Baker Hotel when they were filiming the movie. One of the actors was drunk and giving the waitress shit about his food....he'd sent the order back to the kitchen a number of times.
Two B movies filmed in Portland that I've always liked. B movies get it? Brain Smasher...A Love Story (Andrew Dice Clay and Terri Hatcher) Breaking In (Burt Reynolds and Casey Siemaszko)
One of the more controversial movies was made in Portland (at Wilson High): The HS shooting in Red Lake, Minnesota, the gunman watched this movie over and over. Pretty eerie.
I thought that was shot at Wittaker Middle School the old Adams high school on NE 42nd and Killingsworth.
Wasn't Thumbsucker also filmed in Oregon? I loved the scene where Vince Vaughn buys the debate team beer, ad Keanu Reeves is actually watchable.
