Has anyone heard mention of a film entiled "Ohio" that is soon to be released? From what I understand it is based on the Kent State Shootings.

Although "A Christmas Story" was based in Indiana, there were several scenes fron Cleveland including Public Square where the parade was held and Higbees Department Store where Santa was.

Also some of the early scenes in "Rainman"..."I'm not wearing any underware" were filmed in Cincinnati.

We have an airport, though it's not a full size commercial airport. It's mainly private jets and small planes. You can also get flying lessons there.

The start of "Wild Hoggs" is based in Cincinnati (though in one shot that's supposed to be of a downtown Cincinnati building they actually show the BP building in Cleveland)

"Guarding Tess" is based in Ohio
Not too mention the constant sight of Ohio plates on their vehicles/motorcycles in the movie 'Wildhogs'..

Also, I believe each of the 3 Spiderman movies had parts filmed in Cleveland. I'm not 100% sure about 1&2, but I know the 3rd one had the Spiderman- Sandman scene where they were fighting in the armored vehicle was filmed in Cleveland...

I believe in the movie Vegas Vacation, in one of the casino scenes, a man is wearing a pin that says something to the effect of:

"I love Massillon Ohio"
