As a side note, Untraceable just began filming here yesterday. (I was one of the extras, playing a Portland cop.) It's going to be filming here for the next several months, so I wonder how well that will represent the area.

That list is pretty wonky (Milwaukee is bigger than Boston or Washington?) since it only includes the population within the narrow city limits, not metro areas including suburbs, etc. Here's a better list:

Indianapolis - A small part of October Sky
Nashville - Altman's Nashville, duh.
Lots of country musician biopics have large chunks set in Nashville.

Louisville, KY: Parts of The Insider and Elizabethtown. And any movie that has a plot line involving the Kentucky Derby with at least one shot of Churchill Downs.
