Another really bad one is Gone In Sixty Seconds (the remake) where the
sequence of events doesn't even come close to matching the geographic
locations mentioned,  especially when the driver steals a car at the
International Towers in Long Beach then crosses the Vincent Thomas
Bridge which would have taken him out of Long Beach into San Pedro, but
then he ends up delivering the car at the Port of Long Beach (back on
the LB side of the bridge!).  I suspect this was so they could have yet
another ridiculous scene with someone jumping closed bridge, as if that
stunt hadn't already been overdone.

Ha, ha!  I remember that!  Being born in Long Beach and having
lived in San Pedro (pronounced by those that live there [s&n 'pidro]),
I was mightily confused at how the Vincent Thomas pulled a u-turn.

Incidentally, I'm back, and "moved in".  Don't know how I'd exist
without this ol' internet...
