We recently rolled out a new feature on our blogs called Location Matters. In this series, James Greene, Jr. “reflects upon pieces of Orlando Central Florida immortalized in popular film.” In honor of both the 2014 Florida Film Festival and this fantastic series, we decided to put together a gallery of movies that were filmed in Orlando and Central Florida. Kennedy Space Center, by the way, is an extremely popular Florida filming spot.
