Help me Vancouverites!

Do you remember certain locations used in movies? Can you supply me a few of them?


Example- The Vancouver Art gallery was used in Scooby Doo, and the L word.
The HMV building was used in the Fantastic Four.
St Andrews and Wellsley is in X Men 3.

Thanks in advance, you'll be helping my marketing class project.

i should also mention that ecks vs. sever actually didn't try to re-dress or disguise the city at all. they decided that vancouver was an intriguing character and so used instead of trying to pretend like it was somewhere else they turned it into a story that took place in vancouver. all the locations were chosen because they were recognizable as vancouver landmarks (ie. the VPL downtown)

oh yea and the train station @ main and terminal shows up in everything! (ie. taken, 5 days to midnight, x-files, the butterfly effect)
