	While some of Valkyrie was set in Germany, most of the important stuff took part in Poland.

	Vertical Limit is not on Everest - it's on K2...the second tallest mountain.

	If you're talking of the famous 1956 film Anastasia with Yul Brenner, Ingrid Bergman, and Helen Hayes, it takes place in France (Paris, I believe) and Copenhagen, Denmark; no part of the play actually takes place in Russia, though Russia before and during the revolution is talked about. If you're talking about another Anastasia movie, then you should specify a year or accept the correct answers for either movie.

	I would guess that he is referring to the 1997 animated Anastasia - about half of which, however, took place in Paris.

	There's also a Danish film named The Kingdom, directed by Lars von Trier.

	@adamnvillani: Lars von Trier's The Kingdom is actually a tv-series in 8 episodes.

	I heart Heavenly Creatures

	You did a good job thwarting guessers: After I'd answered everything I could, I was trying to get more by guessing China, Japan, and France, among other answers, but to no avail. Good on you.

	Predator was tough, because most of the action was set in a fictional country (Val Verde). Just guessed through Central America to find the 'real' country for it.

	I actually feel bad that I got United Arab Emirates. D=

	@singin185: All of them show the modern country. If Siam were showed, Morocco would have technically been France ("French protectorate of Morocco"), Austria would be Holy Roman Empire, and Peru would be Inca Empire (or Kingdom of Cusco, it's unclear when the movie takes place), among others

	Scott earned the power of self respect! Not with the Gideon thing, but for being mentioned on Sporcle!

	Aww, sad to see The Emperor's New Groove not getting more recognition. That was one of the most creative retellings Disney has done in a while.

	Predator is not primarily set in Guatemala, it is set in Val Verde (which is fictional). The very start of the film IS in Guatemala, but only about 5 minutes worth, then moves to Val Verde.

	Great quiz, really enjoyed it!!

	"Korea" isn't accepted for MAS*H? It was certainly in both the north and the south!

	I would have done better if I hadn't confused Tears of the Sun with Burnt By the Sun (I tried every former Soviet bloc country & couldn't figure out what was wrong). Ditto for The Kingdom and Kingdom of Heaven. I may have to quit sporcling quite so much and get some movies....Naaaaahhhhh.

	Too bad "Congo" wasn't on the list. I know where that movie takes place. :)

	Lars von Trier's "The Kingdom" was originally a TV series but was shown as a film in theaters in the U.S., at least. I suppose you can either consider it a film or not.

	no hotel rawanda......yea that one would be too tough.

	a far off place, well Namibia certainly fits the bill. As for some surprises,

	Great idea for a quiz and interestingly, the USA is not one of the 30 answers.

	@adamnvillani: I tried Denmark for The Kingdom, then the rest of Scandinavia just to be sure. Finally remembered the Peter Berg film on my third go around.

	Thanks for the comments everyone, and thanks to the admins for publishing. I tried to repeat as few countries from the first quiz as possible, but it turns out that there aren't a whole lot of decently well-known movies where the bulk of the plot takes place in a place outside of the U.S. or western Europe. So please accept my apologies if you disagree with the "correct" answer for any of these and I hope you enjoyed the quiz anyway.

	Wow sucked at this, Midnight Express one of my all time favourites, couldn't remember what damn country he was trying to leave, garrrrggh!!!

	I think its kind of sad that only 38% of people knew that Scott Pilgrim was in Canada. LOL.
