    Ok Im not confident I'll find anything here but I want to try. Back in 2005-2007 I worked at the intersection of Memorial and Dairy Ashford on the west side of town, and for about 2 weeks I noticed there being alot of RVs, large bright lights, and they were located on the premises of the Philips gas station right there on the corner. The RVs were parked down the street that runs beside Chuck E Cheese. I was always curious as to what was happening there for sure I would hear something from the locals but I never did.

    Anyone have a clue or a way I can find out what that was?

    Hmmmm.............I think it may have been "My life" starring Michael Keaton and Nicole Kidman.

    Nope, he's right. The third act in that movie is almost exclusively filmed in Houston.

    Yeah, Houston has the closest flora and fauna to Pandora than any other major city in the country.

    I'm unaware of any movie or TV show being filmed there...but it's possible they'll scatter my ashes at that intersection when I die.

    Showtime was always better than that dumb Chuck E Cheese.
