Eighties Movie Locations That Really Exist, Movies Beginning with J

This is a list of places that are in movies, but have a real life counterpart. Please try and be as specific as possible in describing where something is and when it appears in a movie. I don't want just city names where filming took place so much as I want landmark type buildings.

Jaws 3-D
This movie was shot entirely on location at the real Sea World in Orlando, Florida. The only thing fictitious, is that in the movie, they made it appear that Sea World actually existed seaside and that the shark got into a man made lagoon connected to the open ocean by a deepwater channel. The lagoon is actually a fresh water lake where the real waterski shows take place even today.
This was shot on Royal Street and Ursuline Street in the French Quarter of New Orleans.
The Cave that they go to was filmed at Papago Mountains near the Phoenix Zoo in Phoenix, AZ.
Coronado High School, Scottsdale Arizona. Also Scottsdale High, but that was later torn down. Also the Prom scenes were filmed at Big Surf in Tempe Arizona.
The Ice Cream Parlor is located on 77th st. & McDowell rd. in Scottsdale, AZ.
Terri & Buddys House was filmed in Arcadia neighborhood south of Cambleback Mountain near the Scottsdale/Phoenix border.
