What are some scenes from the screen that some aspect of UGA are featured? I can think of a few off the top of my head but I know there's got to be more.
-Uga in midnight in the garden of good and evil (never actually seen it but I know that's a popular one)
-Sanford and parts of north campus in Road Trip
-1987 UGA/LSU game in the background of the bar in Cocktail
Any others out there?

If you count Conley's Star Wars stuff, then add it to you list...

A good portion of Trouble With the Curve was shot in Downtown Athens.

It's not particularly good but there's a couple of scenes. There's one long scene that I believe was shot in The Globe (they took out tables and such to make room). Then there's a scene of them walking around Clayton street.
Also, Party Down South (pretty much a trashier version of The Real World) filmed in Athens for this most recent season. I caught a few minutes of it because I was just curious about it and these people are absolute monsters. I would have hated to have to interact with them downtown at all.

Oh also I remember one scene in Ace Ventura towards the end when they're rescuing Marino at the warehouse, when Ace swings that big bucket and hits the bad guys in the face it cuts to a football scene with the announcer talking about Herschel Walker.

I hate to even give voice to this because its a chick flick and I hate the bitch but, Julia Roberts did the woof woof woof woof during the polo match in Pretty Woman.

In Days of Thunder, Harry Hogge switches between a UGA hat and a UF hat in the scene where he's teaching Cole Trickle about the differences between a loose and tight racecar.

In "The Blind Side" there is a scene where Georgia/Georgia Tech basketball is on TV in the background.
Not UGA, but Herschel is shown catching a pass in an episode of Seinfeld where Elaine and her boyfriend go to a Giants game.

Also, the lead singer of Yellowcard is a big UGA fan and for some reason I still don't understand, I was watching the episode of Cribs that he was on...he had a little UGA shrine in his house.

In "Flight" Denzel's character makes a joke about how sore the Gators are that the Dawgs keep beating that arse.
In the new AMC series "Halt and Catch Fire" (set in Dallas in the 80's) one of the characters talks about how cool it would be if SMU could playe Georgia in the Sugar Bowl:

I forgot about that part in Flight. Yea, I liked that movie purely because of that.

Also stars Kyle Chandler (Coach Taylor from Friday Night Lights for you ignorant heathens) who graduated from UGA and is from Loganville.
