8 Mile - All The Filming Locations - Then and Now
#8mile #filminglocations #filminglocation #eminem
8 Mile is a 2002 American drama film written by Scott Silver and directed by Curtis Hanson. It stars Eminem in his film debut, alongside Mekhi Phifer, Brittany Murphy, Michael Shannon, Anthony Mackie, and Kim Basinger. The film, which contains autobiographical elements from Eminem's life, follows white rapper B-Rabbit (Eminem) and his attempt to launch a career in hip hop, a genre dominated by Black people. The title is derived from 8 Mile Road, the highway between the predominantly Black city of Detroit and the largely white suburban communities to the north that Marshall originally lived in.
8 Mile was a critical and box office success. It opened at No. 1 in the US with $51.3 million grossed in its opening weekend, and would eventually go on to achieve a total gross of $242.9 million worldwide. The album's accompanying soundtrack was also a commercial success, being certified quadruple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The film garnered numerous award nominations and wins, including an Academy Award for Best Original Song for "Lose Yourself" win for Eminem, Luis Resto and Jeff Bass at the 75th Academy Awards. 8 Mile was named one of the best films of 2002 by several publications.
As the end credits proudly announce, the movie was “Filmed on location in the 313”, the area code for inner urban Detroit, traditionally separated from the posher northern suburbs by the titular 8 Mile Road.

The movie is over 20 years old now and it's still awesome. A classic for sure!
You filmed a place where a legend walks in, be proud of yourself!
I respect you man. I'm from Warren MI and some of the places you go too aren't the best to go to and really far from each other but I'm glad you do! Love the Eminem videos man keep it up!!

Ya haha I always think when I’m filming in Detroit it’ll be quick but sometimes it’s a lot of driving back and forth. I usually stay in Warren actually . I find I can get anywhere from there quite easily (usually .) Do you still live in Detroit/Warren?

Dude let me just say this, they've been others who have tried to tube my neighborhood but to me they all failed until you. You nailed it. I'm from 8 Mile and Mound roads so that's all my stomping grounds. I haven't been there in 25 years so you seen most of it and it looks like to me you totally fit in. Just saying man thank you for this vid

Hey I just want to say that you did a fantastic job with finding a lot of these locations(I’m sure it wasn’t easy tracking them down) it’s been years since I’ve seen the movie. But I remember many of the scenes that you’ve shown here quite well. Great work and I hope to see more of your videos in the future. Have a great day.

The world knows Scott you're a devout Eminem hardcore fan. That's cool, and your seriously righteous research on the '8 Mile' movie will form a big part of your vlog/podcast/live stream legacy. There is real meaning in Eminem's music, probably more like what will be appreciated in the decades to come, as will YOUR videos. God Bless and Stay Canadian.

Good job and greetings from Germany. I was 13 when this flick came out, bought it on DVD and watched it pretty much every day after coming home from school...maybe 100x... I took it so damn serious during that vulnerable period of my life lol. Eminem was on top of the world at that time, in hindsight I'd say he was the modern day Michael Jackson. And 8 Mile marks the pinnacle of his popularity, maybe the even the pinnacle of Hiphop's popularity even though its not really a Hiphop movie in my opinion.

Well... that my friend is a banger of a video. The content on the money😉😉its obvious theres a lot of hard work gone into the making of it. I do like some of MnMs songs, however i have to say that the 8 mile movie was indeed the best movie about a rapper ive seen. Anyway, yet again you made me feel like i was right there with you, i felt like i was going from location to loation. Brilliant as ever😎😉
Thank you Scott!! Love 8 mile!! I love Eminem too!! He’s the best rapper and actor too!! Thank you for taking us to all these great locations!! Your the best!! Take care!! Much love!! Peace!!! ❤️❤️💙💙💜💜💖💖🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

I don’t know how you find all these places! What a great Video Scott
Incredible. im obssesed with eminem. Love this
I really loved the video. 8 Mile was always one of my favitite movies, and seeing the filming locations was so cool. Would be really cool to visit Detroit someday.
WHAT A GEM! Man, that video is still underappreciated, you desirve gold for this achievement, dude! Let me tell you something, I live in the south of Brazil, never been in Detroit - hell, actually I've never been in the United States =/ But, 8 Mile was a big part of my teenage days, you know... And where I lived was a small town, cold places, got some of that sludgy vibe the movie brings us out. Damn, anyway, what I'm trying to say is: this video brings me back so many memories, and I saw the movie so maaaaany times that it's like... Feels like I'm going back home somehow haha that crazy nostalgia mixed with the feeling of "oh, some of those places are still really good and recognizable just as seen in the movie!". Really good to know! You did a great job! Hope someday I visit Detroit and all that places too! Cheers, homie!
I'm not even from US but everytime I see these places I feel a sense of nostalgia, it's fucking sad
Love your videos bro, you initially drew me in with the Brandon Teena documentary, and then I just kept watching them. Keep up the good work !! 8 mile !!! Rob Ross.
Your filming location videos always go above and beyond what I expect. Always find myself thinking “how did he find that?” Great vid & awesome channel, man. Keep it up!!
My dude never disappoints!! Always great content, but sometimes hafta just listen and not watch so I don’t get motion sickness, he moves so damn much 😂
SOO Incredible Scott!!!!💜🙏
Wow another great video!! This was amazing... You are so funny sometimes lol peace and love thanks🙏❤
Now you got me watching 8 mile
Another banger man
He did a really good job on this movie i really love the last scene of the movie when he does the rap bottle
You travel to awesome places love the videos man
I'm going to watch 8mile again after seeing your video
Hey man, anybody can make a video about whatever, but you take your time and take people back to where historical stuff happens and you do it with class and respect. Excellent homage to Proof (RIP). Loved how you just casually drive by the cow head.. Hilarious! As a native Detroiter, I can appreciate someone shining a positive light on my city, but the harsh reality is there are many parts of Detroit run down and decimated. With the movie being as successful as it was and still is, Detroit should have done a better job preserving those landmarks that made the movie an Oscar worthy film. Thanks Scott 👍🏾💯

HK Wilson hey there thank you so much . I certainly do love Detroit, I was just there a couple of weeks ago again and I miss it already. And you’re right, aside from the downtown area, I don’t see much improvement in certain areas and the city needs infrastructure and funding fast. It’s sad to see but I’m still hopeful that Detroit can rise once again. I feel at home every time I’m there and I miss it when I’m not. Once again , thank you for watching and commenting !
Love it great job😱😁🙏👊🏽

Mike G hey sadly I cannot watch that video lol. I had plans to go onto the Veluzat Movie Ranch to make the exact same video, i had been in talks with the owner for the past year. He said I could come when I’m back in Los Angeles in November for the winter and AdamTheWoo got in before me. It was my holy grail. So I’m really disappointed and I’m sure I’ll watch it some day but it’ll just get me angry 😂 lol. Oh well. He’s such a big KZreadr, it’s easier for him to get access to such places and I’m sure he did an amazing job like many of his other videos. But thanks for the tip ! I have some new locations videos I’m filming right now that should be up over the next few days, I hope u like them Mike!

One of the greatest rappers and KZreadr of all time.

Thanks so much man. I just was in Detroit last week and a few places are now gone, torn down. Slowly the city is being rebuilt , kind of more just the downtown area tho. The city has to get the surrounding areas back to its former glory. It’s an uphill climb. Great place tho, Detroit has so much to offer. Thank you again for watching ✌🏿✌🏽
Yeah bro definitely some dope scenes one of my favorite movies of all time and definitely 2002 had some great movies that came out that same year from the Barbershop Friday after next Drumline and of course 8 mile
