    I always wondered that too
    Apparently it was
    "the Food Court at the Yonge & Bloor Center (located in the basement/Yonge and Bloor Subway enterance of the shopping complex) just across the street from Yorkville. "

    must have been refurbished surely?

      Hi, I don't know where you got the information about the mall but it is incorrect. The opening mall scene was shot at 20-20 University which is all part of the underground section linked to the McGill Metro station in Montreal. At one point you clearly see the 20-20 sign. Some of the stores have French names only (La Crmire, for instance). I live in Montreal and know the mall well (or at least, knew it well in the early 1980s, the time this film was shot).

          Are there any pictures of what the place looks like nowadays? I sure hope they've kept the ambiance!

            I know for a fact it's in
            Montreal
            as I have a photo from when the wife & I were there in 1977.
            It's a very pretty MALL and we got a big kick when we saw it in the film.
            Here it is

              Used to go there all the time when I was a kid. Reminded me of something out of a Clockwork Orange. Sadly it's no longer there.

                  What is there now? Have they renovated the place?
                  Shame if it is gone, I liked the ambiance from the film. Really felt retro, like a place I would like to visit.

                    Remember the horrible dubbing of the women at the food court commenting on Cameron? I think they were speaking French, but English soundtrack over it

                        The film wasn't shot in the early 80's. It was shot in 1979. I'm pretty sure it's the Eaton's Center food court btw.
