Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace - Jedi Council Chamber Is in L.A.!
When Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan are talking to the Jedi Council, look out the windows, it's just a picture of L.A. repeated, and the horizon doesn't align from window to window!
But most of phantom menace was filmed in the UK though, including that scene I think.

jedi can't not see into the future...they can only "feel" what will happen...and sometimes they don't get the right feeling either...if they could see into the future...then Qui-Gon wouldn't of died...he felt he could beat darth maul...but he didn't!

Hey I think that is LA! That seems like it should be a joke but it isn't. >.<
Don't worry. Darth Maul felt it, but only for a second =)

And you know what? Lucas is putting Jar Jar into episode II, just because he doesn't want to admit that he made a mistake.

Wait, if Jedi really could see in to the
future, Qui-Gon and Darth Maul would have
seen their demise, so they could have
prevented it, but then they should have
seen themselves being alive when looking into the
future so there was no reason to prevent their
death so... Aw, forget it! This gives me a headache!

First of all just because Jedi have the ability to see into the future doesn't mean they use it all the time. Secondly, Darth Maul is a Sith, not a Jedi.

I thought most of The Phantom Menace was filmed in Tunisia.

Anyone who thinks that Jedi can predict the future with such accuracy that they can prevent their own deaths should pay more attention to Star Wars. Even Yoda once said in 'Empire' the the future is difficult to see because the future is governed by emotion. Also, if you payed attention in Empire, Vader said that the Emperor has forseen that Luke would destroy him. Yet in Jedi, it was Vader who destroyed the Emperor. (I concede that Luke had a role in it, but still....)
Besides, imagine how much of the fun would be removed from these movies if all the Jedi and Sith could predict the future with 100% accuracy. If they could, Anakin would never have been trained and the original trilogy never would have happened.

Yoda says in many of the movies that the future is clouded around stuff. Why should this be any different?

It's not LA because their were blue screens behind each window and the city was made on a computer.
