What happened
Movie Scene Map is a free interactive map of 15,565 real filming locations across 166 countries, covering 9,287 films/series, 2,153 video games, 407 anime, and 365 manga. The author shares detailed SEO observations: generic queries like 'where was X filmed' now trigger AI Overviews citing Reddit and IMDb, pushing their film pages to positions 8-11 with only 0.2% CTR, while 'filming locations map' has no AI Overview because a map can't be summarized into a sentence.
Why it matters
If you build content-driven sites, the SEO strategy here is concrete: visual/interactive content that can't be reduced to a text summary avoids Google's AI Overview cannibalization entirely, while text-answer queries are losing clicks fast (0.2% CTR at position 8-11). Consider whether your product's value is summarizable by an LLM — if it is, you're competing with Google's own AI; if it isn't, you have a moat.
Discussion angle
How AI Overviews are reshaping SEO for builders: which query types are now dead vs. still defensible, and whether interactive/visual tools are a better long-term play than text content sites.
