Usually you don't really notice the filming going on but you can't mess with rush hour traffic. I don't know how beneficial to the economy movies actually are after all the tax abatements and incentives.bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122361539939744451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28337090.post-89007971753234971752014-04-26T09:40:23.412-07:002014-04-26T09:40:23.412-07:00there's a lot to be said for watching at home....there's a lot to be said for watching at home. there were only about 4 little clutches of people in the theater when we saw this. my husband is a big comic book fan since his childhood, so he's always hopeful they'll treat the characters with some respect. the captain america character is being treated respectfully here.<br /><br />tolkien, on the other hand, is getting the longer-is-better treatment. sad.Divers and Sundryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01759655568104782267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28337090.post-44730252443143359872014-04-26T09:26:03.843-07:002014-04-26T09:26:03.843-07:00"Paranoia about Nazis is just getting tiresom..."Paranoia about Nazis is just getting tiresome for me if I don't also get zombies" - LOL! That´s the funniest thing all week! <br /><br />I couldn´t get the husband near this, I´m afraid. Anything super-power, anything sword&sandal I have to go alone or wait for it to get to television. He was a good sport about the first Tolkien-adaptations, but the third one seemed to never end, even for me, and that was it for him. Forever.
