yea, they’ll film a lot of movies in Pittsburgh, but will either 1. Say it takes place somewhere else or 1. Show scenes of places that are said to be in Pittsburgh, but are actually shot somewhere in New York or San Francisco or something ---

Mothman Prophecies had like a week worth of shooting in Pittsburgh. The rest was all in Kittanning. Fucking assholes had our only bridge closed for a month and a half to do that final scene. The completly redid half the towns store fronts, and they ordered food from us all the time. I made and delivered a calzone for Richard Gere. And before I made it, I scratched my balls really good and didnt wash my hands, so Richard Gere has tasted my ballsweat. 🆒 ---

I was in high school when Bill Murray was shooting Kingpin. That year at the World Series, a USA Today reporter asked him what team he was cheering for (as he sat next to Ted Turner). His response: “I’m pulling for Mars.” The comedic genius was sporting his Mars High Baseball cap. ---

my next door neighbor was in Diabolique also. He was an extra and was in the final cuts during a lunch room scene. They paid him pretty well to sit there and eat. He has a pic with sharon stone also where she is licking another kids ear. Too bad the movie sucked. I was also an extra in Sudden Death but no where to be seen. Since they couldn’t fill mellon area with extras we kept having to move from side to side depending on which way they had the cameras aimed. The entire upper portions were filled with fake wooden cut outs too. My dad tried to take ones for me and my sister but they wouldn’t let him. bummer.
