The first, part of which was being filmed Wednesday, is planned as the opening scene for the movie. A light blue Chevy Chevelle is being driven by cop partners played by Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as they chase the SUV with shooters aboard down the street. Columbia Pictures has said the stars will not make appearances; stunt doubles were on the scene. > The second scene to be filmed in Albany will be the climactic chase of the movie. > “Next week we’ll be shooting a Prius trying to run what we call the gauntlet,” Palmisano said. “To save the end of the day at the end of the movie.” > David Suchomel and Jim Carella, employees of Xerox, were standing at the corner of Park Avenue and Broadway for twenty minutes, waiting to see some action. > “It’s incredible how much goes into filming all this,” Suchomel said. “There’s so many people. It’s probably going to just be two minutes in the movie, but it’s taking all day.” > With 40 stunt people and 100 other crew members, Palmisano said the few hours spent on Broadway in the morning would amount to about 15 seconds of the movie. By the time he’s through in Albany, they’ll have about three minutes, he said. > According to Variety magazine, “The Other Guys” is a comedy in which Johnson and Jackson play an elite cop duo that is the envy of the rest of the police force, including partner-cops played by Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg. > The movie is being directed and co-written by Adam McKay, who has worked with Ferrell on hits such as ‘‘Anchorman,’’ ‘‘Talladega Nights,’’ and ‘‘Step Brothers.’’ > Stunts for “Salt” were filmed on the overpasses of Interstate 787.

Its junk. No motor or tranny and the body is rough with new paint. The quarters have holes in them. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/theyre-filming-the-other-guys-right-under-our-windows/247011.md?page=2)
