    Hearing people say that about that movie means a lot because that was one of the most frustrating and difficult jobs anyone in the Philly film business has done in the last decade. Freezing everyday, long hours, unnecessary stress every minute...I'm glad fans seemed to like the finished project.

    Also, those are my jeans Gerard Butler is wearing when he gets arrested at his place. I literally took them off and gave them to him because the director liked them. Those are also my hands passing his food through the X-ray machine in prison. Silly trivia for you.

    Definitely one of my favorite movies. You guys did a great job with it! I think I'll have to re-watch the movie and look for the pants and hands lol.

    When I first started, I did mostly blockbusters. The Lovely Bones, Transformers 2, Limitless, Law Abiding Citizen, etc. Now I do mostly smaller movies because they actually pay better (my department only), and I have a better position. I do sometimes help out on Blockbusters when they are the only thing in town. I worked on Dead Man Down and Silver Linings Playbook recently. Also, just about every M. Night Shyamalan movie. Say what you want about his recent work, but he is a fantastic director to work for. His jobs are awesome.

    Law abiding citizen is one of my favorite movies. It was brilliantly done.

    Just watched "killing them softly". I was actually kind of disapointed, the story line was too predictable, although the dialogue was very good.

    Has anyone Heard of The Purge, I think this looks very interesting.

    Of course the movie was predictable, it's based on a book and plus they basically tell you what's going to happen at the beginning.

    Yep. I have the "Ultimate Trilogy" on Blu-Ray, and there was behind the scenes stuff on my dvd copies also.

    If I remember correctly they said on the extras that the city part was basically added to make the movie a bit longer. I thought that was sort of an odd reason.

    True dat.

    I kinda like the second one although most didn't. Still had some wonder and memorable moments, nothing compared to the first though.

    I also like the second one. I thought it was kinda neat with the dinosaurs in the city at 1 point. Have you seen the behind the scenes extras for the second one?

    Watched Chernobyl Diaries and Million Dollar Baby today. Chernobyl Diaries was mildly entertaining but wasn't very good overall but I didn't expect much going in so I was actually pleasantly surprised. Million Dollar Baby was great as usual.
