Is there a movie being shot or something?



How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl, Year after year,
Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here.

They are filming a commercial; I'm pretty sure it's for Walmart.

I walked by last night. One of the crew members told me it was indeed a Wal-Mart commercial. Or of course that could be the standard line to keep gapers like me moving along.

No - actually, it was very pleasant - very quiet I must say too. Just bright lights and a lot of vans/trucks and cars had to park elsewhere, but the people seemed organized and I really didn't see much from my house. I figured they probably wrapped up within a few hours.

A good production company does these commercial shoots with little impact to the area. Set-up times can take hours, but if you have the time, it's pretty cool to see how it's done.

Movies can be a bit more disruptive, but when Larry The Cable Guy was here, this town seemed to be pretty excited about it.

Who was here when they filmed "Lucas"? That had to be pretty cool. I heard they used Candidate and Perplexed as some of the local toughs that roughed up Lucas. Wink
