RENT Film — Page 3

People want to know where it is. There's stuff that can be said, and stuff that can't. I can't say to you "this is where it's going to be on Monday and this is where it's going to be on Tuesday, so please do go take all liberties and stalk the set," but there are certain things that are general enough to be known, with a lot of discretion. If I do post any information, for my own sentiment of sanity, I'm going to include that I can't say more than what's been said, because I'm tired of people asking me for more details then I've provided, when I just can't. I don't want to be bombarded by PM's. That said, before false information flies everywhere about what's being done on the movie, might as well fix what you can of it, because you know that once something sounds like it might be true, it's going to be all over the internet. That's more than just a minor pain the ass, because everything and its mother pops up on IMDb as the absolute truth. It's absurd, and a total waste.

I know there are many people who have a lot invested in this movie and care a lot about how things are going on it. I'm not posting this information to make people jealous or to be like "hey, look at me, look what I know." I care about this as much as a lot of the people in this discussion, and that's why I'm saying what I can. I really hope that all makes sense.

Evelyn, check your PM's.

Trust me, if you live in the city, seeing filming going on is almost a daily occurrence and no big deal. Even if you did know the locations (which many people already do, I know several who will be there working), unless you're scheduled to be on set, you won't get close enough to see much. And even if you could see everything going on, it's incredibly boring.

* if you are somehow involved in one way or another with the production*

She's not involved with the production. She has some person taking her to the set so she can meet Adam Pascal.

The signage has been up for a while. It's not "counter-active". Trust me, most people have no clue what Rent is, let alone any desire to be in the area when filming takes place.

I was just wondering off hand...because quite frankly I don't have time to well go around like a crazy loon up and about the east village...but I am there volunteering every saturday so it's all good. I saw spiderman being filmed outside of my friend's apartment...and there are always music videos here and there. Though I did basically spend a tad too much time at a filming of a Britney Spears music video...though I did have a motive...a very hot birthday present for a friend. Heh...though I did manage to get a crew guy to give me one of those passes and lanyarns to let me hang around the premises...and someone else told me where else they were going. Did I go...noooooo. And it was only 5 blocks away 3 hours later. Well it's all for hecks...and there's always paparazi around.

Though I do know off hand things do leak...I did see accurate info (I do so assume it was...cause I read it somewhere..and them bam there was pictures in the paper the following week w/ a matching date.) for when they filmed 13 Going on 30 with Jennifer Garner. Being the totally annoying nice of person I am on the phone I did get Jen's autograph in the end. The only big screen actress I ever did like, from someone who hooked be up at the production company.

And yes, people do invest quite alot into it...since I did get the information from some autograph collector that was somehow convinced I wasn't a complete psycho. But I'll sure as heck be damned if I'm like 4 blocks away from the set and somehow just miss it because I decided to take the 6 train home instead of the N.

Well I have to say I did give the crew (or this one guy) in particular a problem during the Britney video because I resorted to standing on the sidewalk infront of my building to see whatever I could get to see...haha...he did have a kick out of it. But you never know...strange people out there.

But would someone perhaps like to tell me who is running the NYC shoot, is it a smaller production company or the same one?

Though I lovely email I got from the guy who gave me the info to 1330...did specifically tell me not to tell anyone else. Cause well quite frankly if everyobe under the sun knew, there would be problems.

For the most part filming doesn't make me giddy unless it's something I actually care for.

FYI...you don't have to actually be involved to be in the know.

And that topic was? Cuts?

And you want to get back to it, fine. Your question was answered. There are tons of threads on the film in general.

---

Right back at you. You asked a question and you got your answer. What more do you want? You can't have posted about this movie and expected it not to turn out with tension.

---

Honey, you'll know when I'm b*tching.

Don't ask if you're not going to be satisfied with the answer, or who gives it to you, or the way it's given or whatever the hell's gotten your panties all twisted about. Who's one who starts a thread about said topic to judge the others who are engaged in conversation about it? I love hypocrites. Really, I do.

And I close with returning your gesture.
Waste of my time.

Oh, snap. That is quite the retort now, isn't it? I thought you were leaving. Something about V-8?

You can not talk about bootlegs on this board. If you want to discuss them, do it privately - it's illegal, and really shouldn't be discussed on a publically viewable forum.

Most of the major songs are in. Off the top of my head, I know Contact is probably out, but it's things like "You'll See" and other "sung dialogue" that are going to be spoken, unrhyming now. Not all of them, though - I think "Happy New Year" might still be in, as well as a few others.... or something like that, but an entirely sung through movie would probably bore people. I'd hope that the music written for them in the show will play in the background or something, because it's all very good material.

QtKt, is that you in the icon? If so, you are VERY handsome. (don't be jealous Marquise; I still think you're very handsome too)
