NYC Proper.



Go see the re-make of the Taking of Pelham 123. The original was great but the re-make was pretty official: great writing, great casting and it's actually shot on location in NYC not Vancouver or in Photoshop. It's actually amazing how they actually filmed huge scenes right outside Grand Central and the Staten Island Ferry.

I hate studio shows like CSI-NY or NY movies where they hop in a cab in Uptown West Side Manhattan and yell, "take me downtown as fast as you can!" and the cut scenes are driving through downtown DUMBO Brooklyn or heading North on Second Avenue. That shit is so fucking gay. Anyways, go see the movie with some popcorn. Better than the shitty trailers lead you to believe.
