extras

If you applied to be an extra and you don’t go to elk grove high school or hersey high school i wouldn’t even bother submitting an application. I just called casting since they had emailed me asking what high school i went to and they said they were already booked for the movie and they were mostly looking for people just from those high schools that they’re filming at!. =[

This is exciting news that production will be in Chicago. This will bring jobs and help out the local economy — plus we get to see Freddy on occasion. Looking forward to it.

THEATER, TV, DVD & BLU-RAY REVIEWS

  • Near Dark

    CHICAGO – It’s funny the way that the Blu-Ray market has developed in that success of a new title can often bring an old one to the HD format more quickly than it otherwise would get there. In the case of the great “Near Dark,” it’s the success of two films, one that shares a theme (“The Twilight Saga: New Moon”) and one that shares director Kathryn Bigelow (“The Hurt Locker”). Whatever the reason, don’t fail to include arguably the best vampire movie ever made in your collection.

  • Lost

    CHICAGO – The sixth and final season of the J.J. Abrams hit television series “Lost” will premiere with a special all-night event on Tuesday, February 2nd, 2009. The recap special will start at 7pm CST followed by the highly anticipated sixth season two-hour premiere at 8pm CST on ABC.
