I really have to do a better job of keeping track of what movies are showing

I checked the web site last night and not only was Hot Fuzz still showing, but they were showing Grindhouse at the video theatre!

And today they're both gone. Well, at least they're still showing Mr. Brooks and the video one has a flic called Next based on a Philip K. Dick film and starring Nick Cage. So I'll probably try and catch it tonight.

People don't realize how much movie/video production take place. It's interesting to go to a [state/city] film office and see what stuff was filmed in your area. IIRC, IMDB has the ability to pull up a location and see what was filmed there.

For example, the opening to Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho was filmed in Phoenix, as was Clint Eastwood's The Gauntlet. I can show you where things took place. And the week after I started working for my new employer, a co-worker was in a TV movie about illegal immigration: he was driving a van full of illegals and got stopped by Border Patrol. He got to take some shots at the cops then run across the desert! It's an occasional topic in the office.
