Untraceable-Portland movie
It was an okay movie. But they did do Portland justice. You should have seen the audience react when they panned from looking at the Willamette river (river only) panned up and over Portland looking east including much of the east all the way to Mt. Hood. People pointed.

Paranoid Park. New Gus Van Sant movie - takes place in Portland, under the Burnside Bridge. I've seen the trailer, looks really cool... I think it previews in a week or two.

We're wet and psychotic...no wonder we have such great booze.
|
I give the movie 6 out of 10.
It did do a better job with Portland then The Haunted did. |
The Amazing Race
Portland, and vicinity, looked great on the season finale tonight...Downtown aerial views, Voodoo Donuts, the Pittock Mansion, Bridge of the Gods and the Portland Building got pretty good plugs for future tourists.....

^^^Someone should have told the contestants that you can't hail taxis from the street in portland. Oh well! I guess thats part of the fun. The team that won was smart to go to a hotel for a cab though.

Yea I thought downtown looked really great! You could tell how clean the streets were too (compared to most cities). I thought it was odd that as soon as they were done at Bridge of the Gods there was a whole fleet of Broadway Cab Prius cars waiting for them. I have NEVER seen one of these fabled Prius Cabs downtown.

The copter views of Portland were incredible.
BTW, I hope Dallas ends up getting with Starr! |
Where were Dallas and his mom at the finish line? Maybe they are still in Moscow since he left their passports and money in a cab.. :) Yeah, I thought Portland looked great. You guys notice the construction on the transit mall going on during the filming?

I just read the ArtsBeat section comments of the NY Times. Dallas, and his mom, were indeed in Moscow. Their passports didn't arrive in time for them to make the flight/finale in Portland. BTW, Nick is starring in an off Broadway production of "The Fantasticks". How is that for a little gossip on the forum? :)

Taking the cab route up there is frigging stupid, especially since they kinda just stood out there waiting. |
I was unaware the show was even here.

Yup, was here back in May http://www.oregonlive.com/movies/ind...t_the_sou.html |
Did the local CBS news people promote it at all on the day when the show aired?
|
I watched it on the 'net at my desk during my "lunch". Great 'copter shots of downtown.
