About the filming at Trinity Cathedral:

http://www.trinitycathedralpgh.org/

BATMAN GOES TO CHURCH – The latest Christopher Nolan-directed Batman movie is currently filming in Pittsburgh. Trinity Cathedral is among the many Pittsburgh locations selected for filming. Specifically, the crew will shoot scenes in our choir room and fellowship hall. None of our worship spaces will be filmed.

The setup, film shoot, and wrap-up will in no way alter our worship schedule or locations–with one exception: the Noon Eucharist on Wednesday, August 10, will be cancelled. Our Sunday schedule of services will be unaffected. However, do note that from Saturday, August 6 through Friday, August 12 we may have to be flexible about access to Oliver Avenue, some rearranged decor, and other surprises we haven’t anticipated yet. Having that said, the director and entire production staff have been most accommodating in their work with the Cathedral so far.

Im happy theyre shooting at the Trinity Cathedral, theres been a Gothic element missing from the Nolan pictures that I hope is utilized from Pittsburgh's architecture. One frustrating aspect though is that the Trinity Cathedral is literally right next to a much more Gothic and intriguing looking church IMO.

I think the film crew will use this as an entrance for the batcave......

Looking at the sub-articles in that link, I had no idea Bill Cowher is slated to be the Gotham coach. This will be fun to see, lol.

My "favorite" part of the T-shirt throwing was when Dante spent like 5 minutes asking for the kids in the crowd and looking for a kid to give a shirt to. Hello? The age limit was 14 and he kept going on and on looking for kids to give shirts too. I wish someone would have just told him there were virtually no kids.

And as far alot of people being there who weren't very Batman knowledgeable I listened to a five minute conversation where people were trying to figure out who's playing Batman in this movie. Oy vey.

Oh and I like how that know email from beinamovie encourages people to share videos and pictures when we weren't even supposed to bring a camera or we'd be kicked out. Hypocrites. Oh well. I still had a nice time.

Which church are you referring to? I think I may have visited it when I was in Pittsburgh over the summer.

First Presbyterian Church on 6th Ave. It's literally right next to the Trinity Cathedral.

Ah, the one I was thinking of was Epiphany http://www.epiphanychurch.net/index_files/image003.jpg

I thought they were downtown wednesday? Does this mean that there will be two crews shooting simultaneously?

Wow, the guy (Chris B.) from Batmannews.com did a terrible job on the radio. The radio guy asked him what the deal was with the camo tumblers and Chris meekly replied, "I don't know." WTF?! Dude had a chance to plug Batman Begins and totally blew it. The camo tumblers are the original batmobiles before Bruce paints them black (remember Batman Begins?). They are military prototype vehicles designed by Wayne R & D department. Bane obviously steals them, with the help of Talia aka Miranda Tate. Come on, Chris B.!!! Get your **** together!!!

Nice to hear you had a great time DK7! I would have killed to be in the stadium shoot, but it's my fault for not signing up quick enough. After it was apparent that we weren't going to get the call back for the shoot, we decided to drive into Pittsburgh anyway and catch part of the filming at CMU on Friday instead.

Drove in from Indiana Friday morning with my wife, cousin and his wife.

Missed the early stuff, including the Selina/bat-pod stunt.

Got to see some more shots for the riot at Gotham City Hall.

Got to see the bat-pod and Tumblers close up. Got really, REALLY close to the Tumblers as they put them away. Well worth the trip itself!!

We got some decent videos and pics, but it's not anything you guys haven't already seen so I'm not rushing to get it uploaded.

Met the professional paparazzi guys. Pretty nice. There were three of them there, competing with each other. They were only there to get a shot of Anne in costume, but WB beat them to it and they weren't that happy about it. LOL When Anne came strolling out in her white dress, they were fighting to get a shot of her. One of them jumped in the other's way and he yelled "You jumped in my f'n shot man. Next time get the eff out of the way." Hahaha... Pretty entertaining.

Met Subaru. (Subaru, I was the guy in the gold Paddy's Pub shirt) Very nice guy! Thanked him for providing the videos and pics for those who couldn't make it. Funny story... Subaru kind of got stuck talking to an older gentleman, who was asking him every-single-question-in-the-book. LOL. My wife laughed and we felt bad for him, but there wasn't much we could do to save him. t:

Missed meeting Batman11, if you're out there bro maybe some other time.

We went to Heinz to check out the scene. Wanted to catch a glimpse of the field, but to no avail.

Overall, great trip and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Hey, yeah it was great to meet you guys! That old guy wouldn't stop, I said goodbye and 10 seconds later he ran up to me again! Lol, but I managed to break away about 10 minutes after you guys left.
