I hope Bale's role is a bit edgy, I don't want him to get typecast as the brave hero. He's way better than that.

I think the real Purvis shot and killed a few guys in the back so I think he has a bit of an edge to him.
 
Where are we talking film locations? I live in the Chicago Suburbs and can go get some set pics if i know where to go.
 
Wow, both Bale and Depp look truly badass in the film. One of my most anticipated films of 2009. I like that article about Depp saving some extras, too :up:
 
If you live so close i would think you would hear about it.

I'm sorry, are you questioning where I live? Yeah. I have heard about it. I've heard they're in Aurora but there's more than one street in Aurora so I would appreciate it if someone could tell me exactly where they are...
 
The real Purvis was insane! In a good way. Though he shot Dillinger in the back on his own accord and lied to many criminals about letting them live, let's be honest, they probably deserved it.

Go Bale!
 
So are we to assume that Bale's character will have some DARK EDGE to him? I'm kinda tired of Bale playing the subdued roles. :o

No, Im saying you would know better than us where they were shooting.

I knew when/where Scorsese and Affleck were shooting in Boston for Departed and Gone Baby Gone (not all of Afflecks since some of his Boston work was undocumented), and when Indy was Conn. They usually have to publicize that stuff so as to not get in the publics way.
 
This will be released July 1st, 2009...it'll move. Thats a really bad choice.
 
It's a gangster epic with lots of action and 2 big stars in a summer full of CGI fests and comic book/Sci Fi movies, It will be a hit in that position IMO.
 
They were shooting scenes outside my job on Tuesday.

Thats the kinda thinking the studio had with Manns last film, Miami vice, and howd that do?This film belongs in November or December. That said, I would be shocked if this doesnt move to November at some point, especially after American Gangsters success.

Miami Vice had one shoot out and neither star was anywhere near as popular as Bale and especially Depp, Dillinger and 30's gangsters are classic Americana and the film is LOADED with action, totally different to Miami Vice, look how well Collateral did in the Summer ? ppl want some alternatives to the blow em up CGI flicks, that is why Bourne did so well. November is such a cliche' "Lets get t3h oscrarz" thinking.

I think I agree here, it makes a nice alternative in the summer.

Let me be clear, itll make money wherever it goes. Depps a huge star and this will be a post TDK and T4 Bale; hell be hot ****. However the current date is only 5 days after Transformers 2 will open, and thatll be a monster. Where it is, this will total 80-90 million, possibly 100 if its really good; however in winter you looking at 125+.

If they go summer, it needs to be Mid July and early August.

I'm not getting into the numbers b/c you know how i feel about your way of predicting excatidies like that, but ppl look for alternatives and TF2 will have plenty of ppl looking for something different, in November they'd be facing Potter and TF2 is not even guaranteed to make it's date, being near it is classic counter programming.
 
I know and get what they want to do, however Id be shocked if it doesntmove, either to early August or out of summer all together. I just fear theyll dump it in september or october ala 3:10 to Yuma :cmad:

I think this has a much broader appeal than Yuma had, it's at a bigger studio, has a bigger star in Depp and a bigger director in Mann.
