LOL, it looks as though Bale's driver is wearing a TDK shirt.
That must have been such an awkward situation.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.
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...
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.
Thats the kinda thinking the studio had with Manns last film, Miami vice, and howd that do?This film belongs in November or December.
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.

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 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![]()
