I would say Brawn, but i guess that kinda car doesn't suit his personality..or name.

 

[Rocker22]

So damn! They were actually in VA!

 

[The Apatow Crew]

So damn! They were actually in VA!

Yes a missed chance.

 

[Rocker22]

Yeah I'm not to upset though, it was still 30 minutes outside of DC.

 

[Retroman]

My wife went out to the Udvar-Hazy branch of the Smithsonian Air & Space museum today with a friend of hers, and saw filming for "Transformers 2" - which apparently involved a lot of filming of the Blackbird (SR-71) they have out at the museum. There as a model/prop of one of the transformers, and they saw the director (Michael Bay?) and some of the actors.

Also, parking was free (paid for by Dreamworks).

She didn't bring a camera, so no pictures - sorry

Nah - she didn't know that there was any filming going on out there - she and her friend just went to gawk at the airplanes and stuff.

As an aside - she told me that some visitors were actually pissed off, because the filming meant that you couldn't get close to some of the exhibits - like the Blackbird, which is one of the coolest things there (after the Enola Gay, perhaps).

I can understand that - it's nice of the Smithsonian to allow filming there, but they could have let them film AFTER the museum closes at 5:30, instead of inconveniencing all the visitors - especially on a Saturday during the summer.

They are filming at Davis Monthan AFB in Tucson at the Boneyard as well. AMARC to be exact. I also heard there was some filming of road block or whatever the black kodiac truck was called at Sedona AZ as well.

Its the Udvar Hazy part of it and they blocked off half of it for the filming of Transformers 2. Kind of lame.

I could easily see into the set and they even moved everything from one side of the museum to the other. They were using remote controled cars for the robots. Saw Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox and Micheal Bay. Might go back tommorow too see a part of the museum they had blocked off. I also heard a little plot that might be true and does make sense so here's a


SPOILER WARNING.


Heard they were in the museum searching for a hiding autobot which is disguised as the Sr-71 Blackbird they have there. It also sounded like they get attacked at some point because someone yelled "Run Decepticons!". *fixed le sigh*

My iPod's spell check thing hates me ever so much. I really should turn that off but I am quite lazy. I did go back the second day and saw John Turturro. Pretty much everyone's lines there involved yelling "Decepticons!"
