They can also film the Captain Phillips remake there.

Deep Blue cities in America offer up a plethora of opportunities for crime movies, end of the world stories, war torn destroyed cities movies, foreign cities, etc.

Oh man, they outdid themselves on this one. :-)

Well Done Bee!

That will be more dangerous than filming in Mogadishu.

The rules are you can only film in Minnesota if filmed first.

“I got stuck there on a layover once, and I thought I’d landed in Somalia, but it was just Minnesota,” producer Jerry Bruckheimer said.

➡️ “I’ve never been more scared in my entire life. And I’m from Detroit.”

"I got stuck there on a layover once, and I thought I'd landed in Somalia, but it was just Minnesota"

The Bee does it again!!!!

I had a layover some years ago at the Minneapolis/St. Paul airport. As I walked through the (secured?) terminals, post-9/11, there were people sleeping on the floors. Not just sleeping, a couple hundred families lining the walls of the two terminals/concourses I walked through.

Big blankets spread out on the floor. Nursing babies, eating, sleeping, waiting for what?

And chickens. Live chickens in cages. Wire cages that could hold 2-6 chickens each. I guess they were waiting for eggs?

The smell of human feces, baby poop, and urine, and unwashed sweat was only overpowered by chickensh*t.

I swore I would never fly through Minneapolis again, and I haven't. I've been to a lot of sh*thole places in the Middle East and SW Asia, but I'd never seen anything like this in America.

Visiting pre-9/11 Minneapolis was different. Beautiful city, lovely green scenery and water, the Mall of America was a sight to see! Now? I might spend a night there for a million dollars and a personal security detail.

I was shocked when I went to the Maul of America this summer .
First time in 20 years.
I would say 1/3 to 1/4th of the women had the Muslim head coverings .

It could work but they’ll need a good military consultant. Maybe Tim Walz could draw on his heroic deployment to the Middle East to fill in a few details for them...

There are enough Somalis in Minneapolis for extras, so that’s a positive for the filmmaker.

Now that’s funny. Pathetically outrageous in consideration of facts, but classic Bee.

There will be some additional cast members in the remake. Rapid walkthroughs will be preformed by Mr. A-10, while Mr AC-130J looks over the scene.

Never happen, no one has the guts to provide security for the film crews. It’s too dangerous there.
