Batman takes over Wall Street

a few months ago Mr. Larsen decided that we should go to the at&t store to buy covers for our phones.

i was pretty reluctant to go because it was a Saturday afternoon and I wanted to clean the apartment.

boy was I glad we went!

as we were walking to the store which is at the east end of Wall Street we happened upon a movie set.

a big one.

it covered all of Wall Street.

everything was blocked off and we had to take an alternate route.

the Mr. saw some production people and started quizzing them on what the filming was.

BATMAN - The Dark Knight Rises!

so cool.

my life-long dream of running into Christian Bale didn't happen, but I did get to see his Batmobile.

that will do for now.

here are some photo's we snapped.

after we left the at&t store, they had finished filming for the day and we were able to walk up Wall Street and it looked like a total war zone. they had replaced the flags across from the NYSE with tattered American flags and covered all of the news stands with propaganda related to the movie. we may or may not have saved some of the fake snow we were traipsing through too.
