The adventures of J smith, action biography, starting in London.
rom-com in manhatten NY
Cops 'n' robbers in Los Angeles. It's been done, yes, but so much scope for adding to the body of work.
Detroit
It would probably be a Comedy and maybe New York, since I've never been.
Norwich in the UK - it's just so funny here
I will love to shoot there in Switzerland,a Romantic song...;)
Action packed in Las Vegas!
I just had one of those really silly ideas............Cut short.......... When a group of young film makers from Norwich win an on-line contest to make a crime & action movie in the US it seems as though everything they ever dreamed of is about to happen. From the press photos in a London bank to the first class tickets to Detroit, New York and Las Vegas they couldn't be happier. Until they realise the contest organisers are a bunch of world class crooks from Rio with drug cartel connections ,who are framing them for actual robberies. Chased by the police, the gang and the press they panic and make a run for it, with a pallet of "not so prop" money and load of diamonds. Hijacking John Travolta and his private jet on its way to Oslo in Norway, Zurich Switzerland and then Cannes,"one way or another we're going to jail, so what the hell, lets make the damned movie any way".
Oh did I mention the rather sexy Interpol agent and the George Cloony and John Travolta in flight dating advice session on how to sweet talk the woman trying to arrest you.
Boston area has the highest talent with the least drawbacks. Casting by [www.bostoncasting.com][1] excells above all others!!! [1]: http://www.bostoncasting.com
The city, along with all its outlying districts, Metro West and North Shore. Incomparable!
italy what it really means 2be looked over by the rich
I would shoot a film in San Luis Potosi
I can barely even think of one city, but I'd love to do St. Petersburg in Russia
Arkhangelsk Russia would make a great city for a cold, wintry survival movie. Icebreakers are needed to keep the port open in winter. I could imagine being trapped there.
How about Odessa, Ukraine. It would make a great city for a spy thriller because of their Soviet history.
A sexy rom com, drama or action, thriller, Rio de Janeiro's natural beauty and exotic settings trumps most cities I've seen around the world.
a horror movie set in New Orleans.
a documentary about Mayans, set in Mexico and Guatemala
A period piece in New Orleans - there's a lot more to that city than Anne Rice :)
I would have to say something comical & uplifting:)
I would want to film a sci/fi/fantasy archaeological love story adventure through time in Machu Picchu.
What? Jurassik Park wasn't good enough??
...but then, Machu Picchu, hm-m-m!
How many films have been done in New York? Come on guys, thats pretty boring! I'd love to shoot one in Bratislava.
Or Dubrovnik would be cool!
Why? Because Albert Einstein stayed at the hotel Zöldfa?... (intriguing, n'est-ce pas?)
Dubrovnik, very comfortable feeling,...
Manila. Shooting is More Fun in the Philippines. That's where the Bourne film is filming now...actually, they just moved to Palawan, still in the Philippines
Concerning "smart witty humor", I really loved the way Cary Grant's humor permeated many of his movies!
It's on the script, but if I could choose I'd shoot in L.A.
Richard, have you read "Imperial Bedrooms" by Bret Easton Ellis? He challenges the massive hypocrisy and twisted narrative of Hollywood's jaded values. He shows us a story that could never be filmed in LA. Only a European or Latin location could deal with a Lolita story in its proper context, I will look forward to hearing more about your project.
In a youth centric city like LA they have child actors pretending to be younger than they actually are. :) Look forward to hearing about your work.
I'd like to shoot a Science Fiction Horror feature film in Houston.
Hey EC.. I'd like to shoot your Science Fiction Horror in Singapore in the middle of the central business district.. I think that will be a sight.. not to mention a huge challenge.. :)
thriller in bombay
Horror in Louisiana
Int'l espionage in Ohrid, Macedonia
Satirical End of the World romance, Chicago, IL
india, because the colours are so beautiful. new york, because i find it perhaps the most interesting city i've been to.
South Pacific, untouched land with many untold stories of the mythical past
A Horror Thriller action feature with a Science Fiction setting. Think Lovecraft-style Law & Order meet Wanted and it all goes totally Cloverfield!
St. Petersburg, Russia.
now thats an interesting jump from Norwich to Medicine Hat (in the summer I presume)

I have several things set right here in Toronto. Which would be a nice change because Toronto is always being used as some American city. In these stories it would be itself. I write fantasy sci fi.
hehehe blowing American minds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFgPX0hnNfA
Atta boy, Rick!!
