God bless Jerry Bruckheimer

Yes, Jerry Bruckheimer. He's producing a movie that was scheduled to be filmed in New Orleans before the hurricane. He looked at other locations after the hurricane, but decided he still wanted New Orleans. They incorporated the hurricane aftermath into the script, and begin filming today. It might be an expensive piece of Hollywood hackery, but it's a great thing for the city.

In other movie news, the Canal Place cinema is finally going to reopen this weekend.
