for the last couple of weeks they've been filming the new captain america film around the back streets of manchester
apparently 1940s brooklyn was too hard/expensive to recreate elsewhere, so they're using manchester's abundance of dark, satanic mills and adding on false store fronts

Apparently a lot of it takes place during World War II, so the right attitude is probably one of suspicious optimism.

Next question.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

on the way back from lunch today i walked past a fenced off area where they were storing props
