Today's Blind Items - Boom

I recently wrote about a film production crew that is trying to bribe its way through Europe in hopes of blowing up a bridge. The bribes and payouts have been numerous, but the results have been lacking. Returning to the country where they originally wanted to do it, they found a willing partner. They found someone who thought they could get the permits, but they needed to show that it would be the right thing to do to blow it up. Make it something that seemed like a benefit to the town. Enter the demolitions expert who collapsed a section of the bridge. Now, the production team is trying to convince those in charge that blowing it up is the right thing to do and they will give the town money to do it and then the town can build a brand new bridge. More sturdy. Uh huh.

  7. The bridge that collapsed last week in Italy that Indie pointed out.

    Notwithstanding that cracks had been noted ages ago by structural engineers for this bridge. This is fan fiction.

  8. I think this is definitely the bridge that Indie provided a link to a few days ago.

  10. It would be so much cheaper and nearly as effective to use miniature effects to do this. Looks way more realistic than CGI and could easily be done on a stage. I think this blind is BS.

  11. Yeah Blank I tend to agree. Blowing up a bridge would give you one take. That's risky and costly.

  15. I already said this in the first blind, but Italians don't give 2 shits about a 100 year old bridge. They have historical landmarks that are thousands of years old. And they need money, especially now.
    Then somebody agreed and pointed out that they might just be pissed because while a new bridge was being built, they'd have to re-route traffic. This is the only plausible explanation.
