Well, I live in Philly and can see the bridge to Jersey from my window. Philly and NJ are only seperated by a lil river, and are literally just a few miles apart, so I don’t think filming in Philly would be such a stretch. The UPenn campus would make for a very nice school setting. It’s better than filming in Camden (bleh!).

Why go to school in Philly??? Lets see – University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University, Temple University, LaSalle University, Saint Joe’s University, Philadelphia University, Villanova…. I could go on for days with the list of world renowned schools located in the city of Philadelphia and it’s surrounding suburbs. It is THE place to go for a quality education

“Its also the most dangerous city in America with the highest murder rate.”

Uh…what? Where do you get your numbers? Philadelphia isn’t even in the top 20 dangerous US cities (it’s 21, to be exact).

obscure reference alert! If you watch the end of ‘Surviving the Game’ with Ice-T and Rutger Hauer, the scene cuts to ‘Seattle’ with a cityscape shot of Philly.

Philly is actually a pretty awesome city, center city has a pretty amazing look to it since it has a mix of old meticulously maintained colonial time buildings alongside towering skyscrapers. It’s pretty unreal when you first visit.The historic part philly, old city has the most British look and feel of any of the u.s. cities. Shooter,national treasure,rocky series there are quite a number of films shot in the city. The city has become a magnet for the arts over the past few years. Transformers is going to look stunning shot amongst a city with the look of philly.
