As I’ve mentioned, I have been writing a Movie Set Travel Column each week over at Jaunted.com. Here’s a look at the settings and locations for Push, Watchmen, and Sunshine Cleaning.
The best thing about Push is definitely the location. Set and filmed entirely in Hong Kong the gorilla-style film techniques used to capture the authenticity of the city totally pay off. If you find yourself wanting to catch the next flight to Hong Kong after watching the movie (which you will) here’s what to do when you get there.
Watchmen, aka the movie with the giant blue penis, is set in NYC but was primarily filmed on a sound stage in Vancouver with only a few days on location in L.A. and New York. Here’s your guide to Vancouver, Watchmen style.
Sunshine Cleaners stars Amy Adams and Emily Blunt as sisters who start a “biohazard cleaning service”, in other words, they clean up crime scenes and suicides. The movie is set in Albuquerque, NM where it was also filmed. Check out my Sunshine Cleaners guide to Albuquerque, minus the blood and police tape.

Good news for MacGyver fans, looks likethe show is coming back, but not to your TV screen, to the movies. MacGyver is jut one in a long line of TV shows headed to the big screen. Two other cult hits, Arrested Development and Veronica Mars also have movies in the works. And after the success of Sex and the City, a sequel to that film is in the works as well.
For those too young to remember, MacGyver was a 1980s adventure series starring Richard Dean Anderson, (Stargate: Atlantis) as an incredibly resourceful secret agent for the Phoenix Foundation. McGyver could famously escape dangerous situations by engineering everyday items into weapons and tools.
The character is often spoofed on Saturday Night Live in the skit MacGruber, starring Will Forte. MacGruber also tries to make the necessary tools to escape dangerous situations but never seems succeeds.
The studio producing the film is optimistic it will be a hit.
“We think we’re a stick of chewing gum, a paper clip and an A-list writer away from a global franchise,” said New Line’s Richard Brener, who will oversee with Sam Brown and Walter Hamada.
