TomnearCentral Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Anyone know what nightclub was used for filming? Well, that was the funny thing for me: They actually filmed those scenes at the nightclub that is really named Caribbean! I wonder if the club owners had to pay for this very good free advertising, as most if not all of the girls shown in the movie actually work(ed) there! ....So I have been told by a reliable source, not that I would ever frequent places like this...

bonobo Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I'm looking forward to Tropic Thunder. .. Funny, funny movie! robert downey jr was great in that movie He was great in Ironman, too. He is quickly becoming a favorite of mine. I have to admit to some stupidity, though. I flew back to Washington DC for a business meeting, and near Chinatown, they had three huge 50-foot posters for Tropic Thunder hanging from a building. Each one was a picture of one of the big stars with their names plastered on the top. So one said "Stiller," one said "Black," and one said "Downey, Jr." I couldn't figure out why the one with "Downey, Jr." was of a black guy, so I actually went online to see if there was some obscure African-American actor who also had a last name of "Downey" and was a Junior.

KozureOkami Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Sorry to say but this was probably the worst movie I've seen all year. Best part was trying to glimpse places I might have been. Anybody seen this film yet?Ive seen the original Thai version and unfortunately found a little to be desired. Ive seen a trailer for the new film with Nicholas Cage and it looks pretty good. Think they were filming in 06 but stopped when the coupt was going was going on, but now its complete and showing in the Uk next month. So anybody seen it or got any views on whether its gonna be any good? Please throw your thoughts into the ring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyadam Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 there was a lot of rumours to that effect. The producers had a plane standing by for him (primarily for insurance reasons) but he didn't leave. There is also a claim by the film's producers that filming only stopped for about 6 hours and that during filming of certain sequences that day, they can claim to have fired the only shots during the coup d'etat. I'll clarify that for you, I added it to IMDB!!!!! It was the armourer who coined the only shot thing (and, yes, I have the t shirt!!) The producers had nothing to do with any claims, but were stopped filming because of the scene we were doing involved a lot of gunfire and it was deemd wise not to carry on!!!!!! Cage jumped on a plane to take his wife and kid to Korea and was back working the next day, as were we all!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anthonyu Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Thought CON AIR was one of his better ones.I enjoyed Bangkok Dangerous right through but the scene in the warehouse near the end could have been a lot shorter and I could happily have sat through a lot more of the nightclub scenes with the stunning coyote dancers and Aom (Panward Hemmannee)>>> Anyone know what nightclub was used for filming? Thought nudity was illegal in movies shown in Thailand? Surprised me to see it in this..they normally fuzz it over. The whole of Bangkok Dangerous (1999) is on Youtube in 11 parts in Thai with English subtitles if you want to watch it>>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUd_31m97Ns They used the Caribbean club in Rachada which I though was strange caus they didn't even change the name of the club for filming. Great place to burn some cash for a night and yes the girls there are that cute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine why! I know some people ended up with complimentary membership too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

junki3korean Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 better then ghost rider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaimai Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 better then ghost rider You ARE joking - chai mai ? Ghost Rider was an excellent movie (imho). Bangkok Dangerous was average at best, stereotyped frequently and slightly patronising with the deaf and dumb chemist (Boots assistant). Although I did enjoy the action scenes in Thailand.
