Short X-Men 3 Filming Report

By Garth Franklin Tuesday October 4th 2005 03:09PM

'Tim S' has dropped in this eyewitness report from filming on the next "X-Men" film in Canada.

"I work at a hotel in downtown Vancouver and they just finished wrapping a stunt scene that they were shooting all day. Pretty wild stuff. Two cranes rigged between our hotel tower and a church across the street.

It was cold and raining but they rigged up a guy (no shirt on) and hoisted him up approximately 25 storeys where he did a headfirst cable fall then swooped over a crowd of extras, crossed a street and up the front of the church. Very cool stuff!

My buddy who's an X-Men nut figures it is the character who has his wing s cut-off by an evil guy and then given new metallic ones? They will digitize the cable and cranes out later."

Thanks again to 'Tim'
