The Other Guys trailer

Check it out: the trailer for The Other Guys, one of the films that shot in downtown Albany last year, is now online:

You can see bits of Albany here and there -- if you look closely and don't blink. A few examples (with matching spectator video) are after the jump.

It looks like a lot of the footage from Albany was used for green screening with the stars. The Rock and Samuel L. Jackson show up in some shots with Albany scenery, but apparently they were never here to film.

The Other Guys is scheduled for release in theaters on August 6.

(Thanks, Justin!)

Comments

How thoughtful of the studios to make use of extensive CG and special effects to ensure their precious, delicate actors never have to actually step foot in dreary, desolate Albany.

Having a child is indeed a second shot or at least a reminder of the magic of childhood. I thought of this yesterday and my 4 year old and myself rode figure 8's and generally raced all around the now empty parking lots of Sage, Albany College of Pharmacy and OPWDD on our BMX bikes. So many childhood 'far away' journeys are actually so close.
