- The thon’s over now, by the way, and we’re tired as hell. It’s close to 2 AM and we’re gotta get up at 6 AM so I can be at work at a decent hour tomorrow. Before we go, though, here’s a few more VA5 tidbits. Enjoy!
- Randal and Dante will serve as bookends and open and close the movie.
- The budget for the film is estimated at 15 million, the highest budget for a View Askew production so far (Dogma came in around 10 million).
- The majority of the filming will take place in Los Angeles and the surrounding area, with the final week of filming taking place in New Jersey. Extras will be needed and Kevin plans to announce how to be a part of that sometime in January. We’re not sure if extras will be needed on both coasts or just for the California stuff. We’ll keep ya posted.
