Having grown up in Washington DC, and even driving a taxi there a while, I am fairly familiar with the streets. I enjoy watching movies set there for mistakes. Such things as turning from Constitution Ave onto Independence ave. They are parallel. I have some familiarity with Chicago streets. It does make a movie seem more comfortable.
They are filming a new Superman versus Batman movie, with Ben Affleck. Part of it was just filmed here locally. Part of East Lansing was shut down around the Broad art museum on campus for the work.
The museum is a big deal here. I think it is hideous. But visually it is something, I imagine the movie folks creamed over it. To me it looks like a pole barn that blew down. it is real avante garde now, but give them a year to get sick of it. So along with the scenery they built around it, look for that in a movie soon.
