Tools To Identify Your Favorite Movie Location

I am a chronic background watcher when it comes to movies. I love trying to figure out the location where it was filmed, to see if they used the real place, or went with a cheaper alternative. Such as the way Hollywood commonly films in Montreal instead of New York or LA to save on production costs. Or the way the Lord of the Rings filmed in beautiful New Zealand.

Sometimes I manage to catch sight of something that gives it away. I have even seen some places in my hometown that showed it was filmed there. But I don't always get it right, and with CGI and advanced set building and camera work, it can be really difficult to tell the difference these days.

If you are like me and find it hard to resist pinning the place behind the movie down, check out these helpful tools.

UK: Has Your Candidate Said Yes To Ending Extreme Poverty?

"The UK general election is an important milestone on the road to ending extreme poverty. But which of your local candidates are really committed to helping make this happen? Let's find out!"

"ONE.org is asking all candidates to sign the Just Say Yes pledge to ensure that most UK aid goes to those who have the least, that women and girls are put at the heart of international development and that all parts of government work together to build a better and safer world."

The ONE.org team has now launched a nifty online tool that will allow you to check if your candidates have signed the pledge or not. 

Want to know more? Pas de problème, it's all explained in the email I've received earlier which I've copied and pasted (with links and all...) below for your perusal.

Enjoy!

Joshua Bonehill - Moronic Nazi Troll At It Again With Diane Abbott Poster Hoax!

In 'Episode 2',  We saw that, a few weeks ago, convicted serial liar Joshua Bonehill tweeted the picture of an alleged poster from the Labour Party for the coming General Elections... A poster that nobody seemed to have seen (apart, from himself and some of his alts) even so it had, according to him, popped up all over the UK... A poster that, of course, didn't actually exist and was just another one of his hoaxes.

Well, guess what? The pint sized Nazi is now doing it again with a new one (featuring Labour MP, Diane Abbott, this time...), that he claims has been put up in Hackney... 

But, of course, like for the previous 'poster', nobody has been able to to give the exact location of that one either.

A Game-Changer For The Amazon [Petition]

Dear friends,

An ambitious project is underway to create the largest environmental reserve in the world, protecting 135 million hectares of Amazon forest. That’s more than twice the size of France! But it won’t happen unless Brazil, Colombia and Venezuela’s leaders know the public wants it. 

That’s where we come in...

The Origin Of Easter

The origin of Easter does have a couple of different possibilities. First of all Easter is mainly considered to be a pagan holiday. Most of the old religions have different celebrations for different seasons throughout the year. The origin of Easter plays into the celebrations carried out during or around the spring equinox.

Joshua Bonehill - Moronic Troll Back To His Old Tricks With Labour Party Poster Hoax!

British wannabe fuhrer, Joshua Bonehill, has been quite busy lately, sitting in  front of his computer in his lonely bunker flat and using (or should I say abusing?) Twitter for his own personal and political gains by sharing with us news and events that have only happened in the fantasist world that he has created in his deluded mind.

One of his latest stunts was tweeting the picture of an alleged poster from the Labour Party for the coming General Elections... A poster that nobody seems to have seen (apart, of course, from himsef and some of his imaginary supporters) even so it has popped up in various locations (Rotherham, London and Leicester)... apparently. 

I say apparently because it looks like the one supposed to be in Rotherham shows the local Labour candidate from a totally different area posing in front of it, and the one alleged to be in Leicester seems to have a London street sign next to it (from Camden Town, to be precise...). 

And, of course, no pictures of the ones supposed to be in London have been posted.

"A world where an imaginary poster is sighted by imaginary people in locations that don't look like they're supposed to be? OMG, that can only mean one thing!" 

Yes, that means that you have entered "The Bonehill Zone"...
