This thread really never stood a chance, I saw the preview, that was it. Don't really have anything else to say about it, just made me sad for my friend steve dave in Nebraska, that's all.
up in the air has an Omaha beginning and SF ending. Great combo IMO

Great combo IMOthey shot at the Omaha airport for a bunch of days and everyone was losing their crap around town. when the above referenced About Schmidt was being shot Jack Nicholson lived in a rental house right behind my office. this was well before I graduated from college so I was not here but I was assured that everyone was losing their crap for that as well. I'm told the local tv news had the daily "where's Jack?" segment where people submitted pictures or something of him seen around town. would have enjoyed that I think.

People were so happy but then the movie isn't make SF look perfect they were super pissed at him. Pretty adorable.
Much of the film was shot in and around the Omaha area including Dundee, Elkhorn, Bellevue, Carter Lake, and Papillion. Other scenes were filmed in New York (including the college scene, which was actually filmed at Adelphi University on Long Island) and Washington D.C. Production shut down for about a month when a freak fall snowstorm hit Omaha in October 1997, knocking down trees and power lines.[citation needed]Omaha locations used during production include:Papillion La Vista Senior High School serves as the setting for George Washington Carver High School. Payne had initially aimed to use Millard North High School in Omaha, but the School Board found the script obscene and inappropriate.[5] The setting was then moved to Papillion-La Vista High School and filming took place during the 1997-98 school year.The Godfather's Pizza where Dave visits with Tracy is located at 7920 S. 84th St. in LaVista.The parking lot where Jim throws away Tracy's nomination signatures in a dumpster was filmed on the corner of N. 50th St. and Underwood Ave. The Carl S. Baum Druggists building in the scene is currently a Subway restaurant.Linda's house is located at 683 Parkwood Ln.The Metzler house is located on S. 187 Cir. along the Shadow Ridge Country Club south of Elkhorn.Younkers is located in the Westroads Mall.The soccer field at Brownell-Talbot School was used for the Immaculate Heart soccer game.The American Family Inn (also credited as Rodeway Inn) is located at 1110 Fort Crook Road in Bellevue.

I live in the town with the outlet mall which Jack was spotted at filming a scene that never got used. Before they sold the winning powerball ticket the other day, that was probably the biggest thing to happen to Gretna.
