The movie is about an advertising executive whose life turns upside down after he misses his train to work. <br /> <br />Owen, who recently starred in King Arthur, will be in town when a prison sequence is filmed, said Joe Amari, senior location scout for the Illinois Film Office. <br /> <br />It is unlikely Aniston -- of TV's Friends -- will be in Joliet, Amari said.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8003805-109421918276075492?l=friends-dvd.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Andyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02338976076434733412noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003805.post-1094212489741996222004-09-03T04:53:00.000-07:002004-09-03T04:54:49.740-07:00For over a year I've been enjoying a fun DVD-based board game called "Scene It?", which I suspect many of you who are reading this have played, heard of, or seen in stores.

The box-set, which includes all the show's ten series in entirety, was planned for release at Christmas until a production worker raised the issue with a supervisor. The intent was to have each DVD in the set labelled with a small part of the friends logo, so that when put together they spell out the show title. Managers soon discovered that the spine of the box actually says “Friend”, the last letter clearly missing. <a href="http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s4i6245">http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s4i6245</a> <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8003805-109291891335238115?l=friends-dvd.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Andyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02338976076434733412noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003805.post-1092918866616294632004-08-19T05:33:00.000-07:002004-08-19T05:34:26.616-07:00"Family Guy""Simpsons" boxed sets?
