Frighteningly Cool Technology
I wanted to make a note of this before I forget about it later. A company known as GeoSim Systems has made a most amazing replica of the city of Philadelphia. It's extrodinairly detailed and almost exactly accurate. A few things I noticed in it are incorrect.
First the streets are NEVER that empty, even at 2 and 3 am. It's kind of disturbing to see that.
Second the view down the parkway, from the images I've seen, old Billy boy doesn't look like he's pissing on the city. It's an essential view of Billy.
Third the Sam Eric theater has NEVER looke that nice. I can't even remember if/when it ever had posters on the marquee. Although I guess one can dream can't they?
I'm still waiting for the other movie to download.
