Spooner's Digs

There are always things I keep forgetting to do. One has been to include a photo captured from the I, Robot DVD. Back on October 23, 2003, I blogged that Will Smith was in New Westminster that summer while shooting the film.

The first section of the movie which shows where the detective lived, was filmed on Front Street under the New Westminster Parkade. The movie wizards can seamlessly splice together CGI and actual footage. The pan down from Chicago 2035 melts right into the street where Will Smith is walking. It is only a block away from this apartment but, unfortunately, the props are long gone.
