Pearl Harbor

Here are the last few Pedro moments in Pearl Harbor. In this scene, Japan is played by one of the dissappearing-gun emplacements at Battery Osgood/Farley.
It isn't as ironic as it could be I guess, because although they were (or would have been) used as defense against Japan, they were built back in 1919, considerably before WWII. Osgood/Farley will definitely show up on this blog in the future. Watch for it!























Here's a non-Pedro image for you:
The kid with the hat that says "Joe" on it is my brother-in-law Jake. He did live in Pedro when he was in this movie, so I guess there's a connection there.



I'll end this post with another non-Pedro image:

I don't know about you, but I find this hilarious. This isn't from an outtake, this was in the movie itself! They neglected to insert the sky. Way to go, Michael Bay.

Pearl Harbor

Okay, here's a post, at long last. Pearl Harbor was directed by Michael Bay, which isn't a reccomendation, but a warning. Avoid this movie at all costs. These shots are the first appearance of Pedro in the movie, where it doubles as Hawaii. That's the Warner Grand on 6th St., built in 1931. Enjoy, but stay away from this movie! I'll show you more shots of Pedro from this piece of dreck in my next post which will be soon. I swear.
