I doubt they'll make the movie in the town where this event took place, so they won't lose any more money.
I'm sure the town is fighting for them to make the movie there though. A movie in town brings BIG BIG income to the town. Nothing like bringing 300 cast and crew in for a 6 month stay to put some tourism dollars on the table....not to mention the amount of money the film will pay the town for the barricades, etc.......
I think they should make a movie about me and my lost shoe. I lost my shoe the other day and spent an entire hour looking for it. It was in my hand.
