Many movies take place in and around the San Francisco bay area, this weekend’s The Invisible Man, is one recent example, but few of them actually film all that much, if at all, in the city. We certainly don’t see this sort of action very often. The good news is that the damage was minimal, for a movie that almost certainly has a budget in the $200 million range, paying for two grand in street damage isn’t exactly going to blow up the production. To a certain extent damage like this is probably expected and planned for. It’s not like nobody knew the explosions were going to produce some extreme heat.
