I'm going with JFK because of the old uptown scenery and being able to point out a few places that I often frequent.

What do you have?

if anyone says 12 Rounds,

I have a book idea which will have some major parts in NOLA, especially the Metairie Cemetery.

Is this something you want to write or is already written?

In the process.

I have way to many projects going on simultaneously.

They tried to years ago and wanted John Candy to play Ignatious, but Tooles mother owns the rights and will not let them do a movie

I hope they do soon. I saw a play where Spudd McConnal stared in it at Loyola some years back

Panic in the Streets deserves a mention. I love seeing the old downtown and riverfront.
I wasn't crazy about Benjamin Button, but no movie has ever made New Orleans look as beautiful as it did.
I may be alone on this board, but I really liked Bad Lieutenant, New Orleans.
