It makes it very relatable and interesting when you do that. You always show how much the filming locations mean to you! Then watching you and Adam together is extra fun.

    I worked in a building like on the same block as the MIB headquarters for over 20 years. It’s a beautiful building but pretty small. It’s on the same block as the oldest public park in the country as well as the bank that financed the Titanic. It’s a Citibank now I believe. Broadway was originally a trading route established by the Lenape and Munsee Indians and is still the Broadway we know and love today.

    Great vid. At 21:38 kind of interesting that the tree trunk on the left with the overhanging branch is so much thinner than now. I've always wondered how the movie makers can film in a busy city like this. I guess they rope off areas and have specific traffic appear in scenes. It's got to be a complicated situation.

    OK, now I know why Adam did not bring up the disk from the New York Pavilion being in MIB, he was saving that for Jay. It kind of irked me watching his video and having him not bring up the MIB tie in. BTW Jay, during the scene at Shea Stadium, that was an actual Met (Bernard Gilkey) not an actor who has the fly ball bounce off his head as he is distracted by the bug's space ship.

    I used to work in that building just to let you know there is no elevator in the building and when you walk in you only see stairs a small stairs going up and and stairs going down. Yes that is the original doors actually I was there when they kind of repainted it to make it look different and the plaque you see on the right hand side that says Brooklyn battery tunnel is actually made out of plastic not metal My old boss actually has it in his office. The MTA put a gate around the facility because after 9/11 and terrorist but then when they made part two to the movie they actually took the gate down just to film the scenes and then after the scenes were done the fences went right back up but this time much better they even put plants around the area because there was none
