Batman Filming in Pittsburgh, Blah, Blah, Blah

Batman of the Burgh

We would’ve made a huge announcement today about how director Chris Nolan will be in town filming ‘The Dark Knight Rises‘ in Pittsburgh…but you already know since we told you all the way back in February!

BoringPittsburgh.com pretty much started the rumors in the first place, so we decided to give the other local media sources an opportunity to regurgitate old news for a few days so that they might get a few extra hits on their pages

When will they start filming?
Christopher Nolan said: “…I am excited to spend the summer in Pittsburgh…”

So the film tax credit freeze was lifted?
Yes. It will remain at the current $60 million.

When does Batman: The Dark Knight Rises come out in theaters?
July 20, 2012

BP, Great job on getting the word out about the film tax credit freeze. You are partly to thank for The Dark Knight coming.

  It was an actual photograph of the city calling on us to save it from boredom. The photographer is undisclosed.
