Fantastic Four in Shanghai.

By Updated on: less than a minute

So I just checked out the new 'Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer' trailer and guess what's in it: the Oriental Pearl TV Tower! Awesome, seems like Mission Impossible 3 did it's part in bringing more moviemakers to China. I wonder though, if the directors are going to show any clothes hanging around this time. Here are three screen captures, in case you don't believe me:

Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer Shanghai #1

Destroying the Nanjing road?

Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer Shanghai #2

Near the Peace hotel?

Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer Shanghai #3

But the police car in the last frame doesn't look very Shanghainese to me.

Anyway, now there's another good reason to watch this movie - next to Jessica Alba, of course. Hope my wife doesn't read this... Some more F4 links.
