<p>Saw it this weekend with my TU student. We had fun picking out all of the campus locations in the background. Reasonably funny; not too bad on the inappropriate scale. </p>
<p>I know the students had a GREAT time when this was filming.</p>
<p>I remember another movie that was filmed on campus were some scenes that were supposed to be in “The Butler” with Forest Whitaker, et. al. I saw the movie but couldn’t see any scenes of the campus. Either the filming never happened as planned or they got left on the cutting room floor. At least I couldn’t see them.</p>
<p>Of course several other movies with campus scenes did come out. A lot of the campus was in that Miley Cyrus film, So Undercover. I think Pitch Perfect also used the campus? I know several Tulane students were in the film.</p>
<p>As they say, NOLA is Hollywood South.</p>
<p>Pitch Perfect 2 and Jurassic Park 4 were both recently casting for massive numbers of extras. Not on the Tulane campus but just in general. As was the new Sophia Vagara/Reese Witherspoon movie. I have a friend who is a “professional extra” and she gets all the casting notices. The Jurassic Park one was filming at the abandoned Six Flags and was a paying gig! </p>
<p>There is a great place on Magazine Street “District Donuts.” If you follow them on Instagram, today’s post was a photo of Sophia Vagara with a box of their donuts. Both the donuts and Sophia are beautiful!</p>
<p>And Resse Witherspoon took her nieces to Dat Dog on Magazine last week. </p>
<p>District Donuts is one of my favorite places! D took us there one time and now we have to go there every time - the cream filling they have in some of their donuts is sooooo good.</p>
<p>That’s a new one for me (District Donuts that is). I will definitely give them a try next time.</p>
<p>New to me too, added it to our list for August!</p>
<p>My D works at Pizza Domenica on Magazine Street and she said that Sophia Vagara had lunch there on Saturday</p>
<p>Gotta say, this really does add some spice to being a Tulane student. I know another poster on here that has a D that is a server at a fairly upscale place in NOLA for a couple of years now and she sees celebs from time to time…</p>
