Author Topic: Avril Lavigne Video - Empty Theatre Jeff Stuckey Film Handler Posts: 62 From: Oklahoma City, OK, USA Registered: May 2003 posted 08-26-2004 10:18 AM                     Okay, I don't want to freely admit that I watch MTV still. But let's just say I was flipping channels and saw the new Avril Lavigne video for "My Happy Ending". I noticed at the beginning she is walking down the street. Then she goes in to what is clearly a closed movie theatre. Then most of the interior of the video is shot in what looks like that theatre. First, has anyone else seen this (fess up)? Do you know what theatre that is and if the video was truly shot inside? I just am rather curious. I am also prepared to be pelted with rotten eggs for posting anything about Avril Lavigne. Thanks everyone.  |  IP: Logged Ron Lacheur Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 650 From: British Columbia, Canada Registered: Feb 2002 posted 08-26-2004 01:05 PM                     I've seen it. I'm guessing it's a movie theater in Toronto or a surrounding city.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 08-26-2004 01:41 PM                       What's an Avril Lavigne?  |  IP: Logged Adam Wilbert Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 590 From: Bellingham, WA, USA Registered: Mar 2002 posted 08-26-2004 02:14 PM                        richard greco should be around any minute now to confirm or deny...  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 08-26-2004 05:32 PM                     Avril Lavigne. I don't know why, but the name seems like a technical term for some part of a vagina (even though it isn't).  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-26-2004 07:18 PM                        She's a young female rock singer who actually keeps her clothes on. She's not bad, actually. Compared to all the Britney Spearses and the like, she's a breath of fresh air.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 08-26-2004 07:41 PM                        I don't follow bubblegum pop, but from my limited knowledge Avril is the one who wears bunches of dark make-up and sports a 'tude and I'm pretty sure she hates men and life and all that fun stuff.  |  IP: Logged Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 08-26-2004 09:59 PM                     "Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated? You see, The way you're acting like your somebody else gets me frustrated. Life's like this. You crawl, and you run, and tou take what you can get until you turn it into something else..." Actually, that and Sk8ter Boi are the only two songs I know of her. She's kinda cute, but not my type. I'm not a fan. I really like country music and hard rock. Now Amy Lee from Evanescence is a hot rocker I'm not into bubblegum pop anymore either. I like Lindsay Lohan's music because alot of it is towards the rock genre. Hillary Duff has a few good songs too. She's just really hot.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

I have no idea what theatre it is, but it, like everything else in the video, is in Chicago somewhere alongside the "L".  |  IP: Logged Scott D.

Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 08-29-2004 05:10 PM                     If it's in Chicago, I've probably seen it. Post a couple of screen captures and someone should be able to identify it. Or hop over to Cinematour and see if you recognize it. There aren't really many right on the El, but there are a few. If it's a HUGE theater, the Uptown comes immediately to mind. The Chicago is also on the El, but it's open as a PAC.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

Nothing too fancy. Actually it was quite plain, with only a 3 or 4 line mylar board on the canopy.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony. Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 08-29-2004 11:58 PM                     I really can't think of anything in Chicago that fits that description. Maybe some other city with an elevated train?  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

It's been at least five years since I've last been to Chicago, although it did look kind of familiar. It's definitely a US city.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony.
