stevier Posted July 16 Author Report Share Posted July 16 Originally posted by tranzwhore ur asian? No, that was a joke. Referring to the Character Johnny Depp played in the movie "Blow" . The real life guy Johnny Portrays is George Jung. He is not asian. He was the guy who helped Pablo Escobar bring in Cocaine to The United States. He basically introduced it and made it have a huge impact on America . Starting in Hollywood with all the big time actors and actresses and movie stars out there. If you bought Stuff in the late 70's and early 80's , there was an 85 percent chance you were getting it from Georges Source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trojanman Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 alot of it was filmed in LA..but that chainsaw seen was here....LA doesnt have an ocean drive does it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepulse Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 but I think it was the Colony or the one next to it. If you watch the movie, and look at the hotel windows, they are round. I remember walking by it in SOBE, somewhere near the COLONY HOTEL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funketeer Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 Fun with movie locations... Fun with a chainsaw: Johnny Rocket's, Miami Beach FILMING LOCATIONS: CALIFORNIA; FLORIDA; NEW YORKAnother one of those movies where the critics got it totally wrong. Trashed on its first release, de Palma's updating of the old gangster story ? it's basically Richard III with coke ? is now regarded as a classic. Set mainly in Florida, an awful lot of the movie was actually shot in California. The internment camp for the Cuban refugees was built under a freeway in LA, and both of the grand estates ? one supposedly in Florida, one supposedly in Bolivia ? can be found in Montecito on the California coast. And there's even a bit of New York in here too (the abortive bomb attack).Everybody's favourite scene, though, Pacino's brother getting carved up with a chain saw, really is Miami. The 'Sun Ray Apartment' has benefitted from the eighties make-over of Miami Beach's art deco district and is now Johnny Rocket's restaurant, 728 Ocean Drive near Seventh Street. Check out those round windows... do you hear a buzzing noise?Scarface, (1983, dir: Brian de Palma)Al Pacino; Steven Bauer; Michelle Pfeiffer; F Murray Abrahampeace and chicken greaseFUNKETEER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrjoebudious Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 Frank's mansion with the elevator that michelle phifer came down in is in somewhere in the Boca area. I met a fashion crew that did a scarface photo shoot in the house (something like 10k a day)The columbian guy was executed right on ocean drive.

I thought that house was in Key Biscayne so I've heard. I think it was owned by the actual Pablo Escobar's pilot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
