All in front of a green screen, my man. You've been fed a line of bullshit. |
hmm well, apparently i heard this a long time ago LOL...but my man, it wasnt bullshit. lucas was scouting there, but i guess he decided not to do it:
24 September, 1999
Location scouting has begun for Episode II. Producer Rick McCallum is in Italy checking out a Franciscan convent near Assisi as a possible Sith temple. He has also been checking out Mt Vesuvius. Could this be for the long rumored battle between Anakin and Obi-Wan? The Caserta Royal Palace that was used in Episode I will be used again. This time shots could include the palace's gardens.
