$85M Disney Production To Start Filming In Chatham In December

movie set

Capecodonline.com – Over 60 years ago, what is known as the greatest small-boat rescue in Coast Guard history occurred off the shore of this seaside town, when waves from a severe nor’easter snapped a 503-foot tanker in two.

Four young Coast Guardsmen braved high seas, wind and driving snow in a small wooden vessel to save 32 seamen that day from the sinking stern section. Seven crewmen and the tanker’s captain lost their lives when the bow sank.

In December, the heroic tale will be recreated in downtown Chatham when filming commences on a Disney-financed production on the rescue that is set to premiere next year.

“Everything is on schedule. They’re looking to start filming the first few weeks in December,” said Chatham Police Chief Mark Pawlina, who issued a production permit to Disney. “We’re hoping it will have as minimal impact as possible on the town.”

“The Finest Hours,” which is based off Casey Sherman’s and Michael J. Tougias’ best-selling book with the same title, will star Chris Pine, Academy Award and Golden Globe nominee Casey Affleck and Holliday Grainger, according to a statement from Disney.

How much do you want to bet that The Fun Police will find some way to complain about this? Some self important prick is going to get to his usual parking spot by the harbor and Casey Affleck is going to be taking a shit in a Porta Potty right where he usually puts his BMW. Mark it down folks, NostraHippie has spoken.

Luckily people have a hard on for celebrities and movies in general. I’m pretty sure even the Fun Police are no match for a giant Hollywood production, tons of money, and national recognition for the Cape. At least let’s hope so…

Meghan Trainor Played Football And Her Fans Are Called Megatrons? Sign Me Up!

meghan-trainor

GC – During her teenage years, Megan had to deal with constant scrutiny over her body- “I grew up on Nantucket, in Massachusetts, and played football in school. My crowd was all the skinny, beautiful, popular girls and I was their, like, thicker friend. This one dude I was in love with told me in seventh grade, ‘You’d be so much hotter if you were 10 pounds lighter.’ It crushed me.”

Cambio – 5. Her fans are called Megatrons: “I hope Transformers lets me keep the name,” she told the UK Guardian. “It’s helped me on my path, knowing all these girls look up to me, and it helps me learn to love myself. Their support, reading their messages, makes it that much easier. It’s not a lot of pressure, it’s just amazing that one song can change all these lives.”

Hell yes, my ass is firmly planted on the Megatron bus. Meghan and I are like the same person practically. I grew up on Cape Cod. I played football. My crowd was all the skinny, beautiful, popular girls in high school. The dude I was in love with in seve… ok the similarities end at the playing football thing, but I still feel like we could be besties. Hit me up Meghan, let’s talk Cape Cod, stupid boys, and jealous bitches!

Seriously though, talk about living on different planets. Could you imagine if we tried to give Real Cape readers some cutesy nickname and then I said something like this… “It’s helped me on my path, knowing all these readers look up to me, and it helps me learn to love myself. Their support, reading their messages, makes it that much easier. It’s not a lot of pressure, it’s just amazing that one blog can change all these lives.”

I’m pretty sure all of Cape Cod would collectively puke all over themselves.

P.S. Dead serious about being a Megatron though, I’m all about that bass.

Army Corps Has Some Great Advice On How To Deal With Sagamore Lane Closings

sagamore

Capecodonline.com – On Tuesday another lane of the Sagamore Bridge will be closed for a $12.5 million painting project.

For the past three weeks, one lane headed on Cape was closed 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m while the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers worked on the bridge, but all lanes were open at night and on weekends.

But starting this week, an additional lane, headed off Cape, will also be closed to traffic and the lane restrictions are possible during nights and weekends, the Army Corps said in a statement.

No wide loads will be permitted to cross the span during the lane restriction, and state and local police will be in the area to assist drivers, the Corps said.

The Army Corps advises motorists to avoid peak travel periods or seek alternate routes.

Never mind that it seems like they’ve been painting the Sagamore bridge since the Clinton administration, that is a rant as old as time itself. What I want to know is who issued that advisory statement in bold at the end of the article? I need to talk to this person and ask them some questions. Mainly if one ounce of thought was put into it, because that may be the most ridiculous advice ever written in the history of words.

Avoid peak travel periods? Genius! You don’t want to hit traffic? Well then just don’t drive when other people are driving dumbass. It’s simple really, just change all of your responsibilities to between midnight and 4 a.m. I’m sure your boss/professor/coach etc. will understand and welcome your new schedule.

Seek alternate routes? Let me just repeat that one real quick, after I remind you that we are talking about THE SAGAMORE FUCKING BRIDGE… Seek alternate routes? Newsflash Army Corps spokesface… there is no alternate route, it’s a bridge over a body of water to get off of a peninsula. There is no ferry, there is no tunnel, there is one other bridge and it is not what most would consider a viable “alternate route” when it comes to time.

So in conclusion, when the Army Corps’ talking head tells us that the best way to evade backups is to… “Avoid peak travel periods or seek alternate routes”, they should really just say… “Either quit your job or buy a helicopter”.
