Yes Man - 2008 film behind the scenes - singing 'Jumper' by Third Eye Blind

One of the gazillion movies filmed in front of my apartment, which is cool - don't get me wrong...

However, this one takes the cake for contributing to the most annoying 2 days of my life. :P

I woke up after an hour of sleep (in the wee hours of the morning) to people singing:

"I WILL UNDERSTAAAAANNNN-AAAAAANNNN-ANND!!!"
(repeat 60,349 times)...ok not really, but it repeated a lot more than I got on film.

On day two, I was so sleep deprived that I ran onto the fire escape in my pajamas and yelled, "I don't understand??!!!...Why you have to keep singing this song over and over?!" haha, oops!

However, I did see the film and it was awesome. So I forgive the inconvenience. :)

did you see jim?

[ivysomething]

@JO3Gaming Yes! But he was singing outside the window on another street (same apartment) at a different time than this was recorded.

why that building there is white? i thought it is red or something in the movie?

[ivysomething]

The scene with Jim Carrey was shot at the 7th Street side of the building (facing South), but the scene with the singing bystanders was shot at the Normandie Ave side (facing East).

You can view the building on google maps (710 S. Normandie Ave, Los Angeles)

@HoshiHikari It MAY have been annoying BUT they HAD ta get The Melody EXACTLY RIGHT OR ELSE The Scene WOULD NOT HAVE HAD the RIGHT EMOTIONAL IMPACT ! Film Extras HAVE TO PUT THE FILM FIRST REGARDLESS OF WHAT PEOPLE THINK !

@afcblandi Duh , it WASN`T in The Book ! The Book was published BEFORE Third Eye Blind`s " Jumper " WAS released ! Also , what`s with the freakin` Hulkspeak ?!?!?
