Batman...come out to play!

Batman: The Dark Knight has been filming in Chicago for a couple of months and are scheduled to do so through September. The crew is using the empty lot next to my office as a staging area. The entire operation has been understandably uber-secretive. Even so, I am truly disappointed at the lack of Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, and Maggie Gyllenhaal sightings. Actually, aside from on-the-set glimpses, Bale and Ledger seem like ghosts in this town. I respect these actors and would love to hang out. But really, I just want them to be out and about, falling in love with the city, and raving about how wonderful Chicago is. The stunt guys regularly come to the restaurant I work at and update us on the filming schedule, so I know you guys are here! C'mon come out and play!!
