Clooney loves shooting in Cincinnati, where he grew up. Glad to see several movies filming in Cincinnati this Summer and Fall.

George, you are from Kentucky. Spend a few more of your film making dollars here in Ohio and Kentucky. Frankly, we need the work. May God bless you.

Thank you, Terry! I just happened to be perusing the Columbus Dispatch to see how the locals had responded to my recent project, and came across this post. I was indeed born in Lexington, and spent a good portion of my youth in Augusta. I will certainly continue to support my home town to the best of my ability. Thank you for the blessings and fair tidings. Next time I'm in town, I'd like to have a beer with you, Terry J Blake!

That might explain why he got a place on Lake Como.

Thank you George for committing to more movies in Cincinnati, I actually was an extra in the "Ides of March" and look forward to you making another homecoming to the tri-state. I actually met you up at Crowleys in Mt. Adams one night. We are blessed to have such a representative.

If they move the Ohio primary to May, that kind of shoots this in the ear.

Yes I remember you. Glad you got out of that God-forsaken "Cow-lumbus"! You may have heard that I recently broke up with Elisabetta. You doing anything later? How about Crowleys at 9-ish. Wear that thing you had on the last time.

...do tell.

I'm thinking the "future commitments to Cincinnati" either mean you finally got drafted by the Dodgers, have developed a fetish for crocheting, or you have a Phoenix complex.

Ahem. And Batman still blows.
