The film is now called "Das 100 Millionen Dollar Date" and airs in Germany on SAT1 network 12/04/2007. From what see from trailers, even in German..looks great. Here are links to both a short trailer and a 7 minute long one, both with some good Seattle views. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VOkUbTBSus http://www.tvmovie.de/TV_Movie_Trailer-Popup.160.0.html?highspeed=1&display=1&detail=6895765&parent=83

@7&8... The only "update" occurred the same day the post went up -- Aug. 3rd. Time to get a new aggregator?

Regarding the "gun", it is a water gun that the grandfather of the boy enjoys freaking people out with and was actually squirting water on the hood of the brown cadillac in the scene. I was the featured extra sitting in the passenger seat of the caddy. The scene previous to it in the film the grandfather was playing cops and robbers with a bank security guard friend of his and his son, driver of the car and father of the boy, had picked up up at the bank..is not a "shoot em up" movie.

I love seeing Seattle on TV. Remember the miniseries 10.5? There was a great shot of the Space Needle falling and taking out what, I suppose, was Second Avenue in Belltown, which would make the Space Needle like a mile and some tall. It just goes to show that everyone, everywhere thinks the Space Needle is like one of the buildings in the Jetsons.

"...a heartfelt story of a child who attempts to reconcile the loss of his father by taking a journey to Seattle to meet Bill Gates". Thus the gun.

I saw the same scene being filmed as in the pictures at 1pm. By 2pm, they had moved to Steinbreuck Park. The trailers and catering tent is over by Cost Plus at Western and Elliott.

I wonder if the movie ends with the German kids realizing that Bill Gates does not live in the city of Seattle. At least they are actually filming on the real streets of Seattle unlike the hundreds of crappy shows filmed in LA or Vancouver that are supposed to be Seattle. Jake of 8bitjoystick.com

Residents of Capitol Hill got a letter saying that they'd be filming in Volunteer Park this weekend. I think it's a TV movie.
