Actors Owen Wilson and Amanda Bynes will arrive on campus today to film a scene for ?Hall Pass,? a comedy directed by Bobby and Peter Farrely to be released next year.

David McClurkin, filming liaison for Emory University and business development manager of marketing, said that Emory is one of 42 locations of filming in Georgia and that Emory alum JB Rogers (?86C) is working on the movie as first assistant director.

The film crew will arrive on campus at 8 a.m. and set up during the day at the Kappa Alpha Order (KA) and Alpha Tau Omega (ATO) houses. Filming will begin this evening and Eagle Row will be closed until 6 a.m. tomorrow.

The two fraternity houses will be transformed into sorority houses for the film, McClurkin said.

?Emory won?t be featured by any means,? McClurkin said, ?but Emory has what looks like really authentic [Greek life] houses that look good in front of the camera.

McClurkin said that Emory will be paid for providing the location.

College senior and ATO member Stephen Beehler said the ATO and KA houses have a classic fraternity character that was needed for the movie location.

?It?s pretty exciting,? he said. ?Emory gets a lot of offers to have movies come and film on the campus and they don?t always accept those offers. We have a beautiful campus and this is a chance for us to show it off. It?ll be nice to see ATO on the big screen in a couple of months.?

College sophomore and ATO member Thomas Anderson agreed.

?It?s really cool just to be selected [as a filming location]. It will be really cool to look back at that movie years from now and see that we were part of it and that Emory was a part of it,? he said.

College senior and KA member Robert Conrad said his fraternity is especially excited to see celebrities like Wilson and Bynes.

They both played TV teenagers in the 90s, but it took a couple decades for actresses Christina Applegate and Alyssa Milano to earn a “Hall Pass.” According to The Hollywood Reporter, the lovely ladies have been cast in the Farrelly brothers comedy alongside already announced stars Owen Wilson, Jason Sudeikis, Jenna Fischer and Amanda Bynes .

With a growing gang of famous faces, the flick seems to be shaping up to be the raunchy step-cousin to Garry Marshall’s sweet-as-pie “Valentine’s Day” (though we somehow doubt the actors’ mugs will be combined into the shape of a heart for the “Hall Pass” poster).

The flick “centers on what happens when two husbands are given permission to go outside their marriages for guilt-free romantic liaisons for one week.” We’re not sure which characters Christina and Alyssa will play, but it’s likely at least one, if not both, will be married to the husbands mentioned, which leaves one burning question: Who in their right mind who want to step out on these gals? We’re curious to see how this kooky premise turns out and if the wives get a little on-the-side lovin’ of their own (if you know what I mean).

What do you think Crushers? Do you think “Hall Pass” is going to ace the reviews or end up on academic probation?

Unfortunately I couldn’t save the gallery and I had to create a new one – somehow I’m glad because the old one was in such a mess ..
I have all photos saved on my computer, I just need to upload them all and this will take time, there were almost 17,000 images so please be patient. I have started with some photoshoot, candids and movie images and on the next days I will be completing as fast as I can, focusing on the most recent images. Just thought I’d let you guys know.

I am opening the forum later today as well!!



Dear visitors, we are experiencing some problems with the gallery. Truth is that it needed an upgrade urgently and the root directory is in quite a mess, which means the past owners of the site left me a big work. I am going to try and get it fixed as soon as I can, if not I will need to transfer all the photos to a new gallery. I will do all the possible for us not to lose this one, but things are really messy.

I’d like to thank everyone who’s been offering some help, I’ll contact you as soon as possible. I am also seriously considering opening a forum since the site is so popular and we need a place to chat about Amanda!

Edit: the gallery needed to be re-built and that’s what I’m currently doing. I need to transfer all images to the new one and it might take a while, I’m so sorry about this! Regarding the forum, it’s created and I’m also working on it. I will post links to the new features as soon as they are done!
