So cool story about this movie: My wife and I were on our honeymoon in Eluthera, Bahamas in Nov of 2013. We met a couple of Canadian brothers who we went to the local "celebrity" bar with, and there we met George Clooney, Hugh Laurie and Brad Bird – all of whom where filming "Tomorrowland" there.
It was interesting. This place, called Tippy's, is the bar where every celebrity goes for dinner (at some point) when they are on the island of Eluthera. It was featured in the New Yorker, or some other well-read magazine, and the food is great. We went and it happened that the aforementioned trio was there – along with crew - filming this movie. Our new Cannuck friends were pretty hip to the local scene, warning us not to take any photos, pointing out that the local Tippy's scene is sacred there, so we weren't to do anything overtly over the top. So what do they do? They order a round of Patron shots for all of the movie people! They told a bar tender to bring a bottle of Patron, glasses for everyone. They announced that we were celebrating out honeymoon, and the drinks were to commemorate that. Everyone took a shot. Clooney wasn't feeling it.
The second George Clooney realized (paraphrasing) "people recognize me, oh no, fuck this place!" he laid $200 on the table and got up and left. It was like he just couldn't handle it. We weren't in his face, asking him questions – we were all just standing around. But he left. Right when the band was about to get good.
Hugh Laurie, with a long head of hair with a balding spot, stayed and hung out and watched the band play. He was a really awesome dude with whom I spoke for a few minutes, mentioning his music and role of House and how much I appreciated his talents. He was just really chill and appreciative.
My wife was enamored with Brad Bird, repeatedly saying that he was a genius. I'd honestly never heard of him, but animation/Disney isn't my thing.
So I'm actually really excited to see this movie to relive that memory of being there and meeting them. I know at one point Clooney joked to us that he and Hugh "wrestled on the beach that day," so it sounds like there are some fight scenes with him and Laurie as the "bad guy."
TL:DR: my wife and I were on our honeymoon in the Bahamas while they were filming this movie, and we met Clooney, Laurie and Bird.
