While driving around Floyd Bennett Field (a retired airport near Far Rockaway) on other business, a huge mass of shipping containers covered with green screen started to poke out from behind the trees. After some closer investigation and a run in with security, it was revealed that it was one of the major sets for The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. Produced by Jerry Brukheimer and shot by Walt Disney Pictures, it stars Nicholas Cage and is set for a 2010 release. This film has apparently been cursed this year involving a couple of auto accidents in downtown Manhattan, one involving a Ferrari and a Sbarros in Times Square.
