Los Angeles In-Jokes

Did anyone but me catch them in Matrix Reloaded?

And it looks like they shot the freeway scenes in Alameda.

EDIT: Actually, I was hoping someone besides me heard the "one-Adam 12" calls on the police radios and the Wilcox offramp from the 101? That's the one that you use to get to Warner Bros in Burbank from Hollywood.

Anyone catch others?

The fact it said US HWY 101 on the Freeway? Well, yea... they thanked the city of Alameda at the end of the movie.

They figured out it was cheaper and easier to build a chunk of round on one of the abandoned Navel bases (Alameda or Treasure Island) then to pay the permits and deal with the hassles of renting a real one.

Other parts were filmed in Oakland, but Alameda got the credit. :)

Hubby and I giggled muchly at the 1-Adam-12 bits. We were too engrossed in the action, seeing it the first time. Next time we watch it, we'll likely be picking apart little bits and pieces.
