One of our contributing writers passed through Philadelphia this past weekend, and spotted something in their airport:
"In one of the long hallways between terminals -- I think it was terminal A -- they lined the whole thing with Philadelphia movie posters. You know, they've got all the Rocky movies, "The 6th Sense", all the other Shyamalan movies, "Witness", "12 Monkeys", "Philadelphia", and some other obscure ones I'd never heard of. There must have been a hundred of them -- it took up the entire length of the moving sidewalk."
What a great idea! In an entire airport full of historic landmark decor, movie posters add a fun twist to promoting the city. We think Logan Airport should steal this.
In fact, we would like an entire wall of movie posters right after you pass through security. Think about it: everybody's scrambling to put their shoes and belts back on... and we all feel a little sheepish after getting body scanned, frisked and molested. Wouldn't movie posters make a great distraction? Wouldn't it cheer you up to see tourists point at the "Jaws" poster and proclaim, "Well, I didn't know that was filmed here..."?
Hey Logan Airport... get on this!
