I just saw on a twitter feed:

twitter.com/goforlocations

filming locations for the new film- are they posted anywhere else?
 
The Raleigh Studios in Playa Vista CA does look to be the back lot where the containers were located in last weeks pictures.

Load this into Bing Maps, and do the Bird's Eye view option.
33.977593,-118.410571

Zoom and rotate, you'll see how the houses on the hill seem to match up as well.

Some of those house have a perfect view right down onto the studio. I'm surprised that more pictures haven't come out from that perspective.

That does look like a likely spot and in fact it's one I'd been eyeballing when the "container" article first came out. Still, as I replied to you in the other thread:
^ It could be that the only good vantage point for set pics is the one now on the wrong side of the row of containers. The folks in the houses on the hill—given a really, really nice lens—might well have an absolutely perfect shot of the unpainted two-by-fours and plywood of the back side of the filming sets, and little else.

.

This stuff, however:

sorry might have linked that twitter sight wrong its
@goforlocations

:confused::confused:

...is just bunk. The Twitter account to which ZRIK was trying to link has a grand total of four entries, dating from April, May and August of 2009, and there's nothing of any interest at all in any of them:

I'll close this and let discussion of locations continue in the other, already-existing thread.

EJD1984, I'll copy your comment about the location and map coordinates over to that one.
