A hot dog of a movie prop man

The filmmakers at Sony Pictures didn't need spider senses to find Dave Martina.

The Clifton man is well-known in Hollywood for his supply of pushcarts that can give a movie set the feel of New York authenticity.

The latest film to use his carts is "Spider-Man 3.''

"It's pretty cool that my carts are used,'' said Martina. "It's funny to me that they need a Jersey guy for a New York item."

Martina's carts are already ubiquitous in the city, where peddlers use them to sell pretzels, hot dogs and other snacks.

His company, Push-Cart International, manufactures about 100 carts a year in factories on Van Houton Avenue in Clifton and on Long Island. Some are refrigerated, some handle hot water and others are made for cotton candy.

Martina said the folks behind "Spider-Man 3'' bought 10 hot dog carts, rented two others and an ice cream cart for filming in Manhattan.

"I actually heard on [FM radio station] WPLJ and some of the papers that my carts were actually being destroyed and thrown around," he says.

"I thought, 'Whoa, cool!' Those are actually my carts."

Martina's fascination with carts began at the old Capitol Theater in Passaic, where he swept the floor and noticed how busy the hot dog man was.

"I wanted to earn as much money and more,'' he said.

He bought his own fleet and said that in 1986 a vice president of Warner Bros. Studios drove by his cart stand in Clifton.

"He came in a limo. He slid down his window and told me, 'I want your cart. You can be in a commercial.' "

The rest is history.

Martina's Push-Cart International has provided carts to peddlers, to retailers holding grand openings, to party hosts and to Hollywood.

Carts cost $2,500 to purchase and $150 a day to rent. Martina's carts have been featured in more than 100 television shows, commercials and films.

One of his carts was involved in a key scene in "Sleepers,'' starring Robert DeNiro and Brad Pitt, and earned a spot on the movie's official poster.

"That scene took six carts to make the perfect shot,'' he says.

Martina said his next Hollywood venture is supplying carts for the shoot of "Tomb Raider 3'' in Argentina.

"That will start whenever that Angelina Jolie thing is over,'' he said.

If this is true do you know what this means? There is a script out there.... wonder where it could be....

Edited August 11, 200620 yr by Trinity34

Well I have been doing some digging on the mysterious script... if the above article is true and TR3 is being filmed in Argentina then maybe the script is about a South American myth. I did not find anything about a script for the third movie BUT what I did find was some earlier script ideas from when the first TR movie was being created. One of the ideas was the legend of El Dorado.

El Dorado

This article is about the mythical lost city of gold.

El Dorado (Spanish for "the gilded one") is a legend that began with the story of a South American tribal

chief who covered himself with gold dust.

Origins of the legend

=================================================================

The myth began in the 1530s in the Andes of present-day Colombia, where conquistador Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada first found the Muisca (1537), a nation in the modern day Cundinamarca and Boyacá highlands of Colombia. The story of the Muisca rituals was brought to Quito by Sebastian de Belalcazar’s men; mixed with

other rumors, there arose the legend of El Dorado, The Golden Manâ€â€

el indio dorado, the golden Indian, and el rey dorado, the Golden King. Imagined as a place, El Dorado became a kingdom, an empire, the city of this legendary golden king.

In search of this legendary kingdom, Francisco Orellana and Gonzalo Pizarro would depart from Quito in 1541 to

the Amazon Basin in the most fateful and famous expedition to find El Dorado.

Tribal ceremony

================================================================

The original narrative is to be found in the rambling chronicle, El Carnero, of Juan Rodriguez Freyle. According to Freyle, the king or chief priest of the Muisca was said to be ritually covered with gold dust at a religious festival held in Lake Guatavita, near present-day Bogotá.

In 1636 Juan Rodriguez Freyle wrote this account, addressed to his friend Don Juan, the cacique or governor of Guatavita:

The ceremony took place on the appointment of a new ruler. Before taking office, he spent some time secluded in a cave, without women, forbidden to eat salt and chile pepper, or to go out during daylight. The first journey he had to make was to go to the great lagoon of Guatavita, to make offerings and sacrifices to the demon which they worshipped as their god and lord. During the ceremony which took place at the lagoon, they made a raft of rushes, embellishing and decorating it with the most attractive things they had. They put on it four lighted braziers in which they burned much moque, which is the incense of these natives, and also resin and many other perfumes. The lagoon was large and deep, so that a ship with high sides could sail on it, all loaded with an infinity of men and women dressed in fine plumes, golden plaques and crowns.... As soon as those on the raft began to burn incense, they also lit braziers on the shore, so that the smoke hid the light of day.

At this time they stripped the heir to his skin, and anointed him with a sticky earth on which they placed gold dust so that he was completely covered with this metal. They placed him on the raft ... and at his feet they placed a great heap of gold and emeralds for him to offer to his god. In the raft with him went four principal subject chiefs, decked in plumes, crowns, bracelets, pendants and ear rings all of gold. They, too, were naked, and each one carried his offering .... when the raft reached the centre of the lagoon, they raised a banner as a signal for silence. The gilded Indian then ... [threw]out all the pile of gold into the middle of the lake, and the chiefs who had accompanied him did the same on their own accounts. ... After this they lowered the flag, which had remained up during the whole time of offering, and, as the raft moved towards the shore, the shouting began again, with pipes, flutes, and large teams of singers and dancers. With this ceremony the new ruler was received, and was recognized as lord and king.

It is believed that these rituals [citation needed] were carried out by the Muisca in several lakes along their territory.

The Muisca towns and their treasures quickly fell to the conquistadores. Taking stock of their newly won territory, the Spaniards realized that  in spite of the quantity of gold in the hands of the Indians  there were no golden cities, nor even rich mines, since the Muiscas obtained all their gold in trade. But at the same time, the Spanish began to hear stories of El Dorado from captured Indians, and of the rites which used to take place at the lagoon of Guatavita. There were Indians still alive who had witnessed the last Guatavita ceremony, and the stories these Indians told [citation needed] were consistent.

Guatavita today bears a curious notch in its cliffside, evidence of an attempt to drain the lake in 1580

Third Tomb Raider film?

16/08/06 12:00

Eidos' Ian Livingstone has revealed that the company is in talks with Paramount about a third Tomb Raider film. Before you get too excited though, beware that it's very much in the planning stages.

"Nothing's been signed yet and we still need to hire a script writer," said Livingstone in an interview published on Eurogamer today.

"The film's not been green lit yet, so for me it'd be ideal to tie in a movie script with a game script at the same time, to have them both in harmony rather than out of kilter - which has happened in the past."

Speaking of the past, this isn't the first we've heard of a third silver-screen outing for Lara - in the past, actress Angelina Jolie is said to have expressed an interest in reprising the role, while Chris Barrie, who also appeared in films 1 and 2, told a UK newspaper that a third film was "on the slate" in an interview last year.

Eidos feels that Lara Croft has been fully rejuvenated by the success of Tomb Raider: Legend, handled by Crystal Dynamics rather than UK-based Core Design, who Livingstone confesses were a bit worn out by the experience of making six Tomb Raider games in a row.

The development veteran was speaking prior to next week's Edinburgh Interactive Entertainment Festival address, where his main focus will be a screening called The Legend of Lara Croft - a "complete history" of Lara, "from the very early designs right through to Tomb Raider: Legend, and a little glimpse of what's happening in the future".

For more on that and Lara's fortunes in general, check out part two of our Livingstone interview, following on from yesterday's part one which focused on the battle of the next-gen consoles.

The creator of the game and character, Ian Livingstone told the newspaper that "Paramount has optioned it and Angelina has agreed to star in the third", whilst a source added "Angelina is already in training to make sure she gets rid of her post-pregnancy bulge.

Edited March 20, 200719 yr by ImBatman

We're all entitled to our own opinions...let's respect that, please.

Back on topic.

There's no definite info that I know of about a TR3 movie with AJ. Maybe if someone has info about it, they can post here.

To be honest, I hope AJ comes back to do the 3rd film. I don't think it would be good without her.

Of course, considering we'll have a 3rd film.... everything is very quiet on that front since December.

*fingers crossed*

By Nick Levine, Entertainment Reporter

Angelina Jolie is being lined up to appear in a third Tomb Raider film.

Creator Ian Livingstone revealed that Paramount Pictures are considering whether to make a follow-up to 2003's The Cradle Of Life.

Livingstone recently completed new Lara Croft game Tomb Raider: Anniversary.

He said of the movie: "At this moment in time it's still not green-lit, but the signs are there. Paramount have talked about the film for a long time, and I've had meetings with them.

"They're willing to put a scriptwriter on board. Angelina Jolie has an option to do a third movie.

"I think when they see how successful Anniversary will be and realise that the world is still in love with Lara, they'll be more inclined to exercise their option."
