Green screen in Aldershot
Another shot of the green screen in Aldershot for this WWZ (we think) film, aka HCZ.
That was as it was going up, and now it's all coming down again.
Local news been digging into the comments round here, on twitter and so on

Samsung v Apple – Kubrick wins
Google film locations
Looking up the location of the Aldershot film location, Google has this capture from what must have been a previous set up.
And then as a frequent haunt of mine, checking out Google's view on Swinley and seems it caught not only a plane going over but also the green screen stuff that was being built there during the Harry Potter filming back in 2009.
Yet more filming in Aldershot
Again, not looking for these, it's just I drive past these places and the route home takes me past a now common spot for filming in Aldershot. This time lots of scaffolding put up, some sort of wooden structure being built and they've now put screening up to hide it from the road.
Place was used in the past for a Bond film apparently and other things I'm not sure about.
This time the signs up are for HCZ Unit. HCZ = Film company? Or code name for the film (or TV show)?
Haven't got a photo myself, but @herodian has a couple
Further edit - Seems now it's World War Z (makes sense, HCZ = working title Holocaust Zombie ?)
Paths of Glory comes to Criterion and on Blu Ray
Only just spotted this, but the fantastic Kubrick flick Paths of Glory
Looks like not only is it in the original 1.66:1 ratio and a spanking new transfer (hopefully respectfully treated by Criterion which would a refreshing change from the glossy noise reduction transfers of big name studios when they do Blu Ray releases), but also has a number of interesting extras including a TV interview with Douglas and a new interview with Jan Harlan, James B. Harris and Christiane Kubrick. Not to mention a commentary on top. A big improvement on the non-existent extras on the old DVD.
Sadly Criterion are US only and yes the Blu Ray is locked to Region A, so if you're importing you'll need a Region A player or a multi-region player (just make sure it's Blu Ray multi-region, not just DVD multi-region as some are the latter only). PS3 owners are stuck unless you've got a suitable hacked player.

P.S. Also available on Criterion DVD
Potter returns to Swinley
More filming for the Harry Potter Deathly Hallows flicks in Swinley it seems.
Not much to see given the limit viewpoints around the area they have closed off, although there are better shots around the net. Essentially there's some green screen and some sort of stone archway set.
