Montreal is losing a major Hollywood production that was set to employ 500 people in the city's film industry.

The movie The Night at the Museum is moving to Vancouver and one person involved in the film industry says the production has switched locations because actor Ben Stiller is not keen on Montreal.

Michel Trudel, the owner of Mel's Cité du Cinéma, a film equipment rental company in Montreal, claims Stiller would only accept the role in the movie if it was filmed in Vancouver.

But a spokesperson for 20th Century Fox insists the actor had nothing to do with the film's move. The production is worth $140 million.

The company had already spent $3 million preparing for the movie in Montreal, Trudel says.

What a load !
Stiller knows winter is coming and B.C. is a lot more tolerable than winter in Mtl.
His movies make huge $$$. He said jump and they jumped.
At least the $$$ is being spent in Canada !

When Ben Stiller learns how to act and isn't riding the coat tails of Mommy and Daddy's name to success, then maybe people will care about what he has to say.

Remember, Ben Stiller thinks that the 1974 Gran Torino is, and i quote, "The Best Car Ever!"

Hey Ben, it's just a Ford Torino, buddy...get back with me when you learn what a REAL muscle car is, asshole.

Hmmmm, what's the difference between Pauly Shore and Ben Stiller?

Nothing at all.....................
