Yeah; I live in Toronto, and that's the closest thing that gets me to road rage. Streets are randomly closed for extended period of time, and everybody involved acts like... unprintables. Which, I get, is a self-feeding process - public members are unprintables to police and security and film makers, who then in turn are pre-emptive unprintables to anybody. But gawd, it's an awful experience that's difficult to describe to people who haven't lived it - it's my home on my street with the shop I go to and school my kids go to, and my car or my bus station I take to my work, and suddenly we can't use it, are third-class citizens on our own street, with no rights or permission or ask, and not for some emergency infrastructure process, but so that Jaw Sharks On a Plane 27 can be filmed :-<
I have some empathy to the film crew, but while I'm all about practical effects in some ways, the city neighbourhoods should be CGId ASAP. This isn't a tiny-non-issue. Think about all the movies and shows on all the networks on all the streaming services. The 37 seasons of NCIS and 32 seasons of Law & Order and ten million episodes of all the crappy shows - every how many scenes in all of them closing down some neighbourhood somewhere for the shot of actor walking down the street.
