FridgeFreezer Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Last night I caught "The Ninth Gate" In it one of the main characters (driving a P38) evades Johnny Depp (driving a Rolls) by driving through a stream on a french lane. Made a change to see a 4x4 in a chase scene actually get driven off-road, and for the bad guy to actually use their brain... Just noticed according to IMDB the tagline for the film is "Leave the unknown alone" - which should probably be printed on the front cover of all Haynes Manuals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 There's a Series-something in Existenz used for a particularly unrealistic bluescreen journey Series 3's in one of the Ace Ventura movies Series 1's in Gorgo (A true classic, but for the wrong reasons) And a Series 3 in Dog Soldiers that gets sabotaged by, err, throwing a load of wires under the bonnet or so it would seem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few more... Plenty of Military Defenders in "28 days later" Think Sigourney Weever drove a IIA(maybe III) in "Gorillas in the mist" In the opening prison sequence of "Romeo Must Die" were there 109's in the background?

FridgeFreezer Posted January 28, 2006 Author Share Posted January 28, 2006 Went to see Underworld Evolutions yesterday - mmmmm Kate Bekinsale.... drives a modified Range Rover in it. You'll just have to combine the two in your head unless anyone has a screen shot: Another thing is the Rangie is indestructable - it gets attacked by warewolves (or sumfink) who slam into it, and in the fight that follows people get chucked into it, heads smashed through windows, etc. and then the next scene it's driving down the mountian not a scratch on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
