1st Gens in the Movies -
Ok, this may be kinda lame, but I am a movie buff, and ever since I got my 1st Gen I have noticed them in the backgrounds of movies, like in the kick *** movie pulp fiction (one of my favorites) When they take the "dirty" car that the black kid marvin got shot in to Monster Joes Truck and Tow, there is a blue 1st gen on a car trailer in the background when they are standing out front. I also noticed one in the severely corny 80's movie with arnold shwazanegger - Commando. It is in the parking garage when they leave the airport and in the parking garage at the mall, both are silver and are probably the same car.... and garage for that matter, (hollywood corner-cutting). I know I know, get a life, you have too much time on your hands, etc, I just notice **** in the backgrounds of my favorite movies is all. Let me know if you guys have spotted 1st gens in the movies.

I see more 2nd gens than 1st gens, but the Geico commercial where the chick is trying to pic up here kid and doesn't have a car (only an air horn) has a FC in it.
Also, in "Don't be a menace to south central while drinking your juice in the hood" has a FC in it.

I rented "Ballistic" last evening. There was a nice metallic blue 1st generation in the early scene. It was a shooting scene and it was rather painful to see it got shot to the *****. BTW, the movie sucked!

yeah its like once you buy one you notice them all the time,
I can spot one from miles away, or even for a split second,
I proved this one day when my g/f and I where watching a van dam movie, i think it was called double take maybe?
its the one where there is two of him,
one bad one good, the good is a clone.
well anyway there is one for a split second in a fast parking garage chase scene,
its real quick glimps, there going around in one of those circular style parking garages, and for about a total of two frames there is an rx7.
look real hard and you will see,
my g/f didnt believe me that i seen one so I rewound the dvd and did frame by frame, we found it in two frames and one was blured.
maybe its cause i have owned so many?
or its because thats all i owned since I was 18?
got me

I know there is an FB in one of the Howling movies with the Werewolves and all. It's silver I think and this guy rescues this chick from all the werewolves and he hauls *** with it. Slams on the brakes and kind of drifts. The car gets blown up and like destroyed by werewolves later on. It was cool and tragic. I don't know which Howling movie it was..might be the first or second one.

I know this thread got pushed back, but I just felt I needed to bring it back up, I was just watching Ransom with Mel Gibson and thought I would share that I saw a 2nd Gen in a scene towards the end of the movie.
