'02 movie sighting....

[02fanatic]

Maybe this is already on the list...but I just caught sight of an Agave Roundie (I think) on the Movie "Hooper" (1978) with Burt Reynolds, Sally Field, & Jan-Michael Vincent. The '02 was parked in the back of a movie set that Hooper was on (Burt Reynolds plays a movie stunt man). Always cool to spot an '02 in a movie! :-)

Get that Christmas Shopping done this weekend! We're gonna try!

Was watching "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" (trying to get in the mood for holiday shopping...) and in the opening few minutes, thought I saw a dark (Malaga?) 02.

It's at the scene at the cemetery -- when the van is driving up. Dunno know..

Look for the loaded BMW car carrier in Clint Eastwood's "Every Which Way But Loose". It is in the background of the fight scene where Filo Bedo beats up the ill-mannered Black Widows at the cafe. The cars are sadly not '02s but an assortment of late '70s or early '80s BMWs.

Don't think anything beats the road chase in The China Syndrome. Jack Lemmon is the good guy out-cornering some thugs in an American hulk. Brown squaretail.

It's painful, but in the original "Gone on 60 seconds" there's a a sweet little silver 02 that gets tagged in the melee.

The original Gone in 60 seconds (70's) accualy has two old bimmers in it. the one that gets tagged on the roadside, and another (I think it was a copper or gold tone) I think it may have been a 4 door 1600 though. all you can really see is the shiny chrome grill. pulling in behind "Elenore" in the car wash scene.

I saw a second '02 movie sighting on the "same night"...it was a Fjord Blue square on a horror movie...something about green clover leaf's on tv that brainwash everyone...halloween thing...weird....but there was an '02 in a street scene in the movie. That was my 2nd sighting in one night...and I wasn't watching much tv really!...just a coincidence.

Go to the search page and search by make and model. lots of 02's to be found.

The movie "Backdraft" is the only one that truly can be noted in my opinion. Without the use of help, I've spotted a 2002 in the original "Charley and the Chocolate Factory" and the original "Freaky Friday". Seeing as though I grew up on these three movies, I think T.V. was trying to give me subliminal messages to one day inherit Karl.
