    Anyone seen 'The Bucket List'?
    « on: September 29, 2009 - 12:34:20 PM »
    I enjoyed it. This scene in particular was great!  :bigsmile:



    Interesting to see the two side by side - considering the Mustang is a pretty small car - Challenger is a lot smaller than I imagined next to it!

    I haven't seen it - but that pic, with the crumpled sheetmetal on the Challenger - makes me  :swear:

    As Good As It Gets is great! Everyone is great in that, but Nicholson is always reliable. He's excellent in 'About Schmidt', too.

    Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson have a real good rapport in this movie.

    As for the Challenger being crumpled - it's just one of those things. I don't get affected by it - I hope to find one before they all become crumpled though!

    It was a very good movie. The ending pulled at my heart strings.

     :iagree:  I am glad that they fixed it back up and it even looks better than it did in the movie.  Might watch the movie again this weekend not sure.   :bigsmile:

    Just like every movie now a days they made 4 cars for the movie, one a "hero", and the other the smasher. The 318 challenger was used for the fender rubbing scenes and the "hero" was a 5.7 hemi converted car that was auctioned off!

    After it sold in auction the buyer put it up on ebay, and now on mecum to be sold this coming week. :cheers:
