Yellow Challenger in The Bucket List
« on: December 20, 2007 - 01:44:11 AM »
Another movie out this time with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson. There's a scene in it of a 70 Challenger racing a Mustang. Doesn't look much to be a car movie but will probably be pretty funny nonetheless.

They are more than likely to crash it. :villagers: :-[ It seems to be the trend in all the movies with them in it.

Not to cause confusion, I do not know if they are going to crash it in THIS movie. It is just every movie I have seen with a muscle car in it gets totaled in one way or the other.

Looks like they trashed the Rustang for sure  :jumping: :swaying: :crazy:  I hope they didn't trash the Challenger.

On the other hand - that looks like it will be a good Date Night movie with my Wife  :bigshades: Break Out the Tissues and the Popcorn  :popcorn:  Should score some points on the Chick Flick O-Meter   :bananasmi

Ok....the Challenger and the Mustang appears to be equal on the track.  Morgan gets kind of wild and side swipes the Challenger.  There goes the front left fender.  Does it again and scrubs the remainder of the drivers side.  Both still going strong.  Morgan takes a leap over the dirt ramp......OK......Jack does the same.......reminds me of Vanishing point....Both still going strong.  Then they start to exit the track, Morgan goes thru the tunnel and does a  180 to wait on Jack.  The Challenger dies in the  tunnel..won't start.  Anyway.....not totally trashed.................I would still want it.......... :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
