It works for me. I still collect comics so the situation is win-win for me. :)

Oh, and a release w/o subtitles:

Looks good, and although not my type  :lol2: I've always liked that actor, he does smart a$$ really well.  That's considered high praise in our household!  Definitely nice to see the Challenger, lets just hope Hollywood can resist the urge to destroy it before the end of the movie.

I worked with Ghostlight who built these cars out in cali and we supplied All of the parts for the challengers. They started out as rolling shells 70 and 71, And yes just like Don Johnsons famous 71 cuda, these have 440's in them. Interesting what they did to them during filming. But to my understanding they did NOT do a vanishing point ending.

When I was shooting my car for Powerblock last week the Green Lantern car was in the studio before mine. I think that it is a 61 Imperial but it looked cool with the big guns sticking out of the hood. I was not able to get a picture because when it was pulling out, I was pulling my car in.

very nice, now i have a reason to see it.... the chally in the Zombie show a few weeks ago was the only reason i sat through it. Still need to see vanishing point. is it a sin that i own a 70 chally yet havent seen vanishing point? gotta give me a break for only being 20yrs old though.

Very cool to see a Challenger in another movie...and not get destroyed...

As far as the Green Hornet car....didn't moparclown's father own it or something at one point?  :clueless:  Someone on this site has some relation to it.

one of the disappointing parts that i found out while filming is that the cars looked to good for the roll and they artificially aged them...... :dunno:....... I had contacts with the mechanics on the sets on some other parts that they wanted and they mentioned that. SO when you see the movie that really wont look that good.
