    Favorite Movies/Videos w/ BMW's?

    So...the movies you mention don't necessarily have to be good, but what are some cool movies with good BMW scenes?
    And what are some cool clips/dvds with BMWs?

    Here are some that I remember:

    The Hire series- Obviously, right? the BMW films.

    Shoot em Up- Not a particularly good movie, in my opinion, but it was entertaining. There was a lot of over-the-top action sequences and the e36 chase sequence was no exception

    Ronin- Lots of cool car scenes, including a chase involving an e34 m5. Thought it was pretty good.

    There was another movie I watched a long time ago that seemed a little similar to Ronin...it had an e30 m3 in it. Forgot what it was called though.

      In the "Married with Children..." episode when Al has to pump gas to pay the $12.00 he owes, Marcy and Jefferson pull up in an 87 Delphin Gray cabby.

      It's on www.hulu.com if you're interested in seeing it. I believe about 12 minutes in.

      Looks like they removed the rear convertible hatch as they couldn't figure out how to fold the top down correctly and close the hatch, so they just removed the hatch and you can see the exposed ragtop folded down in the back.

      No windshield either for the camera shots from in front of the car.

        Jack Lemmon drives a brown 2002 in a little car chase!
        Not that I care, of course.

          Kristy Swanson looks absolutely stunning in that movie.

          She's one of my favorite babes.

              Well, you already listed The Hire and Ronin, so I thought of another one. The movie sucked, although Uma Thurmon was quite a high point, it was Paycheck. It had a sweet little scene with the R 1150 R Rockster. I think one of the Bourne movies (Bourne Ultitorium or Bourne Aquarium or something) had an euro E28 in it, it wasn't doing burnouts through city squares or anything, but I remember it had a very cool, simplistic look to it.

                    Indeed, I can't wait for my brother to get some onto his '88 535is. They really look good with a drop and some 16" E38 basketweaves.

                      My next car might be an '88 535i. Just waiting for the owner to drop it, I'll have 1st dibs.

                      Balanced motor, cam, chip, black leather, delphin...

                      mmm

                        Good chase, but it wasn't an M5.

                            Did it just have the badges?

                            James Bond: Tomorrow Never Dies. I was interested by BMW's before then, but the 750i in that movie made me fall in love with them.

                              What?! Apparently you've never seen "No Man's Land" then. http://youtube.com/watch?v=_c0dj11dn98

                              Or maybe have, but you aren't into 911s.

                              For me, my favorite BMW movie is "Nothing But Trouble". I bought my E23 745i because of it.
