    Did last bond movie even have a car in it? I saw an expensive first-aid kit.

    LOL, if a year ago I would tell that there will be a movie about Ford and wiper blades, I would be decapitated, castrated, set on fire, and fed to sharks.

    It will be one of those movies you see once, and maybe buy on DVD, but never watch the second time. Examples: Ali, Remember the Titans, and most other biopics.

    Does look like a good movie.

    On a related note, I've been driving my Corvair for the past week and forgot it only had single speed wipers on it when a rain shower came through.

    I guess in the age of free Mp3's no one gives a fuck about "rights" to an idea.
    Sadly I think your right. No one from my generation does care. Sad reality...
    Definitely gonna go see the movie, definitely looks interesting. Reminds me of how much I hate the wipers on my c10 and my dad's galaxie. After daily driving an old car, I've definitely learned to appreciate the e30's wipers living in washington.

    Looks pretty good. Not really my kind of movie though, but I'm sure my dad would love it.

    I dunno, I'm not all that into 'inspiring' movies, which is what I got out of the trailer I've seen. Doesn't seem like a 'car move' either. You could replace the wipers with a twisty blade, and Ford with Cuisinart and get the same thing. Atleast thats what I'm thinking, but we'll see when i watch it.
