Jake Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 The ORIGINAL Gone in 60 seconds, 20minute odd car chase and no trickery, all real stunts in the one car. I wasn't aware that Gone In 60 Seconds was a remake until you posted the above. I've just been reading about the original at imdb.com http://imdb.com/title/tt0071571/trivia http://imdb.com/title/tt0071571/ I like that they left all the unplanned accidents in the movie.

Charlotte Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 taxi 1 and 2 are excellent. And the lead guy is pretty hunky. Remake was sh*t though. Crash - sort of? oh and cannon ball run for classic car chase action! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burna Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Smokey and the bandit Oh yes 'But I'm in high speed pursuit. Don't you hear good?' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonB Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Le Mans for sure, the best film ever made about cars I think. Grand Prix is brilliant as well, but you can't get it on DVD at the moment. "Racing is life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting..."

Aye the original one's worth a watch, it makes an appearance on Sky Cinema now and then. Halicki was killed filming the sequel Anyone remember the dance tune "Camels" by Santos? That featured some of the chase scenes from the original Gone in 60 Seconds. And Vanishing Point is awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
