These Vehicles Deserve To Be Featured In A Film Chase Scene, In accordance To Our Readers

Having just lately streamed Michael Bay’s “The Island” on Netflix, the third act of which has a kinda complicated chase scene that includes the Cadillac Cien idea, I bought to enthusiastic about what vehicles need to be seen on the silver display screen. In actual fact, not solely did I take into consideration that, however I additionally requested our great readers what vehicles they thought need to be featured in a chase scene in a film or tv present.

My instance was the 2004 Chrysler ME 4-Twelve idea, a mid-engine supercar with a quad-turbo AMG V12 and a high pace of 248 mph. It could’ve been perfected for an early-aughts sci-fi flick, however I believe even now the ME 4-Twelve would look proper at house in a contemporary film, particularly one with a futuristic setting. Whereas a few of you additionally picked supercars or different fashions suited to forward-thinking movies, there have been all types of nice solutions from minivans to Malaise-era boats. I’ve rounded up my favourite submissions, which you are actually studying.

Not CGI. Chase an actual F1 with an actual XJ220 utilizing sensible results cowards.

The Thelma & Louise automotive is iconically a 1966 Thunderbird, however that is a really completely different kind of vibe than you are envisioning, so I am going to permit it.

Bear in mind the scene in Days Of Thunder the place the 2 NASCAR drivers are racing to dinner in rental vehicles? A Taurus and a Lumina, IIRC. And they’re THRASHED on the finish.

I might like to see the same scene utilizing first gen Chrysler minivans. Perhaps the situation is a few 80s soccer mothers are racing to get to the college pickup line, and they’re doing the total “rubbing is racing” by way of a suburban neighborhood to a close-by elementary college. They get there, and each of them are simply bashed and steaming.

There have been some nice minivan-led chase scenes through the years, like in “Mr. & Mrs. Smith,” however I might at all times be proud of extra.

I at all times had a imaginative and prescient of an epic automotive chase between the Evo and WRX, that begins within the metropolis bullet fashion, however then takes the chase into the woods on a path, then again to tarmac. We’ll say the Evo X vs the present gen WRX in a Rivals, cat/mouse sort of chase, with the massive dangerous in fact being the Evo, I am going to let the Subaru win in the long run, however my lord it could be epic!

I am considering a brand new James Bond movie the place a foul man (not essentially the kingpin), flees from Bond (possibly with stolen items or essential data?) in a…prepared?… A WRC rally automotive…after which Bond shoves one other driver out of their racecar to chase! Actually–so far as insane viewing pleasure with vehicles, what’s higher than WRC rally vehicles? The sounds, the tight roads full of boulders and timber and cliff edges, JUMPS! that are not phony, in-car views of the drivers insanely sawing on the steering wheel, shifting, yanking on the hand brake? C’mon, Hollywood! That is what we ALL need! It’s, belief me!

I really like the thought of a rally automotive cat and mouse chase.

A giant, fats supply truck like Amazon or UPS. The upright driving place, sliding doorways, cargo maintain filled with ???, massive profile and designed-in sturdiness of the chassis might…ship…a reasonably distinctive bang-em-up chase scene. The scene might finish with some comedian reduction: the victorious Amazon truck involves a screeching halt, then gently reverses away whereas making that synthetic duck noise.

The Rivian van would look nice on display screen, I believe.

A Ferrari 250LM. It could be extra thrilling than the traditional 1976 film ‘Rendezvous’ and the audio can be stellar!

Submitted by: KOZEG

I dunno, for a automotive as stunning because the 250LM I might need to see the entire thing, in contrast to in “C’était un rendez-vous” the place it was filmed on a digital camera mounted to the bumper of a Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9 sedan.

Microcars. Messerschmitt KR200, BMW Isetta, and so on. By way of some tight and twisty areas like by way of buildings.

Peel Tridents! Indoors, up and down escalators, and so on.

Submitted by: Poorsche, AimToMisbehave

An “Italian Job”–fashion microcar chase can be numerous enjoyable.

How about 70’s period land yachts? Nothing higher than watching a ’76 Sedan DeVille try a nook at something over 30mph and never lose its tail… Perhaps I ought to watch extra previous TV exhibits like The Rockford Information.

I second! One in every of my favourite films is “It is a Mad Mad Mad Mad World” primarily as a result of it is a bunch of previous boats and vehicles tooling round the entire time haha. Probably the greatest demolition derbies I have been to, had an entire bunch of M-body Dodges. They had been hilarious! AND, unstoppable. The only survivors had been the M our bodies and one plastic Saturn.

Have 2 of them chase one another, in regular visitors. So the drivers have their foot to the ground, and they’re winding them out, consistently shifting to maintain them within the powerband.

Oh my gosh. An Altima. Make it the star of the entire present too, and the one factor low finances concerning the film is the principle character’s credit score rating. The automotive will get concerned in tons of automotive hijinks. Driving by way of buildings like Deadly Weapon 4, taking out cops Blues Brothers fashion, and leveling a complete metropolis block with irresponsible driving, directed by Michael Bay. I am going to even spoil the ending: this occurs simply on the way in which to the BUY HERE PAY HERE lot the dude picked it up from.
