TR's in movies

[NCTyphoonKid]

There was a newer action/drama TV show that had one, I don't know the name of it, but it had some guy driving it, and a V8 sound was dubbed in.

i think it was the show "life" on nbc

Stargate SG-1

Season 1, episode 13, "Fire and Water". The one where the team goes off-world and they come back after they think Daniel gets killed. Watch for the scene where MacGyver (oh wait, wrong show) is in the driveway hitting some balls. Looks like the car behind him is a GN. Also, a bit later it shows a outside scene of Daniels old office and it looks like the car setting along the street. You see it for a total of 5 or 10 seconds all together I think. I should put the disc in and grab some screenshots...

I think that I read somewhere that Col. O'Neil (sp?) drives one in that series. I just picked up seasons one and two for $19 each at Wally World.

"Rescue Me" two seasons ago: Denis Leary is calling his brother(?) and brother was washing a GN while on the phone.

Alien vs. Predator the new one. One of the kids drives it.

I just watched an old movie with my family, "Crocodile Dundee II". In it there is a scene about 15 minutes into the movie where the drug lord kills a man. They arrive at drug farm in a '78-80' turbo regal and shoot the man while standing infront of the car. The car is silver-gray and it looks like a burgundy interior. It doesn't show a close-up and it is hard to tell exactly what it is but the power-bulge hood is clearly shown. At first with the two headlights I wasn't sure that it wasn't a turbo MC. But a MC's hood bulge is off center I think and the driver's door was smooth with no body lines like the MC. I don't think the Riv' came with a power bulge so I'm pretty sure it is an actual "Before Black" sighting. I've never heard this movie mentioned before as having a TR so, am I the first?

Thanks for the links Korey. The one in Croc Dundee looks like it has a designer paint scheme.

Where did you find that on what celebrities used to own or do own?

I would have never thought Bill Bixby owned a Typhoon. He obviously didn't have it long as he died of cancer in November 1993. (RIP)
