[Conti94]

How many movies can you name that have Lincolns in them

Goodfellas-1958 Lincoln Mark II(Outside Pauli's)
Cadillac Man-3 cars 89 Continental, 89 Town Car,89 Mark VII(Car Showroom)
Casino-1971-Lincoln Mark III(Pesci's Car)
The Mask-93 Lincoln Continental(Kidnapping Impkiss)
Waynes World-That sweet Town Car Limo(Alice Cooper Concert)
Heat-1995 Town Car (Bank Getaway)
Adams Family Values-92 Town Car Jack Niklaus(Thing is driving it)

That's all that come to mind right now. ;)

[JoshMcMadMac]

The Net with Bullock, had a MarkVII.
And you completely overlooked "The Car" !!!

[Conti94]

OOPS... redface.gif

[92 AZTC]

Don't forget the first Matrix... I believe it had a 1964 or 63' Lincoln Continental :D

[Capt. Zilog]

David Lynch's "Lost Highway" Had a Mark VII on a lift.

Of course, the Lincoln in Starsky and Hutch that Snoop Dogg (I hate even writing that name) drives.

[NYC LS8]

That movie with Jamie Kennedy had one.

And it's not a movie, but Bobby Bacala on the Sopranos drives a VII.

[Kit Sullivan]

'Animal House'? 'The Death Machine'? Ring any bells???

[Nick]

They've been used in a lot of movies. They're easy enough to obtain and relatively cheap. :(

[pro-five-oh]

My post didn't get sent, so here's the short list.

1. '57 Futura concept car, became the original batmobile for the TV show (just in case nobody knew that)

2. 68-71 Mark III in the French Connection (recommended)

3. 70s Mark V in CB4

4. 84-87 Continental in The Apostle (never saw it, they dumped the car in the trailer so I boycotted it ;) )

5. White 1983 Conti in Waynes World. It jammed on the brakes to avoid the Pacer. Same car (more than likely) was used in a chop-shop scene in some action adventure movie with Bruce Willis.

6. 70s Mark IV in the original Gone in 60 Seconds (recommended)


Classiclincolns.com has a good selection of movie Lincolns too. Check it out.

Plenty of TCs in NYPD Blues. :cool:

See what I remember about the SUX in Robo Cop? But it turns out to be an 77 Olds Cutlas.

I don't remember that Martin Short movie. It wasn't the one where he plays a klutz right?

Isn't the French Connection a big car movie? What's the one where the director speeds through Paris in his own Ferrari?

[RJ Sclafani]

3. 70s Mark V in CB4

Most rediculous movie ever!!!

[Nick]

That is very true now that I think about it. Maybe I should have been a lot more specific. :D I was referring to the one where he played detective with Danny Glubber.

[Four Eyed Stangs]

Groundhog Day

TC parked behind Ned Ryerson the insurance salesman scenes.

[Kit Sullivan]

How about the Alanis Morrisette video. She is riding around with three other people(she plays all the passengers in the car) in a dark blue and tan Mark V.

When Pepsi One was first introduced, there was a commercial with Cuba Gooding,Jr. fighting a bunch of Matrix-y looking bad-guys. They drove an all-blacked-out Mark V that was blown to smithereens in the commercial.
As Bob and Doug would say..."It blowed up real good!"

In several episodes of 'Starsky & Hutch', the bad guys drove Mark IVs and Vs.

Good job, Pepsi really should have given me that black Mark V instead of blowing it up. Of course, the bomb didn't do much to the car, all things considered. That commercial was a sad moment in the 1999 Superbowl.

The Depeche Mode song "Dream On" (2000?) had a gorgeous all black custom Mark IV. It was driving in the desert at night...the interior shots were an 80s Coupe Deville, though. I guess those Marks are hard to get a camera and three band members in. smile.gif

[Icarus]

Theres a VII in a lot in Gone in 60 seconds and one on the street too...

[Dereck]

Hi All

Hate to show off but, how about My Black 88 Town Car featured in Eyes Wide Shut with Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman directed by the great Stanly Kubrick, you see it dive past about 8 or 10 times during the film.

Regards

Dereck

[pro-five-oh]

Oh lordy! Now I really gotta see that movie! smile.gif

[JoshMcMadMac]

That's awesome Dereck! How did it come about that your ride got in the movie?

[AceFrehley03]

We all know the answer to that, already.

He sped excessively past all of the guards that we posted to keep the movie scene's location closed off. :D

[Dereck]

Hi Josh

Most(if not all) of Eyes Wide Shut was filmed here in the U.K. the guys I bought my 88 TC from (Dream Cars (http://www.dreamcars.co.uk)) supply cars for film companys to use.

In the film you may also notice a yellow Chevy Caprice and a red Buick roadmaster station wagon parked up in severall scenes, they were also for sale when I bought the TC.

Regards

Dereck

[AceFrehley03]

The '58 Impala Convertible they have is beautiful, along with the '58 Continental Mark III. The Mk. III is the same color as my truck.

[Windstar]

Well, you guys finally made me do it! I've been lurking here for some time without registering. But when I saw that NOBODY had mentioned James Bond's Mark VII LSC in License to Kill, well I just had to get my 2 cents in.

Come on guys, how can Starsky & Hutch come before James Bond??? :confused:

[pro-five-oh]

Man, I am embarrassed that I didn't remember that one.

Welcome aboard, Windstar. smile.gif

[AceFrehley03]

Helluva first post. *Salutes*

[Nick]

Wow! Good memory! Now I too remember that glorious scene. It was a rental car right? I always thought it finally had the attention it deserved for that brief scene. The Aston Martin is one of my favorites too.

[RJ Sclafani]

I just saw One Night at McCools, i love the blue velour on a black oon black TC.

[Bad Guy]

Does anyone remember the MK VIII in "Clockers"?

[CamaroSSBoy346]

cant forget lethal weapon with the TC Limo

And what about that movie with that actor (WTF IS HIS NAME, HE WAS IN FIRE DOWN BELOW :mad: ) But anyways, its starts out with this guy chasing a white TC in his brown Caprice police car

[Bad Guy]

Wasn't that a TC that DeNiro and his crew used to take the bank in "Heat"

[Conti94]

Man great to see so many replies smile.gif
Keep them coming.


The TC in "Heat" is a Charcoal Grey Executive sereis, gets shot up, I have the movie with directors commentary and they said the seen was costly because the getaway car the TC was expensive then. Interesting stuff those commentaries and feature's etc. ;)

[Steve Moran]

In the movie waterworld is a Yellow Lincoln they drive around inside the ship

[waldbaro]

Ed O'Neill drove a silver TC in the movie "Dutch". Don't remember which year.

[LincolnGuy1979]

Here are a few I know of:

1.)"The Junkman" same guy that did the orginal "gone in 60 seconds". there is a 1977 or 1978 Mark 5, white with lt blue int. that gets blown up

2.)"The North Avenue Irregulars", it was a 1978 Walt Disney film. There were two 1977/78 Mark 5's. One was red and the other was tan, the tan one gets totaled in the end with a 1976 Ford Country Squire, a 1967/68 Ford Galaxie drop top, a 1958 Jag, and a few others

3.)"Save The Tiger", it is a 1973 film with Jack Lemmon. He drove a silver with black top Cont' 4-door

4.)"Breezy", this was a 1974 film directed by Clint Eastwood. the main charachter drove a 1972/73 Cont', I think it was met. light blue or silver with a black top also.

Well thats all know that hasent been typed yet on this board.

[CamaroSSBoy346]

Yep, Toby Halaki (sp) played in gone in 60 seconds (have the dvd) and junkman. I also just saw Runaway Jury, when all the gun makers meet the lawyers, they all pull up in black town cars..

[Michael VII LSC/SE]

My Eyes are more Attuned to Autos since this thread. I spotted a possible Mark VII in some no name movie, but I had other priorites at hand.
But this just turned up.

So will we accept TV shows? http://www.automotivemileposts.com/files/mark51979csdoorpanel.jpg

[86er]

here's an older movie that used to pop up on showtime back in the day: the pamela principle or something like that sports a nice lookin mark VII dark blue if remember correctly.

That's from the 1979 Mark V sales brochure...not Magnum PI. ;)

[rj]

90-94 TC in Raising Helen misidentified as a 97. It's being sold in a used car lot by Kate Hudson.

[NYC LS8]

Mark VIII in the beginning of Ricky Martin's "Living La Vida Loca" video.

['cuda]

There is a Mark VII in Malibu's Most Wanted.

[pro-five-oh]

And a wicked dechromed, de-bumpered, and possibly chopped '72 Mark IV in Depeche Modes' video "Dream On". All interior shots were of an 80s RWD Coupe Deville, though.

And lets not forget the blue/tan Mark V in Alanis Morisette's video...can't remember the name. I think it was "Ironic". smile.gif

U guys are forgetting the badest one of all "THE CAR" the George Barris creation! :eek:

I thought it was a Ford, not a Lincoln?!?

[91MochafrostLSC]

AND you guys forgot about the Conti that gets busted into and smashed in the Aerosmith video "livin' on the edge"

[91MochafrostLSC]

YESSS! I finally started a page!

[91MochafrostLSC]

What the hell is up with the flood control posting thingy I've never seen that before?

[Steve Moran]

Flood control is something Post whores know about.
it is there to keep Pro-five-oh under some sort of control.
Heh!Heh! just kidding.


Real need for flood control (http://www.photodump.com/viewer/justcauz/Floodcontrol.html)

[Swinny]

Who was looking at the cars in eyes wide shut????

[Dereck]

Hi Swinny

It was my 88 Town Car that started in Eyes Wide Shut smile.gif

Dereck

[cupcakeslsc]

Mystic River, Clint Eastwoods movie with Kevin Bacon and Sean Penn, when Tim Robbins wife comes out of the house to talk to Sean Penn, 88 BB behind her.

[Arron]

I am almost positive there are Lincolns galore in "Analyze This " and "Analyze That"
My PS2 is hooked up right now so I will have to check the DVD of the first movie later to verify. Oh and I kind of liked the Martin Short movies and the one you are thinking of is "Pure Luck" and Stanley Kubrick was a very twisted indivdual. Still do not understand "Eyes Wide Shut" and I do have a above normal IQ. "OH great isn't that magical," I just set myself up big time. Usually I am too busy pointing all of the BS with the gunplay (drives my wife nuts)to notice cars. But "I can change if I have too, I suppose." HE he he

[bassmastergdc]

90's lsc in The king of New York.

[Kit Sullivan]

I was watching some old movie with Cahrlie Sheen in it the other day, and he was a passenger in a turbo Carrera that was making a get-a-way from 77-79 era Mark V!
Somehow, the Mark was able to keep up with the Porsche for quite a while, dodging and weaving through city traffic.
Many years of driving my 79 Mk-V tells me that there is just no way!(Damn movie editing!)

[88-lincoln]

I'm writing a movie with a black 88 tc. Built up 302 ho, duals basically a sleeper.

Dereck,, NICE JOB with the EYES WIDE SHUT. >>> on my way to rent it>>>

It looked a lot like a 1977 Givenchy, IIRC. It was Green, and I thought it had a chamois top and side trim.

It got hammered by a Dodge pickup, but still chased down the Porsche pretty well. In Hollywood terms, that is. smile.gif

[cason1]

In father of the bride , I think that was the movie, During the wedding when the cops showed up and they had to move the cars, there was a 90's towncar and a mark VII both being parked by the kids. Not sure if there were more as it was on TV last night when I was on lunch break and didn't get to see all of it to watch.

[Swinny]

Don't tell anyone I've seen this movie, but Martin Short rides around in a red TC Limo in "MARS ATTACKS." And my girls were watching the TV show "Sister Sister" and I noticed they went to Chicago on their birthday in a TC Limo.

[pro-five-oh]

The coolest TC Limo was driven by Ali G in Madonna's video for "Music."

The rest of the video had its "merits" too, of course.

[NYC LS8]

Was the Starsky and Hutch movie mentioned yet? Snoop's ride was a 76 Conti.

Oh, and I'm not cruising through all the replies. lol tongue.gif

[pro-five-oh]

Snoop had a 77-79 Conti. ;)

[NYC LS8]

He said it was a 76 in the movie, dammit. Fo shizzle! lol

[pro-five-oh]

And when he did, my blood pressure went up a bit. smile.gif

[NYC LS8]

Oh ok...so they screwed up. Cool. I thought I was losing my mind for a second. LOL

[pro-five-oh]

Not to mention you could tell it was a hooptie with that ghetto paint job. People in the 1970s drove 70s cars that looked new. Because they were new!

Blood pressure rising again... ;)

[AceFrehley03]

Found one!

Ocean's Eleven.

A brand-new Jet Black Town Car carries in Saul's jewels to the casino ("the package") to be locked in the vault.

[DustyLBottoms]

Anyone see Mystery Men?

What are the Disco Boys riding around in?

A big white....something

[luxuryrules]

Resevoir Dogs, an 87 (I think) TC was the getaway car.

[91MochafrostLSC]

I cannot believe that NOBODY has mentioned the Conti that kills the Mercedes from lite to lite in 'Meet the parents'. You guys are slacking on me.

[91MochafrostLSC]

Yessss! Another page started!

[Michael VII LSC/SE]

Yes amazing it could with the tire smoking it was doing! :cool:

[cason1]

Not to mention all the Towncars in the King of New York. There were like a million or something like that. I must have had a thousand orgasms during that movie. The Mark was already mentioned so I won't go on about that one. It was pretty though. And the Sister Sister thing, the father owns a limo service and has several Towncars.

[uugh 91 cont]

ooooh man ... in "DONNIE BRASCO!"AMAZING TC and i think there is also conti.!!!! iam not too sure on the years on those though but cant forget them!! :D

[megaforcer]

Man on Fire has few Town Cars in it. One 2004, one 98 or newer and one like mine, I believe it’s a 94 or a 93. I love that black color on a 94 TC.

[Michael VII LSC/SE]

Las Vegas is advertising their season opener with the explosion of a Blue Mark VII.
So watch Las Vegas and see a Mark VII On NBC TV Monday night. :D

[Michael VII LSC/SE]

And the guy survived!! :D

It was a sun beaten BB judging by the interior. But with red interior?

Oh well still making it in the pictures. :cool:

[Michael VII LSC/SE]

Not sure if it was mentioned in the four pages but I saw a Mark VII parked in front of Hannibal Lecters residence at the beginning of the Movie "Red Dragon"

:D
