Cool - thanks Daz. Never seen that site before - Police Academy?!! Cool!


I love the Ashes to Ashes comments too!

One I noticed before but never saw mentioned in threads like this is the movie Shallow Hal. There's a scene where Jack Black is driving along, and you see a multi-story car park out the drivers window as he passes it by - there's a DMC parked facing out in that multistorey! It's only there for a few frames - I don't have it on DVD to get a screen capture.

Remember seeing The DMC 12 in the Rocky 3 video for the first time. I was a bit shocked first to see it so soon after the factory closed, but not surprise. As I knew it would turn up some day on Video or Film but not as a Star. :)

I managed to get 2 screen grabs of the DMC I spotted in Shallow Hal - it's at around the 28 minute mark:

Pic 1 - fairly clear just before he passes it:

Pic 2 - just after passing it, you can sort of see it behind his shoulder!

Overall it's only there for about a second - probably the most obscure and insignificant scene a DeLorean was ever in!

:D

Very good! Quite worrying that you were able to spot that though! :D

I find it more worrying that you posted this at 10.25pm during the Ireland match John! You must have been the only man not watching it! :o :shock: :P
