Have my own copy on DVD, get to watch it a lot.   ;D

Yep, the Great Escape is a good (if not true to story) movie.

Another good McQueen Film is Le Mans, I have  a copy of that also, along with an original Movie poster from the time, begged from the owner of the Star Theatre in Mansfield when i was 17.

Good trivia Question:

How many times does the green VW appear in the chase?

Answer, 4.

It must be faster than all of them:

I got it on DVD, another one of my favorite DVD's is Vanishing point. Took me years to chase a copy up.

What about the Blues Brothers!!!

Mace

It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?

RONIN for sure. It's a shame so many people haven't seen it. If you have, do yourself a favour and grab a copy on blu ray.  A cup of coffee has never been so intimidating ;)
