    I don't watch much TV, but a few days ago I was bored. I found that we catch a channel called "This", that plays old movies. There was a movie on called Highway Patrol. The police cars were 1955 Buick Century's.

    My 73 Riviera was in Semi-Pro in a few different scenes. There was also a silver 68 Riv and a 70 Riv (White, I think).

    How about the current Orkin commercial with the green skylark and the cockroach driving and lighting up the tires!

    Im watching Invincible with Mark Wahlberg and thought I would try and point out all the buicks throughout the movie:

    1971 GS being pushed off the street right in the beginning.

    1962 Buick when they are playing a pick-up game of football right after the October 7th game. (still withing the first 7 minutes of the movie.)

    The same 71 GS previously mentioned is shown right after Wahlberg gets tackled.

    1970 GS when he goes for a run under the bridge (the car is blue)

    1971 GS convertible when he is running on the sidewalk in the same scene has the blue 70 is shown.

    The same 71 GS convert is shown passing by the line of strikers.

    A 70 GS\skylark passes by the practice field as coach Vermil (spelling) takes a drink of water.

    And thats all i got for now. First day of football practice.

    In the beginning of "Sasquatch Mountain" (within the first 15 minutes thankfully) there is a real nice 66 Wildcat GS parked in front of the dinner and also at a small service center. Only a few seconds but I saw it:laugh: .
    The movie was on the Sci-Fi channel a few weeks ago,my 2 boys yelled for me to come see it.

    I was watching part of The Fugitive the other day. Shortly after his escape, while he was walking along some road, Harrison Ford got picked up by a lady driving a 73 or 74 Regal/Century 2 door. I am not all that familiar with those years.

    Watched "Armored" yesterday. There's a nice looking Riviera in the first half of the movie, I think its a 72? (Sorry, I know 68-9 skylarks and GS's better than the Rivs.) On the plus side, it didnt get trashed either! Very good looking car.
