Two of the best movies of the last 30 years.
No argument here. Loved both.

Off the top of my head I can think of:

LeMans (Steve McQueen)
As much for the opening sequence as the race scenes




Harper (Paul Newman)






Bullitt (McQueen)




Mission Impossible 2 (Tom Cruise)

Jeff who lives at home - Although it is a 987, I thought of my 986 with the hardtop.

Looks like a movie Johnny Danger had a hand in writing the script for!

The Rookie (1990) - Porsche 928 (and others)...

Also (not a movie, but...)

Last season's finale of "The Arrow" ended with the Arrow and his girlfriend driving away in a 911...

Not a favorite or anything, but I was up late watching Walk Tall and noticed that there is a scene where The Rock pulls over a bad guy in a Boxster and smashes the tail lights with a 2x4.

"Sir, get your tail lights fixed"
"What's wrong with my tail lights?"

Not a boxster, a 911

Another movie: Taken 3, the final chase is with a 996

Two of the deepest and most erudite movies ever.

Cannonball Run: 1969 911




And Cannonball Run II: 1978 928

Vintage 911 driven by Matthew McConaughey in "failure to launch"

I will always remember the 964 turbo in Bad Boys though...so mean looking.
