There is a TA in Hot Tub Time Machine and in Daywalkers They seem to be popin up every where now. With Hollywood remaking all these 80's movies classics I hope they don't ever get the idea of remaking Smokey and the Bandit, I mean they already hacked Gone in 60 Sec and Vanishing point.

Did anyone see "The Love Guru?" Instead of the normal firebird on the hood, there is a rooster. I was bored and watched it the other day. Don't watch it, total waste of time.

I saw Iron Man 2 as well, but I'm pretty sure it was a Camaro, not a Firebird (either way ir's a little sad). It is the bridge scene.

Great movie. Fantastic sequel, BTW.

I just watched Daybreakers this weekend and they pull out a great looking gold and black '77/'78 Trans Am near the end of the movie.  The guy starts out with an old Mustang and before we can even hear it start up, they shoot it up but in reserve, under a cover is the car of cars!
