Third Gen Camaro in the Movies
I just seen the movie "National Security" with Martin. In the movie he has a black camaro, looks to be early 80s. Doesnt look to bad, well until they kill it with a machine gun anyways.
Oh yeah, it was a pretty funny movie if anyone is thinking about seeing it.

You also did notice that when they show the inside shot of the door, it's unlocked because you can see the orange part of the door, yet he is trying to get his keys out of it........
I just laughed.....
BTW great movie......

*shrug* This just reminded me of last spring when I was asked for my IROC to be used in a music video. Unfortunately it was shortly before relocating to europe so I was just too busy packing up everything in our apartment, plus I was in IL at the time while the video shoot was in Texas two days later.....
Oh, well...

i know pacino did, dunno about val...the teal one was a third gen, it was in the scene where they exited the bank and the getaway driver was killed and they were trying to make thier way down the street. The thing was lookin pretty decent...then the rear glass was shattered out and by the time bullets stopped flying it looked like crap
i'm thinkin we're gonna have to come up with a video..collage of cars in movies....
anybody know any songs that mention camaros? i know pearl jam sang one, dead milkmen sang bitchin camaro, and irocs are mentioned in "teenage dirtbag" by whoever the hell sang it...

I didnt notice any 3rd gens in the movie HEAT. I do remember that white early 90s Corvette that Val Kilmer drove. Probably with the LT1 engine, it looked awesome.

I cant remember what movie it was but Charlie Shean was a porshe thief and he was persued by a blue 82-84 Z28 with t's that evenutually got fliped and destroyed.
Another one that I cant remember was from 87-89 where these kids opened a gate to hell in thier back yard. A frined of their older sister had a 87-89 GTA.
Gosh theres so many more movies that had 3rd gens in it but I cant remember the names

theres a song, doesn't mention particular cars, but in the beggining the motor reving sounds alot like my buddys camaro. lol. good song all about fast cars, "wheels of fire" by Manowar.
Teenage Dirtbag, good song, once again the bad guy drives an f-body.
Oh and in the movie Blade blade drives a bad *** custom camaro. not sure if it's in both movies or just the second one. i'm pretty sure both though.

Back in early '91, Great White featured a black w/blue stripe 1990 IROC-Z, with T-Tops in their video Once Bitten, Twice Shy. As well as some hot chicks.

GTATransAM - no, it's a white 4thgen kilmer drives and the 3rd gen is after the getaway driver is shot and they go walkinging and firing down the road toward a police baricade with AR15/M16's..you only see a quick flash of the front, the rest is from the back because kilmer or paccino (can't remember which) take cover behind it and shoot over it...
and where in blade did he drive a camaro? i've seen both and i only remember blade driving a charger/challenger...the same one they totalled out in TF&TF...

There was another segal movie. He was a brooklyn cop, chasing some mafia guy. The mafia guy drove a red IROC. That was a lil too steroetypical, ya think? At leasy they didnt have ******s.
Oh and Next of Kin with Patrick Swayze. I think a blue Z? And every time he drove away it sounded like he was getting on it cause the tires always screeched.

I just watched a movie on Encore last night called "Band of the Hand" with nobody famous in it.
They were juvies that were put on a special assignment to get rid of drug dealers. They refurbished this old building, and while they were standing in the road admirring their work, a grey Firebird (82-84) drove by and had the black steel 'nugget' wheels on it.
It was a 1-2 second shot, but I noticed it right away (thanks to you guys )

Oh, and my friend shot a movie a year and a half ago and if my T/A would have been running it would have been in it. Instead, I was driving my old 4th Gen Camaro in the movie.
