smart in the movies

5 posts in this topic

We saw Babylon A.D. the other night. Not a great movie but good action flick. Like porn for action addicts, LOL. Great chase scenes, guns and violence, sexy chick and tough guy, y'know, formula, set in a post apocalyptic world, seeking asylum in paradise, blah blah.Well anyway, in New York one of the plentiful cars around town was a smart. Dozens of them with both panels and cell painted industrial orange. Not neon, more taxi-like. Didn't indicate in any way what the purpose of the vehicles were, they were just part of the scene.I loved that they thought smart cars would make it all the way to the end of our century with the current styling, LOL.

We have seen the movie too, not the best movie we have seen lately, but to our surprise the Smart car was in it.

If you have ever seen XXX with Vin Diesel back in 2002 you will see one parked in the night streets of Russia.

Were they 450 models in the Babylon A.D. movie, or 451 models? Curious since it was probably filmed several months ago before 451 models hit our shores.A friend of mine was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in December 2007 and saw a film set for a futuristic movie that had several smart cars in it. I'll have to ask her if they were "industrial orange". She thought the name of the movie was going to be something like "The Game". Since I have not seen Babylon A.D., are you sure the city setting was New York, or possibly could it have been Milwaukee? Granted that CGI may have been used to recreate the background.Tom
