Ducati's In The Movies...

Discussion in 'Ducati General Discussion' started by DucatiChic, Feb 27, 2015.

  1. I was watching Tron earlier (besides him being sexy, had to see the bike scene) which got me thinking of all the times Ducati has been in a movie. I'll start the list with my favorites and others csn add to it...

    #1 Tron
    #2 The Italian Job
    #3 The Expendables
    #4 Speed 2: Cruise Control
    #5 Fast 5 (love her attitude too!)
    #6 Matrix Reloaded
    #7 Blade II
    #8 Taxi
    #9 Freaky Friday
    #10 Exit Wounds

    I didn't know about the movie "Fled" till my ex showed it to me one time. Both Fled and Speed 2 drive me crazy for what they do to those poor Duc's...should be a crime!!!


    Ok...who else can add to this list? :cool:
     
  2. It's not a film but a tv series
    Arrow uses one and he is fit

  4. Mission impossible is the one that sticks in my mind and another Film with Cruise, Knight & Day.
     
  5. Jason Statham had a D16RR in one of his many films, can't think what it was called.

  6. ^^^ The expendables I think as below was mentioned on Youtube

    "2008 Ducati Desmosedici #1147 of 1500. The actual bike that was in the movie "The Expendables" and was personally owned by Jason Statham. Improvements: DMP Rear Turn Signals"

  8. I havent seen Fled for ages, but if i remember rightly, isnt that the one where they dubbed over the lovely V-twin noise with some high rev`ing 4 cylinder bike instead and have it changing gears every 2 seconds?
     
  9. Fled was actually hysterical for the bike chase, where a truck with about 60bhp was keeping up with the bikes being pinned.
     
  10. There was a good article in Ducati's Redline magazine earlier this year that had a whole load of them in...

  11. Antonye: Do you know if it was January issue? I'd love to read it.
     
  12. Wall Street - Money Never Sleeps ( Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (2010) - IMDb )

    utter rubbish compared to the original Wall Street, but includes several minutes for a completely unnecessary race on Ducatis about half way through, if I remember rightly.

  13. Recidivist: Agreed on utter rubbish. Preferred the original.
     
  14. Not a movie but a tv show. Holby City and the ginger doc Jack Nailer , strange girl, used to ride a 1098 into work .
     
  15. It says "01/2014" on it.
    Not sure if you can still get it through a dealer but try their App as you should be able to get it on there.

  17. ChrisW....awesome clip, thanks for posting! I forgot about 'I am Number 4' THAT MOVIE ROCKED! *laughs* Hot chic on a hot bike, doesn't get better than that. Favorite line from that movie... "Red Bull is for pussies" :punch: :Woot:
     
  18. Bettes: The Covenant! *laughs* See my mind is going with old age! That movie was sweet too but I'm a sucker for blondes (Taylor Kitsch before Lone Survivor, Battleship and Savages)...some nice affects too. I'd like to stop being such a girl and ride when it raines but I admit I would sob like a baby if my bike(s) ever went down. Just an inner fear, just like I don't ride in snow. I know there are people who say there is "never a bad riding day, just bad riding gear"...I am NOT that much of a die-hard. I'd say I am a fair-weather rider for sure. I know too many people who have bit the dust, most got up but some did not. I got 2 teenage boys, I need to stick around for a while. Snow is crazy to ride in...ESPECIALLY where I live. Tourists are bad enough on the road when you have an SUV, a bike would be suicide in the mountains here. I digress... thanks for reminding me of The Covenant...I plan to watch that and the Expendables this weekend while studying for mid-terms and staying in out of the snow. We have been getting hammered all week in Colorado and suppose to more this weekend.

    Though I have to say I am REALLY hoping to travel to Austin (Texas) for the 2nd week in April. Ducati is going to be there and its an opportunity to mingle and make good business contacts.
