antp ◊ 2006-12-26 22:05	From the title & poster I would also expect 5-star rating.
wickey ◊ 2006-12-26 22:17	well I see now on imdb, that Ford Fairlane is the main dudes name - that is something like Harley-Davidson and the Marlboro Man - we did not gave 5 stars to HD there... I am taking my previous comment back
antp ◊ 2006-12-26 22:30	Hmmm I didn't see that either
valiant1962 ◊ 2006-12-26 23:34	Yes, Ford Fairlane is the name of the Character. The car was ALMOST a 5 star, but not quite Also IMDB claims the car destroyed was not a real 57 Skyliner, but a fibreglass copy. -- Last edit: 2006-12-26 23:40:09
