    It was a nice Commander but the guy called his car. It's not a car, not a truck, not even an SUV. It's a JEEP!

    Stupid movie. A guy in space flying a shuttle stood up and fainted and fell heavily to the floor and then died. Must have had the gravitron activated.

    Those "SyFy original" movies are always so ridiculous haha.

    On another note, it always seems that the XK is used in movies as FBI vehicles, not to mention breaking bad.

    Yup, Breaking Bad... Walter White's DEA agent brother-in-law Hank drove a black Commander. If I remember, in one episode, that XK got shot up pretty bad too.

    On sci-fi movies in general, I love the impossible physics.

    I can't remember the name, but Pierce Brosnan was in something about a volcano. I just remember the scene where they're driving across hot lava in a Chevy Blazer. The tires burn off, and they keep going on bare rims. So... lava's about 2,000 degrees or more to be in a plastic state. That intense heat is not going to rise?!? Maybe you could drive out on a field of flowing lava until you got stuck, but by then A) the engine would die from lack of oxygen and/or excessive intake heat, and B) you'd already be long dead from seared lungs.

    SPEAKING of which, I just discovered that the Boro neighboring us, has a silver Commander for a municipal vehicle. I think the boro building inspector uses it!
