Rock Star movie reference

#1 Post by robspace54 »

In the 2001 movie 'Rock Star' Mark Walhberg plays a tribute band member who gets picked to replace the lead of the group "Steel Dragon" after they fire the lead singer.

At one point Chris (Mark W.) and Mats (Timothy Spall) race in a Batmobile recreation "the" Magnum PI Ferrari. Now I just saw about thirty seconds of the movie today on cable and when the hammer is about to drop on the race Chris calls out "let's go Magnum" or something like that.

The Ferrari was actually a 1984 Mondial Cabriolet. see:

Sometimes I get so lucky, even I don`t believe it.
