I love the movie Gone in 60 Seconds (2000) but im not a big fan off the ultra fake car chase scenes,, the more realistic the car chase the better, i didn't like the fake jump the bridge scene,, thats why i voted for bullitt, the chase is more realistic in bullitt,,
same thing with another example would be the orginal "the italian job" the car chase was nice, while in the new movie the chase was over done,,, still a nice movie though,, basicly they should keep the chase as realistic as possible

Yeah. I am not liking the more fake car chases or ones that last 30 minutes or longer. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img] You just can't ignore that sweet sound of the mustang in Bullitt.

I voted for Bullitt cause it was real, I'm really hoping for a Bullitt remake as long as they don't mess it up. They might as well not do it if they aren't going to do a good job.

Bullit Rules. The original Gone in 60 seconds was great too. I am getting tired of remakes though.

Out of those, Bullitt is my favorite... and please, PLEASE, no more remakes!!! It would be awful to see it without Steve McQueen. Any one playing Bullitt will never be as good as McQueen.

I rented both Gone in 60 Seconds (2000) and Bullitt and I keep my vote. The Bullitt chase was okay but it needed more action. As for GI60S, the was more action than I expected [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen.gif[/img] Also, whoever saw Bullitt, help me out in understanding the end. Im super [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/headscratch.gif[/img] .

Bullitt. Hands down. The sound of the Charger (and the Stang) is just... indescribably awesome.

Gone in 60 Seconds (2000) is my favorite, but Bullit is still a classic.

I wouldn't mind a remake of Bullit, but it has to be done right, and that includes a chase between a Mustang and a Charger.

Can't see the poll options anymore, but my vote goes to the classics, like "The Italian Job" (1969) and "Bullitt".

The original Gone in 60 seconds is really good, sometimes they play it on the Speed Channel...worth your time to watch it.

I still believe Bullitt set the standard for car chase scenes.

I hate to be blasphemous, but i like two movies that feature Dodges.
Dirty Mary Crazy Larry and Vanishing Point. They are not movies that feature a car chase, but rather 90 minute car chases that have a story pasted around them.

Although, no one is as cool as McQueen.

Those are two great chase movies...I have not seen them lately. I may have to buy the DVDs if I can find them.
