Default Poll: The Informant!

I have not heard much feedback from this (often quite opinionated...) crowd on the movie THE INFORMANT! starring my C4 and co-starring Matt Damon. So, I thought I would post a Poll to get some data and feedback.
Just curious. And I have rather thick, caloused skin, so you won't affect me one bit with your opinions.

I haven't had time to see a movie in the theater. I'll watch it when it comes out on satellite.

It is in my Netflix queue.

Maybe your 964 will make it into the Internet Movie Car Database

It was just OK. About what I expected.

I'm curious, how were you approached for the use of your car in a major motion picture?

Yup, that's a genuine unauthorized video of me, my car, my house, after completion of the excellent detailing.
(just kidding a bit, I told Mike from Drivendetail that he could use some pics in his advertising.)

I have a 5 and 3 year old...so if it isn't Disney, then it isn't in my movie schedule.

Unless it goes onto the movie channel after the kids are in bed.

We went and saw it a few weeks ago, I think the second week of release. Your car sure came and went!

Lots of story and characters to cram into a couple of hours.

Do you think this will (positively) affect the values of our car?

Try having a three year old (ok so she's almost four) AND a two year old. Then you have no social or $3x life either. At this point, the closest thing for me is a clear twisty road on the way home from work.

Movie looks good. I'll see it when it comes out on demand. Hopefully it will raise some awareness on our cars and have a positive effect on values.

Default The Informant! - out on DVD on Tuesday, 23-Feb

Be sure to pick up your own personal copy of The Informant! starring a spiffy red 964 C4, before they sell out.
We are planning a Red Carpet premiere event, with photographers on hand to take pictures with the star.

Darrell, it was only on very limited release at cinemas over here which unfortunately meant it did not make it to my local cinema. Now waiting to buy the DVD
