carobserver  | we need another contribution with several more Crown victoria taxis?.........   -- Last edit: 2011-06-28 21:22:14 |
2011-06-28 21:21 |
Sandie  | Because if we banned people from uploading films that had Crown Victorias in them we would have hardly any films we could list? | 2011-06-28 21:25 |
ingo  | The answer is: /vehicles_make-Ford_model-Crown+Victoria.html If we would have some nerds for the IMNewYorkTaxiNumberDb, yes. There could be a realistic chance, that they will find the same -authentic- taxi with the same -authentic- number, maybe the same -authentic- driver in two or more movies. At 105 pages!! for one!!! model it's probable.  |

| carobserver | Must be limitated just one crown Victoria taxi per movie or tv serie..... Many people are sick and tired to see those cars |
2011-06-28 21:27 |
| ingo | These movies with Crown Victorias are expendable. Nearly all were filmed in Manhattan - notoriously a location with a real small variety of cars. When we want to have US-movies with real interesting cars, especially hyperrare random background-catches, California, especially San Francisco is recommended. |

| ingo |  Salute! |

G-MANN  | I told him to group it with the other one, it was in the same episode after all. Surely you've noticed Crown Vics are used as taxis and police cars all over America?  As your "we may have listed the same one twice a few times" comment, how many of these cars do you think have been sold over the last 13 years? -- Last edit: 2011-06-28 21:46:25 |
2011-06-28 21:42 |
| ingo | Sure I did - but the majority of them IS from N.Y. | 2011-06-28 21:46 |
| G-MANN | Alright maybe not the majority of them but quite a large percentage. | 2011-06-28 21:48 |
| G-MANN | I get sick of seeing terrible direct-to-video films that I'm never going to watch added to this site but it's not my place to say |
2011-06-28 21:50 |
| ingo | A large percentage of 105 pages, which means 3150 cars (30 per page) is way too much in every case, despite how big this percentage is exactly. |
2011-06-28 21:55 |
| G-MANN | Maybe they should make less films in New York |
2011-06-28 21:56 |
| ingo | A question of money - the N.Y. City Council is encouraging it, with less costs for filming on public streets than in other towns. Though N.Y. is a fascinating town with many great, worth to see places, the saturation point for movie-location is surpassed since years. For us, car-in-movies-spotter-freaks, there are very different US-movies much more interesting, with regard to the cars: these hyper-low-budget, in gravel-pits and -especially!- junkyards filmed trash-movies. Sure, painful to see - but generously we have stronghold and Jale, who are doing that for us .gif ":)") |

| G-MANN | Recently I watched a very good documentary called Paul Merton's Birth of Hollywood, and it seems New York was the real birthplace of cinema in America. | 2011-06-28 22:12 |
| ingo | This is true - but doesn't changed the fact, that since the early 90ies, since New York was cleaned up, there is a big, too big flood of movies and series, made there. | 2011-06-28 22:14 |
| G-MANN | Why is that a bad thing? It's more interesting than most American cities. | 2011-06-28 22:19 |
chicomarx  | Paul Merton's series barely scratched the surface, this is much better: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080230/ | 2011-06-28 22:22 |
| G-MANN | You've seen it? Did you use BBC iPlayer? Anyway he only had 3 episodes but I enjoyed it. | 2011-06-28 22:24 |
| chicomarx | iPlayer doesn't work outside the UK, I've tried it before. BBC2 & 4 and FilmFour is really the only tv I watch. (They're free-to-air sat channels) Mark Gatiss' A History of Horror was a lot more interesting too. |
2011-06-28 22:54 |
| Gomselmash11 | Agree with the ingo and carobserver comments. PD: and about the places of the movies... the house of the movie "Esperando la carroza" (/movie.php?id=89108): Link to "24con.elargentino.com" -- Last edit: 2011-06-29 04:50:09 |

Ford_Guy  | Are you trying to say that the majority of the CVs on the site are from productions filmed in NYC? Because if so then you are way off. Crown Victorias, as G-MANN said, are the most common vehicles on the site for obvious reasons. Just because they bore some of you doesn't mean we should stop listing them. Since when was the sole goal of the site to list interesting cars only? The purpose of the site is to document all visible-enough vehicles in movies and TV shows, no matter how interesting or uninteresting they may be found to be. In all honesty, I don't understand the problem. There are many vehicles on the site that I don't like and that I see constantly, but in the end it doesn't bother me since that's what the site is for. |
2011-06-29 04:53 |
| antp | I prefer lots of Crown Victoria than lots of off-topic comments, personally When vehicle listing will be improved, these will be easier to sort properly (at least separate different versions) They are very common in real life and in movies, it is then normal to have lots of these on the site... |
2011-06-29 17:46 |
| ingo | @antp: sure, they are very common - but isn't it the most appealing detail of the IMCDb-idea to find uncommon rarities? | 2011-06-29 20:56 |
| Gomselmash11 | Agree |
2011-06-29 20:59 |
| ingo | IMO it's not off-topic to point out the reality, that there is too much on-topic stuff? Over 3000 cars, from just one single model, from only a very few MY (so different than the VW Typ1), this is definetely too much. |
2011-06-29 21:00 |
| ingo | Definetely. Indeed the most interesting city - but it's becoming too much. I guess, every single Street in Manhattan is somewhere to find here. The Avenues are for sure dozens/hundreds of times here. | 2011-06-29 21:03 |
| Ford_Guy | But that is a focus of the site as well. I'd understand your guys' point a bit more if the large list of Crown Victorias detracted from having rarer/more "interesting" cars, but in all honestly I really don't understand why it bothers you guys so much. They are listed along with every other vehicle that has a role or is seen at least a bit in a production, whether you find them interesting or not. And of course, there is the definition of interesting, which will vary from person to person. |

| Gag Halfrunt | No location information on the IMDB yet, but message board posts say it's filmed in Canada. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1713938/board/nest/172985234 |
2011-06-30 13:13 |
| antp | Indeed. It is not because there are many of them that we should avoid listing them. Except for the "background not worth listing", but that applies to any common car, not just those very highly common like this one. |

| rtsbusman1997 | Well, those crappy movies have some some pretty damn good cars. I watch many crappy movies just for the cars. |
2011-07-06 01:49 |
| Sandie | I agree. Regardless of the artistic merits of the program/movie in question I like to watch things that have interesting/rare cars in them or at the very least cars I like. Sadly, most of the time I end up making screenshots for stuff that I enjoy or I can buy cheaply. |
2011-07-06 01:56 |
| rtsbusman1997 | Same here  . |
2011-07-06 03:19 |
| ingo | Thanks to the alert IMCDb-community this is not neccessary any more! Someday there will be someone, who's doing that painful work for you |

| rtsbusman1997 | Al least to me, it's not that bad. If you know how to live here, its not that hard to enjoy it here. To be fair, Crown Vics as a whole (some do get exported from time to time) are VERY common, cheap, and easy to fix and destroy. I'm pretty sure the Vic, even through it stopped production a few months ago, will always be there in some shape or form. |

| ingo | An absolute great destination for travelling and sightseeing, but living there completely, would't be attractive to me. |
2011-12-10 19:07 |
movie star  | I agree, also with your statement on living in New York. Even when considering the crime rates, I would still rather live in New York than in Romania. And the CV is a very useful car. Nice luggage space, a lot of leg room and quite safe. I heard that the Caprice was/is even better, but Chevrolet discontinued it way too early. Personally I do find it a shame that the future NY will no longer have full-size cars serving as cabs, the NY cabs are pretty iconic. |

Lateef  | He didn't swear the least bit. The word shit is not a swear-word in my language, just a word to describe something. | 2011-12-11 15:46 |

| ingo | In view of the architecture, New York is in fact one of the only North American towns, where the architecture is worth to mention and to visit. Except N.Y. it's only San Francisco and New Orleans. All other US-towns are just faceless conglomerates of buildings with out any own style. You ignore the different ages of the European and American towns. Several centuries, even milleniums ( http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_historischer_Stadtgr%C3%BCndungen ) ren't comparable with sometimes not even 150 years  Somewhere I still have a travelling-brochure from New Zeland. I kept it, because the name "Exotic Europe" for one tour is so funny. It includes, München, Heidelberg, Salzburg, Vienna, Bratislava and Prague  Maybe it would be an apart suggestion to show some "exotic natives" to the Kiwi-tourists. We have some aboriginals from that area even at IMCDb. @wickey, @m.pfaffeneder, @movie_star et al.: feel free to show us your tribal culture Maybe some courtship rituals for the beginning  |
2011-12-11 17:08 |
| ingo | Well, not only in the medias. In other parts of the daily life, too. For example in the insurance business, where me and my wife are working. |
2011-12-11 17:10 |
| ingo | Well, in Germany sometimes you can hear the opinion "The Balkan begins in Austria" Even a bit more often in the last months... |

| ingo | About Romania I cannot say much, because I've not been there yet, but I agree with the last statement. Sure, the USA, at least whole America are great and fantastic travel destinations - but there are too many smaller and bigger disturbing factors in the political and even more in the daly life, that personally I'm very happy to live, where I live. My wife became a big Canada-fan in our last vactions, she can imagine to really live there. I told her the same, as about her other favourite Scotland: "Sure, a wonderful location. But I could only live here, when we would have our solid brick- and concrete made house with real rooftiles there and not this wood-shelf-stuff with bituminous schindels. And our old-style working-contracts, our cars, or washing machine, our kitchen oven, our bed, our TV-programmes, our bathroom equipment, our electrical equipment, our bread, our beer, our cheese, our wurst, our chocolate, etc.pp" |

| ingo | @movie star: my Balkan-comment is meant more in the political meaning, with the corruption scandals and so .gif ";)") |
2011-12-11 19:18 |
| ingo | It's not racism, just a fact, that the criminal gangs, specialized in burglaries, pickpocketing, and other thefts are coming from Romania, teached and ruled in commando-style. Yes, the most of them are Gipsies, but as they have often Romanian passports, they are seen as Romanians. In the 90ies there were ressentiments about the car-theft-gangs, but this became less, since the Polish economy went up the last years. The East German didn't like to hear, that in fact there are several areas in Poland, which are wealther than many East German counties. |
