Have any Falcon's appeared in movies before?

I'm talking more the E series, AU, B series or FG?
Would be thinking more an FPV such as a GT or something like that. Just out of interest.

Two EF Falcons got blown up in Mission Impossible II.

Check out Internet Movie Cars Database

Note that alot of the images are of American and Argentinian Falcons from various international films.

I bought some movie called "The Chase is On" with some late model muscle.

I'll be nice and just say.... Ummm, not quite "Running on Empty".

[fordfreak]

Thanks that's interesting.
What do you think this one is? Those wheels almost look like Azzurro's. not sure what happens about the passenger window? Looks like a ute, but replaced with a panel. maybe its a limo or something.

An AU Fairlane bites the dust in "Swerve"....

[fordfreak]

just read this "Class: Cars, Funeral —"
So it's obviously a hearse.

"Mad Max", as mentioned....c'mon we need to post it!

The 'Wog Boy' had an nf fairlane limo in it, also had an AU cop car too.

I seem to remember the sci-fi movie "Fortress" (1992, Christopher Lambert) filmed in Australia but set in the USA had a lineup of cars at a road block at night. The cars close to the camera were mostly Ford Capri convertibles (as Ford was making LHD ones), but the cars further from the cameras were, I think, EA Falcons with misted windshields so you didn't see the steering wheel location.

I also remember the police cars in the original "Punisher" movie starring Dolph Lundgren, again filmed in Australia, were nearly all CL and CM Valiants, but I think there may have been a Falcon or two in there. Once again, no close ups so you could see the steering wheel location, but in the background of a street scene you could see the old "CES" (Commonwealth Employment Service) sign prominently visible.

More EA Falcons are visible in the street scene in front of the Daily Planet in the first of the rebooted Superman movies (where Superman stops the Daily Planet rooftop globe falling on people in the street below...he sets it down on the roof of a Volvo.)

Fast and furious should include an f6 in their next release....

The big steal, had a ZL Fairlane in the forecourt of the car dealership with a big 'V8 Power' sign plastered across the windscreen............ Shame the ZL never had a V8!

Death race 2 has a few el's both falcon and fairmont. Was a suprise when watching to see them.

Hearse, with BA Ghia stuff on it, and 17" AU Elegance Ghia wheels.

Jackie chan movies over here saw plenty of falcons .

[Road_Warrior]

Im pretty sure in one of the Generation Kill episodes there is an XY (filmed in South Africa where XYs were sold)

[Shonky.]

2 Hands had a nice hardtop in it

[malazn mafia]

Fat pizza had an episode sporting a nice purple BA xr6t. Did a mean burnout in a car park and proceeded on road trip to Canberra and Melbourne and it broke down half way lol

When Toadie's girlfriend / wife went off the cliff in Neighbours I think she was in a Fairlane limo.

[warpsp33d]

In some high rating movie from a few years ago (I can't remember which one), I think Nicolas Cage runs through an underground car park, and runs straight past a Territory. Didn't even know the movie was made in Australia till I saw that.

Sorry bloke, but that was a green VC Commodore wagon. That was actress madeline west who's character was killed off.

Pains me to say I remember it that well......

[Spammy]

^^ thanks for the correction...for some reason I thought she was in a Fairlane for the lead up but the actual car that went off the cliff was a $200 wrecker special that was something else.

And yes- very sad that you remember it that well

[Yellow_Festiva]

Was it Godzilla that was shot in Sydney and had scenes with falcons painted yellow like NY cabs?

[Moby Vic]

Two Hands has a sweet hardtop.

Not theatrical movies, but the TV movie Blue Murder and the Underbelly series have plenty of Falcons.

[XR27]

Blue murder was full of xd's
