Thoughts on the Old BMW Short Films??

[Tru2theBlu]

I was just thinking about how I love car chase scenes/action sequences on Blu, and how amazing the BMW shorts featuring Clive Owen were, even on my laptop! I wish they would come to blu, but I know that would never happen! Anyways, have you guys seen them? What did you think? They had great actors too (Gary Oldman, Clive Owen were in "Beat the Devil but, "Ticker" (Clive Owen, Don Cheadle) is the best for action, and it was awesome!

I thought they were fantastic. I actually have the DVD for the first season of the shorts. I really want to get my hands on the second season DVDs. And Yes "Ticker" was the best by far, it was directed by Joe Carnahan btw. It was an awesome series and I really wish they would have continued it further.

I think you can find them all here although a couple may be missing and they are just youtube so not as good quality:

Where did you get your DVD? Does it sound good on your HT?

I believe that I ordered copy of The Hire from www.bmwfilms.com, however it seems that the site no longer is active. I don't think that they are in print anymore.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THEY HAD RELEASED A SECOND INSTALLMENT?!?!?!

There were two seperate installments. I got my dvd the same way through the website for free actually. And unfortunately it is oop.

I got my BMW Films Series 1 disc directly at a BMW dealership. I walked in with my buddy to get it.

Funny story, we were dressed pretty shabby. I.E. we looked like gang members. The dealer looked at us and told us that the disc was supposed to be with a test drive but he said he would give them to us without having to do that. He asked how many I wanted and I ended up getting three copies.
