Blue Thunder had 1965 GTO as a target...
Bullitt had a 1968 GTO in the chase scenes

I was watching the old Steve McQueen film "The Getaway" the other night and there was a '70 Judge (?) in the background. I found a pic of it on that old website that documents those things... Not sure if it's real though. Something looks funny about the fender badging..Looks kind of like a '455 CID' badge??? It also had a chrome front bumper and the color appears to be more like the '71 color Canyon Copper than any '70 color..

First one from nocturnal animals had a chrome nose. The other one looked pretty good.

My recent favorite GTO movie would be the 69 Judge in the movie "sex drive"

Hilarious movie if you have never seen it. One of those movies that gets funnier the more times
you watch it.

Seth Green shoulda known 400 ram air, but I'll let it slide......

There was a 65 GTO and a 69 GTO in Transformers Age of Extinction.Seen the Sleepless movie trailer a few times on TV. Watch Sex Drive any time it is on and also have the DVD.

Saw what looked like a 72 GTO in the horror movie "The Faculty" driven by the "cool" guy at school.
