well, if anybody is looking for a good reason to watch the reasent action movie "Taken" i've got one for you. A little ways into the movie there is a bada** chase scene in which the hero is in France trying to save his daughter and he hops into a white XJ to make his escape from the Albanians. In the chase the jeep outruns a Mercedes SUV and (what i believe to be) a 4door mitsubishi pick up truck. It survives loads of machine gun fire from the two chase vehicles and ultimately gets him away so he can go save his daughter. Go jeep!

So this got me thinking, is there any other awesome hollywood cherokee scenes?

 

xx has a scene with it

 

yeah when i saw taken i was like HECK YEAH!!!! go XJ's!!

I almost made a thread about this the other day, but for the Newer Rollerball movie and this beast.

That link is sweet!!!!!

 

Jeeps are in so many movies. They're an american icon

 

thanks for the great info!! got any movies with specifically cool XJ scenes?

 

Goonies.

 

were you able to find the scene on youtube or anything? i'd like to see it....and looking back on this thread i wanna say sorry to zachsXJ i was unnecessarily sarcastic with my comment i can't really remember why now lol it was back in january.

 

cast away. tom hanks drives a 97+ cherokee.. the goonies is the best though. a high speed chase, gun fire, and a chubby little kid freaking out. "can life get any better? i submit it cannot"-Brian Reagan

 

The British movie Eden Lake has an xj in it quite a lot:

thats a good one, tons of xj action just in the trailer

 

Don't forget the beach rally where the xj kicks *** in the goonies
