This may be hard to understand, but what if someone were to want to search for vehicles by their star ratings? For example, I want to see all the 5 star rated cars on this site. Other people may want to see only 4 star, 3 star 2 or 1 star cars. Just an idea.

To get all vehicles starting with 5 stars.

Search -> Search this vehicle -> Sort by importance/roll

You will get 4279 pages of answers though :grin:

Okay, I'm still a bit confused about how to rate some of the vehicles I've submitted. While some seem obvious, there are others that play somewhat more of a role than being a background vehicle, but aren't always driven. There really should be spolier tags for what I'm about to type next.

One example is in Psycho Beach Party(2000):
http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_145670-Oldsmobile-88-1955.html

A young couple makes out in a drive-in theater. The boy leaves to buy a pack of condoms. While the girl waits, a mysterious hand reaches in and slashes her throat. A supprting character discovers her body.


Then, there's Ginger Ale Afternoon(1989):
http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle.php?id=101572

The activities in the bus in that movie can be described below;

but you can rest assured this is Yeardley Smith's first true adult role.



Stunt vehicles that replicate others(somewhat) but are shown briefly for the purpose of being destroyed, like older versions of B.A. Baracus' van on "The A*Team" older versions of Colt Seaver's pickup on "The Fall Guy" and this:

There are some others I had questions about, but I forgot what they were.

there is a [spoiler] tag :wink:

For cars in which character go but which are not driven, 2 star is ok (it could even be 3 if the car is seen a lot / for a long time in several scenes).

About the last one, I am not sure... what happens exactly with that one?

It gets smashed by a tree. Before that, it's a totally different car driven by a supporting character.

If the crash is visible maybe 2 stars... else 1.

Then either I'm going to have to wait until it's shown in reruns on Superstation WGN, or dig through my videotapes for the episode, in order to refresh my memory. But what I do remember is that for most of the episode, it was this car.

By the way, did you get my message about the image for the '95 Ford Explorer in the theme sequence, and the link to the 1950 Dodge Woody Wagon I've been trying to add? How about my e-mails on the other images from movies and TV shows?

Emails arrived for "Junebug", "Mother, Jugs..." and "Kenny" (still in the "contrib" box, waiting to be processed).

But I do not see what Explorer and Dodge link you are talking about.

Oh, these:

I should add star ratings for all the vehicles in "Even Stevens." I was going to scan some images from "The Architect" today;
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0466665/


...but for some reason my DVD-Drive doesn't want to play the copy I've rented. I played another DVD after this, and it seems to work a little better. So it's possible that DVD may have a program that keeps it from being copied or scanned. Or, perhaps my drive is breaking down. Guess I'm going to have to scan images from another title.

Well, that thread is in the contributions section, it will be processed at some point, as long as it is in the first 2-3 pages, it is not lost.
To make the old one appear in these first pages, you should have posted a new message in it rather than only editing old messages :wink:

These star rating searches would be a good idea. :smile:
