You just don't like the new Tron movie, that's all. :lol: Besides, Ducati was also used in the Matrix Reloaded in their chase scene, a 998 if I remember correctly.

Ummm, that was less about running from the cops and more about Ducati showing up a BMW. Just saying. Notice the logo placement in the shots...

Be careful about linking the manufacturer of a bike and how movie makers decide to use a bike. Doing so results in a less than flattering picture for your brand of choice. If it were a movie featuring Harleys the rider would more likely be murdering cops instead of just running from them.:lol:

Ah, where are you getting Ducati is promoting this? It's a scene from a movie, not a commercial. The poster on youtube is not Ducati. This is nothing more than a clip.

no kidding, if we took movie scenes representing a brand, Chris' precious Harley would look like the mother fucking devil.

But HD would promote that. It would add to "their image".

Yes, the doctors/lawyers/engineers need to feel like bummy murderers to feel good.

It was in a movie I saw on TV, but I couldn't find that clip. I was disappointed. It would of been an excellent thread tie in.

Ducatis run from cops, harleys rape children.

We killed jews. If you watch the Tron clip, when it shows the cop in shadows, he has an SS quality about him.

Harley is probably the most PC manuf out there right now. can't afford to risk their boutique sales. they're not promoting anything besides "image"

They're like Amway. They sell "the system" (or the image, in Harley's case), the products sell themselves. :lol:

So is that why Buell went under, cause they promoted running from the cops?

Ballistic: Ecks vs Sever.
