Repu in Motion Pictures

'Sudden Impact' 1983 Clint Eastwood classic.

http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_20411-Mazda-Rotary-Pickup-1974.html

I always thought I had remembered seeing a REPU in this movie and thanks to the internet it confirmed my rather vague recollection. It was one of the bad guys vehicles and appears only briefly as he goes fishing.

Yeah, i remember watching this movie again when they showed it during the Clint Eastwood marathon a few months ago. Had to do a double take on it when they showed it parked at the beach parking lot. It was cool seeing it in a movie!

REPU in movies website

I seem to recall a Bond movie taken place in San Francisco,
with a REPU but had a later bed probably repaired by the movie set people. Anybody else that caught it? Remember the movie title?

There was a Repu that got smashed and the end of the car chase scene in The Rock.

There's also the yellow repu in Poltergeist. I can't believe I've never seen the one in Sudden Impact? I'll have to watch it!

Another...

No idea how I missed it before, but just saw one watching Fight Club for the third or fourth time. In the scene where Tyler is holding a store clerk at gunpoint behind the store asking him what he wanted to be. The camera turns back twice to Ed Norton, and behind him is a white REPU with a camper top on it.
