XJ's in the movies?!?!?

[moparmatt]

I just got done watching one of my favorite movies "Gone in 60 seconds". In the movie there is a Police Package XJ that gets with a reacking ball and goes through a wall. The cop lived because he was in a XJ .

I can think back to another movie I saw "Secret Window" there was a XJ in that movie too.

Can anyone else think or know of any other movie that I missed that shows a XJ(s)?

It even got shot at...

The Goonies was by far the most famous and historical for the XJ.

Some others off the top of my head are:

Tom Hank's XJ in "Cast Away"
T3
XJ wagoneer in "Homeward Bound"
and there was a red one in the TV series "Millenium"

I know there are many many others...

Theres a crap load of XJs in that movie XXX. I caught the tail end of it on tv the other day and when the military shows up they are driving about 6 XJ's.

Theres also one in the new allstate add. The Jeep gets picked up with a bunch of stuff rolling down a hill in what looks like Cali. When they get to the bottom the XJ doesn't have a scratch on it.

Tom Hanks also had one in Sleepless in Seattle. Uh, at least that's what I was told.

I remember now, Tom Hanks even talked about how great his XJ was in the near the end of the movie.

I remembered another "Pay it Forward" the teacher guy drives it.

I don't remember any in the X-files.

But Eureka, right it is a Police Package XJ.

I can not think of any more XJ's in shows
