What movie is this?

[Motorhead350]

I saw an image many years ago of a car falling off the Chicago "Corn Cob" buildings into the Chicago river. I think it was used in a commerical over a year ago when I used to watch t.v. and I think the car was white and it took place in the 80s.

Anyone know what movie had a car falling into the Chicago river off a building?

I thought it was black futuristic looking thing and the movie was "Black moon rising"

I have no idea Paul. You guess is better than mine.

The black car (Black Moon) in "Black Moon Rising" did not go into a river, it went from a floor of one building to a floor of another building. I believe it was Tommy Lee Jones driving.

The opening sequence of the Bob Newhart Show included a shot of Marina City, and many people assume that Bob's character lived there. He did not—the building used for the exterior shots of Bob's apartment building sits seven miles to the north, on Sheridan Road in the Edgewater neighborhood.
The towers are featured on the cover of the Wilco album Yankee Hotel Foxtrot.
In the movie The Hunter, "Papa" Thorson (Steve McQueen) pursues a suspect in a car chase through the Marina City parking garage. His quarry eventually loses control of his car and drives it off of a high floor of the garage into the Chicago River. This scene was later recreated for an Allstate commercial in 2006/2007.

A small scene in The Blues Brothers feature film had the Marina City towers where the Chicago P.D.'s police boats are seen right before the Bluesmobile crashes through a roadblock.
Marina City is featured in the montage shots of Chicago in Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Marina City is shown in the opening shot of the movie Captain Ron with Kurt Russell and Martin Short.
The towers are also shown in the film The Break-Up. The film showcased many prominent landmarks of Chicago.
Marina City can clearly be seen in the background scene of the front of the USR Building in the movie "I, Robot".
Marina City is shown in the Prison Break television series.

This from a man who has more chemicals in his body than a toxic waste dump and has started more projects than the south side of Chicago. :rofl:
