What film is/was this vehicle from?

[Jonny69]

I've had this jpg file sat on my desktop for ages. Can't remember where it came from but the original is 3.5mb in size, so I doubt it's something I got off a forum. I'm guessing it's a film vehicle. Anyone able to shed any light on what it is or what it was used for?



Edit: I don't recognise the yard or any of the guys in the picture, so it's not from my days in sfx.

It's the APC from Aliens. You can just see the turret at the front.

That was quick! Question now is, why is it on my desktop!

Because you saved it there instead of somewhere else on your hard drive.

Next question?

Aha, makes sense now. I must have saved it to see what the picture was because it was so hugeroflhotlinked, then made a sarcastic post about it

Any chance of a lolrofllolbiggersize of this pic?

How sad is this, I downlo...err I mean got the quadrilogy about 2 years ago, was on msn to a mate and we both syncronised the times we started it so watched it at the same time yet a few hundred miles away apart.


Yeeeaaaaah, that's how we roll! \m/

Its funny how the space marines rolled in vehicles that could be defeated by a speedbump.

How strange, I had a feeling this would be the Aliens APC before I clicked the thread

What i love about the APC is in the film they stand up inside it perfectly fine but from the outside it's only around 6ft high LOL

Awesome films . can anyone tell me if the blu ray collection is actually any good , i've gotton some recently that just seem rushed DVD conversions especially LEON (luc besson) which seems like it was just ripped from a DVD terrible quality.
