Introducing the DCX Car Movie Club!

Introducing the DCX Car Movie Club!

What’s this, you say? Diecast collectors are car guys — and gals! — at heart, and car guys love car movies. And there are a lot of great ones out there, so we are going to start a regular feature where we toss one out there for you guys to watch — or RE-watch — and then we all get to chat about it! Because talking about car movies (and very likely arguing a little about them — although we ask everyone to keep it civil and good-hearted!) is almost as much fun as watching them — and collecting model cars tied to them, because after all this is a diecast magazine!

We’ll follow up with a post on our Facebook page HERE with our take on the movie, the cars in it, and any models made of them — or that SHOULD be made of them! And you get to play along in the Comments.

Ok, without further ado, the first movie is: Die Cast X - Diecast Model Cars | Introducing the DCX Car Movie Club!

The choice here was inspired by the story we just did on another McQueen classic (ie Bullitt — which you can bet will be on the club homework list before too long!). But this movie is the definitive one on the French endurance sports car classic, and a must-see.

 

And if you want a leg up on all the background drama behind the film, do yourself a favor and check out the documentary, which is on Netflix and Showtime this month:

We are totally borrowing this idea from Jalopnik (with much respect!) If you want to participate in their club too, check this LINK.
