The movie ISLAND

[DaTT]

A while back I made this thread, and somebody posted a pic of this boat. I watched The Island tonight and the Wally was in it. Thought it was cool.

 

[dighn]

hmm so it's a real boat

 

[DaTT]

Looked real enough.

It's called product placement.

A real yacht with sixteen thousand horsepower, and a potential crusing speed of 70 knots! Me wants, me wants now!

 

[conehead433]

Enough about the yacht. The movie was probably the best I've seen all year. Two thumbs and hands up.

haha, i watched the movie last night, and i remembered the boat from that thread

 

[placebo139]

price for the boat?

 

[destrekor]

8 million with 1 diesel engine (for backup I believe), 16mil for 2 engines, and about 25mil for the 3 diesel engine model.
:Q

me wants. maybe if i get a great job, after I retire I shall invest in one and be the captain. i shall give mini-cruises to people. lol
who wouldn't wanna take a cruise in a tank-boat? lol
the pics of the interior look amazing. I love the features of the thing. I really like the fold-out platforms and the electronic platform to get out of the water. lol fancy

60 knots?

Nice.

... you watch a movie with one of the most incredibly stunning women on the planet (which also happened to be quite an underrated movie, IMHO) and you come away thinking about the BOAT?!?!?!?!

 

[computeerrgghh]

I'm not surprised, the whole movie was just one big commerical.

Richard Hammond also did a segment on the 118 Wallypower on Top Gear a couple of seasons ago.

QFT, but still a decent movie.

Wow!

Watched the movie last night as well, lots of vendors, really nice boat but $25m gawlee!

The boat changes colors in different kinds of light etc.

Edit: Brings out calculator and thinks of wild and crazy (read: stupid) rich people.

$25m / 3 years = $8.3m
$8.3 / 48 weeks = ~$180k
1 week stay on "nice" boat: $65,000 (avg price for 1 of 3 rooms) $195,000 total.
Work 48 weeks out of the year = $60,000/month or $720k/year. (could work for less)
Have $25m boat paid off in 3 years making $720k year: PRICELESS


[begin]Look at checkbook [/end]
[begin]Back to the drawing board....


* Calculations might be way wrong... but WGARA in fantasy land.

 

[clamum]

I agree-it might now be the best but definitely on of the top 3 Ive seen this year.
