So I felt like watching a movie with a good car chase recently - and none is cooler than the on in the Original Gone in 60 Seconds.
Then I noticed something funny on the DVD cover...
(Yes, its German)
Don't see it? Maybe this helps:
They even crappily photoshopped the gun out!

For some reason I feel like someone's going to file a case against this when Driver explodes in popularity. I'll give Driver getting popular five years.

That's the front. Does it look familiar to anyone?

No. No. That is NOT GTA IV. Are you serious? I see that's Niko with a Desert Eagle and that car next to him is the Chavos...
Interestingly, the same label, "Mr. Banker Films", has also released Gone in 60 Seconds 2 & 3.
Tell me if you find anything interesting on the covers
The funny thing is: "Gone in 60 Seconds 2" was never released, because H.B. Halicki died during filming. The only thing that could be considered a sequel is "The Junkman". I think the German title of that movie is "Firebird Tornado", but that is on the cover of the third movie. But there was no third movie! Its not the remake! Gone in 60 Seconds 2 has the subtitle "Highway Patrol" - there was only one movie with that name, from 1938. Then what is the second movie?
What the f is this?

Hood vent on yellow-black cover looks like from ending of Driv3r official teaser, if my memory does not lie...

I just checked it. Very similar, but not the same.

Btw...
On some shots, especially from Nice and Istambul, Tanner has a white shirt and a suit, exactly like in Driver 2.
