If you are anything like me you get excited when you spot a 2nd generation Firebird in a movie. I don’t know why, because they usually all get destroyed. Then again it’s probably because they are AWESOME! Anyhow, I decided to put together a list of movies that feature or starr our beloved firebirds. I’ll include a short description of the film or firebird role in the movie along with a rating.<\/p>\n
