I figure one of you will know. I definitely laughed out loud when he picked it up from shoulder height and tossed it out the window. Just a few months ago I wouldn't have thought twice about that. Wink

I've never seen the movie; a picture is worth a thousand words.

I haven't seen it yet, but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Rod_%28film%29 already mentions the scene...

wikipedia wrote:
Kevin releases a movie using his footage of Rod's stunts and sells over 200 tickets, but everyone at the movie laughs at Rod's expense because the film depicts his failed training attempts. Rod gets angry and throws the theater's projector out of a window, and ends up giving up all the money he has raised so far to cover the respective damages.

If we are playing the "spot the projector in the movie" game, I was watching "Die Hard 2" last night on tv. In one of the scenes where the flight attendant is talking to McClain's wife, you can see a Barco mounted to the ceiling of the plane...

Just my $.02...
