I was watching Father Goose today, and I realized that this movie has Caches in it...they're not legal Geocache Caches..but they're are Caches....!

 

I wonder how many other movies have caches in them?

 

Give me a Tall ship, and a Star to steer her bye...

I'm sure someone will be able to Markwell you to some older threads, but those movies which I can remember that regularly get debated re: Caching...

 

Star Trek Nemesis - When Picard, Worf and Data fly down to that planet to pick up pieces of Lore... I mean B-4.

 

The Shawshank Redemption - Under the stone with no eartly purpose in being there.

Fandango has the ultimate cache in it. A bottle of Dom buried in the desert.

 

To Kill a Mocking Bird has the hollow tree in front of Boo Radley's house.

 

Night of the Hunter had a mobile cache (the little girl's doll with 10,000 dollars in it).

Oh man...Night of the Hunter...one of my favorites...very creepy movie. One of the few times Shelly Winters actually looks somewhat easy on the eyes, too! icon_wink.gif

Doh! You beat me to it. Yesterday I was looking for one that had, in the clue, a "double bar tee." I kept reading it as "double bar tree" and cursing the guy "what the H*ll does that mean"? The site had two fallen trees crossing a third to make a "T." It wasn't as obvious as you might think because there were fallen trees all over the place out there. But I certainly thought of this movie.

The Game, one of my top five movies, which had Michael Douglas in a real fix. He was a sort of travel bug. Poor fella.

 

Someone please tell me name of the movie that starred Robert DeNiro and some other cat.....

 

They robbed the French foreign ministry building, and stole a very pricey artifact of some sort.... What was that thing called???

 

They used gps units at one point in the movie, which was interesting.

Didn't they hide the ransom money on the side of a highway in Fargo? Don't remember if it was buried in the ground or in the snow.

CLose Encounters of the Third Kind?

 

That trek to Devil's Tower. Only the cache wasn't pre-approved and the coordinates were a bit sketchy.

 

Can't believe I didn't think of the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. One of my favorites. What was that -- a puzzle cache? Three people. each with one part of the puzzle/answer.

 

Once Upon a Time in America had some cache-like action. There was the locker in the train station and the key to the Crypt. Been a while since I seen that one.

 

What was the old John Wayne movie where they traveled across the desert to where a bunch of money/bold was hidden in the boiler of a wrecked train engine? The ruins to that train among the dunes looked every real. I've always wondered if it's really out there someplace.

Good call on Ronin. It was on the tip of my tongue until you said it.

I've been watching the trailer for this NEW movie and can't help but think it's the kind of thing that could inspire a cache or two (a multi would be nice). Of course, be careful around those caves. :D

 

Be sure to check the trailer out, if your connection speed can handle that sorta thing.

I don't think anybody saw it but me, but City Slickers II has to be on the list of cache movies. The whole movie was based around a letterbox style cache of Gold.

There was this one movie that it seems no one saw despite there being a few stars in it - Florida Straits. It had Raul Julia and Fred Ward. I loved it as a kid watching HBO. They go to Cuba to find some gold Julia's character hid during the Cuban revolution.
