Not looking to take away from the American Graffiti thread, so I figured I'd start a new one. I'm looking to add to my video library and add some DVDs when I get a player. Good, bad or otherwise, I plan to own every car movie I can get my hands on.
What I have now: Le Mans Cannonball Run Gumball Rally Smokey and the Bandit Victory by Design - Porsche What's on my list so far: American Graffiti Two Lane Black Top No Mans Land Banzai Runner The Wraith other Cannonball Run sequils other Smokey and the Bandit sequils VBD - Ferrari What am I missing (and other discussions)? |

re: THX 1138 - yup on the THX for the sound system. Especially watch the chase scene and compare it to the scene in Star Wars where the good guys are attacking the death star. Close up of hero in cockpit with helmet on, turbines whining, garbled voices on radio - cut to exterior shot of car/ship flying by - cut to control room with controllers, um, controlling - cut to close up of tactical computer display, beeping - cut to bad guys coming up behind (same damn sound effects for the motorcycles as the tie fighers), cut back to hero in cockpit with helmet, turbines whining, etc.
Hee - last chase, I remember that one. That was a 917? I guess my Porsche love affair started earlier than I thought! Now I'm going to try to look up a copy of The Great Race - just to see Natalie Wood in that outfit.

Who else would name a female character "Truly Scrumptious"?) |
