Ive dated a few girls who hadnt seen Star Wars, Dumb and Dumber, Platoon, etc. The worst was when one said she hadnt even heard of Robocop.

And somewhere on a fashion forum a female has posted the following... :)

Ive dated a few guys who hadnt seen The Notebook, Legally Blonde, Thelma & Louise, etc. The worst was when one said he hadn't even heard of Dirty Dancing.

All of these are great flix!!! 2 of my faves are Smokey and the Bandit and 1941. Burt Reynolds made some really funny movies and you can never go wrong with Belushi

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.
============================
A few things that the younger people won't understand about Smokey and the Bandit... Coor's beer used to be a big deal east of the Mississippi River. You couldn't buy it over here in stores. Also PONTIAC Trans Ams (with T-tops) were a huge deal as were CB radios.

I didn't realize it until I rewatched it that The Cannonball Run has a Knoxville reference

"I'm Dr. Nicholas Van Helsing,(played by the awesome Jack Elam) doctor of proctology and other related tendencies. I'm a graduate of the University of Rangoon, as well as assorted nightclasses at the Knoxville, Tennessee College Of Faith Healing."

to which Burt Renyolds replies
"You may be a little over qualified for this job"

such an awesome film :)
