| [quote="manny"]The Sure Thing[/quote] Could a movie with this plot even get made these days? "College freshman John (Gib) Gibson decides to go cross country to visit his friend in California during winter break. Awaiting there is a bikini-clad babe whom his friend assures him is a "sure thing". Meanwhile, Allison, a cute (but somewhat anal retentive) girl at Gib's college has also decided to head out to Cal. to see her boyfriend during break. Gib and Allison are thrust together on a road trip from hell, and somewhere along the way, they find each other's company to be tolerable. Now, what will become of Gib's "sure thing?" |

Actually I think it's been done these days... there was a teenybop sex comedy called "Sex Drive" earlier this year whose storyline, from what I've gathered, was frighteningly similar to this one _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

One of my all time faves... How'bout "Hamburger: The Motion Picture" "Ski School" (actually I think this one is early 90s, but it's definitely '80s in spirit) "Summer School" "Fraternity Vacation" "One Crazy Summer" _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

One of the best comedies, ever. Funny how in real life, that mean looking old lady was actually a very nice person despite playing mean and sour characters (not counting the crazy homeless lady in Scrooged). | |

Oh MAN, love this one! Fred Willard as "the Car Doctor": "Why, I even have some celebrity clients... just last week I reamed out Roger Moore, he was completely satisfied, in fact he's coming back next week for a full rear end job!" Just thought of another one that I don't think was mentioned yet: How'bout "Just One Of the Guys?" _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"
