    I'm 41 years old and I must have rented this VHS tape at least three dozen times during the course of my teenage years I basically have the script memorized. This is one of the most memorable openings to any movie that I can think of in my head right now. The sound of that V12 just resonates in my mind. It's crazy to think though that the guys that sprayed the car off with the big water hose I probably in there seventies now and probably still remember filming that scene. They don't make movies like this anymore and it's so sad that the vast majority of the cast is no longer with us. Rest in peace to those that we've lost from this movie.

      Agree to disagree - the opening to Canonball 1 had a much better car sound. Very growly. CZcams it. Also, no corny talk from the cops about hot chicks.

    • @bryankerbow7871
      @bryankerbow7871 Před rokem +5

      @@robbtarte2389 don't need to CZcams it. I've seen part 1 just as many times as I've seen part 2 and though you may be right about the growl, to me the cops talking and the girls laughing made that scene even better. It also set the mood for the movie by telling you it was gonna be a comedy. Without it, you have a countach running from cops, they could've been showing a cocaine kingpin running from cops but adding the playful joking let you know from the get go that it was going to be a funny ass movie and that you were in for a ride...oh and speaking of other parts to the Cannonball series anyone reading this can skip the unofficial part 3 called Speed Zone with John Candy and Eugene Levy. No disrespect to either of those comedy legends but that movie was a half ass attempt to revive a movie series and they blew it. Seriously the opening sequence when they skipped a Countach across a lake like they were skipping a stone? Not at all funny and just sad.

    I remember Need for Speed did a comnination of spray paint and adding a "1" to the sign back in the day. They were driving a Murcielago. I didn't catch the homage back then though

      They both copied the Dukes of Hazzard, who did the 155 sign first.

    They paid for a whole "155" sign when all they needed was a "1".

    This movie came out back when the average car had bumpers sticking out and truck grills. This is a time when a Lamborghini out stand from the rest of the world. Nowdays a average everyday Corvette look as good as any of the dozens of manufactured supercars. Some how i don't get impress any longer when every month a new supercar makes its debut.

      How can you call yourself a car guy with a name like that? You discount an entire subcontinent's offerings without having driven each one? That's ridiculous. You don't like Rally Cars? What about JGTC - none of those cars are awesome in your opinion? Cmon man - even tho they can't turn to save their life I still enjoy a sloppy old muscle car for what it's worth. Every car company besides Smart has at least one epic vehicle in their stable

    And he worked with Burt on all 3 of 'em.....

      @@vtr0104 No problem. It's an absolute blast, but somehow always seems to slip under the radar, perhaps being overshadowed somewhat with it coming out so soon after Smokey and the Bandit. Needham and Reynolds did it as a tribute film to movie stuntmen and boy, does it show! I won't give anything away, but I know at least one of the stunts set a world record at the time.
      With Burt, Sally Field and a Trans Am all reunited, Rosco P. Coltrane from the Dukes, Stringfellow Hawke from Airwolf AND Batman in it, a cool bar fight, a horse that shits on command, a ton of genuinely impressive stunts and everything exploding everywhere, short of squeezing Jerry Reed and Jackie Gleeson in there too, does it get any better than that?

      Burt tells a story about this - it's because Hal was living on his couch (or in his house, at least) and was broke, but he came up with this screenplay and Burt helped make it happen. They were pretty good friends.
