So. I have Vacation on the brain this week (not sure why 
), and I thought that that would make a decent topic for the week.
If you could take a vacation within a movie… where would you go?
Would you visit the forest of Endor, dance some Yub Yub with the Ewoks? Maybe you’d like to chill out at the Blue Lagoon. Always dreamed of visiting Wally World and having the park all to yourself?
Let’s turn FMR into Rekall today. You can book a trip to anywhere to do anything. Want to fly the Top Gun fighter planes? Take a cruise on the Titanic, without it sinking? Maybe you’d like to visit Wonderland, or take a trip through Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory, or turn the clock back and visit 1920s Paris, with Gil Pender…
Wherever it might be, the choice is up to you. If you could take a vacation in a movie, where would YOU go?
I LOVE this question…and such wonderful answers in this thread. Points for the RIZA choice up above.
Vacation spot for me, man, I’d choose a place like Paris in Amelie to vacation in. That, or Midnight in Paris.
I haven’t seen Amelie… As a matter of fact, Tank and I both had to cop to having not seen it (I just edited our movie “Confessions”) podcast…
Definitely dig Midnight in Paris though!
Hummm, Titanic without it sinking, that sounds like fun. I’ve always wanted to be in Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. I’m ready to not panic and bring a towel. LOL Maybe that’s not specific enough. Okay, *take two* Hogwarts. I’m such a dork. There you go…Hogwarts.
Hogwarts makes you like… LEARN and stuff though, dont they?
Thanks for putting that $&%$#in’ Celine Dion flute in my head now, thanks.
How mad would you be if I cop to never having seen “Hitchhiker’s Guide”?
Fogs…come on, my man. You have to watch Hitchhiker’s Guide. The book is better, but the movie wasn’t that bad. I liked it.
Alright, alright, there’s a handful of people on me cause of that one, I’m gonna work it in to my plans
Really good question
I’d say New York Woody Allen style
Monaco from To Catch a Thief
Chiacago from the film of the same name
And any location from a Bond movie
I was surprised that Bond didn’t get more play, he’s been to such exotic locations!
Monaco was pretty sweet in “To Catch a Thief”, that’s a good answer, too.
Classic flick
I like to relax and have fun on a vacation, so having the run of Wallyworld actually sounds pretty good…
But how about this for a concept vacation? The Matrix. With the abilities of the One. Let’s see what a guy with some actual brains can do with those.
Whoa.
Lol. That would be a trip! Literally!
I want to go to Amity Island, and take a ride on the Orca with Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider
Heh. Me too. As long as Quint NAVIGATES and not drives, and stays away from the radio!!!
I’d like to go into the “Avitar” world of beauty to enjoy the surrroudings and conquer a fear of heights. Great question!!
I can picture you swan diving off that huge waterfall LOL
The City in Logan;s run; Wait… I’m over thirty; guess i will just have to go to Adventure Land.
Adventure Land might be lame over 30, too. All the kids working there were 20, tops. Lol.
Least they wouldn’t kill ya like in Logan’s Run though!
The one place I’d like to go actually exists and that would be the Grand Hotel in “Somewhere In Time”. But it’s the kind of place I wouldn’t like to go alone and right now I have no one. Maybe someday.
Casablanca, Morocco…anywhere from a Pedro Almodovar movie because I absolutely love Spain & anywhere/time in Australia (any movie set there will do)!
You’d be galavanting all over, huh? Whats wrong with the good ol U S of A?
Been there, done that LOL!
