7 Things You (Probably) Didn't Know About Planes, Trains and Automobiles 

That's awesome!

That’s Awesome!!!!

Which one? "Walk about a mile, mile and a half to the highway. The trucks will meet you, and they'll take you into Jefferson City." "Aw...What did you do here?" or the guy standing next to him with no lines?

That’s fantastic! My aunt, uncle, and grandma were extras. You can see my aunt and uncle in the scene where the train breaks down - they are seated across them aisle from Steve Martin.

Completely agree but comedy always gets overlooked by them

Agreed, it was a perfect piece of cinema! One of the funniest films ever.

No doubt, how can you forget Del Griffith ? Great character and acting

Yep, agreed. Martins role was also very well done and Oscar worthy as well.

Spot on

You’re right about that, John Hughes made some great movies, period!!!!

(SPOILER!) . . . . . liked :(

"Do you want to hurt me? Go right ahead if it makes you feel any better. I'm an easy target."

Seen SCTV? Great stuff!

john candy my favirite first actor i ever reated to with tears or feeling for him after the bad news wasnt happy.mj either kinda angry

Yes, I felt like I lost my Uncle. Why is it when we get back on track when Life seems to suddenly end? I did watch Camp Candy, Vacation, Home Alone, and Great Outdoors. In 2018 I sunddely started watching Uncle Buck. I guess I never understood it until I had four kids. I’ve seen it over 20 times this year. Very poetic.

Me too . When movies were good.

My favorite comedic actor - friggen genius!

quicksilverbalt same here we just watched it on thanksgiving it’s a tradition now.

rip

And John Hughes....!! He was such a great film maker with his hand on the pulse of the times! Made suck great movies. Would love to see the movies he WOULD have made today! R.I.P. 🤖🤓

He was hilarious!! So sad he went so early.. RIP Uncle Buck

quicksilverbalt isn't that the truth, I've missed that man for years now so much. Its like you just knew that he was actually a sweetheart in real life. Him and robin Williams having some beers in heaven.

jokeco68 couldn't agree more mate

only1icon Not even sure if brilliant is a strong enough word for this classic!!!

@ Alan: I see what you did there.

who still spells "their"there "they're WRONG its fukking 2018 people ! and u get called out every time on the interweb?! Faaak

"Their" not there

That and the spit handshake are priceless

"You tge shower curtain fella.... snarlllllllll" 😆

The breathe in snort!

She's a real trooper!

Give him the god damn gloves!

Strangely enough, I kind of figured it about halfway through the movie...but I ended up crying anyway. Kudos to the whole cast.

elliot campbell me too! I was somewhere around 12 or 13 and they took me to see it in the theaters, great memory!

That is a great memory you have. I am glad that you have it. I am even more glad that you are able to appreciate it like you do.

Oh yes

We need to demand it.

A Godfather: Part II length version of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles sounds amazing.

disfunctional morons it’s gonna see the light of day some day

I’m sure if we give a large enough outcry, it’ll get a Netflix release or something of that nature. Uncut and all.

You wanna hurt me? Go right ahead if it makes you feel any better. I'm an easy target. Yeah, you're right, I talk too much. I also listen too much. I could be a cold-hearted cynic like you...but I don't like to hurt people's feelings....

Are you gonna help me? Or are you gonnna stand there like a slab of meat with mittens?

"I've never seen a man picked up by his testicles before"

@@TheBobbo4554 Get your car outta here. Get it *OUTTA HERE!!!*

Him and Chris Farley.

Ethan Ward See that Bears game last week?

Loooool, ahh memories. What a classic

zombiTrout hell of a game

“You can’t rent a car with shower curtain rings Del!”

Ethan Ward best line in the movie!!!!

And the secretary to the principle in Ferris Bueller was an epic scene with Steve Martin... She and Steve Martin were the reason the movie is rated R

You'll never make the 6

After he dealt Blackjack in Swingers

Yes, now that you mentioned it!!!!!

I wish they would give us a choice to watch the movies with or without the foul language. I only watched this one once on video because of that.

@@julienielsen3746 You are an adult... put your big girl panties on and deal with it. its not that foul anyways, how do you cope in society when people talk like that and worse daily!

ChubbyChecker182 crickets...........Flintstones! Meet the Flintstones!

ChubbyChecker182 "You know this one. Three coins in a fountain, each one seeking happiness. Something....." "Flintstones, meet the Flintstones, they're the modern Stone age family."

WILLLLMAAAAAAAAAAAA!

@@Alan-qe6jr I love that part!!!

@@Karmen2010 Then again, what parts aren't there to love in Planes Trains & Automobiles?! That is just a hilarious movie from beginning to end!

How does he know where we're going?

He's drunk

Yeah... thank yooooo 👋

That was the reason I bought a video of the movie for my brother after watching it the first time. My brother was driving my mother and myself around Eugene Oregon showing us around. A hippy on a bike came along toward us yelling. We got closer and heard him yelling, "You're going the wrong way !!!" Then my brother says, " Uh oh, we're going the wrong way on a oneway street." Then on the way out of Eugene, my mom got lost and couldn't figure out how to get on the freeway. I spotted a cop at a service station that was giving someone a ticket. When he was done he told us to follow him on his motorcycle. Also when we were there my brother drove us on this washboard road that made it feel like his pickup was going to fall apart. He wanted to show us where he thought he lost his springer spaniel one day. The poor dog Buddy was in the pickup with us. When we got back to his apartment poor Buddy had an attack of diarrhea on the lawn out front from some stuff my brother had fed him before. I'm surprised Buddy didn't have an accident in the truck.

@@stuartmiller7419 "YOU'RE GOING TO KILL SOMEONE!!!" *John Candy as the Devil driving was an awesome scene!!!!

Yeah, I was waiting for that too... ;)

You seem like a Negan fan.

They make it seem like a PG movie up until that scene and then it KILLS!!!

Oooo man. You're just the coolest with adding fuck into every spot you could like a bad ass.

+Haylbays ! Yes... that's the joke, mate.

Haylbays ! Unlike yourself ;)

Which one? The beginning or end one?

@@mem1701movies I was wondering the same thing!!!!

I don't see how anyone could not think it was sad. Eventually uplifting, but definitely a tear joker moment.

Yep. That and the freeze-frame wave at the end of Uncle Buck get me every single time. I miss John Candy, man. :(

@@lloydrodriguez9969 Every time you go away... It gets to me even though we know what's coming!

@@brucefritzges8759 Yep, I'll literally watch this movie when I've bottled up some emotions and feel like I could use some catharsis. I know every part, the music, the lines, etc. but it's just such a well written movie it can elicit those emotions despite you knowing. I watch it annually (at least).

Levi Boldock yes!!!!

I still say SHE deserved a Supporting Actress nomination for playing straight man to Steve for that single, solitary scene!

Before The Credits - love the bubbling underpants in the sink!

You've only seen it once? 🤨

It's a family tradition, we all sit around and watch it every Thanksgiving. Even though we know every line, it still cracks us up.

Memphis Blues you sir have a great family

Watch out, it's got a sting in the tail

Brown Sugar - And they were ALL good friends, I believe.

Phil McCrevice lol

gokinsmen *For what you told about the plot, sounds like "Due date" got inspired by this movie*

Yeah, Due Date was basically a (crappy) remake of PT&A.

gokinsmen I had no idea!!

I think the only reference to the affair subplot in the final cut is when Neal's wife is watching TV, and if you listen closely, you hear a wife accusing a husband of cheating (a scene from "She's Having A Baby" as the video mentions).

Due Date was way better than this. This was a good movie though.

Holday rooo-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oad!

Yes, by like 10000000000000

tdog12344 or any vacation movie for that matter.

I mean, do you really want them to do only Vegas Vacation?

The see-saw dialogue was based on true events. As was the fate of the dog, tied to the bumper. And Aunt Edna's fate....also based on a true event. Wally World? You guessed it, based on an actual theme park and beloved icon. Wally World? Not the actual name of the theme park used in the film. Roll em up! Roll em up! Based on a very good idea if one was in a similar situation. 7 I know you wanted Christmas Vacation, but it's just not as good. Although I love it.

Lessin you're a hog or a cattle.

Kevin Knutson How Candy didn't get an award for this movie blows my mind. That scene alone was worth an Oscar.

Pat Harty totally agree! You Can really feel every word as he says it. Chokes me up a bit too!

xlent, fav movie my fav scene love john candy wording to a tee!

calm down Peter Griffin

John Hughes & the 80s sure pumped out some classic, memorable, awesome movies. John Candy was and still is, one of my favorite actors ... this movie, Uncle Buck and the rest of the classics. He was a great soul and a gentle giant ♡🌠✌

sugreev2001 Wouldn't it be awesome to watch the scenes that they cut from the movie? I bet there's some hilarious footage there!!

You’re going the Wrong Way!!!!

Yep, Dutch is another forgotten gem

I love Dutch too!!! Run these two movies back to back every Thanksgiving please, some network, somewhere?

Unfortunately, that may end up being the best investment in your life.

Brian Scott Fucking one of your fucking all time fucking favorites of all fucking time?

Me too. It’s really quite something. I remember exactly where I was when I found out he died. He made a real impact did John. People really loved him. All those comedians from that era were class. Pryor, Wilder, Aykroyd, Murray, Ramis, levy, Martin and of course Candy. Today’s comedians come actors are poor in comparison.

fucking fast fuck like give me a fucking script right fucking now

Cocaine

He also wrote Ferris buellers day off in like 6 days I believe

And his movies are timeless!

yeaap that's what the clip said

It was a 1986

Ninja Master that's what she said

William, *_I_* was going to say that! You beat me to it!

That would be a true special edition. A directors cut!! Will it ever happen? Who knows

I can help you with that......*zip*....*BOING*

@ad I grew up three hours from where hughes did. It's not over the top. It's a frustration that pours out of you in a majorly sardonic way. I've done it. Are you saying you haven't been so frustratingly mad in a conversation that you realeased all the steam in one go? It's a conversation stopper. It fits this scene. It was also refreshing to see. Her comeback was great, as well.

@ad i think its mine too. Every scene seems to have something great.

@ad although, the leadup where hes naming crappy cars is hugely funny. A toyota, a datsun. hahah

Giant Sparkplug yes. It was not nearly as funny as the R rated version

I wish they would give us a choice to watch the movies with or without the foul language. I only watched this one once on video because of that. I'm watching it today on AMC though.

the king of cool Hughes, Fogarty, and Springsteen have defined my landscape

One of the funniest and subtlest jokes I've ever seen in a movie. It just seems so "John Candy", I laugh at that every time!

Last movie was wagons east!

He didn't get to finish it if I remember correctly so Mpowers is right. They used stand ins and special effects to complete the shots for the movie, Wagons East.

Shifty77 I forgot about that movie. He was great in nothing but trouble too.

Sure is.

DreadPathZone Me too 😂

Me too.Still laughed my ass off.

I wish they had let that moment play out. It’s a great button for the scene.

She says ....your Fu@#ed does that still count?

I wish they would give us a choice to watch the movies with or without the foul language. I only watched this one once on video because of that.

Breen Machine - It’s not underrated. It’s a great movie, but not underrated buddy. It’s... rated

Scott Sullivan I’m saying John candy is underrated , not the movie . Buddy

Breen Machine underrated from who? U r tripping bro....if u grew up with him he's not underrated at all.....he jst passed away too soon.

Vicente Ortega Rubilar Same here it's more of a Christmas movie in Britain.

In the us it is literally a thanksgiving movie, but I think most people consider it a holiday movie, too.
