I just watched this movie again(part of my Thanksgiving movie tradition!)

Who else loves this movie? John Candy is SO endearing! I love him so! What a sweetie! How I miss this wonderful guy!

Oops! Sorry! This was meant for the movies board! I clicked on the wrong one! Please move it TJ!

It was an honest mistake. I'll move it. I do think it was a really funny movie. Steve Martin and John Candy were hilarious.

AllIWantIsYourClutch · 11-18-2003, 10:02 PM

OMG I thought that movie was SO sad!

Yup, it starts out being so funny! But it is really a heartwrencher at the end isn't it?

I also love this movie. It really tugs at your heartstrings.

John Candy. I was a huge fan, and I get sad whenever I see his films.

EricIdlefan · 11-19-2003, 05:28 PM

John Candy reminds me a lot of John Madden, the former Raiders coach turned legendary football commentator!!

Who else loved that scene at the airport?

Jessica · 08-09-2009, 04:24 PM

Thanks for posting that. What a wonderful scene. I miss John Candy! I love that scene, because it shows that he was as good of a dramatic actor as he was a comedic one. Plus, Steve Martin deserved it, although he was finally able to let his bottled up feelings out, he didn't realize what an impact they would make.

Jessica · 08-10-2009, 12:40 AM

Exactly. I also uploaded as a small both John Candy and John Hughes tribute.

Every year I watch the movie Planes Trains And Automobiles and each time I watch it fun and laughter always makes it great to watch. And Steve Martin and the late John Candy made a great comedy team in the movie. It would be cool if a remake of Planes Trains And Automobiles was made with Drew Carey in the John Candy role and Will Ferrell in the Steve Martin role. And another fact about Planes Trains And Automobiles is that David Spade played a cameo role as a guy who robbed John Candy's and Steve Martin's room
Do you like the movie Planes Trains And Automobiles?

Yeah it's a great film. I don't think a remake is necessary though.

Edison · 11-23-2017, 02:35 PM

It's perfect. No remake.

KRW · 11-23-2017, 03:22 PM

None of John Hughes movies should be remade.
