2 Fast 2 Forever #329 – Planes, Trains & Automobiles (1987)
Happy Thanksgiving! We’re trying to get home to our families — any way we can — to talk about Planes, Trains & Automobiles! After trying to think of the (very) few Thanksgiving-based movies that have been made, we talk about the (insane) original runtime of this movie, John Hughes’s original casting ideas, and the wild things this production decided to (or had to) spend money on. We talk about traveling before 9/11, our biggest travel frustrations (and biggest travel tips), and tales of car rental agency terror. We discuss Joe buying a “magic fingers” bed for his guest room and discover a wild Seinfeld connection within another Seinfeld connection. We praise John Candy’s performance.
