Had never seen it before, but following BTM's post a few weeks ago, I jumped at the chance when I spotted it was on  :D

Not sure the plot was that great, but excellent cars  :lol:

Plot!?
A bunch of kids on their last night before college.
'Toad' get the the car stolen
Curt chasing the blonde in the T-Bird
Milner with Carol bickering in the Deuce
Milners race

And of course the 'Wolfman'

You're forgetting what must be one of the most extensive sound tracks in movie history

I quite agree !

Blues Brothers and the Italian Job are my top films (original versions !), SWMBO gets most annoyed when I come out with the dialogue 30secs before the actors do......I haven't watched the films that often, honest  :oops:
