There's something magical that happens when Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly get together. The frequent collaborators and master improvisers provide some of the best lines in 2006's race car comedy Talladega Nights: The Legend of Ricky Bobby. The film may not have won any Oscars, but its quick dialogue remains legendary, at least to me. Here are my favorite lines, what are yours?
"I like to picture Jesus in a tuxedo T-Shirt because it says I want to be formal, but I'm here to party." — Cal
"Shake and bake!" — Ricky Bobby
"Chip, I'm all jacked up on Mountain Dew!" — Texas Ranger
At one time or another, we've all found ourselves on a long flight, desperate for any way to kill time. That's when the airplane movie comes in. In my opinion, the best airplane movies are pure entertainment (not too much thinking necessary), and they help pass the time so quickly you're on the ground before you know it.
The Devil Wears Prada was one of those for me. I somehow hadn't seen it by the time it hit airplane screens, but it was the perfect thing to chew up a couple of hours of my time on a cross-country flight last year. Even my boyfriend, who probably would have rolled his eyes if I'd rented it at home, had to admit it was a pretty fun movie.
So for this week's Buzzworthy challenge, I'm asking you to track down the best movies you've seen on planes. Just use Buzzsugar's cool bookmarking tool to bookmark some fun flicks online, tag them with the phrase airplane movies, and tell me why they were great to watch at 30,000 feet. I'll post some readers' picks here next week.
You can also make a list of your picks. Here are mine:
