Finally watched the original Vacation with my kiddo Tuck last night. Only had to cover his head with the blanket for a couple of scenes. He'd of course seen Christmas Vacation about 100-times, but he'd never seen the original one. He loved it, and now understands a bit more about his Dad's weird love of woody wagons. That movie is just timeless. Never gets old! -Texas Mike
Been a year or two, but I watched it for the extras and the commentary. It's how I found out 'The Jump' was about a record-setter, and basically demolished that car. And that Chase was surprised when Anthony Michael Hall drained the beer-he was only supposed to take a sip!
