February 22, 200521 yr Fonzi, I think I have noticed that. Seemed like they did some post editing-edits. MaryAnne, those are some great Smokey & the Bandit vid caps. I'm startin' to think we're gonna lose ya to the Smokey & Bandit fandom...you're probably buildin' "BanditNet" in yer spare time. Or in your case, that would be SmokeyNet. Brian
February 22, 200521 yr That is just darling story , I have found something I have been looking for now.
February 24, 200521 yr John was in Bandit, near the end of the movie... hear it straight from his own mouth..http://www.cmt.com/shows/dyn//inside_fame/88816/episode_videos.jhtml#
February 25, 200521 yr I've heard John mention this before - but in the umpteen years of Dukedom I've yet to see a picture provin' it. Maybe he picked that exact moment to face the wrong direction or something.
February 25, 200521 yr Author Isn't this one of the best "fun" movies? I didn't think that any of ya'll liked this movie that much....I'm glad I started this one now. As far as John Schneider , I thought it was in the scene that MaryAnne posted the pics from. Maybe his scene was cut?
May 15, 200521 yr Author Alright time to add the most posted topic in the movie section...I am hoping there is some Smokey & The Bandit references in the movie . It will both a tribute to Burt and the original Dukes . After all they referenced Burt Reynolds in the first episode - One Armed Bandits.Darrell
May 23, 200521 yr I just bought the Pursuit pack on DVD. After finally being able to watch Smokey 1 in its entirety, I haven't stopped giggling, or be able to drive "Eastbound and Down" from my head for days. Buford T. Justice is a riot.Junior: "Daddy, my hat blew off."Buford: "I hope your goddam head was in it!!"The finale where just about every police car in Georgia is trashed is classic.
July 10, 200521 yr Smokey and the Bandit ROCKS! It's definetly my new favorite. The first one is by far the best of the three. The third one just sucks big time, it was a waste of film. And I love the Cars Vs. Trucks scene in the second one. When all of the "county mounties, and mountie mounties" cars get trashed by the convoy of trucks! It's just fun fun fun!!!!

July 23, 200521 yr The third one is like I said a waste of film! I love the snowman and Fred, it just ain't the same without them! I think they either shounldn't have bothered filming it or waited til Burt was back. But I love the first one! I'm I going crazy or did I here somewhere that they were gonna remake Smokey and the Bandit as well? I know the Road Hammers are making a new vid to go with their version of East Bound and Down, I can't wait to see that! And If ya don't know who the Road Hammers are, well you can ask me! Well I', gone!
