National Lampoon's Vacation, Open

[melkor116]

do you have the credits?

[compute101]

What's the song?

[dudette1254]

@compute101 "Holiday Road" by Lindsey Buckingham

[lovedreamgirlssing]

I always wondered if it was the mom singing in the background of the theme song.

[alusherman]

2 people bought a Wagon Queen Family Truckster

[bigbirdvinny]

The 2 people who disliked this need to sit on a large cactus. Idiots!

[stevepjk]

That is the first time I've heard a song which is exactly the same length as the opening credits, usually the song is changed to fit the lyrics

[titantransport]

I wonder if anyone has ever tried to see all the sights depicted in the postcards? I'd like to be the first to say I've done it.

Probably the best opening credits ever! Makes me wanna go road trippin somewhere.

[thewyrmsrevenge]

@titantransport agreed my friend

[Multineo5able]

I saw this movie b4 all yall

[daedralord1]

im so gona go watch the movie now, i think you are all fucked in the head hehe

[disneydanny2]

@daedralord1 Don't TOUCH! lol

[Nutcase201]

2 foreigns disliked because their not featured....

[592010]

Great movie, but I didn't realize Chicago had Palm Trees. Look at the background right after the credits, tall Palm Trees way in the back.

[DaShonuff]

@592010 I never seen palm trees at the beach, maybe then they were fake or something, no way Palm Trees would survive our winters.

[Burg875]

@Lousypenguin Fucking worthless irish drunk. Hope the British kill yours.

[Lousypenguin]

@Burg875 You obnoxious Yanks, Lol! You're well loved all over the world aren't ya! You're run by the Jews and have a nigger president, Your a joke of a country.

[WhiteTiger950]

@Lousypenguin I know some Americans who are wonderful folks. Do you realize just how horrible your comment makes you look?

[kwv889j]

@Lousypenguin I think the movie you want is "National Lampoon's European Vacation".

[25411959]

North Pole, Colo. @ 1:07, near Pikes Peak. Yay Colorado!

[ctperry06]

The only bad part about this movie is that they had to destroy a beautiful '71 Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser. :( Other than that, it's AMAZING!

[davidpar2]

this version cuts out the cowboy with the tired butt

[Cloud6556]

I thought this had their passports being stamped? and getting coffee spilt on them?

[MeNext]

@Cloud6556

You are thinking of EUROPEAN Vacation

[Cloud6556]

@MeNext

Oh yeah, sorry dude. *faceplant*

[TheBladePM]

[FlamingoKicker]

I remember watching this on 9-11 and seeing those postcards of New York City with the Twin Towers and God Bless America. It was wild.

[Tonytambe]

1 person didn't have a vactaion

[mrburkey]

I knew I reached a new level in my life when I was watching this and realized I had been to Gatorland with my wife and son,@ 1:21. At that point I felt like a true family man, lol

[ebvet1]

It's hysterical to watch Lindsay perform this in concert.

[MrCoworker]

0:12 and 0:33 they repeat a postcard

[SudsNSuch]

THIS. IS. AMERICA.

[Joecbg100]

1:34 Fargo?

[MrMatthewgross]

This song always sticks in my head for days after I hear it...

[Freebleeper]

I always laugh at the end with the dog barking!

[lesvance01]

National Lampoon's Vacation. Almost forgot about that one.

[snemetz1]

I woke up singing this song this morning - I think its the sign its going to be a good, wacky vacation.

[mcgcamp1]

The best part of this is the GREETINGS FROM SHARON SPRINGS!! POSTCARD!!

[RevFlowerjoy]

I think the part of the Dinosaur is from Canada near Calgary Alberta but not sure, Does anyone know where it is? I would love to do this trip with my family one day soon.. Hope to see that Park where Chevy and the family went to.

[cheapcape]

When I was in Florida, I lodged right across the street from "Gatorland Zoo" with the giant teeth showing.

[kane570003]

@leemarks220 WE DID HO HAVE PALM TREES IN CHICAGO

[GeorgeVreelandHill]

It is a classic that never gets old.

George Vreeland Hill

[jeferboyd]

Allison, This is TOO funny! I was sitting her trying to get some rest so I wasn't falling asleep driving next and I couldn't get this song out of my head! I logged on just so I could find it and post it with my next update!

[cheapcape]

Having No End Of Fun, lol!!

[cheapcape]

Great song and I love the postcards! So very nostalgic, I'm hitting the road!

[aoxomoxoadead]

At the end of the song you can hear the ghost of the dog Clark killed.

[dolfan73]

Boy are you stupid. It's at the end of the f'ing. It's always been there. What a fucking dumbass you must be.

[Ndure13]

@dolfan73

jesus christ dude. It was actually a compliment. What a fucking asshole you must be.

[TheRiggyRiggs]

Man is this a great movie, they dont make classics like these anymore. FUNNY! Thanks for this.

[Leuchtturm666]

The Quality on the DVD is AWESOME!!!

[mrtelevision]

They cut out the Warner Brothers Big W

originally at the beginning of this.

[Vampyreboy23]

[Vampyreboy23]

The movie is super and the song is so lovely! When i see this movie and lisen to this song i sing along with it ;-)

[3329847]

fuck yea this movie was great.....this dvd and some kush.....fucken done!

[canuti94]

tv pg but this movie is rated r

[kosai19]

They chopped the bad scenes and swearing.

[canuti94]

that sucks!

[kosai19]

Yeah they sliced the scene where he was swearing at the kids in the car after the old lady died. There was probably another scene with mild swearing also. Not to mention the 3 or more nude scenes. Beverly D'Angelo is now doing Entourage but she has a beautiful body in this. Check her out on Entourage, she's still hot.

[lilyquit2]

Awsome. I remember watching this when I was 9.

[disapointedpooch]

This is the best chevy chase movie...well and caddyshack which i think the part picked for him suited well...like this introduction too..tks

[dawnrun911]

Best intro into a movie ever..

[petey8887]

[thesimpsons300]

great movie and great song

[jrlynn79]

[lilyquit2]

Not really. Vaction is a bit more famous than Fletch. statistically speaking. Foregive me if I spelled something wrong.

[darkExodius]

this is the best movie with chevy chase!!!

[jasbb2]

This sure does bring back memories. FOX used to air this movie a lot
