Just watched Smokey and the Bandit I, II and III... why aren't movies nowadays, like these? These were great, just like the Cannonball Run movies and other 80's movies. Movies today are too serious...
who sings this???? This will FOREVER be my all-time FAvorite film. You had to grow up in this period to understand the CB era... Long live the Bandit....
its too bad they didnt make a 4th one considering they were terrififc movies and buford let the bandit go. and what happend to the real bandit and frog.
@82transam09 i meant the decal on the hood is a firebird. i know the car is a Trans Am. i tell people all the time who call the car a firebird they are mistaken. sorry for the misunderstanding.
@dvanbramer88 so which one has the firebird? i want a firebird but the one i was looking at doesn't have it. in fact a lot of the ones i've seen dont have them.
Best movie ever made...with the best car ever built....the great Jerry Reed and Jackie Gleason...Burt Reynolds...and wow Miss Sally Field....now that`s a movie
@jparment1 The name of this song is "Bandit Express" performed by Lee Greenwood. It was originally on Smokey and the Bandit 3. Personally, I like this better than anything else Greenwood has done. But thats just me.
Hey all I have a few question anyone have the ending song when the third movied and the series ended whats it called "Ticket to the Wind" and there is another one in there done by the same band it happens or shall I say the background music during the part where Jr was climbing on the bandits car to get the fish some one called it I think "It aint the gold" anyone have any idea where I can find this song if so plz hit this post up.
You'll have to find the soundtrack. The singer's name is John Stewart (who passed away in January 2009). He wrote DayDream Believer for the Monkees and was a member of the Kingston Trio. Ticket for the Wind is an outstanding song. But as far as I know it is only on the Smokey 3 soundtrack. Ain't Got the Gold I think may be on one of Stewart's albums.
I also am looking for "Ticket For The Wind", char00079.
However I just dragged the movie in Windows movie maker, cut away all the rest (including the first notes because there's still movie sound in there) and converted it to MP3.
PM me your email address and I'll send it to you if you want. At least it's something to keep you happy untill you get your hands on the original version.
the only problem with making a new smokey and the bandit film is that Jerry Reed A K A SNOWMAN no longer exsists and is now driving and singing in that big rig in the sky
@wornout13 I agree completely... leave the classics alone, don't remake them. Instead re-release them to show the people of this generation what movies are MEANT TO BE LIKE!! At least Volition is doing something to promote Burt Reynolds though... he's the mayor of Steelport in Saints Row The Third... COMPLETE WITH BANDIT HAT.
@ShirakoX35 i have givin this alot of though and as for stars i though toby keith could redo the song and play snowman. can't replace jerry by any means and i don't think he would try, but he'd be good i think. i think ryan reynolds could do the bandit. the only one i can't get is sheriff justice. lets face it. jackie gleason destroyed that roll for anyone. no one can play it after him. he is a comic god!!! and the car. the new phoenix t/a from trans am depot and kevin morgan!
I always heard that Reed "bailed out " this movie because he thought so much of Gleason. Reynolds does actually appear at the very end ina cameo. Anyone interested...Lee Greenwood sings this song. Mr. "God Bless the USA" himself.
This song from the 3rd movie was good I liked it.....My favorite of all 3 Bandit movies is obviously the first one......the 2nd and 3rd movies were ok.... but were not as good as the orginal.
the whole reason "smokey IS the bandit" was filmed that way was because Reynolds refused to be in it so gleason said he'd do both roles. after the test audience saw the original cut and didn't quite get it, the movie was reshot with jerry reed in gleason's place.
also, its mentioned on wikipedia for "smokey and the bandit part 3" about the gleason cut, and you can see a fat stuntman during the scene where the bandit (reed) lasso's the shark off of bufords car about 1/2 way through the movie. they didn't reshoot all of the stunt shots so the stuntman in that shot was fat because he was supposed to be doubling gleason, not reed.
well they kind of did actually. they made 4 "bandit" movies in the early 90s with Brian Bloom and a black dodge stealth. while not related to the original S&B movies it is quite obvious where the inspiration came from
Anybody ever hear that at ONE point they considered the second movie being called "Smokey IS the Bandit" and Jackie Gleason and Burt would've switched roles?
A fascinating thing to consider.
And what happened to that NEW "Bandit" film from the "American Pie" boys that was going to have Bandit training a young group of wannabe bootleggers in the finer points of evading the law?
There WAS a "Smokey and the Bandit 3" but that IS what it was called.
Cledus "Snowman" Snow (Jerry Reed) was The Bandit in "Smokey and the Bandit 3" so it wouldnt have made any sense for IT to be called "Smokey IS the Bandit".
You're PROBABLY right dustysxe, but as the new "Starsky & Hutch" and "Star Trek" films showed it IS possible to make a cool, updated, and entertaining modern version of a beloved classic. It just takes the right talent behind, and in front of the cameras.
actually it was S&B 3 that was supposed to be smokey IS the bandit, and they filmed the whole movie that way but the test audience didn't get it so they reshot it with jerry reed. i would love to see a copy of the original with gleason as the bandit.
Where did you come across this information that it was 3 not 2 where "Smokey IS The Bandit" was the idea and if HERE(On youtube) could you post a link?
I dont mind being proven wrong if I AM, as I'm a strong believer in TRUTH, not PREFERENCE but I want to make sure that your version IS correct before filing it under FACTUAL. (No Offense)
you got a point it also had great laughs too it was funny but stunts were good (almost as good as the first and second), and it was really funny too. Although most films with Jackie Gleason Burt Reynolds and Jerry Reed were funny. especially as a group.
