Another Griswold Vacay For National Lampoon
Filed under: Film Flickers
We'll be exceptionally surprised if this DOESN'T go direct to DVD!
National Lampoon is reviving the Vacation franchise with a new movie. Rejoice Chevy Chase! More work for you!
The new storyline will find the famous Griswold family in a new era, with son Rusty all grown up with a family of his own to take on a trip. Studio New Line Cinema is in talks with writers starting this week, and there is reportedly an open door for both Chevy and Beverly D'Angelo, who played Chevy's on-screen wife, to return.
We can already tell this is going to suck and it hasn't even been written yet. But at least it is an attempt at creating an original movie, not just another remake

Phish, I'm looking forward to it! Huge fan of his old lampoon flicks.
Yeah????????
I hope it's written as well as the old ones were, I'll give it a try, those were REALLY funny (ok, just the first 2 - Xmas vacay kinda went off-track somewhere) Hopefully it won't turn out like today's "comedies"
I love those movies, I bet it'll be funnier than the others … hopefully, Cousin Eddie returns too!
All I know Clark is my teeth have never been whiter and my garden is spittin' out 50lb. tomatoes!
I loved the Christmas Lampoon movie (I still watch it every year at Christmas time!) Hope this new one is as funny.
this is the lampoon story line i have been waiting for. rusty was the hottest red head …(we call them 'ranga's ' in australia) and ten to fifteen years later…. we want more!!!!!!!!!!! stilll love chevy, stil love rusty….give us some love…give us the ultimate christmas, again.
THOSE WERE CLASSIC COMEDIES.
IF IT'S DONE RIGHT, THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE REALLY GOOD.
i hope it's true to tradition. Those movies are all funny! Who can't relate their own dorky family to the Griswolds?!
i love chevy
Perez - you suck - Love National Lampoons Vacation.
Some of the funniest movies EVER made! Can't wait to see new movie!
It would be great to see Anthony Michael Hall back in the role of the son. Wonder if it's possible…
It can't be any worse than Little Fockers.
if it's done right it should be great….those movies are classics so eat a dick perez!!!
OLD PEOPLE!
Re: Isabella – Agreed
omg dooo it..
ur on crack perez!!
I can't wait!!! Bad or not, its going to be cool!
I say give it a chance. Everyone loves the Griswolds.
Its gonna be awesome. Shut the fuck up perez. You have the worst taste in Everything, The Vacation movies are the best.. all of the are awesome. I was just watching European Vacation and told my bf it would be awesome if they made a new one. And yippie here it comes. I cant wait.
I hope that it is good.. I used to love all of the Griswald National Lampoons… Hillarious. I really loved the Vegas one.. hahaha..
I luv those movies! They need Randy Quaid in it also.
Doesn't look like Randy Quaid will make an appearance in this movie. Very disappointing! Boo-hoo! I love the vacation movies! Can't wait!
Some things are better left alone
What, in this new movie he EATS his family and the car?!!?? LOSE WEIGHT, lazybones!!!!
Yeah I love Chevys movies. Lampoon rocks.
Yes bring back Randy Q. also. Can't wait. Love watching all the old movies!
Hey, I love these movies. Vegas Vacation wasn't even bad.
Perez you are the one who sucks — you have the WORST taste in everything, so stfu. The vacation franchise had the best movies.. they were so funny.. I still watch Christmas Vacation every year at Xmas! I also think Anthony Michael Hall should come back as Rusty!
Oh man, it won't be the same without Cousin Eddie!!!!!
but yeah, they're all funny..i love Christmas the most
I love these movies!!!! My guilty pleasure!! I hope its awesome
Perez, dude, could you be any more ignorant in the fact that you never EVER research the shit you write about?!?! National Lampoon is NOT attached to this movie. Furthermore, the director of Wedding Crashers is at the helm to produce and possibly direct and co-write. WTF is wrong with you?!?
I was shocked to see Community is listed as having a ratings index that makes it likely to last the season and even possibly be renewed for next season. I really dislike the show. I think the first Vacation is one of the top comedies of all time. In my opinion though Chevy Chase has lost the funny. Just my opinion.
This guy has less than a thimbleful of talent. How the fuck does he get any work?
Love the Vacation Movies. I agree Anthony Michael Hall should come back and the original daughter to. Also cousin Eddie, movie wouldn't be the same w/o him. Long live Clark "Sparky" Wilhelm Griswold, Jr.
what would ur punk ass know about this? it would be great! why wouldnt it be?
Good to really fun!!!
I love that movie!
Im sure it will do well!
Chevy chase is a good actor!
YEAY!
I wonder whether Anthony Michael Hall will reprise his role as well.
NO to Sequel, these guys need a Prequel!
A new writing team has written a Prequel to the Vacation Series titled, "Honeymoon". It follows Clark and Ellen from engagement, to wedding, to Honeymoon, mixed with a present day storyline of Audrey (Juliette Lewis) getting married in Los Angeles. Sounds like a great way to work in the old cast plus introduce the "next generations" Clark Griswald. Thoughts??
