WATCH ALONG: American Graffiti

@Meredith Shivers One thing I've noticed about the movies Ashleigh decides on, is that they're based on her Pateron members (voted by in polls) and the average age of MOST of them MUST be on the younger side. younger Millennials & Gen Z, cause, they will not vote for a movie they've never heard of , let alone seen! That's why even though she's supposed to be going back to watch your "older classic movies" the poll winners seem to get newer & newer. My point is, majority of the movies on your list will NEVER make it to her channel simply cause they're too old. She still hasn't seen classic horror Movies like, "Amityville Horror", "Rosemary's Baby", "Phantasm", "THE OMEN!!" Because they constantly keep losing in polls! And lose to CRAP movies, like "Cabin in the Woods." If it wasn't for her Millennial movie members picking out the old Hollywood B&W classics, we'd never see them. Just my observation & opinion.

A bit of trivia... The license plate on John Milner's yellow 1932 Ford Deuce Coupe is THX 138, in reference to George Lucas' first movie, a dystopian sci-fi flick titled "THX-1138" starring Robert Duvall.

For future reference to Ashleigh wanting movies with sequels or some connection; some great movies are as follows: "Star Trek" and "Star Trek II" with William Shatner "The Abominable Dr. Phibes" and "Dr. Phibes Returns" "Village of the Damned" and "Children of the Damned" both the original "Saludos Amigos" and "The Three Cabelleros" "The Rescuers" and "The Rescuers Down Under" "The Paleface" and "Son of Paleface" "The Whistling" trilogy with Red Skelton "The Austin Powers" trilogy "Father of the Bride" and "Father of the Bride Part II" with Steve Martin "Knives Out" and "The Glass Onion" "An American Tail" and "An American Tail: Fieval Goes West" "Frankenstein" and "Bride of Frankenstein" both the original "Westworld" and "Futureworld" "Now You See Me" and "Now You See Me 2" "The Love Bug" and "Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo" the original "Love Bug" "Legally Blonde" and "Legally Blonde 2" "The Pink Panther" and "Shot in the Dark" both with Peter Sellers "The Brady Bunch" movie and "A Very Brady Sequel" "Appointment with Death", "Evil Under the Sun", and "Death on the Nile" a set of films with Peter Ustinov famously playing the great detective Hercules Poirot The film collaboration of Doris Day and Rock Hudson with "Pillow Talk" and "Lover Come Back", and of course the "Beach Movies" with Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon. You should be sure to watch the ones that have Harvey Lembeck in them playing the character Eric Von Zipper. Sometimes he even steals the movie as that character. You would need to see the movies in release order because there are some running gags throughout the films that, if you saw them out of sync you may get confused. The "Beach Movies" are great viewing for the summer or during the winter if you have the winter blues. A fun fact; the "Beach Movies" were all shot in January out in California. The ones to really see in order are: "Beach Party", "Bikini Beach", "Pajama Party", "Beach Blanket Bingo", "How to Stuff a Wild Bikini", and "The Ghost in the Invisible Bikini"; those are the ones with Harvey Lembeck!
