    I saw this in a movie about a bus that had to SPEED around a city, keeping its SPEED over fifty, and if its SPEED dropped, it would explode! I think it was called, ‘The Bus That Couldn’t Slow Down.’

      Sounds like Speed 2, except with a bus instead of a boat

    Someone thought of the line “Pop quiz, hot shot!” and said, “I must make a movie around that.”

    So yeah I agree. I was pretty amazed when I rewatched this with my daughter (we’re running through the “classics”) and found that it held up incredibly well in pretty much every respect.

      It always feels like old stuff was better, but 99% of old stuff is forgotten. It’s only the “classics” that are remembered, because they were the exceptions not the rule. We’ll have classics of today too, but we’ll only know what they are in hindsight. It won’t be the Marvel garbage though.
