Ricky Bobby

I've just seen the movie 'Talledega Nights', and found it very amusing (genuinely funny). The shots of the Nascar racing were great. I'm going to have a look at your sport next time I'm in the US.
Best Regards,
Alan Cotterell

I saw Talledega nights too. It was a great movie and I would recommend it to anyone. Just keep in mind that the movie is somewhat unrealistic.

Merged the two Ricky Bobby threads together. Did this movie just hit overseas or something?

Yeh opened last week in Aus

Saw it Friday night, alot better than I expected, and Will Ferral actually was funny! :P

'my grandmother is turning 88, what should I get her for her birthday, it's a pretty old age, bla, bla...'
'Get her a Coffin.'

Found it interesting at the start of the movie where Ricky is driving the Laughing Clown car, those cars appear to be around circa 1996? (painted over headlights and taillights, old style monte carlo, I think there was a Pontic aswell..), and then the next season is the 05 season.

I heard one team didn't want to take part because they said it would 'take the sport back 25 years' any ideas who that was? I'm thinking Hendrick, as I don't remember seeing any of his car in it...

the bit where Dale Jr asks for Rickys autograph is pretty funny 'It's for me, I'm a big fan, just don't tell anyone' he was in Cars too...

It's just "Days of Thunder" with comedy really.

Pretty hilarious at times! Still prefer DoT myself though!

rcarr has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Saw it today (Saturday) been really wanting to see it!

It was very funny! I normally like Will Ferrell films but my fiance doesnt but I heard her chuckle a good few times!

I really found it funny when Dale Earnhardt jr asks Ricky Bobby for his autograph! I was the only 1 in the cinema to laugh at that 1! Some people just dont know their racing drivers!
