Get ready to go on another adventure with the Griswolds because
National Lampoon's Vacation is back with yet another installment. This time the story arc will follow Clark's son, Rusty, who now has a
family of his own that he decides to take on a road trip. David Dobkin
(Wedding Crashers, Fred Claus) is already attached to produce and
possibly direct the upcoming film while New Line is meeting with
writers to find somebody to pen the script.
Keep in mind that the first three Vacation movies (Vacation, European Vacation and Christmas Vacation) were all written by John
Hughes and turned out quite well. By that same token Vegas Vacation
was not written by Hughes and turned out pretty crappy. I can only
assume Hughes wasn't working on another Vacation script because he had better things to do than write straight-to-DVD movies. (or did he? Hello Beethoven's 4th!)
I'd also like to do a video recap of how the actors who played the
Griswold kids never looked remotely similar to actors from the
previous movie - it was like Stevie Wonder did the casting. For all we
know they might cast Ice Cube and hope to cash in on both people that enjoyed Are We There Yet? I can only hope Chevy Chase isn't drunk enough to sign on for this piece of garbage. Your thoughts?
