Burt Reynolds dies at 82

[360Rocket]

A cool dude for sure and sold more Pontiacs than any dealer in America. I had the pleasure of working for Burt on his horse ranch in my teens right before I left for USMC boot camp. He will certainly be missed by us fans of Trans Ams, and fun movies.

That's too bad  . Certainly an icon for the Trans Am!

R.I.P. Burt.

Here are some quotes from two of our favorite movies to remember Burt. Obviously this stuff is not politically correct today.

 

From Smokey and the Bandit

Bandit: Oh I love your suits. It must have been a bitch to get a 68 Extra Fat and a 12 Dwarf."

 

Bandit: Hold on, Now just wait a minute - why do you need all that beer for? 
Little Enos: Because he's thirsty, dummy!"

 

Bandit: I'm gonna need a speedy car... 
[Watches as Little Enos begins counting out money] 
Bandit: Speedier than that... 
[Watches as Little Enos counts out more money] 
Bandit: Speedier than that. 
Little Enos: [Mumbling] I'd like to kick his ass just once. 

 

Cledus Snow: Hey Bandit. Me an' Fred got a question. 
Bandit: What you an' Fred want? 
Cledus Snow: How come we's doin' this? 
Bandit: Why d'you ask? 
Cledus Snow: Well they said it ain't never been done before. 
Bandit: W'hell thats the reason, son. 
Cledus Snow: [shrugs] That's good with Fred. 
Bandit: [laughing] Ten-four 

 

Buford T. Justice: Well, I've said it before and I'm going to say it again... There ain't no way, no way, that you could come from my loins."

 

Junior: Daddy, I got to pee-pee. 
Buford T. Justice: Swallow it. I'm busy!"

 

From Smokey and the Bandit II

'Bandit': I'm the only guy in the world who could drink up a Trans-Am. 
Carrie: Can you imagine Roy Rogers selling Trigger for a 6-pack? 
Bandit': No.

 

Carrie: Let's face it, Sinatra sang My Way and you sang Let's Do Something Cheap and Superficial. 

 

Junior: Daddy, look at that big ugly alligator 
Buford T. Justice: That reminds me; I gotta call yo' mama tonight.

Junior: You know, Daddy, I like this place. All the 'gators and snakes and stuff. Why don't we move down here? 
Buford T. Justice: Why don't YOU move down here? 
Junior: Oh no, Daddy, I ain't NEVER leavin' home, that's a promise. 
Buford T. Justice: Don't you ever, EVER threaten yo' daddy like that again!"

 

Buford T. Justice: Now I'm gonna go home and kick yo' momma in the butt. 

 

Buford T. Justice: Ya know if Junior is able to get up in the morning, tie his shoelaces and take a pee, I'm not proud. I'm amazed. 

 

Cledus Snow: [Bandit is being chased by a lot of police and Cledus is heading straight for them in his truck] Tell me, how many trucks do you see? 
'Bandit': I see one, unless I've been drinking. 
Cledus Snow: [yells in the CB] Okay, boys... do it, to it! 
Bandit: [19 trucks emerge from behind Snowman's truck] Well, I must be commode-hangin' drunk, coz I see about twenty trucks. Ha ha!"

If you liked SATB, you'll love HOOPER starring Burt Reynolds and Jan Michael Vincent. Of course Cannonball Run kicked ass as well. Here is a hilarious scenes from Hooper.
