Ed Helms is Rusty Griswold in National Lampoon's Vacation sequel

I knew they were doing another one, but I didn't know any details.

Ed Helms was on Nerdist and said he's starring in the sequel as Rusty. Christina Applegate is playing his wife, Leslie Mann is playing grown up Audrey and he said they would be stopping in to see the grandparents (Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo).

I'm not hating this.

I think this can be pulled off.

 

I'll see it. But not having Ramis is going to be a big problem.

Leslie Mann? Let's hope Audrey turned out as super slutty as she was trending.

 

Would there have been anything wrong with Anthony Michael Hall and Dana Barron? Or Johnny Galecki and Juliette Lewis?

 

I think it's actually a federal law now that in each successive 'Vacation' movie, a new pair of actors must play the Griswold kids. It's a one-and-done role.

 

Again?




Or perhaps

 

Dana Barron also played Audrey in Christmas Vacation 2: Cousin Eddie's Island Adventure. I wish I didn't know that.

She's also still hotter than Leslie Mann:

 

Maybe Jane Krakowski can make a cameo. I didn't see Randy Quaid on the IMDB page, so maybe he's in the "too batshit crazy to work with" category.

I would watch that. It will just be a matter of time until the show runner decides working with Chase isn't worth the headache.

 

Cousin Vicki: I'm going steady, and I French kiss.
Audrey: So, everybody does that.
Cousin Vicki: Yeah, but Daddy says I'm the best at it.


Best joke in any National Lampoon movie

 

Always good to see Hollywood's creative geniuses come up with new ideas.

 

Agreed, but this and Fletch Won are ones that I actually want to see.
