Any genre is fine~ I know: Road Trip, Eurotrip, Without a Paddle, Cars, Joy Ride, RV, We’re the Millers, Due Date, Paul, Meet the Fockers, Toy Story (was debated, they count as road trip movies if you think about it), Rat Race,

neutral · AI labelView post →Adele Lim herself calls her film JOY RIDE a B-movie. After writing on “Crazy Rich Asians,” she left the sequel. She was expected to co-write it with (white, male) Peter Chiarelli, whose offer was $800K-$1M. Her offer was about 1/8 of that: approximately $110,000. She's also VERY funny:

It reminds me of 2 films, Duel and Joy Ride, where gas stations on desolate highways become terrifying. And in those films, gas was still cheap! The horror at the Pump ….
neutral · AI labelView post →Joy Ride is a Christmas movie too.
neutral · AI labelView post →So many horror movies centered on ppl traveling roads, but not sure they necessarily qualify as road movies or folk horror. Spielberg's Duel, The Hills Have Eyes, Wrong Turn, Joy Ride, Highwaymen, Death Proof. Psychomania's in All The Haunts Be Ours; undead bikers but is it a road movie? Not sure.

I should have done like Catholic mass cantor arms for everyone to come in together on “and twinnnns!”

Thousandth Street (2013) - A cyberpunk short film I found during last weeks Short challenge. A Taxi Driver (2017) - What a brilliant surprise gem of a movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →IDK why I picked Joy Ride (2001) as a "movie to cheer me up" it's stressful and shit Being a horror fan is like being that butterfly meme and you're like "is this a feel good movie?"

positive · AI labelView post →The first is that while I think the latest spate of AsAm works — Joy Ride, Beef, EEAAO — challenge the model minority perfectionism of early AsAm film and something like CRA, I also think it’s important to recognize that BLT - released in 2002 - was one of the first to do so.

neutral · AI labelView post →You are correct on the couple part and the murderer aspect. Basically I envision this as a slasher film that I describe as a combo of Joy Ride and Duel and Robert Englund of course is the murderous truck driver.

neutral · AI labelView post →Family film night film is Road Kill, or Joy Ride if you prefer. Might not be John Dahl’s finest, but my memory is that’s it’s a proper good time.
positive · AI labelView post →Not Road Trip, Joy Ride. A film so bad I couldn’t remember the name of it for the 90 minutes it took to watch the film.

neutral · AI labelView post →Now Revisiting: JOY RIDE (2001) VERDICT: This movie still rules. Great concept and tight script by Clay Tarver and JJ ABRAMS (!!). Feels like Hitchcock for the MTV crowd. Steve Zahn at the top of his game and one of Paul Walker’s better performances. Streaming on Amazon Prime.

It's hilarious but also has a lot of heart & it's even a bit sad. But it's a terrific movie about the bonds of friendship & family. So much fun!!
positive · AI labelView post →Just rewatched Joy Ride (2023) tonight and it is as fucking hilarious as I thought it was when I watched it in the movie theatre. Will definitely become an “on rotation” movie.
