Little Miss Sunshine will be out this summer, starring Greg Kennear, Steve Carell, Alan Arkin, and a yellow Bus.

my bus is gonna be in a movie called Invincible about Vince Papale of the Philadelphia Eagles. I worked 3 days last summer and i could have done more but my real job wouldn't let me have off. So I'll probably see it for a second or two in the movie when it comes out in aug. I'm hoping i see it in there!! |

Seems like a ridiculous movie, but there's a bus in it so I'll have to see it. _________________ 1971 Deluxe Transporter "Winston"

i remember the papale/vermiel days and he played on good teams with jawski. i'd see it. meantime, i did see an early bay last week that caught my eye in john cassavetes' killing of a chinese bookie, or was it woman under the influence. shit, see them both. his outdoor LA movies seem to have a few air-cooled cameos. _________________ When you cross an Irishman, they never forget.

If all bodes well this year then my bus will be in all of my straight to DVD productions. They aren't movies, just travel docs about a guy, his bus and the countries he's traveling through. The bus will be a major character in the DVD's though...just so that I can market it to all of you die hards!! How can you resist...a bus in the Belizean jungle, cruising along the Mexican coast, parked amongst the Mayan ruins of Guatemala or in the markets of Nicaragua.
Coming at the end of 2006, a Boy and his Bus and his dream to travel:

looks like she needs to be serviced judging by THAT frown on her face.
His thoughts are: I wonder if I adjusted the valves before we left...I don't recall. |
