Huge news that, if true, could produce a film that either rejuvenates one of the best comedy franchises in movie history, or could destroy the film industry forever. Yes, I’m talking about the fact that New Line/Warner Bros. have signed Wedding Crashers director David Dobkin to produce and possibly direct a National Lampoon’s Vacation sequel.

Now, I’m someone who doesn’t even consider Vegas Vacation a part of the franchise. It’s why I’ve enjoyed referring to the Griswold’s misadventures over the years as, “The Vacation Trilogy.” After all, “Trilogy” has a nice ring to it and aside from Rusty’s Mr. Papageorgio subplot and the casting of Marisol Nichols as daughter Audrey Griswold… Vegas Vacation was about as much fun as arriving at Wally World only to find out it’s closed for remodeling.

And the rumor is that the next installment will actually focus not on Clark & Ellen, but on son Rusty and his new family. Chevy Chase may only have a bit part in the film, if that. And so, this led us to curate the following list of classic Clark Griswold clips. At the very least, they’ll remind us of what’s made the National Lampoon’s Vacation series so everlasting. At the most, New Line/Warner Bros. and Mr. Dobkin will stumble across this page, tear up from laughter, realize what they’re about to embark on and then either make a kickass Griswold family vacation for a new generation… or scrap the whole idea altogether.

Listropolis’ Take:

Considering these are my all-time favorite movies, I LOVE this post. If you are a fan of the Vacation franchise, you’ll probably end up bookmarking this and coming back to it often.
