You know, the movie "Up" has gotten me to thinking about how many of the classic films we know and love feature balloons. I think this video says it all.



When are we going to get the AFI tribute to the 100 Greatest Balloon Movies?

"A naked American man stole my balloons."

Wasn't there a balloon scene in Rat Race? I think the cow gets tangled up in it. One of the funniest movies I've seen!

That.. was.. awesome!

That video was great. The final Casablanca scene was the best!

a very overlooked and underrated film i just watched: 'Arizona Dream' - with Johnny Depp and Vincent Gallo.

there's a symbolic red balloon floating around in numerous scenes. i highly recommend this one if you like directing work very akin to that of Terry Gilliam. it's almost like the movie Jesus' Son as if Gilliam directed it.

umm...hello...

Ahem.

2 balloons in the movie 9 to 5

In M, when the little girl's abduction is signified by the balloon floating away.

Classic scene.

"Your testicles are not unlike a balloon..."

Does anyone remember the episode of The Critic where Jay takes his son to see The Red Balloon II and is so relieved that he can see a foreign film instead of American crap, and it ends up being an action movie. "Red Balloon: Revenge of the Balloon" or something like that was the name of it.

First scene that came to my mind when I saw this thread.
