The Bandit
 

The Bandit, Burt Reynolds passed away at 82, ugh. Rest in peace sir.

Hope he's buried in a Black Trans Am. Rest In Peace sir, Godspeed.

His best role was in Deliverance.RIP Burt.

Never be another Burt Reynolds. Was he the best actor in the world.? debatable. Did he sell tickets at the theatre, sure did. He made fun movies, RIP

I know he has done tons of other movies ... and I am a fan of most of those movies but for me ... Him and that black and gold S/E T/A just hooked me to hot rods... He will always be the Bandit in my eyes. Between him and Gleason with their smart mouths i am quite sure i got that from them as well. Bandit out... EASTBOUND and DOWN 10 / 10 on the side Rest In a Pontiac sir..

Thanks for all the memories & R.I.P. :(

Rest In Peace, Mr Reynolds.

Regarding the original Bandit Trans Ams:

Sad news. By coincidence there was a double-bill of Smokey I and II on TV last night and I ended up watching them both again for the first time in many years, probably since I was a teenager. Still remember being in awe of the black T/A.....
I think Buford T Justice was the surprise star of those movies, but Reynolds was perfectly cast in the Bandit role. RIP.
