That's definitely the face I make when Keanu jumps out of my moving car.

There should be a special craigslist subgroup.. road-trip-buddy-missed-connections.

I have a work commute neighbor. If I don’t see them it’s cause I’m late or they are. Weirdly comforting to have one. That’s weird right?
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
Meh, there's a jeeper I wave to on my commute if I'm in my jeep too. Same spot every day. It's the little things I guess

reeves' performance as klaatu was the only good thing about that remake. he truly comes off as alien - much more so than michael rennie.

James Hong steals the show.

Fuck yeah. Speeding 120mph in the middle of nowhere together for an hour straight without stopping… that’s a bond for life.

A random car and I exchanged positions several times on a 130-mile stretch of highway, got off the same interchange but he got off at a 1/2

different exit. Felt weird to say Goodbye. Hope you're well random traveller! 2/2

Yeah been there. We used each other's slipstream every few minutes, a fun drive. I think the other driver even waved as he left the motorway

Highway buddy, not road trip buddy

I once drive the length of an entire state with a driving buddy. God bless you road warrior!

One time while driving south through the whole of Iowa I kept with a Chevy Silverado doing 90 for easily 3 hours.

If I’m driving for a while, I’ll often overtake until I find someone who uses the lanes correctly and stay close. Helps me relax more.

Most people are driving too fast, and the rest are driving too slow. Every time!

Gotta find your pace car.

It’s mainly because they’re being predictable and I know they won’t do something dumb.

Took me a while to understand that the "roadtrip buddy" is in fact in a different car and not next to him.

It's like that one kid you clicked with on the playground. Then parading ways forever

Asshole that won't get off my bumper. Your fancy red and blue lights don't make you important, asshole.

I thought it was a reference to some hitchhiker u picked up & had a great time with & then dropped em off & left to never see 1another again
DidItForScience
Or maybe they pick up hitch-hikers but they drive with a blindfold so they don't disturb their rider's privacy.

I miss you old friend. Our spirits were together but for a short time- and yet- your memory will last with me a lifetime <3 stay blessed <3

I feel like this is more an American thing. I was on a 19 hour road trip once. Dude stuck with me for 9 hours. Farewell road buddy

I've done long drives across multiple states. I had road buddies for 3-4 days at a time.

Road trips are pretty American, Europe just isn't big enough.
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
You could see so much in that one road trip though. Start in France, go to the top of Italy and back, spend a couple days in Switzerland, (1
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
Take your time exploring Germany, see the Netherlands and Belgium, then hop over to the UK.. you could stretch that out for weeks.
MemeusCalgar
Yeah, weird massive differences. Europeans think 100 miles is a long distance, Americans think 100 years is a long time.
CascadiaPNW
And Europe has trains

Longest ride I ever gave to anybody was about 17 hours. The guy's dog slept in the backseat except for the occasional rest to stop

Nods as good as a wink.

This was referencing to another car which just happened to travel the same route at the same speed for an extended period of time.

Yeah, another poster said that. I just threw in a non sequitur. I've driven across country twice. Lots of anonymous buddies.

If anything deserves a remake...

Funny story. It's free on YouTube. I hadn't watched it for 30 years. This movie holds up RIDICULOUSLY well. Amazing Costumes/Sets, good -

- performances, amazing practical makeup. The effects are 80s and the story is for kids, but you can really tell people enjoyed making this

Remake WITH Dolph Lungren, or deal's off.

Frank. "Skeletor" Langella. Oscar-worthy performance.

Heck the ratings and watch it. It's a good scifi popcorn flick.

The movie sucks. keanu was ok though

Original is better

Jaden smith was such a whiny little bitch. Different casting, that movie could have rocked
