In the US, Wally World, is slang for Walmart.

This and Christmas vacation are just comedy magic.

My dad used to always say “good talk Russ” to us after a conversation. None of us are named Russ 😂😂

I still call Walmart Wally world because of this movie😂😂 does anybody else call it Wally World??

Boris Vallejo isn't "va-LEE-joe." It's "va-LEH-hoe" in English, or in his native language (Spanish), "va-YAY-ho." I've met him at conventions, gotten some of his artwork autographed. He's HUGE in fantasy and gamer circles, one of the most prolific artists of all time.

Dude, you need to check out the original 1977 Star Wars poster. The Vacation poster is a parody of it.

Holiday Road is one of the best things in the film!

I stil start every drive to a destination that is more than 2 hours away with Holiday Road playing an obnoxious volume.

I still try to view Christmas Vacation every season.

The best shower scene since Psycho.

Along with Fletch, this is the quintessential Chevy Chase movie.

The funniest part of this Vacation Franchise is that it shares the revolving-kids phenomenon with the JAWS Franchise. 😂

my dad always bought dvds, he had a whole wall full by the time he died. i watched most of the behind the scenes, but minty always has stuff i never heard before.

Vacation is played in regular rotation on cable and it does feature Im So Excited in the scenes

The first time I saw Vacation was when it was broadcast on CBS-TV.  Edited for content, but they still played "I'm So Excited" during Christie's scenes.  I never knew they later replaced it.

Absolutely love Christie Brinkley in this movie. 😍

Here's another piece of trivia for you. In the opening credits of the tv show Married With Children, there is a scene where they show the Chicago skyline. And a highway with cars traveling down it. That scene was directly lifted from the "Vacation" movie. You can see the Griswald's station wagon in the clip.

Around here, Wally World is what we call WalMart.

There's a Gas station in America called Wally's it's basically a Buc-ee's but I always felt like the mascot should have been a Moose 🫎 instead of the Bear.

Wally World technically is a real theme park, as it was filmed at Valencia California's Six Flags Magic Mountain theme park. (Edit: sorry, didn't realize someone had already commented on this.)
