watching fox the other day and it said a new herbie movie is in the making and mat damon is main character.

boersch ·

reckon they will use the new beetle or keep the original herbie?

Anthiron ·

shouldnt herbie be the main charecter?

HotRodMatt ·

VWoA will probably sue them if you can see the roundell in the advertising pictures!

VWFREAK ·

Sounds cool to me.

lil dub ·

Anthiron ·

lil dub ·

i'm too scared to nick ----- i'm such a wanker and i feel kinda bad about it..........argh. argh. urgh. (the sound of me feeling like a dickhead in a public space ie. the library)

Anthiron ·

lol its not like that at all.

lil dub ·

urgh. i know. i have a vague-ness problem though.
i have to write things down more often i think. apologised to brett but seeing as i feel so bad still that means you have to satr in HERBIE THE MUSICAL to make it all better.

I hope it's better then the last Herbie movie. Anyway, they can't really use an NB as Herbie, maybe his younger cousin.

That movie made in 1997 was Border Line OK. A lot of people bagged it, but you have to remember it is a Kid's show.
I watched it with a self confessed Herbie INFOMOLOGIST and he bagged the Story line and how they changed the History of Herbie. So I told him it's a kids show and they wouldn't know any better, but he still kept ARGUING with me. :cussing he was very enraged 🙂 hahaha

hhehee I like watching the Herbie movies... yeah the story line does get a bit dodgy... but most little kids haven't seen the original herbie so wouldn't even notive... will be interesting to see whether they use the old herbie or a new beetle...

Flying VW ·

It will be a Old Beetle for Sure.
Besides Herbie isn't going to be very good if the Windows and Door locks are jammed, and the Actors catch a Cold because the Seat warmers aren't working.

:beer

blutopless2 ·

nah..... have heard its gonna be a new beetle... :thumb:thumb

hahahaha.... relax people... only stirrin... lol 🙂

have heard it will be the "type 1" ... with lots of new beetles included in the story line.

Flying VW ·

I've heard, that these cars are waiting to be made into Herbies for the Movie.

warb ·

alot of work needed on this one..

Flying VW ·

YEAH hahaha.
Thats suppose to be the EXAMPLE Herbie.

Will this link work...? I was emailed it a while ago.

baybuscamperkid ·

thats an amazing number of ragtops in the one place! hopefully they dont destroy too many:cussing

vwguru ·

hopefully it is the old beetle with a scat engine so they dont have to use computer edits to make him do a wheelie. wish they had of said when it would be released.

I have started chatting on www.newbeetle.org. A member on there claims to be actually working on the movie as we speak (or type). He says that the original styling Herbie will be used, but with a twist. The movie will be set now and will also feature the new beetle ....... best of both worlds if you ask me ...... herbie and his young brother !

Flying VW ·

Yeah that's what I heard, if you look in the back of the photo I posted you can see several yellow new Beetles. 🙂
