Happy 4th of July

Hey, my fellow Americans! Jon Donahue here, I’m currently typing this in London as we shoot a movie about a real American Hero called, “Capt. Phillips”…so, needless to say, I won’t be able to celebrate the 4th of July in America tomorrow with grilling and fireworks…BUT I CAN celebrate with plenty of pints and my favorite Patriotic films! So here we go, click ahead for the countdown!

4.) Team America: World Police

Gather the kids around for this hilarious puppet show, complete with more F-Bombs than “Goodfellas”, plenty of puppet sex, and some toe-tappin’ music from the creators of “South Park”. My favorite song? ‘America, F%*# Yeah!’…what’s more Patriotic than that?

3.) The Great Escape

In a prisoner of war camp, Steve McQueen, James Garner & company celebrate the 4th by marching through the camp, playing ‘Yankee Doodle Dandy’, complete with a make-shift cannon, drum & a flute…and who’s more American than Steve McQueen?

2.) Rocky IV

Rocky Balboa VS. Ivan Drago…this movie sweats America! …and who can forget James Brown singing ‘Living in America’?! Need I say more? No, I don’t.

1.) JAWS

A great white shark attacks helpless swimmers at a fictional New England town called, Amity…on 4th of July weekend! **Before you watch Jaws 2, Please remember to wait at least 30 minutes after you are done eating your B-B-Q…or you’ll get cramps.

Well, there you have it, and you thought I was gonna recommend “Independence Day” or “The Patriot”, right?! Well, I didn’t…but I DO have a bonus film suggestion that you can pop in after you’ve finished enjoying the first four movies: ”Top Gun”. VERY PATRIOTIC!

Let the fire works begin!
