It totally reminds me of a movie, but I'm not sure which one. So the thought's always like "That reminds me of...?" Which film am I thinking of?
um...the Graduate?
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

It reminds me of that scene in Deep Rising when Treat Williams, Famke Janssen, and Kevin J. O'Connor are in the elevator with "The Girl from Ipanema" playing on muzak.
Well, the Geiko cavman-at-the-airport commercial does have some airy techno music for its Muzak.

Funnily enough I think that is the Muzak arrangement of the Royskopp song.
Have spent the entire day watching bad horror flicks on tv. I'm actually quite entertained. Final Destination 2, on right now, is practically a live action Road Runner cartoon - ETA, make that a cross between Road Runner and Itchy and Scratchy - , while Bride of Chucky was surreally bizarre.
L&O's Kathryn Erbe being in...crap, what was it...something about Echoes...with Kevin Bacon pretty much puts paid to that game for all time, given the way the show cycles through every actor working.
Stir of Echoes. Thanks, P-C! That one wasn't actually all that bad.
Stir of Echoes.
Bride of Chucky was surreally bizarre.
I love Bride of Chucky for its bizarre surreality.
We just got Hot Fuzz on DVD. YAY!
Yeah, Robin, it does remind me of "The Graduate"(which I have seen at least ten times) but I thought maybe there was something a bit more...spot-on. Maybe there is not one, specific, alienated-guy-at-airport moment they are calling back to. Maybe it's a bunch. (and, yes, I think I'm ridiculous, thinking about a caveman commercial that much.)
I don't recognize it, but it always stuck me as though there should be something going on that I wasn't picking up on. Because seriously, otherwise it makes even less sense.
