Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDisney worked closely with Volkswagen to promote the sequel. Every each VW dealer had a Bug on display that was made up to look like Herbie, and 300,000 Herbie posters were distributed to dealers to pass on to their customers. If a customer wanted to turn their new Beetle into a Herbie, they could buy a graphics kit from the VW parts department.
- GoofsThe model year of Volkswagen used for Herbie shifts back and forth throughout the film. It's most visible when the side rear windows change size from smaller (1963) to larger (1966).
- Quotes
Alonzo Hawk: [speaking to his secretary about a group of men in his office] Who're these clowns?
Secretary: They're your new lawyers, Mr. Hawk. You fired the others yesterday.
Alonzo Hawk: Okay, fellas, now I want to tear down the Steinmetz firehouse. Okay?
Lawyer-Second Team: Just a moment, Mr. Hawk. Do you have the necessary permit?
Alonzo Hawk: [suddenly becomes angry] Of course I don't have a permit! I don't even own the land yet!
Lawyer-Second Team: Sorry, Mr. Hawk. Such an action would only jeopardize your entire legal standing of your new building. We can't permit...
Alonzo Hawk: [shouts angrily] Will you get outta here? I didn't hire you to tell me what I can't do, I hired you to tell me how I could do it! GOOOOOO!
[lawyers run out of the office]
- ConnectionsEdited into The Green Fog (2017)
Seeing this movie again, I ended up loving it all over again and think it is a pretty good family movie.
A weird thing about this movie is that even though it was filmed in 1973, it looks like it was made in the mid sixties. I guess it was Stephanie Powers's character's sense of style and the heavy use of sets and rear projection.
The Volkswagon beatle has always had a persona to it and the Herbie movies highlight it.
"The Love Bug" and "Herbie Rides Again" are great examples of the child like spirit of Disney at their best.
