It Takes Two (1988)

This was a guilty pleasure as a kid! It has never even come out on DVD. Would love a Blu-ray release.

You gonna die... lol

Amazed this film doesnt get more love as it was an HBO staple I watched tons growing up... cool car, hot saleswoman...

it IS available in digital on Amazon only (also free apparently for prime viewing)... $20 for HD... no MA

I like it too and bought the HD digital copy at Amazon. I can't remember if I paid $20 for it but Amazon is the only digital retailer that has it. I would love a blu-ray release but I doubt it will ever get one. It's owned by MGM so there's still a tiny chance one of the smaller companies will license it some day.

Not just any cool car but arguably the most iconic car of the 80s: the Lamborghini Countach. The Internet Movie Cars Database says the movie used a replica.

I think KL Insider said this one has some serious music rights issues preventing anyone from going near it (it only had a VHS release IIRC).

Yeah i saw this two years ago on MGM HD, I would buy it if it came out on Blu-Ray.

Crap, didn't see this! I started a new thread for this movie! Mod, please delete it if you'd prefer...

Never seen it, but it's currently streaming in 720p on Tubi. Their licenses unfortunately do not last long in a lot of cases.

edit: watched it. The first night I watched through the first 45 minutes or so and was too sleepy to keep it playing. But by the next day I'd completely forgotten what the story was about and just ended up watching it again since it's a really short comedy. Pretty decent comedy and the streaming transfer looked good to me.

[Show spoiler]It's actually the second comedy I've watched this week where the main male character is getting married to someone he's kind of annoyed by, is tempted by another woman, and then at the very last second ends up staying with the woman he's engaged with.

A match made in heaven is about to take a hell of a detour! Travis Rogers (George Newbern, Father of the Bride) and Stephi Lawrence (Leslie Hope, Men at Work) are small-town childhood sweethearts who are about to be married. Maybe. Stephi’s rich family is planning a lavish ceremony, and it’s giving Travis a pair of cold feet! While preparations for the wedding proceed, Travis takes off for Dallas to buy the car of his dreams. His riotous adventures behind the wheel of the super-fast sports car and in the bed of a beautiful blonde (Kimberly Foster, One Crazy Summer) take some hair-raising turns—and make the possibility of a wedding more remote the closer it gets. Hysterical supporting performances by Anthony Geary (UHF) and Barry Corbin (Career Opportunities) add to the matrimonial mayhem. Directed by David Beaird (My Chauffeur, Pass the Ammo), It Takes Two is a full-throttle, non-stop comedy that will keep you on the edge of your seat laughing!

Mission accomplished. Day One for It Takes Two! But for someone like me who’s never pleased, it got me thinking...

Where is Pass The Ammo? No Blu-ray could probably be excused away by Lionsgate (doesn’t mean the excuses would hold water), but there’s not even a DVD of that one. At this rate, restore the movie, drop it on Blu-ray or pass it to a boutique, and let us have this gem.
