... is a line from the film - 2001.

It is also a phrase that crops up in many John Landis films. For example:

- Blues Brothers - a giant billboard advertises a King Kong type film called "See You Next Wednesday" following the band's country & western debut.
- American Werewolf in London - it is the name of the porn film showing in Soho.
- Trading Places - a film poster of said name is on the wall of Jamie Lee Curtis' apartment.

You will find many more examples should you decide to search the web smiley - smiley

Blues Shark - For people who like this sort of thing, then this is just the sort of thing they'll like

It crops up in EVERY John Landis movie, somewhere or another...though I don't know if it was lifted from 2001 originally...

Hmmm now there's a statement. So where does it occur in "Animal House"?

I read a website with listing for most of his films and they said that it doesn't come from 2001 and is just coincidence.
