Answer: Alabama

"Sweet Home Alabama" is a 2007 comedy about Melanie Carmichael, whose ambitions took her from her Alabama roots to New York City. She's now engaged to the mayor's son (Patrick Dempsey). In order for this to happen, she's got to go back to Alabama and divorce her redneck husband (Josh Lucas). But, once back home, she finds she's still in love with her husband.

Answer: She rides on a showboat.

"Showboat" was released in 1951 and was based on the stage musical of the same name. This was actually the third version of this story. It was a beautiful and entertaining love story, but also dealt with the subject of racial discrimination. The movie included the popular song, "Old Man River".

Answer: She gets on the "up" escalator.

"Up" was released in 2009. The movie used a technique called Disney Digital 3-D. It was nominated for an Academy Award for best picture. The touching portrayal of Carl and Ellie's love story was contrasted with the very funny pack of dogs guarding explorer Charles Muntz. I also enjoyed the character of Wilderness Scout Russell.

"Airplane!" was a very funny movie, released in 1980, and starred Robert Hays and Julie Hagerty. It also included funny performances by Leslie Nielsen, Robert Stack, Peter Graves and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, among others. It had some very famous one-liners, and it introduced the world to Nielsen's talents as a comic actor (he had previously been considered a serious actor.)

"Chariots of Fire" was released in 1981 and was based on a true story. The story takes place at the 1924 Olympics, in Paris. The film's title was inspired by the line, "Bring me my chariot of fire," from the William Blake poem adapted into the popular British hymn "Jerusalem". The movie won the Academy Award for Best Picture, in 1982.

6. Moviella decides she'd like to take a trip to a state whose name is the title of a musical movie. This charming 1955 musical tells of the romance of Laurey and Curly, and the people of their town.

Answer: Ship

"Planes, Trains and Automobiles" is a 1987 comedy starring John Candy and Steve Martin.

They are somewhat of an "odd couple", and their differences make their journey a very funny one.

"Troop Beverly Hills" is a 1989 comedy starring Shelley Long. The story is of a newly-separated wife who becomes the leader of her daughter's Wilderness Girls den.
