    Is there a movie that John Travolta did not dance in?

  • 2. Want to know it  |  October 23rd, 2009 at 6:44 am

    I don’t know- I haven’t seen them all! Did he dance in The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3?

    I am looking for a movie that John Travolta was in where he was a single parent of a 10-13 yr old girl. He may have bet on a dog fight in which a doberman was nearly killed. The dog was dumped under a bridge and left to die. His daughter found it and began to feed and help it. The dog became her friend. I think Travolta her dad said she couldn’t keep it and she ran away with the dog. Travolta than sets out in search of his daughter. The point was the dog helped both the daughter and the father discover that they mattered to one another.

    Do you recognize this?

    I think the movie you are talking about is ‘Eyes of an Angel’. It was released in 1991 and stars Ellie Raab as the ‘daughter’ of John Travolta.

    John Travolta chooses classy films in general with style and dignity. Wouldn’t say a bad word against him. The only one I didn’t like was “Carrie.” I try to stand up for animal rights now and again.

  • 6. Ricky Hayes  |  November 14th, 2009 at 10:57 pm

    The Boy in the plastic Bubble is not on the list. Also I would like to get this movie on DVD. Does anyone know if it was released on DVD in Digital format. I have found it on DVD but the Quality is like VHS. Thanks for any help

  • 7. Want to know it  |  November 16th, 2009 at 7:13 am

    Hi Ricky. ‘The Boy in the Plastic Bubble’ is not on the list as it was a television movie not a feature film. In my movie lists only films released at the cinemas (feature films) are listed. I’ve had a quick check and cannot find a good quality DVD. I’ve read many people complain that the quality of the DVD is very poor.

  • 8. Jamie  |  November 19th, 2009 at 9:12 pm

    one of my favorite movies was not mentioned, forgot the name..was something like Eulogy for…
    Anybody remember?

  • 9. Want to know it  |  November 20th, 2009 at 1:31 am

    Jamie,

    I’ve had a look and can’t find any movie with the word ‘Eulogy’ that stars John Travolta.

  • 10. Jamie  |  December 20th, 2009 at 8:58 am

    The movie Powder is not listed.

  • 11. Want to know it  |  December 22nd, 2009 at 4:49 am

    Hi Jamie,

    I have done some research and haven’t found any movie called ‘Powder’ starring John Travolta. ‘Powder’ is a 1995 film starring Sean Patrick Flanery.

    Was Travolta in a movie that he played the President of the US and seemed to portray the Clinton years or race to become president. Based on the South, etc.

  • 13. Welcome  |  January 17th, 2010 at 6:40 am

    Must Watch BROKEN ARROW …….. One an awesome movie having negative roll

  • 14. Want to know it  |  January 17th, 2010 at 7:28 am

    @Rob

    Yes, Travolta acted as a presidential candidate (taking off Bill Clinton) in Primary Colors (1998) also starring Emma Thompson, Billy Bob Thornton, Kathy Bates (who received an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress) and Adrian Lester.

    Was there ever a plan for a “Pulp Fiction” sequel???
    If not , think there is a chance of this ever happening?
    John was great on this film & all his others…

  • 16. Want to know it  |  January 26th, 2010 at 12:13 am

    The director (Quentin Tarantino) has discussed a potential sequel and there have been rumors that a sequel is going ahead. However, nothing has been confirmed and it’s been a long time since the original. I’d say it’s not likely now.

  • 17. Renee  |  January 27th, 2010 at 9:50 pm

    You missed the made for tv movie “The boy in the plastic bubble” (1976) The lack of biological immunities, forces him to live in a sterile plastic room (like an incubator).

  • 18. Want to know it  |  January 28th, 2010 at 12:02 am

    As I mentioned in a comment above, TV movies are not included on this list.
