Answers.Body: <p>Most Hollywood blockbusters are well paired with beer. For example boxing scenes from <strong>Rocky</strong> fit <em>Budweiser</em>.<br>
  Hollywood classic may differ. In my opinion, <strong>Gone With The Wind</strong> requires <em>Bourbon</em>, and <strong>My Fair Lady</strong> is all about <em>Campaign</em>. <strong>Forrest Gump</strong> should fit <em>Dr. Pepper</em> but you can improve the drink with <em>Bourbon</em> or <em>Whiskey</em>. And of course <strong>Zorro</strong> must go with <em>Tequila</em>. <strong>Jesus Christ Superstar</strong> best fit to <em>red wine</em> and <em>dry bread</em> as a snack ("<em>This is my blood and this is my body. Remember this every time you eat and drink.</em>")<br>
  Some movies do not match a single drink. For example, <strong>National Lampoon European Vacation</strong> require <em>Scotch</em> for British episode, <em>cheap red wine</em> for French, <em>Bavarian beer</em> for German, and <em>Cinzano</em> for Italian.<br>
  And never forget <strong>pickle juice</strong> for the next morning. ;) </p>

  Most Hollywood blockbusters are well paired with beer. For example boxing scenes from **Rocky** fit *Budweiser*.  
  Hollywood classic may differ. In my opinion, **Gone With The Wind** requires *Bourbon*, and **My Fair Lady** is all about *Campaign*. **Forrest Gump** should fit *Dr. Pepper* but you can improve the drink with *Bourbon* or *Whiskey*. And of course **Zorro** must go with *Tequila*. **Jesus Christ Superstar** best fit to *red wine* and *dry bread* as a snack ("*This is my blood and this is my body. Remember this every time you eat and drink.*")  
  Some movies do not match a single drink. For example, **National Lampoon European Vacation** require *Scotch* for British episode, *cheap red wine* for French, *Bavarian beer* for German, and *Cinzano* for Italian.  
  And never forget **pickle juice** for the next morning. ;)
