Could it be the Hollygrail

We were watching the news the other day , and a comercial just made me jump

They were running an add for the upcoming movie MAD MAX , the Road Worrior
coming up on 05/15/15

Should we assume ( or HOPE) that will coincide with wat GM has been saying that the. Camaro G6 will be unveiled on the same date as the movie above , and it will happen that the unvailing will happen in the movie , and the G6 will be on it ?

The Road Worrior? Is that like when you go on a road trip and you think to yourself " did I turn off the stove?"

People are actually looking forward to seeing that movie? But no, the release location has already been announced and it has nothing to do with that movie.

"holy grail" is simple to explain.

Two words: holy grail, not "hollygrail".

The Holy Grail was the 'Cup of Christ', allegedly used by Christ at the Last Supper. Part of Arthurian (King Arthur's) legend. It was used by Joseph of Arimathea, according to the legend, to catch the blood of Christ after His crucifixion. Typically depicted as a Chalice. Arthurian legend is convoluted. King Arthur's Knights supposedly went on a Quest to recover this holy relic.

Expressed as "holy grail", it is used to mean an object much sought after or difficult to obtain.

If you collect cars, for example, there's a 1970 Hemi 'Cuda making the news recently, with less than 100 original miles and in prisitne condition that is projected to fetch over 600K dollars at auction. That car is a "holy grail" car: an "impossible to find" example.

If you collect firearms, the Batte M1A1 is another "holy grail".

To a baseball pitcher, a 'perfect game' is a holy grail.

Used in the OP's context, 'holy grail' is, sorry to say, used out of it's expected meaning.

Have you seen the vehicles in Mad Max? I doubt that a shiny camaro will be pulling along beside them.

I saw the trailer. Looks like the 'last of the V8s' Interceptor is (sigh) wrecked again. Coolest car ever put on the screen.

But no worries re: shiny. Our paint is so bad who could tell the difference?
