    I haven't seen it yet. I've seen all the other ones. Multiple times. They are horrible. I'll probably see them a couple more times. They will still be bad. I'm sure this one is just as bad as its predecessors.

    FF4 took in something like $72 million opening weekend. You can bet that there will be at least one more. It'll suck too.

    Re: Fast & Furious

    freaking terrible, i put it at the bottom with the second one. it did break all sorts of records though. i especially love the "240sx with an illegal mod" i mean couldnt they just have got a real 240sx for it? if it had to be rhd then at least an s13 or 14?

    i also love how they couldnt out run all the shitty mexican cars out in the desert flats.

    I thought it was decent. It actually HAD a storyline and wasn't all about cars like the other three, still unrealistic though. Thought they did a good job overall.

    Did I actually see tow trucks pulling J turns on the dime, with NOS strapped to the flat bed?

    My eyes are in disbelief.

    I liked it! I'm a sucker for purdy cars and speed! But I think it was supposed to have taken place before Tokyo Drift. Hans was in this movie and he mentioned something about going to Tokyo...but in the Tokyo movie, he died...kinda weird how nobody has mentioned that throughout the course of the release.

    I thought they did a good job with this one from a production standpoint. It was more serious than the others and it lacked the flat out racing that motivates you to modify your car, but over all it was worth watching. I think this one ties with the first one, but I still think the 3rd one was the best (red Evo and the hottie). To me the 2nd one was the worst by far (minus Eva Mendez and the Skyline).

    Vin Diesel was on Jay Leno the other night talking about the movie a couple days before it was released. This movie takes place in between the first and second one according to Toretto.

    I thought it was pretty good. Yeah there were some unbelievable parts, but hey it's a movie, so get over it.

    We have not seen it YET, but we will. Dawn and I had just gotten back from the Dominion Republic when we saw the trailer for F&F.... ha ha ha WTF!!
    There are NO highways like the one in the trailer in the D.R.

    We were laughing our asses off.

    Still we will go see it.

    I was reluctant to go see it, but glad I did...it rivaled the first one, and blew away the 2nd and 3rd ones.

    Re: Fast & Furious

    As much as I hate to say it, I did see the original The Fast and The Furious.

    Truth be told, I liked it better when it was called Point Break, and done with surfer dudes, instead of gearheads.

    Either way though, I'm sure I'll catch Point Furious 4 at some point, but I don't ever see myself watching the middle two.

    Re: Fast & Furious

    I actually thought that as a movie, it was good. Strip away all the F&F hype and all the negative other movies and this in its own was a good movie. Some of the crap was far fetched but like it was said... its just... a... movie.

    Couldnt have been. Had to have been after #2 since the very end of 1 (extended scenes) and start of 2 has Paul Walker after he leaves Vin and his path to the second movie. It was definately before 3 though with Han being in it.

    Tried to see it with Sumo, JJ, and Wayne. I think JJ got the last ticket 'cause it was sold out when I asked. So went and saw it the next day.

    A work of art, it ain't. A fun distraction for almost two hours, it is.
