Default Fast & Furios 5 aka fast five

Ok so just saw a preview of Fast Five and it has Dwaine the Rock Johnson lmao. Although I will say it has some cool scenes in the previews I think the best scenes where probably in the previews . I thought the first one was kind of fun and well it led to a huge surge in custom and tuning cars so I am glad for the additional aftermarket support that it brought with its success. The ones after that where not as good and I see this being a possible major flop.

I still remember the original Fast And Furios after the movie I was in a grand am and a guy was in a suby wrx edition and wanted to race reving his engine and pointing at me and the road ahead. I looked back with a serious look pointed at him made the sign for small *you now how you measure with your fingers* and then pointed down he was so mad that he redlined until the light turned green. the funny part was I slammed the gas to make it look like I was racing and turned right to go onto the freeway on ramp. I got mad props from both girls in the car for that move. I mean come on my grand am verse a WRX...like my car stood a chance. Still hilarous to this day and learned that making a girl laugh can be more powerful then buying her a drink

I see this being a possible major flop.
I do too. Whatever happened to F&F Europe? Or bringing something completely NEW and COOL to the table?



It looks silly, but you know the Honda riceboys will be there having F&F meets in parking garages to see this movie.

We can all talk as much smack as we want about it, but 9 out of 10 of us are still going to see it, lol. I'll wait until it's at the Redbox across the street for $1, but I will see this one as well.......

Actually, I think it looks really good! Gets a little further from the original and further from cars, but closer to an Oceans 11 type theme? I think this could be good.
