...and don’t have a subscription to any streaming services, and prefer to have physical copies instead of digital, then Walmart has a treat for you.

While doing some grocery shopping today, I came across a new section in the electronics department. The ‘Fast Cars’ section.

This section is comprised of various car films, from modern blockbusters like the Fast and Furious films and Cars, to rather small films like Che Sau (titled Motorway in the US release), to classics like the two I purchased today: the original Gone in 60 Seconds from 1974 (apparently a brand new 2017 Blu-Ray re-release) for $5.96, and the 1966 Frankenheimer classic starring James Garner, Grand Prix, in a 2-disc DVD release for $5.

Suddenly Walmart is less shitty in my opinion.

The original Gone in 60 Seconds is such a fun movie.

I’ve heard. I’ve never watched it before, so this will be an experience.

They also had the remake...but I didn’t want it, especially when they had the original.

The only thing I dislike is the cheesy soundtrack and sound effects of the remastered version. Why, oh why, did they axe the original music? It was so good!

It’s a terrible movie, but a fun chase.

Watched it last night. It wasn’t as good as I remembered-but still interesting. Considering the backstory ( only 1 car used in the chase-filmed on public roads without consent at times-actual accidents in filming) and a $27 dollar budget.
