The Fast and the Furious (1) thread:

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Our first short film! Turbo-Charged Prelude! Disappointingly, it did not feature a turbocharged Honda Prelude. Also, it sucked dong.

Oh dat Luda hair. And dat pink S2000

TRIVIA FACT: The R34 GT-R that Paul Walker drives in this race is his actual car...
I think.

Ludacris: killing his friends with a bridge for the entertainment of the public.

Loving these classic Caprice cop cars

UGH. This movie is so much worse than the first one. When he fools the guy with the "what engine is better, a Gallo 12 or a Gallo 24" the dude says 24, because I mean if you didn't know and had to guess, it sounds like one's a 12 valve and one's a 24 valve. IDK it's a decent guess. And all Pauly can say is "I didn't know pizza places made motors." ugh.

Awwwwwww Tyrese and Paul are gay together and they're sex wrestling! So cute!

Oh right, Eva Mendes is in this movie.

Kinja'd!!!

"My Red Ferrari was impounded..." Uh...buddy you're going to have to be more specific, like 90% of all Ferraris are red

This guy wins the award for "deadest guy" !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Ah, the reverse at 80 MPH move, classic F&F

The tea set in this scene is simply exquisite

Kinja'd!!!

Is there any character in this franchise who hasn't been to jail?

!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! Best car wash in film?

I should have counted the number of times somebody says "shit", complete stop, in this tag team race. It's....a lot of times.

Kinja'd!!!

This rat torture scene. What the actual fuck.

.

.

.

I nominate this asian rapper for worst single rap ever.

Aaaaand the horribleness of 2 Fast 2 Furious has driven me to drink. At 11:43AM.

Is Tyrese in this movie solely responsible for the mid-00s spread of the term "bruh"?

Aaand this video is perfect: !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

"They're closing in, man!" "SHUT UP, MAN" I hope the writers of this movie were paid handsomely

Look closely: when the guy crosses himself after the EMP gets pulled out, he totally forgets the 4th point of the cross

Ah, the ol' nitrous exploding under the seat - oldest trick in the book

"You know, I like you. But I still gotta kill you." Ugh, so relatable. We've all been there.

This guy straight up does a perfect replica of the Suarez bite on Paul Walker. Must be a Latino thing #JUSTKIDDING #NOTRACIST

Ahhh, the piecé de resistance - !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

And at the end of this movie, Tyrese devolves from "bruh" to "breh". I don't want to live on this planet anymore. BUT AT LEAST I SURVIVED. What cha gon do? Act a fool.

Next movie: "Los Bandoleros" -

Was his actual car, I believe the feds took it a few years later and crushed it.

Additional trivia: They did the first race jump for real (minus the insane one car flying over another) and the cars basically survived. Mostly only needing replacements for bent rims and oil pan repairs.

As part of that whole GT-R roundup thing? Because of the importers who were also into cocaine?


Kinja'd!!! daender > RayRay

Mostly because it wasn't meeting US safetly standards and was illegally imported.

yeah that car is totaled period.

Kinja'd!!!

I do kinda love the side graphics for a girls car. I think If the car was purple, or blue, you had a better body kit(maybe wide body kit) and wheels that aren't gaudy they could look awesome.

Can't decide if this one or Tokyo Drift is the worst

I legitimately like Tokyo Drift. Sure, the dumb Texan can't act his way out of a barn, but Han steals the whole movie. Han is awesome. I want to be Han when I grow up....

sniff...I miss Han

Tokyo drift was worse, and better at the same time.

I was going to say TD was better but as I started typing I realized I couldn't decide either.

Yeah it's that short and horrible. Just finished Los Bandoleros, it's 20 mins and definitely worth it

If by "for real" you mean that they wired up the S2000 to be driven by remote and it was horribly ruined because it has so little in the way of suspension travel. Sport Compact Car had a write-up about most of the cars (and the stunts) in their May 2003 issue. I'm thankful for this, because it contained a ton of tech and other cool articles that led me away (mostly ;P) from my brief ricer-phase.

Wonder if there's a copy of that article online would like to read that. To the googles!

Modified.com has all the write-ups on the individual cars, but I'm not seeing the stunts article. http://www.modified.com/sch/02/2fast2f…

The riced-out NSX hurts me. Also, I credit the Eclipse that Tyrese drives as my first encounter with anything close to a "donk." =) The other thing that I dislike is how "Fast & Furious" is essentially a retread of 2Fast's plotline with more of the original cast.

I wrote something a while back which presents a dissenting opinion—shameless self-plug!

I appreciate this. I'll know for sure when I get to it, but I'm starting to remember why it's head and shoulders above 2Fast! 2Furious!
