2 Fast 2 Furrious. 2 Far Fetched

Mass Stang · 06-16-2003, 08:56 AM

I broke down and saw the movie. That was way to far fetched for me. The idea that two mitsubishi's can be so far ahead of a Viper, Saleen, C5 Vette, Hemi cuda, and a Yenko Camaro in a race that they have time to screw around and race the other in reverse, while flipping eachother off was just too much for me. And passing cars (In thier mistu's) in reverse on the highway ? I don't know of any cars that can do 70 plus MPH in reverse. If anyone is on the fence of seeing this movie. I suggest to keep your money and spend your time seeing something else.

Fox Body · 06-16-2003, 10:01 AM

Yeah, that's what I thought. I already planne on not watching it. Thanks for the reminder as to why I won't.

Make some popcorn, rent "Bullit", and save your cash...

it's a movie.................the 67 Mustang jumping the pile up in "Gone in 60 Seconds" was real looking???

ac97gt · 06-16-2003, 12:46 PM

yeah... and almost everyone (at least around here) said they liked this one as opposed to the first one because it "actually had a plot" ... news flash... the plot was terrible. it wasn't nearly as believable as the first one, and just weak. oh yeah, i wish my car would spit flames out the back for an entire 1/2 mile+ race

No that jump was not realistic. I know movies (Especially action) are gonna be a little over done, and thats fine. But come on give me a break, the whole movie had unrealistic crap like that. How about the scene where the guy hits the nitrous, and passes over someone in midflight that hit the ramp well before he did ??? You did see this movie right ?????

Axman · 06-16-2003, 04:11 PM

Anyone remember "Cobra", Stallone running that leadsled Merc in reverse?

Simma down now. It's just a movie. Hell no it wasn't realistic, it wasn't made for car guys, it was made for morons who don't know where the battery. Suck it up, get over it, and move on. It's just a frickin movie.

I am not the one who is fired up there little buddy !

I get into the movies for free (cause I work there) and I still don't want to go see it. Bad enough I had to sit threw the preview of it. I was just swearing and cursing on how ricers were a bunch of dumbass's.

I think I have that somewhere on VHS. I recorded it off HBO while I was at work. I'll have to dig in my old VHS tapes and watch it again.

8T4SVOChick · 06-17-2003, 06:14 PM

I will probably see 2F2F, but will wait to rent it on DVD or watch it on PPV. I have the attitude that I know it is going to be very unrealistic, but hey, that's why I watch movies. I like unrealistic, as it helps me forget day to day things that drag me down. So, I can sit through an hour and a half of total B.S., laugh and feel better.

BTW~Cobra was an awesome movie. I, too, loved the scene where he parks the leadsled. And, gotta love that old Merc.

93blkGTfun · 06-17-2003, 08:33 PM

I went to go see it, because I thought it would be good for some laughs. It was hillarious!

The was so much shifting, I think those cars had huffy 15 speeds backin up the engine.

Also, I didn't know that when you hit nawzz that you broke warp speed, because all the lights go blurry out side the car.

Yeah, but what do you think about Stallone in "Cobra"?

We gotta change the name of the thread to Stallone, "Cobra" Dont you know those guys are still seeing the chiopractor after that chase through the dip street?? lol

Axman · 06-18-2003, 10:12 AM

Aw, c'mon! I'm sure we'd rather talk about something besides "2 Fat 2 Fluffy". If not Cobra then maybe the chase scene in Ronin??? Howabout the televised high speed OJ Simpson chase? lol

silver_pilate · 06-18-2003, 10:58 AM

I've got Ronin...love those chase scenes. Well done. Mmmmmm....Audi's. *drool*

I saw 2F2F. No, it's not realistic. It's somewhat entertaining. I shook my head alot. Probably should have waited to rent it. Oh well...it was only $4 on matenee.

I liked this one alot better than the first. I appreciated the fact that they pointed out that the american cars were faster than the mitsubishis.
