Mangled - just admit it, you like it, LOL


You don't have a wife and kid's (2 daughters at that) to my knowledge. Simply getting to watch something with a little blood, guts, glory and chicks is nice. That's the only reason I went to see it, the wife has been wanting to go see a movie. It's the first movie we have seen in awhile. Last movie before this cost us $100, decided we weren't going to do that anymore.


I think probably the last good car movie was "gone in 60 seconds" or maybe "the driver". "Faster" wasn't bad, but most movies just suck these days.

I thought Faster was good. Less of a car movie, but it had a good story.

I'm going to watch it and have enjoyed all the series. Just a movie, doesn't have to be real.

Because of this movie, and our area, I will have to avoid the areas with theaters on weekend nights. Not only will the cops be crawling for the first few weeks the movie is out, the ricer's will be acting stupid causing all sorts of problems after watching it.
Guess I need to see to get that one to get the 3451 speed tranny thing.

Seriously? This movie will cause ricers to act like fools? Hmm, guess media does affect some. To me, it's just a movie.

Spoolin, so what about plot? Go watch it for cars. And hotties, just like Vince B said.

I agree w/. zeake, it got all those idiot ricers started. I mean they were there before I'd think, but this just made it worse.

$100 for 4 @ the movies?!? How? Unless tickets were $15 ea.(x4) + $10(x4) in concessions. I try not to go to movies hungry cause concessions are way overpriced. Ya, I wanted to see Faster, but never did cause I was too busy at the time. Last movie I saw was Jolie in "Tourist".
I'll probably see this one, but I hate to see old Chargers or musclecars destroyed.

Ya, it's so different than other movies.
