Are you wanna see the movie of part 2?

I'm going to see the movie on friday. But it's going to have a lot of ppl and ricer cars to see the movie since Fast 2 Furious in 2001 or Jackass.

94_AcCoRd_EX 06-02-2003 07:40 PM

Nah, I won't be going to the theater to see this one. :no:

Not a bit of that made any sense whatsoever. I'm assuming that you want to know who's going to see The Bi and the Curious sequel...2 Bi 2 Curious? That'll be a rental item for me. I may, however, go up to humiliate some 17 year old kid who just came out of the movie and thinks his mom's Altima is fast. But $7 is crap for that steaming pile.

ebpda9 06-02-2003 09:56 PM

heh, i was thinking about making a cardboard body kit for my accord: 2f2f edition :rolleyes:

CD5Passion 06-03-2003 02:49 AM

^lol
I'm in it for the skyline and lancer thats that, eff the plot who cares right?..oh yeah I forgot about the 13 year old girls..what was I thinking
and yes I saw the trailer and laughed when the mustang got raped..and it topped it off with the Corvette flipping over that..I about died laughing...domestics :pfft:
don't get me wrong...I love older muscle cars (just so I don't get bashed like hell)

Count me out as well....
Three movies that I am looking foward to this summer are: Bad Boyz II, 28 Days, and The Hulk.

WhiteSleeper 06-03-2003 11:36 AM

I love that video that you posted Ducky, it's great!

SolPol 06-03-2003 11:43 AM

What's 28 days? I'll see it for the Mustang as well.

PDog,

Make me one of those shirts, that's too damn funny.

prelude_2nr 06-03-2003 01:11 PM

yeah like some of you i just want to see the "stang" and corvette get totaled:banana: :banana: . yeah i think that is going to be the best part of the movie. as for the cars, im lookin forward to seeing the skyline and evo go at it against other "fast and furious"cars

nonovurbizniz 06-03-2003 01:15 PM

I don't get everyone's facination with wrecking a corvette or mustang... is it a joke or are you all seriously giddy to see a car get run over?

I wouldn't go to see this movie if it revealed the secret to life in the end.

It's a p.o.s. and the more support it gets the more crappy movies like it that will come out... or worse yet (ya I know It'll happen anyway.) F&F3...

I hate ALL movies... there have been fewer than 20 great movies made in so many years... hollywood can lick my nutz.

94_AcCoRd_EX 06-03-2003 01:23 PM

Honestly, if you claim to pay $10+ to see a mustang get run over, I think that there's something you won't admit. Maybe you just want to see the movie but don't want to admit it?

pbateson 06-03-2003 01:25 PM

mustang is in F&F2?

Shot 2 Hel 06-03-2003 02:17 PM

ill admit ill go see it. Hell it will get me out of the house for a few hours. And im gonna go with the Stefan idea with the body kit

Yeah, I believe it is a Saleen and it gets seriously messed up by a huge truck. I don't know why everyone wants to see it get crushed though. Because it's a domestic? I don't understand why us import fans get all pissy when the domestic fans talk shit to us but then we sit here and talk about how psyched we are to see a badass Saleen get crushed. I have respect for badass rides regardless of whether they are an import or a domestic. I share a driveway with an 86 Buick Grand National that would blow the doors right off of my Accord pretty much regardless of what I did to it.

My sentiments exactly. I didn't laugh my ass off when that Eclipse bought it in the first one (although that car was kind of a joke in the looks dept.). I'm with 94_Accord_Ex...I think you all wanna go see it but just won't admit it because you know how mind numbingly retarded people think it is. But hey...at least they keep with the theme of destroying anything that can ACTUALLY GO FAST.

BTW msvtec...I kinda doubt it's a real Saleen. I don't see them paying all kindsa money for a real one when they can just slap a Saleen body kit and wheels onto a V6 and make it look all purdy for 16 year olds who won't know the difference. In the Mustang world that's known as a Faleen. ;)

pbateson 06-03-2003 04:52 PM

Same as Jackass. It say "Don't try at home" Some ppl trying to stunts like jackass.

This movie had admit to see it?

nonovurbizniz 06-03-2003 05:03 PM

I (shamefully) must admit I saw something on it... they had like 6 of each car... none of which were anywhere near what they were portrayed to be on film...

I think there was a real saleen but it was not used as the crash vehicle...

if you look at ducky's sig... it's pretty much falling apart before it hits anything.

GT40FIED 06-03-2003 06:53 PM

Yeah...that's what I meant about the Saleen. It's all fun and good until a perfectly good car gets crushed. Why spend $30K for a genuine one when you can just buy a used V6 for around half that and slap a grand or two worth of add-ons to it for the look. Here's my question...since they will eventually destroy anything that can run a decent quarter mile, will they trash the Skyline? I doubt it due to cost and availability of those damn sweet cars...but I don't put anything past those butt pirates. Hell...they made a sequel, didn't they?

Kyle 06-03-2003 08:15 PM

lol...i'm probably gonna go see it...or i'll just get a bootlegged copy...

JamieS697 06-03-2003 10:13 PM

^ bootleg copy man thats the ticket!! no fees and no regrets except that you wasted time watching it

jjcivic92 06-04-2003 12:19 AM

hell i'm going to go see it for the cars, I'll admit it. I pretty much know there isn't going to be a story line as well as it being full of mess-ups like the first one. Example: in the first one they 4 cars line up and there 2 white guys, asian, and black guy, but when they shift into first they all have white hands. Then when the eclipse spins out at the end of the race, it shows a clip of the honda civic being right behind it, then when the 'clipse finishes spinning around the civic never comes around. I mean do they even revise a scene after shooting it? Or when brian wipes the top of the beer bottle then the camera goes to that other guy, when it comes back it plays the same scence of him wiping off the bottle once more.

LOL, Faleen. Yeah, I hear you about them making the Faleen though. Regardless, that car gets MESSED up. I wonder if the person in the movie died. Ok, I'll admit it...yes, I am going to watch this movie. It's because I have a crush on Paul Walker aka Brian Earl Spilner. Ok, that was just a joke. But, I do plan on going to see this. I do have my serious doubts about the quality of the actual movie but I am really interested in seeing the cars. I heard somewhere that there's somehow a lot of APC in this movie. Anyone see that Autozone commercial? With the hooked up cars? I don't think that they mentioned APC but I know that's pretty much all they sell in there.

I saw that magazine at Quick Chek the other night man. Crazy.

nonovurbizniz 06-04-2003 12:06 PM

Ya that's right is was some magazine... however I did NOT read that... I don't buy those mags anymore....

It was on one of the car shows a week or 2 ago... they test drove some of the cars... did skid pad and 1/4 mile runs...

It was alright... I wouldn't go to see the movie for the cars becasue.
A. most are WAY lame looking
B. NON are actually fast or furious
C. I ain't paying 8bucks to see cars I can see online doing what they can actually do.

I hate this whole thing it really pisses me off that someone finally made movies about this subject and the suck a$$ sooooo hard...

I just won't support it... I dl'd the first one and I couldn't even sit through it all... it's just awful. I could write a better movie than that in a good day or two.

I won't even dl the second one... maybe MAYBE I might rent it on dvd... but probobly not... it literally sickened me how bad that movie was... It wasn't even so much all the bs about cars... the plot really just ate a$$... and the writing was pitiful.

SolPol 06-04-2003 12:11 PM

The plot: Point Break with cars, I identified that in all of about five minutes when I saw it.

I saw it in the theaters twice. :paranoid: I didn't pay for either though, that's why.

And about that Mustang, I don't care what kind of car it is, import domestic, whatever, I just think it would be cool to see an 18 wheeler run over a car on a theater screen.

pbateson 06-04-2003 02:41 PM

We have to pay extra after the movie? :confused:

nonovurbizniz 06-04-2003 03:04 PM

^what?

GT40FIED 06-04-2003 04:56 PM

I think instead of actually paying to see this one they should let everyone who saw the first one in for free as a way of saying they're sorry.

pbateson 06-04-2003 05:18 PM

We need to pay extra when after the movie?

It make sense?

No...it makes absolutely no sense. No offense man, but are you sending your posts from a 2 way pager or something? The spelling and grammar don't make any sense.

pauls-si 06-04-2003 08:57 PM

I don't see the point to all the hate to the movie. It's just a movie, a "hollywoodized" view of the import scene. The movie industry always twists everything around no matter what the subject. They are here to make money. And yes they are going to get a portion of my money.......DAMN THE MAN.

you've got a good point...but you've got to realize that with the income they take in they have an obligation to produce a quality product. Sure, that's subjective, but when dealing with a movie like that you also have an obligation to attempt to at least slightly portray the reality of a scene. If anything I think the movies mock the import scene with so many glaring technical inaccuracies and improper recreations of the reality of street racing and the cars involved. When was the last time you saw a 10 second RX7 with insane graphics and a body kit or a 160mph capable Eclipse at a local street race? Or a pink S2000 for that matter? I think everybody hates it because it's insulting...not only to import/sport compact racers, but to automotive enthusiasts everywhere.

GetTheImage 06-05-2003 04:40 AM

I dunno if I'll see it or not... when the first Fast and the Furious came out it was kinda nifty because our club got invited out for the opening to park on the sidewalk in front of the theater..thought about it afterwards and realized I didn't really want so many people attracted to my car.

Ummm..I'd have to say I'm undecided. I won't decide against it because of its inaccuracies. If I did that, I'd never go see movies. But I dunno yet.

Hollywood is not obligated to make a "quality" movie. I've seen many movies that weren't well made, but they were still entertaining. They make movies that they want to sell. And it seems like F&F is selling well.

93Honda 06-05-2003 07:31 AM

i'm in for it to see the mustang get run over lol. I'm sorry but i've seen enough jack@$$es on the roads where i live with mustangs that i will get a perverse pleasure out of watching one get totaled.

ChrisCantSkate 06-05-2003 10:19 AM

im not going to see it, the first movie wrecked the import scene once... im sure the second one will do it again.... the creators of the movie would have dont so much better to make a realiztic movie with a story and some good possible car chases. i would pay to see that. but if the only crazy stunts are the ones in the previews... thats too much for me already.

gone in 60 seconds > f&f and the new 2f2f

failcaleb 06-05-2003 11:06 AM

My 2 cents...
 
I saw the first movie (not when it was in the theatre) and I actually liked the storyline. I think that going hollywood on the lame ricer scene is pretty pathetic. I remember going to the theatre to see a movie when "The fast and the blatantly stupid" was playing and a full 50% of the cars there were stupid looking rice-mobiles including a silver celica with a spoiler on the HOOD of the car. in my opinion, making a second movie will only give the ricers another reason to go out and make cars look bad all over again...that being said, I'm sure I'll probably catch the movie on cable sometime if nothing else is on..if only for a good laugh

Oh, and one more thing. Hollywood is not the only one cashing in on the rice phenomenon. At AutoZone and probably every other auto store, there is an entire section dedicated to doing your worst to your car. Lighted shift knobs, lighted windshield sprayers, A bolt on coffe can with, you guessed it, lights in it, and just about every other thing that most of us would not do to our cars for fear of retribution from the gods of good taste. I just don't understand what these people are thinking when they put this shit on their car and then actually drive it on the street with the windows down and the stereo blaring, apparently thinking that their pimpmobile is da shit. I mean, come on people, this shit isn't even original anymore...passe, doesn't even begin to describe how old this kind of thing is...oh, and one more "upgrade" that I just saw at autozone this week...A "performance" carbon fiber battery cover. No shit...the package actually said "Performance battery cover" Anyone know how much horsepower you can get out of that kind of upgrade? I'm thinking that you should be able to get a solid 10 hp out of that baby.

I agree with that completely. I hate any car that is done with absolutely no taste, and there are quite a few domestics that I see that are "riced out" I think that people getting all excited about a mustang getting run over by a truck is a really cheap shot. I'm sure in the movie, it's the "villian" that drives the mustang that gets run over...and I'm sure after you go see the mustang get run over, you'll go home and have good dreams of running that 10 in the quarter mile or winning the indianapolis 500 because of your above-average-super-duper-double-decker wing and all the added hp from all the little lights and shiny objects that odorn your pimpmobile..but, alas, reality is a little different, isn't it?

LOL, that was funny. I know that was not directed to me but in all honesty, I don't even care about my car running 10 seconds anymore. I'm not putting thousands and thousands more into it on top of what I've put into it already. I barely drive the thing anywhere because it's such a pain in the ass to drive. But still, it's my baby. I'll be driving on the highway and some guy/girl will roll up to me and try really hard to get me to race. They'll have the big wing and all the cool little light up things. This happens quite often and I can't even begin to tell you

93Honda 06-05-2003 01:05 PM

whoa buddy chill down, i like honda's a lot, but that doesn't mean i like to shove stupid stuff on it. Most if anything i will do to my car will involve the engine, suspension, and wheels/tires. Although ya i have seen some pretty dog ugly kits on honda's. Makes me cringe. Oh, there's nothing wrong with watching a mustang get totalled and enjoying it. Frankly, not to insult anyone, i depsise domestic cars, don't know why i just do.

msvtec14 06-05-2003 01:05 PM

shit, I sent that by mistake. Anyway, I can't begin to tell you how much that pisses me off. Just get the hell away from me. I'm trying to just drive and go get my hair done or whatever. Get away.

uhhhh..ok. not sure I understand what you're saying there. I meant those last couple posts for the "ricers"...i.e. any car, import or domestic that has been whipped by the owner with a big ass glowing ugly stick. sounds like you're not one of those. As a matter of fact, it looks like most of the people on this forum don't subscribe to the "rice" theory. If it makes any offended individuals feel any better, I am also a member of a mustang forum, and I don't hold back on letting anyone on that message board know about my opinion of riced out domestic cars. I am strictly against RICE (see my definition above), not domestic or import cars. I drive a 98 civic, and I know my next car will be a mustang. I don't care if you have a pinto or a Cobra..it's possible to rice out either one and it's also possible to do something with a little taste to either.

93Honda, I didn't mean any offense..like I already said, it doesn't sound like you've been afflicted with rice disease (I've heard it's very contageous). Sounds like you've got some pretty good plans for your car. I don't think there's anything wrong with enjoying seeing a mustang get totaled..it's just what the motivation is for seeing that happen. Your classic ricer would like that because he hates mustangs, whereas I would like to see that just because it's good old fashioned carnage...like in the original Gone in 60 seconds...destruction and carnage is gooooood

I sent a post before I was through with it and I had to finish with another post. Basically, I was just stating that I hate when people that are in fact ricers pull up to me and try to race. You know what? Now that I think of it, I pretty much get annoyed when anyone is an @sshole about trying to race. If you pull up to me once or twice and I'm not going to race you. Don't keep f*cking with me. Don't pull behind me, ride my ass and then pull up next to me. That happened not too long ago and this guy got off the same exit and I actually got out of my car and went off. I think street racing just makes all of us look bad to the cops...us as in the people that like to mod their cars.
