Vin Diesel only had two good films. Pitch Black and Saving Private Ryan.

Hey maybe they'll give me some good ideas for vinyl graphics for my phat ride.... 
Those movies are really starting to **** me off. The first one was ok, but the second one got way too unrealistic. Why can't they make a well done, accurate movie about cars/streetracing/drifting? Why does it have to be sensationalized with bridge jumps amd four foot flames out the exhaust...
to race, then breaking thier cars when they do, not much of a story there

You obvioulsy haven't seen Boiler Room and Knockaround Guys. He had a lot of good movies, and Riddick is gonna be a good movie it seems.
Fast and the Furious will end up like Police Academy series. First one was good and original, the later ones are just stupid and pointless.

I can appreciate the movies for what they are. Just turn your brain off when you walk in to see it and appreciate the pretty colors.
Now I do hate the fact that they are bringing un-needed attention on the import scene. Also, it's the wrong kind of attention! I wish that they would show how the import scene really is. But then again that wouldn't make the money that this fictitious BS does. Either way, just remember that it's Hollywood and nobody in Hollywood goes through the struggles that we do to build and tune our cars so that we are happy with them.
And about the 4 foot flame comment, that is completely possible. My TII and pretty much every other modded 7 in the SC club throws flames like that. It's just a side effect of owning a rotary. Even though our flames are caused by a backfire instead of coming out of the exhaust when we push the accelerator. But that's just me being **** retentive. Laterz.

I bought "Apotheosis" by Jesse James Allen...it's a tribute to the respect that's involved in modding a car in the un-Hollywood, normal-Joe type way, if that makes sense.
