Fast and the Furious

I feel pitty for the GE shareholders whose Universal division is craking out Revenge of the Rice III (a.k.a. "Fast and the Furious III"). I see more ricers coupled with the degrading acting quality that accompanies most sequels.

Anyone going to submit their GP's? I doubt they will be considered but it would be funny.

the only appeal of the ricer movies is hot women and fast cars. Bad acting could be forgiven, but the Fast and the Furious doesn't deliver on the afformentioned criteria. I think I counted once and in the opening drag race scene, the idiot in the green car shifts like 80 times. Now THAT'S a serious close ratio transmission!!!!!

Got to love those 7 gear Supras...

its beefed up haha stuiid azz movie

They make ricer kids who sit in parking lots all night feel like they have a purpose.

Hey watch it, I still sit in the parking lots :mad:

Though most of my street racing friends have Trans Ams, Camaros, and Mustangs and can turn a 1/4 mile, uhh, well, a lot faster than me :(


But every time Johnny Ricer is his fart cannon Civic(or RSX which supposedly "can beat srt-4 neons", heh) comes by, well at least I can put him in his place ;) and my friends don't have to hear his "Well you got 8 cylinders" crap...

Its also funny to use the "You just lost to a freakin' family car(though i dont consider it a family car), now go home" line...

You might be a ricer if...

OMG that was the funniest thing I've read in a long time. Thanks for the laugh..it's all so true!

When going to the main splash page (automotiveforums.com) they have the letter with what type of cars they want. Here is the excerpt with a point of interest:

There is special demand for VIP type cars (dropped and modified Infiniti Q45, Toyota Chaser, etc.) and super-modified mini-vans. But again, we want to emphasize that you should absolutely contact us if you have a RHD vehicle of any type.

That disturbs me. I feel we another doozy lined up.

Apparently, this one is going to be set in Tokyo (why they need the left hand drive vehicles).

They are going to run from the one dubbed "The Drift King"

[press release]

"The Fast and the Furious 3" follows the story of Shaun Boswell, who has always been an outsider. A loner at school, his only connection to the indifferent world around him is through illegal street racing -- which has made him particularly unpopular with the local authorities. To avoid jail time, Shaun is sent out of the country to live with his uncle in the military, in a cramped apartment in a low-rent section of Tokyo. In the land that gave birth to the majority of modified racers on the road, the simple street race has been replaced by the ultimate pedal-to-the-metal, gravity-defying automotive challenge ... drift racing, a deadly combination of brutal speed on heart stopping courses of hairpin turns and switchbacks. For his first unsuccessful foray in drift racing, Shaun unknowingly takes on D.K., the "Drift King," with ties to the Yakuza, the Japanese crime machine. The only way he can pay off the debt of his loss is to venture into the deadly realm of the Tokyo underworld, where the stakes are life and death.

Summary written by Press Release

To avoid jail time, street racer Shaun Boswell is sent to live with his uncle in Tokyo. There he discovers drift racing. After losing a race to Yakuza-connected D.K., the Drift King, Shaun has to enter the Tokyo underworld to find a way to pay his debt.

I'm sure the debt this kid has is from modifying his ricer.

Not to mention (and keep carrying on this worthless topic :) ) rapper Bow Wow will be making an appearence.

Yeah that "You might be a ricer if" is so damn true, its not even funny(especially the "anything American is considered REDNECK" line)...

When we meet up its not a "Hey, check out my neons" meet, usually some "action" is going to be taking place somewhere, in fact about 4 weeks ago we had over 75 cars show up in our "location"(hint: no where near a parking lot or town ;))

I normally wouldn't condone racing on the street, but they have really given us no choice, they moved our track night to Thursday(who wants to race on thursday? Especially when you go to school and what not)...

But 2 weeks ago they held a "street wars" night at the track(I guess because of the sudden incline in racing, pursuits/crashes) and around 100 cars showed up for that(it was pretty cool because in order to attend you had to pay your track fee at the meeting place, which was a burger place, and then drive your car to the track, if it wasn't a daily driver and couldn't be driven, you didn't attend) and we even had a police escort to the track...

So you would think they would start having it every week to keep us off the street. Right? Wrong, I talked to the track owner and he said that it was more than likely a one time(maybe once every blue moon) thing, his exact words "too much of a hassle having racing on Thursday night and then you guys(us "street racers") tear up the track again on Thursay"...

So now STREET CARS are worse than 700-1000hp drag cars on a track?

That was great Bnaylor, reminded me of my own "Rich and the parts Monkey". My favorite is the wing height/IQ comparo. :lol:

I was under the impression that vin diesel was coming back for the third one, that will make it an even worse film

Bow Wow is taking his place...

Paul Walker, who played the main character in the first two skipped out. Vin Diesel is a decent supporing actor if they kill him off in the first 30 minutes like in Saving Private Ryan.

Vin Diesel is a corny actor but he's not that bad. I liked him in Triple X. Any actor that rides a MX dirt bike is OK in my book. :bigthumb:

Sounds like the new movie is going to be a flop anyways. If the producers had any sense they should kill it.

jIF Vin Diesels acting talent were gasoline, he wouldn't have enough for an ant's motorcycle to do a lap around the inside edge of a Cheerio.
