Come on, let's be honest here... Bo and Luke WERE idiots.

And any show that regularly destroyed such beautiful and irreplaceable Dodge Chargers ought to have had its creators, producers, and directors bodily strapped, in turn, to the front ends of those classic Mopars prior to their being launched skyward.


Only good thing I have to say 'bout the movie is... Jessica. Nummy!

I third the motion.


Bo and Luke weren't idoits they were crazy in the orginal show. But from what I can tell by the previews they and made them just flat out dumbasses. Which is expected considering whom they cast to play the parts.

Re: Fast and the furious 3??? God help us!!!!

^^^^You talking about me??? Oh well, i was wrong, I made a mistake. I admit it. And F&F is all about the cars.. its all about looks. Its not about the acting.. or the script.

Re: Fast and the furious 3??? God help us!!!!

finally!!! good to see you back. any movie that is going to be under the F&F name is going to be all about exterior. the directors/creators have no reason to drop 20k into a car's engine just for a movie. not when they can do all of the sounds on a soundstage for almost nothing.

Re: Fast and the furious 3??? God help us!!!!

Well my cousin worked in the film industry as a purchase consultant for movies. Often they will spend a lot of money for specific aspects, if they feel it will add value to a movie. But fandf probably won't personally spend 20K on a car but may actually do it, but wont race it. They will probably "hire" the car for a few days of shooting from someone who has already modded the shit out of their car. They will shoot a few sceens with the hood up to show all the mods, then they will actually pretty much stock except for exterior for the race scenes so if the stunt driver screws up they are not out mucho money. I'll admit I won't pay money to see the movie, but I'll see it cause I like to watch cars go fast, the acting will be horrable of course, adn plot non existant, but should have some cool cars.

And it was that movie that got me kind of into the whole street racing scene.

actually, in F&F and 2F2F, the race scenes where you are looking into the car(like at the driver), some of those are done on flatbeds.

Not too mention the fact that in 2F2F they had 4 of each of the main cars. I doubt that they would put 20 into each one of those cars
