Fast and the Furious Series
I just saw something about this movie on another site. The trailer looked pretty cool. Anyone else heard of it? Plan to see it when it comes out?

No plan at all. My interest evaporated when I heard Vin wasn't going to be in part 2. I ended up seeing most of two, but it never kept my attention. I saw the lineup for 3 and it should go straight to video.

ahhh the lineup :
Lucas Black, Bow Wow, Brian Tee, Sung Kang, Jason Tobin, Nathalie Kelly Just the words "Bow Wow" is enough to not make me go see it. The second movie was crap not only Vin Diesel is not in it but the story itself sucked....it has lost the whole racing culture theme that we had in the first movie. The drug dealer storyline was so low. Anyway....all this to say that I was really disappointed of the second that I'm tempted to check out the third movie. __________________

i think the first Fast and the Furious was the best, i didn't care much for the second one but, i'll probably go and see the third one anyway.

Without Paul or Vin - It's not The Fast & Furious
Part 2 was alright cause it had Paul, but I will not see a movie that dosen't have either one. |

This was scheduled to go directly to video/DVD... But the studio figured they could slide it in during the summer movie season where its target audience (teens) could lap it up. It will probably barely just break the top five when it opens, but then literally disappear after that... And be on video in less than three months (normal is six after theatrical run).
The whole street-racing scene is old news and this installment has absolutely NO star power in even the supporting roles, or one stand-out cameo like most real movies intended for the theater have, hence, why you can tell this was a last minute direct-to-video save. |

This movie will bomb so bad at the box office. The film has straight to DVD written all over it. The first Fast and the Furious was the best one. Vin Diesel and Paul Walker made a good duo in the original. 2 Fast 2 Furious wasn't great but at least it had Paul Walker in it. Vin Diesel should have gotten over his pride and ego issues and starred in the second one. The third one has Bow Wow and the boy from Sling Blade. Tokyo Drift looks bad and will probably have a short time at theaters.

The fact its even getting a theatrical release is because a little money is better than no money... Which actually is pretty stupid considering direct-to-DVD films actually make MORE than they ever would if they had been released in theaters in the first place. This is a pure case of greed on the part of the studio(s) and nothing more. |

I haven't even seen the second one, which I have on DVD for some reason. I think my bro bought it.
If there's no Vin, there's no me (going to see it). *** The cars looked great in the trailer, tho. I forgot to say that the theatrical trailer made the movie look like it was going to be better than the second one which I'm told is a piece of &#^#&(!. __________________

They were pretty awesome. I saw The Fast & the Furious in theaters a couple of times and even bought the DVD [though I have since lost it].
I didn't really plan on seeing or liking 2 Fast 2 Furious, especially since everyone except Paul Walker was gone [and I liked Dominic and Leon from the first two; Jesse also but he was shot so nevermind]. But then I watched it anyway, and it was quite enjoyable. I found Tyrese's character to be a bit annoying and obnoxious at the beginning. For some reason, I like movies involving drug lords. And rappers shouldn't act. Ja Rule was bad enough in the first one. Ludacris was an improvement in the second one. Jin as a mechanic amused me. And now Bow Wow's taking over for the third one; ew. __________________
