| Fast And Furious 4 Meh...... just came back from watching it. It's not as bad as 2 Fast 2 Furious, however it was rather weak. I found this one lacking. Plenty of product placement, but not much in the way of cars unlike the last 3 movies.
Apparently this movie is set before Toyko Drift. Hence the reason why Han made an appearance in this one.
Sort of glad I saw this one on a tight arse tuesday.

| Re: Fast And Furious 4 It was kind of "meh" for me too. Vin Diesel hasn't been in anything cool since Riddick. |

| Re: Fast And Furious 4 I didn't mind it, but I missed seeing a lot of hot cars in this one.
Also the fact that they did the same scene twice (tunnel) was pretty lame. |

I know that there is a new game. But I had no idea that they were doing another movie.
Cool.

| Re: Fast And Furious 4 Hasn't the new Riddick movie been "in the works" for 2 or 3 years now? I thought they couldn't find a studio or write a good enough script or something. If you have more substantial info please post a link! |

| Re: Fast And Furious 4 I can't find it right now, but I know I just read an interview with him (V. Diesel) where he said they were expanding the Riddick universe and expecting to release a new game and movie simultaneously (interview was about Dark Athena, so he means a new one). |

| Re: Fast And Furious 4 I am of the understanding that Dark Athena has all ready been released a few week back.
As for Riddick 3. Would be nice. However the second movie was a flop. Personally i really did like the 2nd film. Especially the uncut version where they did have more stuff about Riddicks Origins.

| Re: Fast And Furious 4 Pretty sure it's suppose to be a direct sequel to the first one. I really do want to see number four. I'm not a big fan of tuners or the scene, but I loved the first Fast and Furious when I was in middle school and have been wanting to see a true sequel since then. Number two was extremely underwhelming and number three...well... I don't even need to start on that. I'm a huge hot rod/american muscle fan, that makes me want to see it even more.

| Re: Fast And Furious 4 I was big in to the Fast and the Furious thing when it first came out back when I was in high school. Had my dakota looking sharp with a Cervini's Sniper Kit, blacked out euro tail lights and head lights, roll pan, tonneau cover, performance hops...the works.
But now, with this F&F, it has killed the vibe. There's not much in the performance and styling of the cars, it was just more or less a thriller soap-opera to me. It was nice and flashy enough for a Friday night after a round of beers, but nothing too exciting.
I think the F&F fad has died out, less cars on the road with any "upgrades" now days it seems, or maybe my eyesight is going bad. Who knows. I would rent the movie to see it once more when it releases, but by no means buy it I'm afraid. |
