Default F-Type S in Fate Of The Furious

I just saw the movie trailer for the latest Fast & The Furious movie. The title is Fate of the Furious. The black F-Type S appears around the 1:25 mark. Watch closely or you will miss it. It seems like they would have used an R because a high HP car is needed for what they are trying to do in the scene.

I love actions movies but those have gotten so stupid and cartoonish.

A friend in CA took me too the last one where they were parachuting cars into a deep forest and somehow driving away, car falls off cliff - drives away. You really have to leave your brain in the lobby of the theater before entry.

I liked the Tokyo Drift one and the last one, but the spoof "Superfast" is worth watching too

I like it stupid and cartoonish. Can't wait to watch it, but I'll remember to take a taxi to the theatre, after seeing movies like this I start getting crazy ideas of the things i can do in my car.

https://www.netflix.com/watch/70295185 thanks that will get a good laugh on the treadmill I am sure. Rated very low, but so was Revenge of the Nerds II Nerds in Paradise and that is pretty much Gone With The Wind compared to the Fast series.

Cheers, post what you think of it. Actually I reckon it was the funniest movie I saw this year aside from the Point Break remake which was awesomely funny - but only for the terrible script.

It seems my MST3K fans are in the house. =)

There's many types of movies:

GREAT
Fine
Bad but hilarious because it is bad
unwatchable but still hilarious to watch
"Here be Dragons" type of bad. LOL


But I will watch most films, especially big hype films, as a film lover who loves to watch how films are made. This summer was divine. BMvsSM was just soooooooooooo bad....


But if I could watch every bad film with Mystery Science Theatre.... oh my. In fact, Rifftrax and Cinematic Titanic are offshoots of MST3K, and they do all modern films like Avatar, etc.

Also, MST3K got picked up by Netflix and they're making new eps.

Superfast is awful, but since it is actually only supposed to be a goofy parody I'd take it over the ridiculous F/F movies anyday.

I cant believe that you didnt appreciate Superfast for the art that it is...but maybe that explains why "***** to the Wall" wasnt nominated for the Oscar I thought it deserved

I haven't seen the live action film "Redline", based off a popular Japanese Anime. It's supposed to make F&F look like Shakespeare.


Redline (2007) - IMDb

But this list is fun:
25 best racing movies ever | Stuff

If we started talking car movies....... which we are.... whooooo boy.

That list is okay, but missed some of my faves (not necessarily "racing")...

Gumball Rally / Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry / Vanishing Point / Gone in 60 seconds / Bullitt / Drive / Duel.... Speedracer was a psychadelic experience. What a bizarre and fun film, check your brain at the door.

I won't even get into the all the exploitation and 70's knock offs... lol

An f type R showed up in a movie I watched last night 'the Thinning'.

In a movie about a future Texas where (due to world overpopulation) the bottom 5% of all high school kids are exterminated, the scene of some horny teenagers getting it on in the passenger side of an F Type was the least believable.
