What? You mean Fast and The Furious isn't a comedy?

Then the second one came out, and about 12 minutes in there's a scene where Ludacris(?!) decides to show everyone how hardcore his races are by raising a bridge. The hero then jumps his car from about 200 feet up and lands perfectly on all 4 wheels. That was the exact moment that the series died for me.
While the cast has gone back to the original, when I see the trailer I'm scared that it's going to go completely over the top with special effects again. The first movie mostly featured a lot of precision driving, there wasn't any "powerslide the car under a rolling, flaming tractor trailer" moments. We'll see though, but I'm pretty sure this one will be completely ridiculous, much like every one they made after the first.

Not that any of the 3 are good movies, but for watching people really driving cars on the big screen, it was the best one. Check it out if you're looking for 90 minutes to kill (or just FF through the dialogue and it'll go much quicker).

Ferrari Driver: More than you can afford pal.
Dom: [turning to Brian] Smoke him.

*No cars were harmed in the making of this film. Hell, half the time all we did was shoot scenery and add the cars digitally three weeks later.

I rolled my Apache out and let the side pipes cackle as loud as possible on one giant 5K rev.
Suddenly the ricers where all quite.

And that, sir, is the American way.
Still, I have a lot of respect for the import crowd. When it comes right down to it, it is really no different in concept or spirit than the age of T-bucket hot rods and so on. It's just a bunch of kids who can't afford much, certainly can't afford a Skyline, Corvette, etc. that are using their own ingenuity to do the best with what they have. You can't hate on them for that.
You can, however, hate at will on the assclowns who think that they are awesome with their their bright yellow 1980s Honda Accords (et. al.) equipped with fart can exhausts, GT wings, neon lights, bondo body kits, and ZERO performance mods. It is they that five the import scene a bad image that it really doesn't deserve.

Amen to that. I've built imports for racing. Honda's, all naturally aspired for Improved Touring Unlimited road racing. 232 horse at the front wheels from a B18 is impressive, especially when it holds together for a season. The import crowd as you mentioned is like the old guys. I've always compared them to the Muscle Car era. They are always tinkering and trying to gain something.
It is too bad they have a large portion of bad apples that give them the bad rap.

Candles in jam jars? Do you, per chance, drive an Integra?

It's not like we're all pretending it's a real movie, right?

Needs more booth professionals.

I will not see Transformers for any $ after how awful the first one was, though. Nothing could save that.

Megan Fox bending over the hood of a Camaro > all the girls in the FF series combined.
In my humble opinion.

Now, now, let's not knock Eva Mendes that much, because the truth is, she is knock-your-socks-off good looking, but yes, Megan Fox wins.

(subtitle: Torque - the other white meat)
It starts out with Vin telling a joke about two guys applying for unemployment. One's a women's shoemaker and the other is a diesel fitter. The shoemaker receives $200/week and the diesel fitter gets $300. When the women's shoemaker protests this, he points out to the clerk that he makes the shoes, the other guy just inspects them and say "Yep, diesel fitter"
And something about living one's live an eighth mile at a time.
