    I'm not much of a Hollywood fan but I am a sucker for a good action flick.


    However let this be a warning to Vin and his co-horts, if I see another FATF flick with a 10 second 1/4 mile sequence that takes 3 minutes I will kill a puppy!

    If I'm in the mood for car action, I don't even consider one of the FnF flicks.


    I pop in The Gumball Rally, Gone in 60 Seconds (the 1974 one), The Cannonball Run or queue up one of the chase scenes from Ronin.

    @wimbles: Heart click for both of you. I have all flicks that wimbles mentions in my top 10 car flick list, but I'd also like to add Mad Max.


    Mad Max is not only my No 1 for car movies but my No 1 fav movie of all time. When I was a kid, my mother had a Falcon Hardtop like the black interceptor and my mates and I use to play in the car and pretend we were in the movie.

    I don't know why but this intrigues me. I guess I'm thinking about the Shell Ferrari F1 commercial that was partly shot in Rio. The cinematography *could* be gorgeous. They ought to borrow some of Top Gear's camera crews.

    I can say with full property that this would suck! As most of you know, we have no automakers, and for a long time there was an import embargo by the dictatorship. The only cars you can find here are VWs and crappy Chevys. Although an Opala SS would be pretty nice:

    @junkman: Oh yeah, Transporter is dirty pleasure of mine. What other movie had a special made manual-tranny 7-speed? Anyone? And the south of France. Transporter 1 was just great, 2 sucked, 3 was better but could have been a lot better.


    FnF, I've seen 1 and 4. If I had a dime for every time Vin shifted up to pass someone while street racing, I'd have a shitload of dimes.


    (While were on this, anyone who has not seen Ronin is kicked out of the circle until viewing this masterwork.

    Vin Diesel is kidnapped by a billionaire bent on deforestation to make room for his ethanol empire. Paul Walker wants desperately to rescue his friend, but struggles with his need for high-octane, clean-burning fuel. Also, some tits or something. Whatever we can do and still get a PG-13 rating.
