Saw a few copies left last night but I didn't pick it up. I had a $50 GC and picked up these instead:

Almost Famous: Bootleg (directors) cut. I love this film and already own it but this one has 35mins extra footage and more extras
Tolkien: Master of the Rings

Every friend I talked to said Fast and the Furious sucked...at the very least I'll download a dvd rip and see what the fuss is about

I am going to buy The Fast and Furious on DVD tonight for $16.99 from Best Buy which sells it for $17.99, I'll simply price match it against Circuit City's lower price.

and since I bought Evolution DVD last week also for $16.99 there's a $10 rebate if you buy both movies (searched DVDTalk.com), making each DVD only $11.99 :D

Kami,

I ripped it to mpg2. Came out really really nice. (this was before I watched it) I should have bought the DC like you, I love that movie. :)

<< I did. I needed a new movie bad >>



For a second there I thought you said, "I needed a new bad movie"! :D
The Rice and Ridiculous is one of the campiest POS I've ever seen... what do expect out of Hollywood? Horrendous inaccuracies and "market-pleasing" modifications are typical... oh well... R&R is a great comedy, like DeathRace2000

I didn't want to start a new thread so I dug this one up.
I borrowed the DVD from a friend.
I am SO glad I did not buy this movie. It is just too funny.
Man, I can not believe how bad this movie was, ew.

I love cars, but I was fast and furious to get out of the video store without purchasing this movie.

f&f had cool cars and nice racing scenes....
but the acting was terrible. many scenes were poorly put together. the plot wasn't exactly realistic, especially with the whole "race wars" event....

any how...i downloaded it instead of buying it :p

I did!

Got a previously viewed DVD at Blockbuster for 7.50

Sorry I havent read the rest of this thread but the scenes with the Charger were worth it. Did a little street racing in the early 60s & 70s in Pa and Ca and thats what the cars were like then.

The ricers on NO2 may be faster but just listen and feel !!!!!!

Movie overall sucked with little or no acting . Vin Diesel was cool however.

Question: Where did these $3 an hour (law abiding) people get the $10,000 to put under the hood for a questionable 10 second car??? HOLLYWOOD in action. ;)
