Film What Do You Think of the Fast & Furious 6 Trailer?

Posted by Paul Constant on Tue, Feb 5, 2013 at 3:30 PM

Welp! They have officially made a half-dozen Fast & Furious movies. Here's the trailer for the sixth, out this May:

It looks like Hollywood is finally cutting the middleman out and letting cocaine direct its own movies without human involvement. What do you think?

You son-of-a-bitch, I practically spit a full mouthful of coffee on my monitor when I read your post. Funny shit.

The only one I saw was the 5th and I liked it. It's a B-movie, but a good genuine B-movie, not the ironic kind.

I voted for the last option since I was beating it hard at the same time as reading slog - not really anything to do with the post...

In a world of so much Fail and Prank, Russian dashboard cams still reign:

I think this movie is not for me. I giggled while watching the trailer. Giggled at parts that I'm sure they thought were supposed to be cool. I'm pretty sure giggling wasn't the intended response.

I'll pass.

It's like Lord of the Rings for a different sort of nerd. I'm cool with it.

When did they stop titling the movies like a scoreboard: Fast 5 Furious 3 ?

I figured the next film would be especially focused on furiousness since it needed to catch up.

These movies are basically non-stop gay sex, only with cars.

@8: Oh sweetie, it's not like I haven't seen #3 on, you know, Saturday afternoon hangover TV at least five times. No, just no. Not worth it.

I think it's pretty ludacris.

Fast and Furious 6

Brought to you by Brawndo... it's got electrolytes!

@6

You're really missing out on one of the best movies if you skipped #3. F&F: Tokyo Drift is one of the finest movies in the series. You go in expecting that it's going to be full of bad acting, machismo, hot cars, and extreme orientalism - AND THEN IT SATISFIES ON ALL COUNTS!!!

So my recommendation is that you watch it (even if you skip 4/5/6)

Never seen a single one of the FF series but seeing this makes me confused as to why there are so many guns involved. Wasn't this a racing movie?

I'm kinda liking the suggestions from @3 and @4.

Also, I was confused by the poll option for "I stopped going to these movies UNTIL they brought in The Rock..." Where is the option for "I stopped going to these movies AS SOON AS they brought in The Rock"?

Nothing against The Rock per se. Truthfully, I stopped watching the movies when the third one had neither Vin Diesel nor Paul Walker in it. Everything just stopped making sense at that point.
