The Escorts are  :cool: they used genuine parts too, Arch kits etc. not so thrown together really as each car cost 12 - 15k and their was 6 of them

The cars I saw down longcross test track were terrible up close. They get battered in the film sets anyway I guess  :grin:

The Mk1's used were certainly not thrown together as per Blue seems to think, they were seriously swwet cars to start with

I really enjoyed it, I will say there were a couple of flat spots that bored me but for the most part it was enjoyable. It is what it is, and at least they aren't using tricked up decalled cars anymore and actually have some good cars on there.

By the way, how long was that runway at the end! Think about it... :whistle:
Title: Re: Fast & furious 6
Post by: Mr Blue on 22 May 2013, 11:39
Don't believe everything you see on the net. It's a movie set remember.

Yes they have 1 nice car - the rest are thrown together for the set  :grin:

actually enjoyed it, i made the comment about the runway mid way through that chase / fight / plane scene lol  :grin:

some cool cars, some bad acting, the Rock tag teaming with Vin and doing some kind of WWF clothes line move.

Whats not to like?  :grin:

Funny I walked out of the cinema saying to my mates, that was the longest runway EVER!

There is always going to be plot-holes like that.  :grin: Worst case scenario for her was she grazed her head when hitting the ground.  :grin:

I enjoyed the tube fight scene, that guy was hard as nails! haha!

Police office: "Oi, stop right there!" (in typical London accent).

9 Coronas out of 10
9 NOS bottles out of 10
9 upshifts out of 10
9 "menagé!"s out of 10
You'll need more than 9 crotch rockets out of 10

   :grin:   :grin:   :grin:

I may have enjoyed this film.

The one thing that has definately got better is the quality of the fight scenes,
Tube station fight(s)
Prison fight
Brawl on the plane

Just seen it, thought it was pretty rubbish tbh. I actually used to like these films as they were actually about the cars. Seems they have sold out and are now happy to put in boring black BMW's and use loads of cars as advertisements and just make it an action film. Add to that the fact they are putting that nob who turns up at the end in the next film, utter garbage. please bring back Skylines and a bit of car chat rather than huge explosions and product placement to appeal to the drones. Don't even get me started on a Range Rover keeping up with a GTR.  :sick:
