Great news everyone! Your favorite dynamic duo since George Clooney and Chris O'Donnell are back to make some more movie magic. That's right, Paul "Super-Fast-and-Super-Fly (for a white-guy)" Walker and his good buddy Vin "So-Furious-It-Hurts" Diesel will be making their first appearance on-screen together since the first installment of the cinematic masterpiece The Fast and the Furious. We're sure you'll agree that the second film was ultimately a let down, if only for the fact that Sir "2-Fast-4-U" Walker reprised his role while Mr. "Not-Quite-So-Furious-Anymore" Diesel did not. Although we were able to catch Diesel's drift in the movie number tré, the absence of the drift-less Walker left this particular moviegoer wanting. Now that we know the two are back together at last, the only question left unanswered is this: how could the fourth film be any Faster or more Furiouser than the first three? Perhaps you'll join us at the theater and we can find out together.

The movies may not be great, but this writeup is worse.
Justin @ Oct 4th 2007 3:16PM
couldn't agree more.
Bryan @ Oct 4th 2007 9:26PM
couldn't agree morest
Tommy @ Oct 4th 2007 3:16PM
Agreed, the write-up is horrible

I hope the movie company realizes how corny the first two were (the third wasnt toooooo bad) and try to make a legit, street racing kind of movie. Real terms (no sr swpas into honda) and not over do it too much with cheesy acting parts. I have a hunch that it could be a euro car kind of thing. And NO lil bow wow.
Jeremiah DeSeguirant @ Oct 4th 2007 3:29PM
I thought the third was way better than the first 2. Without question.

The first one was original, the others were luke-warm. Fully expect the next one to suck.
Enough Already.
V @ Oct 4th 2007 7:10PM
Um, the first one was the least original. While entertaining, it was really just Point Break but with street racing in place of surfing.
Robert Aitchison @ Oct 4th 2007 3:33PM
The first one was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.

Please, dear God. No.
Will @ Oct 4th 2007 3:38PM
I hope to God they call it 4 Fast 4 Furious, or at least Faster and More Furiouser.
Chad @ Oct 4th 2007 3:46PM
They were silly but entertaining.

If Brian O'Connor is coming back, then his good old friend Roman Pierce won't be too far away hopefully. Be pretty interesting for Diesel's character meet the reason why Brian let him go. But, other then that, what other kind of plot can take place? I smell money seekers milking this thing to death.

Sure they were bad films, but they were somewhat entertaining films. The CGI ride THROUGH the Rotary in part 1 was a slick effect. The 2nd film was certainly the worst, but the 3rd Tokyo film was really pretty fun. I liked the drift training sequence in the Nissan powered Mustang. And the opening "Beater vs. Viper" sequence was fun too. I dunno, I'm sure the 4th film will be bad, but I'm sure it'll still be entertaining in a bad way. No one goes to films like this expecting top shelf material. Just some fun car sequences, and some bad one-liners.

The last part of your statement was awesome, it's really true though. If you're going to see any Fast in the Furious or let alone duo movie of walker and diesel then chances are you're ready for a disappointment. It's not like the series claimed to be some avant garde masterpiece of motoring.
I could only hope that we might be able to break away from the "street racing but secretly drug running / tv stealing... wait thats all they really had... nevermind. But you get the point.

Paul Walker is a piece of soggy cardboard as far as acting goes. And Vin Diesel kind of pissed away what momentum he had with ridiculous movies like Chronicles of Riddick.
The third one was the best BTW (except for the stupid Mustang at the end).
Justin @ Oct 4th 2007 4:20PM
eh I liked Riddick oddly enough...
The Pacifier on the other hand...

No, riddick was fricking amazing. The kids movies where he baby sits and what not is what killed his momentum.
