Nobody really comments on Han's Asianness or Roman's black-ness or Dom's ... whatever he is. It's a universe where it's accepted that the world is dirverse. The homogeneous groups tend to be the bad guys, actually. We're breaking down walls, people.Mark Ahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00695975412662760562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-33876292367316101042015-04-02T12:27:40.709-05:002015-04-02T12:27:40.709-05:002 Fast 2 Furious is such a good time.

Though personnally i would swap 1 with 2 in the order, 2 for me is just perfect insanity for me from the pimping of the Universal logo to the speed racer effects on the races to that boat jump! :)Richard A.

The first time I ran through the franchise I took it easy on <i>Fast & Furious</i> just because I was so glad to see the gang back together but it dropped back to last place on the latest go around. I might have a tie for worst CGI: Whenever they hit the NOS in <i>2 Fast 2 Furious</i> they do this really cheesy blur thing - don't like it. But still love it.<br /><br />Have you ever seen the totally rando post-credit sequence in the first one? Vin Diesel driving in Mexico with a voiceover repeating an earlier quote (and not even acting, like it's just Vin Diesel reading the script for the first time): "I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters. For those 10 seconds, I'm free." Possibly the most pointless post-credit scene ever. Also, I still love it. :PSolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03114869401584310369noreply@blogger.com
