The Fast & Furious Thread

Why bother with any other forum?
Forum rules
We once roamed the vast forums of Corona Coming Attractions. Some of us had been around from The Before Times, in the Days of Excelsior, while others of us had only recently begun our trek. When our home became filled with much evil, including the villainous Cannot-Post-in-This-Browser and the dreaded Cannot-Log-In, we flounced away most huffily to this new home away from home. We follow the flag of Jubboiter and talk about movies, life, the universe, and everything, often in a most vulgar fashion. All are welcome here, so long as they do not take offense to our particular idiom.

And yet you wonder why I don't post around here as much anymore!

All your fault, Dalty. ALL YOUR FAULT!

But if I do 7 then I will feel duty bound to do 8, 9 & 10 when they arrive and then that's about 22hrs of my life I won't get back.

Not even close to the same thing. One of them is a tremendously overrated pile of trash and the other is Furious 7.

I can't help it. It's there now - available on my planner ready for viewing pleasure. Every time I could just watch it, think "Go ahead, it's harmless fun, most of the others were entertaining enough...." but then, then.......

The Adam doth protest too much for me to be able to take his stance on either movie very seriously.

I don't feel like I've protested too much on Fury Road. It's hardly the HIMYM finale of action films.

That's all it took for the creation of Fake Strider.

This is what I'm talking about, by the way:
Why not both? / Strider
Strider was once a regular user of the Cinematic Lounge, but for unknown reasons he withdrew from the Lounge and limited his posts to other parts of Corona Coming Attractions. Also for unknown reasons, Goiter retconned the Strider persona by making him out to be someone who preferred the response "Why not both?" to questions that give two options. In fact, there is only one traceable instance of the actual Strider's use of this phrase.

Strider's use of the phrase: October 21, 2010
Goiter's appropriation of the phrase: May 31, 2012

I waited more than a year and a half to appropriate the phrase. It needed some vetting.

I needed to make sure it was legit. It was.

The next step was private firm test groups. There, it shone. It was clear it was something special.

Finally, I prayed to Crom. I prayed stridently. "Crom," I said, "I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men, bad men, or some combination of the two. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two could be considered separately or as a unit. That's what's important! Variety pleases you, Crom, so grant me one request. Grant me the possibility of both! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!"

The news keeps coming out. Slow yet steady. A quarter mile at a time, if you will.

I'm hoping they give Tyrese's character his own series of action comedy films. Maybe he and Ludacris can fight crime.

Furious 7 has been named the "most mistake filled" film of 2015 with a whopping 41 continuity errors.

What does this mean?

It's now an AWARD WINNING FILM!!!!! Get on it, Dimple!
