When I tell people at work I love the movies, I get weird blank stares.

IDK, saw the first one in high school, peeled out of the movie theater in my mom's van afterwards, and have loved them all ever since. Even tokyo drift which i did not see originally, went back and watched it and I loved that one too.

And every time I see the preview, i think to myself..."Fast five was over the top, six looks even more over the top..." and then I get a little giddy to see it. Just got done rewatching the first five to "prep".

Maybe it's the 14 year old in me. Any one agree?

    I like em' enough to watch when they come to the redbox.



    I don't see enough movies at the theater to justifying seeing them when they come out.

    Being Asian and having a lot of my culture in the "rice burner" cult, I haven't had any interest in watching them since the first one. In the SF Bay Area, there's a lot of BS with guys that own cars like this taking freeways hostage, or thinking they have the same skills as the professional drivers in the movies. Could the movies be influencing them to drive like idiots? Maybe.

    I will probably catch it on DVD when that comes out just to witness how bad the acting is and laugh.

    Some of it unintentionally hilarious.

    Probably...In high school after the first movie came out in, street racing became a thing that Sheriffs office had to watch out for.

    Loved all the Fast movies and 6 looks like a total eye orgasm. Bad a** cars and hotties driving them. Oh yeah, oh yeah! We'll see it this weekend for sure. And the hubs won't even mind that I pretend he's Dom afterwards ;)

    Maybe im crazy but I don't think paul walker is actually that bad of an actor, ok he won't be winning any oscars any time soon but I'm surprised he can't get any other roles.

    Vin Deisel however is like me doing a bad sylvester stallone impression after I have been drinking and the guys don't even bother trying to act.
