I have the first one on DVD, and I will admit when the exhausts start blaring and the blowoff valves go whapssshhhh'ing, I get a little giddy inside. Even though they botched the technical jargon, it sounded like they at least sort of know what they were talking about. The plot totally revolved around street racers, who just so happen to be involved in some criminal activities other than racing, but they do it street racer-style.

The best thing good about the movie was it had respect for the cars. Most hollywood movies, they show a nice car, specifically so they can trash it at some point later on. The original F&F only trashed the green Eclipse and the Charger at the end. The Eclipse getting trashed was a plot point, because it gave them a reason to build the Supra. The Charger was a plot point because Vin Diesel was going to use it to try and run away from the law.

The second one was utterly ridiculous. The plot was some stupid druglord with a mansion nonsense, and somehow some street racing was sort of involved. It didn't even attempt anything close to realism. The tech talk was a bunch of BS. Freakin car disabler guns and GPS trackers wired into the ECU (yeah, like those exist in real life ) were pretty much all the jargon the script could be bothered to include. The cars were for the most part cheezy, and were getting wrecked and messed up all over the damn place. No respect for the cars. I saw it in the theater, and while I did stay through the whole thing, I wasn't exactly happy to be there by the end.

Hopefully even though this third one is going to be about drifting which is the automotive uber-fad of the moment, they'll at least try to make it as realistic as the first one, and go easy on the car wrecks. Maybe regular movie people expect a nice car to get wrecked as soon as it's shown on screen, but I know I as a car guy always hope the car makes it to the end of the movie intact. That's why I liked the original F&F.
