Fast and furious Tokyo Drift was better than the rest as far as reality goes. Minimal CG. But honestly, in the first F+F where the supra vs Charger race happened, it would have been nice if they modeled the hero car off a real car or built one that could have really pulled the wheels on the street. We don't need a pole vaulting charger. I am with you guys on this. Enough explosions and musclecar destruction with an oh well attitude afterward. Lets see some real footage but with better angles than your typical streetfire vid.
Jim Nilsen is right about people's imagination. It just sucks because real car guys have that imagination, just look at the project updates. We are the ones that want these movies, it's just a shame they are not catered to us. Let's look at the first F+F:
1 I went hunting and won my first street race bet that night to a modded WRX pushing 20 lbs.
2 How many ricers came out of the wood work after that movie in addition to what was out there. I mean REAL rice. There are websites dedicated to pointing it out.
3 The word ALL true car guys HATE "noss" in reference to N.O.S.
I actually kicked a customers friend out of my shop for using that word. Hollywood is not your father!
