my friend is an extra in it. he only did it to see why Justin Lin would direct such a blatantly racist movie. its the "typical white guy goes to japan and beats all the asians at their own specialty while stealing all their girls at the same time" story. from what he said, justin lin was trying to make it less racist. actually, my friend wasnt even supposed to be in the scene he was in, but he had talked to justin lin in the past (before fnf3) about asians in hollywood so justin lin took the original dude out and put my friend in, which was pretty cool.
ya i'm gonna see it. my friend is in it. haha

Yeah I saw those Falken Drift cars in Berkeley, Soggy. Pretty cool stuff. Actually, the Mustang was the best drifter out of the cars they had there, IMO.

alot of scenes were shot in LA, and i got to be one of those background people that looks stunned as they drift by weaving in and out of traffic. funny thing is, the film's supposed to be set in japan, and i don't even look japanese, i'm half white and half filipino. i even saw some black and mexican people, not very japanese at all
the movie may be horrible, but i give props to the drivers. they were quite skilled at what they do.

I think it's funny how everytime one of these movies come out police pressure on modified vehicles goes through the roof. Like the new "street racing" training videos and what not. I think that training video is just a prerelease of FF3 and the cops were so busy looking at the *** that they forgot to look for illegal parts.
if they are gonna start busting people for stuff like intakes and what not they really need some real training or it's gonna come back to bight them in the *** in wasted money in court.
Brings up the thought....why is it that so many companies that target hondas spend the time and effort to get parts through C.A.R.B. but so few companies focused on subarus don't?
Hmmmmm.....
