TWO DAYS AND COUNTING TIL I SEE IT *bites knuckles*

Take some earplugs...and maybe some Dramamine. It is NONSTOP rollercoaster action.

You're right, physics is their bitch when it comes to F&F. (That was hysterical). But when it comes right down to it, fandom is just one extravagant handwave after another. *G*

[khaleesian]

True enough...and it certainly was a visual feast. I confess, I'm partial to the shots of Brian in prison orange...;)

[ixchel55]

Have you gotten very far with your prison story? That will be quite interesting. *G*

Saw it last night, and I'm still in post-movie(that I've been stalking and waiting for for 2 years)-mode.
In short, I am in shock and unable to express my thoughts.

BUT YOU WILL SEE THEM SOON ;D

LOL, awesome

Brilliant article about the vault. Can't say I fully understood all the formulas ;) but the 480+ cars punchline had me laughing.

And here is something they may do in the next film to keep the stunts interesting, among other things (or do more of if you count a short scene in London): http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/video/2013/may/24/saudi-arabia-sidewalk-skiing-video

It was pretty obvious to me at the time (considering how Tej described the vault) that two Dodge Chargers....even the Hemi V8s were not going to have much heft against it. ( I drive a Dodge Charger, I should know). The comments of the article are the best, actually...when actual geeks start parsing it. But it looked cool, right? And that was a sweet moment when Brian takes out Zizi and Dom's all: thought I told you to leave! And Brian's like: I had to make a call! (smooch, smooch)
