Too many men in the movies? There are too many women in the movies, and none of the other 57 genders. We got to have more asexuals (polysexuals, others) in the movies...😋

As much as I hate Disney, at least they are not Communist Chinese controlled- yet. Other American studios have shat on Americans by pushing Communist Chinese superiority in films, ruining a lot of formerly decent American film franchises.

I'll opine more later, but this is a must see in a high tech movie house w/ the small block & FE's vibrating through your every pore via the sound systems...

Yes, the Dolby 7.1 the theatre sounded awesome!

So let me get this straight. Leo DiCaprio, who is probably the one actor most associated with the crusade against Global Warming, is starring in a movie that celebrates cars.

SMFH.

The story was what carried the movie, not the actors.

Very historically accurate, but the one part I wonder about was this the real Enzo/Ford feud?

The supporting actors in this did a fantastic job really and made the movie.

The other actors made up for Damon and Bale. They really sold the story.

Uhm, no. DeCaprio is not in FvF. The movie does not show FoMoCo in a good light, but anyone who would promote the War Criminal Bob MacNamara should not be praised.

Apparently so. Enzo actually played Fiat against Ford. It fiddles with history for dramatic effect, (Miles was driving at the the '65 LeMans, and DNFed with a gearbox, instead of back in LA, listening on the radio.) but, generally, it got the high points.

I saw it last night, and it was great. My wife (who is not into cars at all) really enjoyed it too.

If you liked “The World’s Fastest Indian” you will like this one, too.

I have to admit when I heard of it I wondered who on earth would think this was a good idea.

Then I saw the trailer.

And I thought that if it was half as good as it looks then it should be a decent flick.

Of course part of that might be because the one car I ever lusted after was a Cobra 427.

That car is ART.

Everything else is just transportation.

“A reboot of Charlie’s Angels.”

I know a Freeper who worked on the first reboot. Contrary to rumors, Bill Murray and Lucy L got along great. It’s the other Angel that Bill had an issue with that is not reported.

That was a good review, describing my feelings as I left the theater last night.

Ken Miles wife (Caitriona Balfe) probably deserves an academy award nomination.

Reading up on Twitter, Outlander fans are showing up at the theater for FvF solely because Balfe stars in it. I forgot what a cult following that series has.

And they're enjoying the film!

Well, the writer/director recently boasted that she’s formed some kind of board to insure abortion is seen as a positive in Hollywood films—first fruits being a Netflix film where a woman says abortion made her feel so good—so we’re dealing with a hyper-political creature from the pit.

I saw the movie yesterday and halfway through it, I was thinking, “wow, these real men are a total turn on.”

I am a woman, btw.
