Dog Sh!t vs. Bull Sh!t

The nod IMHO goes to Driven simply because it attempted to reflect an actual racing venue and utterly fails in comparison to LeMans or Grand Prix.

To me, Fast and the Furious falls within the same genre as Gumball or the original Gone in 60 Seconds, and fails to capture the fanciful (though truth may have been stranger than slight fiction in Gumball) fun of those movies--it tried to be too serious.

Obviously, LeMans and Gumball were the best of each of the two types. Cut out the bullsh!t dialoge and give me the racing (LeMans) or fvck it all and let's have fun (Gumball).

I wished someone would do a video (or DVD) of the greatest car chases/drives from the movies, with all the crap cut--just like porno movies with just the best clips. The last 15 minutes of LeMans, Bullett, Ronin, different parts of Gumball, etc.--heck, throw in parts of Speed when the bus takes the off-ramp. We're talking "money shots"!!!!!
