Driven or the Fast and the Furious?
I know that both of the movies sucked, but which one was worse? Only vote if you have seen both please.

The Fast and the Furious, definately. That's like comparing dropping a bowling ball on you foot, and droping a bowling alley on your foot.

too close to call
I got entertainment value out of both movies but I probably am better at "suspending my disbelief" than most when it comes to these types of movies. My decision was so close that I forgot which one I voted for immediately after I hit the button. Driven had some interesting race footage but some seriously unbelievable wrecks. F & F destoyed the best car in the whole damn movie. We need a movie about 60's muscle cars where the only cars that are destoyed are the ground scraping, stickered out bubblebees.

Jeff,
Ya, but stoping a semi with a Honda? How many cross country truckers couldn't handle an import.
And like Bannon said, the only car without goofy neon lights on the bottom, was the only car that was totaled.

My son and I went to see Spider-man this week.
In the previews of coming movies, the new Vin Diesel movie "XXX" was shown. When my son and I saw him, we both said "I live my life a quarter mile at a time".
Everyone around us cracked up.
Drivin was bad, Fast and the Furious sucked......hard

I had to laugh when I saw Driven. The only good part was the actual race footage. The footage they had of the movie cars was rediculous. They used completely different wheels and the proportions of the car were all wrong. Not to mention the half mile flight that the one car took into the pond. That's pretty impressive, especially for a car that generates around 4000+ pounds of downforce.

Driven gets the nod for the suck award.
At least Fast and Furious had a real car, the Charger.
Be warned that the movie Point Doom is a really bad Cobra movie. At the end of the movie four people drive off in a Taurus and leave the guys Cobra at the beach in the middle of the night.
Cheers,

going to rent Gumball or Lemans

Hmmm, both were pretty bad (in an entertaining sort of way) One thing I did notice, the streets were not safe after a showing of the "The Rice and the Ridiculous" Seems every kid had to get out there and show their stuff (usually in Mommy's Accord  )

Alright, they both sucked -- and I have both on DVD. Heck I even have Cannon Ball 1 and 2 on DVD. Connon Ball 2 sucked worse than Driven or Fast -n- Fluffy. All of them are silly movies.
None of them are as serious and meaningful as Gumball Ralley! 
(LeMans is STILL the best car movie, bar none.)

Jeff, I'm starting to wonder about you! Just about anyone that is a TRUE gearhead will give you the same answer. ;p~

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"!!!!!
