The Fast and the Furious (Lap 14)
Manage episode 403316743 series 2490496
It's time to kick off Lap 14, our '80s Cult Movie lap, and we're joined by Walt Hickey and Kim Bhasin to talk about The Fast and the Furious! After getting a refresher of their history with this movie, we kick things off by talking about the most '80s elements of this movie -- and the associated weirdness of this ask. Walt already starts connecting this franchise to D&D. We look at The Fast and the Furious as both the start of a franchise and as a standalone movie, we admire the second unit directorial work, and we wonder if this franchise is now a unicorn in Hollywood. We talk about Dom's skills (or lack thereof) as a party host, we analyze the cops at play in this movie, and we talk about where we would have expected a sequel to this movie to have gone. We try to make sense of Race Wars. Walt determines the one place this franchise has not gone.
