Just came back from watching the movie. The drifting is not bad though I wish there was more cockpit scenes and a bit more drift battles. I couldn't take my eyes off Keiko Kitagawa....
FAST AND THE FURIOUS is not a movie.

i'll agree to that. tokyo drift? sounds very initial D
Yep, shocked me that the girl looked like Keiko Kitagawa. Afterwards I searched and found out it was her. <3
One thing I hate about American movies that are supposed to take place in Japan is the fact that most of the Japanese people in the movie aren't actually Japanese.
I remember seeing a bunch of Chinese people in the movie. It is hard to tell between asians (i'm asian myself). Ever tried the site, alllooksame.com?
It was ok but the final race was ruined by the editing I couldn't even tell why DK went off the road because the cuts were so frantically fast
i agree to much this scene that scene
That's because IT SUCKS.
>>5 holy shit it's sailor mars!
it was kinda weird. half was filmed in tokyo and the other half in CA. you can tell the parts that were filmed in CA considering...girls just don't dress like that in tokyo for the most part. i've seen a few slutty girls in tokyo, but they are way more modest than the girls in this film. those big white disco boots are so out of fashion for a few years now. the garage scenes were totally filmed overseas, with all the ass and belly shirt showing. and the girls with the random huge white makeup across their face? were they supposed to me manba girls? or some new breed of never before seen shibuya girls who dont care as long as they have a white stripe painted across their face.
i admit i really liked the scene where they were getting chased through shibuya, and they went through the hachiko crossing without hurting the crossers...but the story really didn't have much to it.
Having non-japanese actors not a huge issue, what's more important is having good actors. Initial D had this controversy among the fan community for its live action HK film.
While having authenticy is important, it is crucial to actors who can play the characters. Yes some actors are not japanese, but they didn't act or sound chinese or korean either.
I don't think it is a huge deal about where scenes of the film were located. "A garage in Japan is going to look the same in japan as it will in LA."
You can't have everything, there has to be a compromise. Otherwise the film couldn't have been done.
I thought it was pretty cool cuz I Love the cars. They'r so bling. HAHA... I think itz so stupid itz not mostly filmed in Tokyo. Itz supposed to b 'bout TOKYO drift. They should capture what Jap ppl r really like! Not make them look like sluts
anything to do with "Fast and the Furious" is stupid amerikan fluff lols
I couldn't enjoy the movie anymore after I saw fucking Brad Taylor from Home Improvement get arrested for street racing. I was expecting Tim and Jill to come bail him out and Mark and Randy to make fun of him after that.
And then when Sean got sent to Japan to live with his dad ... 'cos he's DANGEROUS
And when he came home late and his dad hits with him with this: "Sean ... have you been racing?" OMFG, that killed me. That was the single most entertaining piece of dialouge I've ever heard. I think it tops Avril Lavigne's "Dude, wanna crash the mall?!" line from her "Complicated" music video.
fuk uiy
Boring..(-.-)ZzZz. Watch intial d movies much better
have you seen tokyo drift. the real tokyo drift? it's about a deliver boy in (guess what) tokyo who is the yber on drifting

FAST AND FURIOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUS
DRIFT DRIFT DRIFT
FAST AND FURIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUS.
don't you mean initial d?
it wasn't called tokyo drift.
bump for Kitagawa Keiko
Kitagawa Keiko was she the lead female?
Cos I thought she looked kind of weird. Something with her face I couldn't pick out...like, not natural looking?
