The fast and The furious (1&2)

Bond mocies(not really car movies but car def' has a big rule)

come on ppl
SUGGEST!
 
I think the poll need an answer inbetween Sucks and Rocks.

Car movies I liked other than the ones mentioned (doesn't mean they're all good :) ) :
Bullit
Vanishing Point
Le Mans
Cannonball Run
Smokey and the Bandit
Against all Odds (There's just one good scene though)
Blues Brothers
Ronin
Mad Max
The Italian Job
 
I dont think it sucks. It was enternatining but it was factualy wrong in most spots.

Oh, ya. Ronin... awesome car chase.
 
I saw both of them and they suck.. it's so ridiculous and wrong... :roll:

entertaining but frustrating too...
 
Bullit is boring for the most part, except for the car chase.
Ronin is a good movie, and it has a few car chases in it.
Cannonball Run is (Gumball 3000-ish, duh!), it's a lot of fun.
I'd highly reccommend buying the DVD and listening to the commentary, a lot of it is :shock: :shock: .
 
gone in 60 seconds, all the smokey and the bandits, and all the cannonball runs will always be my favorites
 
Gone in 60 seconds, Ronin were some very good movies. They weren't a bunch of goofy teenagers with shiny cars. Nicholas Cage played hsi role really well and could almost express the love and passion for cars that I'm sure many of us have.

Ronin had an amazing chase scene (not handbrake turn after handbrake turn after handbrake turn, but some actual powersliding and high speed engine revving chasing).

FnF however was just horrible. I watched both at home and I screamed at the monitor of my computer at almost everything they said. "You probably blew the welds on the intake manifold".
 
Death Race 2000.

Greatest car movie ever made! :p

End of thread.
 
i hate NOS to!

black thunder or sth like that, with tom cruise and nicole kidman, that was a cool movie imo

and the F&F could have been cool, but they wanted it to have a story :roll:. it they just made a movie about racing and the work involved in cars it should have been awesome. it should have been sth like mischief teckademics.

and gone in 60s isn't realy a car movie imo. sure they steal cars, but they hardly drive them, and at the end you know nothing about them
 
When you talk about Gone in 60 seconds, I hope you don't mea that jumped up heap of shit remake with cage and vinnie jones in? Utter junk. The original by Halicki was much better. a 45 minute long car chase, going all around everywhere, from Long beach, LA, and everywhere else. the two other movies int he series were pretty damned good toop (I'm actually going to build me a copy of Slicer, from Deadline Autotheft)

The fast and furious films were crap though. contrivence after contrivence, the bridge-jump, the ejector seats, etc.

i'm surprised no-ones metioned The Love bug, eevn if its just one to get the kids started. The Gumball Rally is another good film to get the kids started with, and so is "its a mad mad mad mad world.

Thers also a pretty good char chase bit in If looks could kill/Teen agent (IMDB - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102095 )
 
I have the original Gone in 60 seconds, and quite frankly, I don't think it's all that good.
Some other ones in the series, like "the junkman", are just downright awful.

BTW, edit your linky, it's got a ")" at the end.
 
better? :)

Yes, the acting is bad, but the car chases are great. That is what its about after alll?

BTW, nosispower - "You probably blew the welds on the intake manifold" isn't all THAT contrived. i used to have a Beige Austin Metro City (f-reg) that would blow the welds on the exhaust manifold.
ok, let me explain. It STARTED as a metro city, but I stiuck the tickford 1.3 in, with the twin carb, then I went twin-turbo instead. the torque would, in the end, often pull the exhaust and the manifold away from each other. In the end, we welded (well, brazed, since it was cast iron manifold, and stainless exhaust) and then it'd come off every two weeks or so. Torque was so bad, at the end, that the car almost ripped in half, acorss the drivers footwell.

Pity, as the car looks completely untouched fromthe outside. Anyway, it is posible. My dadused to rally, had a Ford Mexico rally car, probably be class N under todays rulings, it had welds all over the manifolds. Get the piece in place, and just add a few tacks with an arc to help the suual methods hold it in place.
