Haha... Redline was great, you know it. The cheese that goes into theses street racer movies is classic and worth a watch if not just for the laughs alone. I don't think I'll pay money to see it, but I'm still interested in seeing it. I'll watch anything that involves fast cars, hot chicks, and violence. If you arent interested in those things then you are an un american homo jk... But seriously..

i just hope there are as many mistakes as the first one, so i have something to pick out when watching it

me and my roommate printed a list off similar to this one
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0232500/goofs
and watched the movie to see if all were true, some were nit picky and not necessarily true. One that was on the other list said that paul walker up shifted 8 times in the opening scene around the track, stuff like that.

and when the civic passes underneath the semi trailer, there is a support beam and only one axle, but when they show the side view of the trailer, no support beam and two axles.

good fun

i have a love/hate relationship with mistakes in movies, cause i love looking for them, but hate it cause when i find them just pay attention to it...

like every movie that has a gun for example... a certain gun will have a 10 round magazine and they'll shoot 15 times without reloading, neat trick if you ask me

I also love how in redline an S7, Carrera GT, Enzo, and CCX(?) are all equal in a straight line.

I am actually looking forward to the movie. As far as racing movies it is one of the only ones that can actually hold attention and put a story along w/ it. I know a lot of people don't think they had a good story line but hell I have seen normal movies that were a lot worse when it came to a story. Tokyo drift wasn't a bad movie at all.
