I remember being struck by a number of things: how pointless it was, how bad the acting was, how long it actually took me to realize that it wasn't a spoof. But it must have made money, because they made a sequal. And now a third one. I suppose that it wouldn't be that tough to develop the subsequent screenplays - they probably spent more time choosing the rims for the main cars. But really... a third one? really?
So, as my own personal antidote to Vin Diesel driving fast (probably to get away from the awful dialogue with that other guy whose name I don't remember and who may be the only actor in the world, besides the beloved Keanu Reeves, who can make Vin look so good), here are some sunset shots I got tonight on my way home from a little road trip to Edmonton.
Oh, and it was just a sunset, so I didn't bother to post a bazillion pictures... the others look pretty similar to these. But if you want to see these ones bigger, you can do that here...

I'm sorry Darryl, you are behind the times. Number 4 is coming out in a few days:

I don't know how I could possibly have missed that.
I'm going to go cry, now.
Numinous and sublime.
The pics ain't bad either.
I had to look up "numinous", but thanks, Dandy. Vin always brings out the best in me... ;-)
Wow. Phenom. The colors are terrific.
I never watch bad movies. Not ever. The only bad movie I've been forced to watch in the last few years was Shrek 2 or 3 or whatever crappy tortured version it was. It was so awful it was offensive.
I think I must be a snob. If so, I truly can't help it.
If you say "discerning" instead of "snob" it sounds better. You know, for next time. In any case, I hear you...
