    What would you suggest he do instead? Stuff em' down his trousers and run stiff-arm through the exit door?

    Rented it last night -
    The sound is insane. Had to turn my reciever down by 15%. I think I losened the foundation with this one. One of the Helicopter scenes the sound goes across the front, to the left surround and into the rear - flawless. Nice cars - excited to see my Eclipse in da house. Actually i'm thinking Mit dropped some bank to show off the Lancer EVO and the Eclipse.
    Picture seemed grainy at times - color was excellent. Movie seemed to just get tired after the second half. Lots of eye candy.

    Movie ***1/2 Fun

    That's a supercharged Eclipse, notice the blow off valve sound when he shifts and such ;)

    I was thinking about picking it up, as it's much better than the first one, but then I thought about the Chemical Brothers DVD that I need to pick up ;)

    I will buy it. It wouldn't suprise me if Mitsubishi dropped some funding for the movie....NOS did for the first one, which is filled with NOS references throughout....thats so ****. I figure if I bought ****, which was pathetic, how could I not buy this one :)

    I own and I will say it wasn't terrible.Not as good as the first,most aren't.

    It might give the feel of a rushed a bit movie.....but It's fine.

    would the eyecandy be the cars of the fact that there are probably hot barely dressed chicks running around all the time???
    Hell if it's the second reason i might pick it up ;D don't much go for sport import myself i prefer american muscle; what muscle cars did they have in it?? personally i'd love to have a roadrunner superbird with the 440, that's a car you could have fun with
