well if 5 was really good I'd have to see it haven't gotten time to mess with movies sad.gif

all of em were good. Tokyo Drift wasn't great, but it was good. Easily the weakest link, but still fun to watch once.

Five was fantastic.

Director Justin Lin and his Fast And Furious casting team are continuing to sweep the world for interesting performers and have been cherry picking people from all sorts of movies. The latest addition is Indonesia?s Joe Taslim, who might be more than a little familiar to those of you who thrilled to the kick-ass antics of The Raid earlier in the year.

Taslim will play a villain named Jah in Fast Six (or whatever it ends up being called), a cold-blooded killer who employs both martial arts manoeuvres and some serious parkour abilities to battle Vin Diesel and co. Sounds like a good choice to us!

As well as Diesel, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez and Dwayne Johnson are all returning for this outing, which also adds franchise newcomers Gina Carano and Luke Evans.

Universal is keeping the plot a secret for now, but apparently Diesel?s usual gang of thieving / driving types will go up against Evans? squad when they both target the same job.

Lin is cranking the cameras now and the movie will screech into cinemas on May 24 next year. If it's even half as demented as Fast Five, we will be there with bells on.

Fast & Furious 6 is to be filmed in Glasgow, it has been confirmed.

Around 250 people will work on the evening shoots for the latest instalment of the action series in late August and early September.

However, none of the main cast - including Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson or Paul Walker - will be present at the time.

Glasgow was chosen by the movie's producers after a meeting earlier this year with the city's Film Office.

The scenes will shoot in Cadogan Street and Broomielaw, reports BBC News.

Glasgow City Council leader Gordon Matheson said: "It is great to see the city attracting another movie of this size so soon after our marvellous success in 2011.

"We look forward to seeing the Fast 6 shoots here and giving them a great Glasgow welcome."

Glasgow Film Office has stated that recent Hollywood productions - including Brad Pitt's World War Z - have increased the city's economy by ?20.15m.

Other movies shot in the city include Tom Hanks's Cloud Atlas, Scarlett Johansson's Under the Skin and David Tennant's The Decoy Bride.

###### those muscles?!

He was just on WWE the other week for the 1000 Ep and he looked way less in the weight dept than he even looks in this picture so don't be fooled by it, the man has really lost some tone and weight so I'll be surprised how long it takes him to get back up into this.

As for the movie- lookin forward to it as I loved them all - Drift was pretty damn good if you ask me and I'd love to see the main actor in it return in this one.

Really...these movies need to stop. It's the same thing, over and over.

They're really not though. They all involve cars yet, but it's not the same story time after time. I find them thoroughly enjoyable, if not a little daft in places.

    • From the incredibly asinine idea of disposable AI datacenter satellites launching into low Earth orbit to building out yet another unnecessary mobile network, this con-man will do ANYTHING to scam investor suckers and get his stock prices up. This stinks of panic to me. Good.
    • The "Drop" feature will also be retired 👇 https://x.com/i/status/2067838711870439583 . And here I explain a workaround to restore Edge's sidebar app list 👇 https://x.com/i/status/2065149359314829650 .
    • And they say Brits are better educated than Americans. Seriously, mate, the American Empire built the Industrial Revolution -- specifically via the transport and exploitation of oil. Not the UK. Whereas, the British Empire was built for centuries on the oceanic "spice trade" -- which "coincidentally" overlapped all of the places where Opium was grown, aka the world's only surgical grade anesthetic for ten thousand years. The British Empire was the first seagoing UPS (and even local dealer) of the Old World. For what it's worth, all mining, processing, manufacturing, and distribution are becoming robotic in the near future. And it will then make sense for everything to be manufactured (by robots) on the continent where those products will be sold. So, while no humans will be involved, manufacturing will become local again one day. PS Trump is a lying, fascist, ignorant, crooked, idiot **** who fearmongers the same racist, misogynist cowardly ###### used by charlatans, Nazis, and con-men going back tens of thousands of years. It's never been true.
