You guys heard about this new ricer movie? I saw it on TV and they were drag racing all these riced up Honda's and RX-7's, tacked on with fiberglass bodykits. Looks like it's a low budget flick...

 

i think that someone said there is a 4th or 5th gen max in the movie. i would probably go and see the movie if that is true, heck, i'll probably go and watch it anyways, i watched titanic

 

I can't wait to see it myself...it's not everyday that you see Japanese imports on the big screen. Don't know if I can get the wife to go though; SoCal folks anyone?

 

Ricer Movie? Not quite. Turbos, superchargers, NOS, etc. Last time I checked Supras and RX-7s wern't considered rice. Rice is lots of tacky $hit with no ***** to back it up. This movie is going to be so hot. Street racing forever!!!!

Premise: This movie is about street youth gangs in Los Angeles that adapt sports cars into weapons that they race illegally. Two different subplots have been revealed by different sources. One is that there is a Romeo and Juliet story about lovers from different gangs (Cinescape), and the other is that police detectives go undercover to investigate a possible highjacking ring (IMDb). A firmer summary of the premise should be announced soon. Rodriguez plays a gang member; if an anonymous source is correct, Rodriguez may be the "Juliet" of the romantic angle; with her brother being the leader of one of the racing gangs, and her new boyfriend (Diesel) being one of the undercover cops.

 

I can't WAIT for this one to come out. This is gonna be SUCH a KICK A$$ flick! I just KNOW street racing is gonna TOTALLY blow up around my area once this thing comes out!

 

I heard there was a nice Maxima at a local NOPI store in Atlanta, supposedly used in the movie. I believe it was stated it was a 4th Gen. That's just what I heard. I never got a chance to go by and see the car personally. I didn't notice the car in the movie website...

Check over in the Southeast forum for more details.

 

am i going to have to make everyone jealous?

i went to this import show awhile ago and signed up for this contest and won...i didn't win a ton of stuff, but i won 4 free tickets to a sneak preview of the fast and the furious on may 30th (almost a month before it is supposed to come out)...i am going to see this movie so many times...i love the scene in the trailer where this civic is on the highway and it changes lanes by going underneith a semi truck

4 tickets...who wants to start the bidding?

 

35 dollars, do I hear 35 dollars?


68Stang: "35 dollars here"

Let the bidding begin!

 

This movie is going to be the $hit. I have been following it for the past year, before it was called "The Fast and The Furious" it was going to be called "REDLINE". I heard there is going to be a 5th gen max in it too. I can't wait to see it.

 

it looks very good, i want to watch...will be out in summer

I think the preview tickets should be reserved for your good Maxima buddies that showed up for the last Arizona Maxima Meet!

 

I heard this Blue electric or lagoon , whatever u wanna call this color, 4th gen maxima will be in this movie???
Also, I don't remmember which web site I saw it at, but I saw this Supra from Japan, that was also in this movie, they wanted $135k for it, it was one of a kind. I can't wait to see these cars.

 

Here is 2 links to pics of the 4th gen max thats in the movie http://www.autobuzz.com/gallery/phot...224&date1=2000
AND http://www.autobuzz.com/gallery/phot...224&date1=2000

And I think this is the supra http://www.autobuzz.com/gallery/phot...224&date1=2000

 

This movie definatly does not look like a low-budget flick. I can't wait to see it.

 

have any of you seen driven??? that's a real good movie even if your not into that kind of racing. there are some sweet scenes in that one, like when they take the cars out in the streets. they go under semi-'s in there too.

 

Yo I just want to go to see that chick go under that truck with that civic.

 

the 4th gen max is supercharged and is an automatic it was at the atlanta car show it is sweet but an automatic..... i cant wait they have cops on reserve b/c alot of peeps r going to be hyped up about racing!!!!! thats y im not driving that night!!

 

Yo, Maximawanabee....be leary of of them Supra's and RX-7s.
If your car can hustle the 1/4 in low 10's, and remain streetable, call'em anything you want...peace.

 

It will be so many people trying to race leaving the movie.
Its going to start something for sure.
