Maybe we can all come together and make snide remarks about this instead of each other!

Thankfully you're not talking about Rush; the Ron Howard Formula 1 movie I am so looking forward to seeing.

This doesn't look bad at all.
Maybe there is still room for a small bit of hope for modern films...

It'll be super cool to see that era of F1 cars in HD quality!

"romanticizing the bike messenger and his crashes." if it weren't for the crashes the movie wouldn't have very much action. Human conflict is more intersting if the characters are moving.

I predict there's a scene where:

He blows through a crosswalk and forces someone to hurl their coffee in the air.

He blows past some car or bus full of kids and they all go "wow!"

He pulls to a stop next to an Italian super-car. If the hot chick is a passenger, she glances at him like he were an insect and looks away. He laughs to himself 'cuz he's keepin' it real.

If the babe inside is driving, she looks him up and down, licks her lips and gives him a sly smile like he's got a chance.

In either case, the driver revs it and they race. He wins cuz traffic rulez are for losers, dude.

Dick Cheney is a vampire and can be found at night, on a fixie, in Boston. Zombies, Vampires have been so hot, ever since Buffy brought them to tv. Fwiw, the movie, 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' (1992) had Kristy Swanson, not Sarah Gellar and Kristy Swanson was super hot. She later went on to do this umm, classic:

Buffy's a product of the Vamp craze, not the progenitor (imho). I'd say Anne Rice's books really kicked it off, though the movie didn't hit till '94. But the '80s were all about the burgeoning "vamp with a soul" genre.

Put it this way; in 1990, Michael Jackson was going to make a Vampire movie in which he played a tortured Vamp who wanted to help kids. Fortunately, for our collective sanity, that never saw the light of day. Just a wee bit of dawn, which turned it to ash.

I swear George Hamilton is a vampire in real life. People wonder why he does the tan sprays etc, it's cause he's a pale vampire using make-up to hide.

A very good (vampire) book in 1975, became a tv-movie in 1979 which scared me, at age 9:

JAWS was a saltwater vampire. Andy Schleck *might* be a vampire.

I've got it!

Do you think Lost Boys meets Quicksilver would surpass the Twilight series?
