#FAST AND FURIOUS BLU RAY BOX SET MOVIE#

The underworld subculture of Los Angeles 'street racing,' where impossibly Paul Walker stars as undercover cop Brian O'Conner. People driving fast cars and blowing things up? The story is a fairlyįormulaic crime thriller, but who needs plot when you have lots of good-looking Perhaps the best piece of car porn ever put on-screen, the original 'Fast and theįurious' also remains the best of the original three-picture franchise. Makes and models of automobile crashed, smashed and blown to bits apparently

Yet we continue to flock to these movies, our appetite to see all Think that there would only be so many ways to destroy a car. Walmart, Starbucks, McDonald's, and all of those businesses used to be small start-up companies as well, and they didn't just fall out of some big conspiracy mothership in the sky.What is it about watching car crashes on screen that endlessly fascinates moviegoers? They are the auto-mechanical equivalent of slasher movies, and you'd A lot of stupid people make fun of Walmart because they think that doing so makes them look smart, but it's a well-run chain that does what it does quite efficiently and pleasantly. Because Walmart really is not so bad, and I like to throw a few dollars their way ever so often. Because it gave me a chance to chat it up with the pretty 30-something Asian lady at the Walmart electronics counter for a few minutes.Ĥ. (It has always astounded me how many folks in this forum seem willing to spend an extra $20 of gas money and an extra hour of their time in their cars to drive across town to a chain store that is selling a particular Blu-ray for three to five dollars cheaper instead of buying said Blu-ray at a closer location, but I won't harp on this, because we all have our irrational quirks here, and none of us are more normal than the rest.)ģ.

Because I was performing environmental audits in the rural north Georgia mountains today and happened to be taking my lunch hour at a Walmart location in the middle of nowhere, in an area nowhere near a Best Buy, when I spotted this Limited Edition box set, so the extra five dollars was worth saving myself the trouble of looking elsewhere. Because I seem to remember reading that the Limited Editions are all now sold out or temporarily out of stock at Best Buy and Amazon.Ģ. Why didn't you get it at Best Buy for $39.99?ġ.

#FAST AND FURIOUS BLU RAY BOX SET MOVIE#

I'll probably revisit them in sequence this weekend, and then take advantage of my $7.50 movie ticket discount. I've seen and enjoyed the first five of these movies, but I still have not seen the sixth movie. I'll be keeping the tire in the clear box when I'm not watching the movies. It's almost like a real rubber tire, and it's not annoyingly fragile like other such sets are. The tire is a lot sturdier and cooler than I expected. The cool thing is that I can wait a week or two and buy the seventh movie at a used Blu-ray store for cheap without worries about packaging condition, since I'll just be putting the disc itself into this tire set that I already own.

I went ahead and added it to my collection as the Fast & Furious 1-7 Collection, though, because that's what it is ultimately going to be in a few months once I get the seventh disc. It's also less than eight dollars per movie, so that's pretty sweet. When I actually saw it in person, I realized that this 'clunky swag-tastic Blu-ray box set' would actually take up less space on my shelf than the first seven Blu-rays would under most other circumstances. I changed my mind today when I spotted the Fast & Furious 1-6 Collection Limited Edition Tire box set for $44.96 at Walmart, and I pulled the trigger. Since it's a limited edition, there may be a more conventional set of the first seven in the future. I'd pull the trigger on the 1-7 set if I saw it for cheap, though. I'm not a fan of clunky swag-tastic Blu-ray box sets, and I always opt for practicality instead.
