The next one is finally almost here.




Edit: Dammit. Stupid Dorna. Why does it matter if I embed the damn video?

I agree. Getting an inside view of the racing history is brilliant. Great footage is worth it alone.

Why would you dislike that?

That comes over as visually very strong ieism mate.
I'm sure you didn't intend it as so.
But as F1 says what's not to like?
I can't wait.
I've watched Faster, dunno, say 10 times..

Perhaps... The pic was a little bigger than I had imagined, but I wasn't a fan of "Faster" and looking at the trailer i'm not feeling this one either. It's a matter of taste, i suppose don't like the style of the movie. It has racing in it, so I imagine most here will love it though. Sorry.

I am really looking forward to this one:


(how do I embed a video here?)

That trailer looks remarkably similar to the one for Fastest.



I edited you post to embed the video. If you hit "edit" you'll see what I did and how it works.

I hadn't even heard of this until now. Now I'm looking forward to it as well. Don't think it will come to our local cinema but not sure when it will come out on DVD.

Gotta love Guy Martin.

:D I see your point, it's just an opinion Rats. Mad Max and the Book of Eli are also remarkably similar, but I still didn't like the latter. ;)

Thanks for the embed, I get it now...

No, your opinion is wrong and you must admit it :x


:lol:



And The Book of Eli had some gaping wholes that made an otherwise decent movie ignorable.

Yeah and that's because the Book of Eli had "type cast actor number 1" in it. I had no idea the same guy could be a character in all those films....

All trailers look remarkably similar. Films with motorbikes in them will have trailers with motorbikes in them though, so there is a small identifiable difference there. I suppose it's what sets us apart. All trailers require a deep voiceover. It's mandatory.

I got really excited when I saw the story on the corporate site, and then I noticed the list of countries where it will be in theatrical release... :roll:

When will the Region 1 DVD come out?

IOMTT3D is also showing no plans to release in the US despite every comment on their FB page is someone asking when it will come here.

Where is said list?

I'm just going to assume that Houston, Texas will have 10-20 theaters showing this right... :roll:

Ah, I just presumed it was in the thread somewhere, already:

There is enough of a market here in the SF Bay Area that the production team actually came out for the initial screening. However, it was in a single screen theater that specializes in small films. Still, I expect it to be in theaters somewhere here but the rest of the US will likely have to wait for DVD.

Fastest - the movie

Postby carty on Tue Sep 27, 2011 9:46 am

Hi all,

I heard about this new film by Mark Neale a while ago and then kind of forgot about it. I happened to look on the MotoGP website yesterday and saw the advert for it and realised it is now out. However, it is only getting limited screenings. It was on on Sunday in the UK and it seems the second and last showing in the UK is tonight (27/09/11).

I have now booked to go this evening, the schedule for where it is being shown can be found through the MotoGP website, or hopefully via the link below.

http://www.fastestthemovie.com/index-intl.html

This is the follow on from Mark Neale's earlier, excellent films and should definitely be worth a watch for everyone, from the most casual (my wife) to the more discerning fans (you guys) of the sport. :D

Hope you get to see it, the advertising has been fairly inconspicuous to say the least.

Cheers,
Matt

Showing in Aberdeen (Cineworld - Union Square) at 8:45 tonight... one off showing so fingers crossed I can make it. Might have to go on my own :( How sad of me!

Edit: Ticket booked... can't wait to see it. The other 2 films before it were great, so should be good... and I can confirm for the first time in my life I've resorted to going to the cinema alone.

I used to go to the cinema alone quite regularly- didn't really see the problem as you can't talk to anyone anyway! :) I'm not going alone tonight though- the Mrs will be accompanying me, she's hoping that Ewan Mcgregor doesn't have 'that silly voice' he's putting on on the trailer and that he talks normally or it will 'do (her) head in' !

I reckon it will be very empty as it is quite niche and poorly advertised but it will be interesting to see :)

Cheers,
Matt

My Mrs was going to come too, but she's feeling some ill effects from being 8 months preggers :(
