from Rotten Rewind · host rotten rewind
If "2 Fast 2 Furious" was a disappointing, but still financially successful sequel, "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift" was the death rattle of a franchise dying young. Or so that's what so many thought when Justin Lin's high school/fish out of water spin on the series was released in 2006. In what might be the most 2006 movie ever made, Lin transported audiences to Tokyo and subbed out the angelic crazy ass white boy Brian O'Conner for a troubled high school student with a receding hairline and five o'clock shadow. Fifteen years later and "Tokyo Drift" has developed the most sizeable cult following of the franchise and is now seen as the film responsible for not only introducing Lin to the Fast Family, but reinvigorating the entire franchise altogether through a series of happy accidents. We're once again joined by Fast Superfan Logan Kenny to wax nostalgic for the Drift King and the unfortunately named Bow Wow character, Twink. "Tokyo Drift" is streaming now on Peacock and Peacock Premium.
