Fast Cars Are A Hazzard for Furious Dukes - TWB5

There's driving fast and driving with the sense that you cant do everything you see on television and in the movies. Most of those stunts are very dangerous and must not be performed by the average idiot with a nitric oxide tank installed in his '96 Honda CRX. Those disclaimers that state "Do Not Try This At Home" are not to be ignored. Heed the warnings. You are not Steve Mcqueen! Even he needed a stunt double to perform some of the wildest car chases ever to grace the silver screen. Google movies with awesome car chase scenes and BAM! you'll see Bullit among them. 0 0 1 229 1308 Wee Lil Donkeys 10 3 1534 14.0 Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Cambria","serif"; mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;} Back in those days, directors didn't have fancy computers and digital trickery; they had cars. Cars, a camera, and people who could drive those cars at extreme speeds. Both men and women skilled at the wheel with backbones they were more than willing to break for the perfect shot. Nowadays to flip a car means to film the actor reactions in front of a green screen then send the footage to an artist to make the car look real. Fast and Furious (although a great franchise) utilizes the CG car chases to an extreme degree. Most of the car chase scenes today are produced with computer graphics, and they are awesome to watch but not too impressive when you learn of their visual trickery on the DVD commentary.  However, if you truly enjoy a great car chase scene and have yet to watch movies such as White Lightning, Smokey, and the Bandit, and even television programs such as The Dukes of Hazzard then we recommend you sit down, buckle up, join us for a discussion about going fast but staying real.    We're always open for suggestions and/or a favorable comment @talkingburritos on your favorite social app. But Machete don't tweet.
