Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift




--
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus!

tonight our SG lived and watched Fast and the Furious - Tokyo Drift. What a fun night; Little Ceasar's Pizza and light-hearted movie. Too much fun, too much to write now...maybe another time.

*enjoy some key moments below; if anything, the driving scenes are worth it to see the movie.

WHAT PLOT? WHAT DIALOGUE? - CHARACTERS of Tokyo Drift:

Han: Who you choose to be around you lets you know who you are.

(jennie loves the hair, never cut it)

Han: Life's simple, you make choices and you don't look back.
...
Han: There's no 'wax on wax off' of drifting. You learn by doin it. The first drifters invented drifting out here in the mountains by feelin it. So feel it.


twinkie (bow wow; not yellow or white) and sean


Twinkie: Do you know what 'D.K.' means?
Shawn Boswell: Donkey Kong?

Shawn Boswell: Drift?
[Elevator doors open, two cars pass drifting right in front of the door]
Twinkie: Still need a dictionary?


sean and neela (best worst accents)

Han: What'd you expect? You didn't just play with fire, you soaked the matches in gasoline.

EYE CANDY - CARS of Tokyo Drift:

Han: The Red Evo's yours
Shawn Boswell: What do you mean?
Han: You're representing me now. What you think, I'm gonna let roll in a Hyundai?


350z and silvia

Twinkie: You know that famous painting? The one with the woman smiling all the time?
Shawn Boswell: The Mona Lisa?
Twinkie: Right, right, right the Mona Lisa. Well look man, this car right here is like the Mona Lisa of drift work. Hahn rebiult this bad-boy from ground up. We talkin forged pistons, bigger turbo, new rise, new crankshaft. Hey man Han's labour ain't cheap, you feel me?
Shawn Boswell: Well if I needed a 30 second lesson on how to drift...
Twinkie: All right look man there lots of ways you can do this all right. Handbraking is the easiest so the first thing I want you to do, i want you to rip that E-Brake all right. After you rip that E-Brake then I want you to Pow-Wo.
[Shawn looks puzzled about the bow wow]
Twinkie: You know what, just don't mess up Mona all right?
