VROOM VROOM! Need For Speed and FAST-7 Updates!
In case you're getting tired of superhero movies, 2014 has a pair of car movies to get your adrenaline going. We can't promise they'll make you want to do donuts in the parking lot, but the movies do look promising.Since the "Ozymandias" episode of Breaking Bad is still fresh in our minds (btw, holy shit!), let's start with NEED FOR SPEED! (Amphetamine pun intended)
Here are two official images that have just been released by Dreamworks:
Worried that it sounds like a Fast&Furious movie rip? The two-time Emmy award winning actor says, "'It's really a throwback to the Steve McQueen era of car movies. I think people are going to be pleasantly surprised.''
Need for Speed marks an exciting return to the great car culture films of the 1960s and ’70s, tapping into what makes the American myth of the open road so appealing. The story chronicles a near-impossible cross-country journey for our heroes—one that begins as a mission for revenge, but proves to be one of redemption.
Oh and THAT other car movie franchise?
