It looks like the Goat still has the major role though....I kind of dug the flip-down front fenders that exposed the weaponry. Looks like the Goat is SOM in this one too.
Xzibit is in it....why didn't they make him the main character? That would have been cool! :)

The first movie wasn't that great and destroying a C5 'vert just for entertainment purposes was so not cool. I doubt the sequel will be any better.

You know, I like poor pot action movies, but I'm really starting to HATE rob cohen.
That punk destroyed...
F&F: 69 Charger
XXX: A few GTO's (I read n HPP that they left bunch of GTO's over there)
Last Ride: Judge GTO
This guy is the leader in destroying classic muscle cars campaign.
This is really starting to piss me off

Do you honestly believe that they destroy real classics and not mock-ups made to look like them? That Charger in F&F didn't even have a real blower on it.

some muscle??? oh because you're such a big guy :jest:

Yeah I just saw the trailer while at the theatre to see Blade. From what I understand, they asked Vin to do the sequel and he turned them down. This movie looks lik eit is going to blow. I don't have much faith in Ice Cube after Anaconda and Ghosts of Mars.

He was in that movie too?! No wonder it sucked so bad. I saw the previews for it when I saw Spider-man 2 and everyone thought it was so gay. :jest:

I agree, Ice Cube is not that great of an actor. I think his best roll was in Boys in the hood. And that was about it.
As for Vin, He did do the Sequel to Pitch Black....Which was ok. Could have been better.
I think in the trailer the only other car I saw was a silver something that was about 1 sec worth of film of it. It looked good though. But The GTo does look to still be the leading car in this roll....

i see Xzibit saying some gay line like from pimp my ride or some shit. like when they show thr GTO with those ugly fuckin rims, i see hime saying "your ride is now pimped" or some stupid shit. they could have easily called the movie another name and still come out with a second XXX. but this is just gay i hate it when the main character from the first movie is not involved in sequels they should add that to movie contracts if a movie is going to have sequels state in the contract that they must be in the other films if not find someone else. liek Batman i hated all those different actors being him. look at superman reeves was him for every film basically that is what i liek to see same actor=same character not character=5 differnt actors. James Bond is an exception if anybody was wondering.

I totally agree with ya. James Bond is indeed an exception, because it is a very long running franchise which, while not appealing to everyone, will hopefully continue to run for a very long time. I wish Adrian Paul could be the next JB btw, since he not only has the accent, but good previous training in various martial arts.
But like you were saying, it really sucks when the original actor won't star in the sequels. Not a big Vin Diesel fan, but he should be in the sequels of the XXX movie.

Well, thanks for posting the trailer this is one movie I'm NOT going to see. The first XXX was stupid and unbelievable but at least VD was huge and you could see him as a badass, Ice Cube come on hes just a short fat black guy totally unbelievble. On top of that he's an idiot. Xzibit is a dumb ass to. I think there should be some IQ requirement like over 100 to be in the movies.

What makes Vin such a great actor, Personal I like all of Ice Cubes Movies

Ice cube is not a action type hero. he just doesnt fit the part. but then have U guys seen the previews for the comedy that Vin is doing hahahaha damn that gonna bomb HARD. Just like this new XXX movie is.
UNFAIR

Vin Diesel is a HORRIBLE actor. he's the new Keanu Reeves, they have the same damned inflection & voice in EVERY movie they do.
this next 'XXX' movie is going to break new ground for terrible though.
i bet Ice Cube finds a way to incorporate "OH HELL NAW." into the script somewhere, he manages to put it in every movie he's done so far. :)
