    Fast Five (Lap 15)
    Feb 4 2025
    We're joined by Brittany Friesner (@midwesttisbest) to talk about Fast Five and how she's bringing Fast & Furious to IU Cinema! She shares her rankings with a couple of unusual placements -- and a nice addition -- before recommending that we watch one of Joey's favorite movies. We talk about how good Dom is at geometry, whether this version of Hobbs has sex, and Brian's final himbo moment. We run into more "baby math" issues, the family as terrorists, and a mini IMDb mystery. We ask: what's more of a bummer: a lack of sexiness or a lack of danger? Has Dom been in a coma since the end of the fourth movie? Could Fast & Furious crossover with Jurassic World? Could The Rock become President? Should we have been doing the "biggest oops of the movie" all lap long? Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/2fast2forever.

    babe wake up, Vin Diesel just posted | Life in the Fast Lane #40
    Jan 28 2025
    It's time for another installment of Life in the Fast Lane, and babe wake up, Vin Diesel just posted. We kick things off with the sixth minute of Tokyo Drift, which gets some car racing action! (And also creepy sexualization.) We try to make sense of Andy Tudor's intriguing posts on X, Vin's sly "Dwayne" at the Golden Globes, and the mystery behind some recent "Fast and Furious footage." We Run the Vin to find many posts, including one that shows how Vin is giving Los Angeles what it needs the most right now: Fast & Furious. We discuss Gen Z stars in the Fastiverse, the best "carty" in the franchise, and Jerry's interesting idea about Rob Cohen as Pizza Boy. Joe recaps his trip to LA and visiting Cosm, while Joey talks about CES 2025 and Grand Theft Hamlet. Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/2fast2forever.

  • Annapolis (2006)

    Annapolis (2006)
    Jan 21 2025
    It turns out that Annapolis, directed by Justin Lin, is basically the same movie as The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. It's perfect for the Oops! lap. We talk about how it feels like every movie you've ever seen, Tyrese... with hair?, and how Brian Goodman essentially plays Sean's Dad in this movie (but also the exact opposite?). We break down the movie's racism (toward all people), Jordana Brewster as an "escort," and Snickers sandwiches. We try to determine how old James Franco's character is supposed to be -- and whether or not he could have played Sean in Tokyo Drift. Joe airs a scheduling grievance with Joey, wonders how much naval prep Tyrese and Franco did for this movie, and shares the surprising plot twist that delighted him. We try to parse the trailer and why it doesn't seem to reflect the film we watched. Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/2fast2forever.

    An Hour and a Half of BS? | Life in the Fast Lane #39
    Jan 14 2025
    We're back with "An Hour and a Half of BS?" on this all-new Life in the Fast Lane. In the Tokyo Drift Minute, we get the debut of baseball (and, perhaps, a legendary musician). We find Vin grooving to Christmas music, we revisit the Interquel question, and we raise the BDWHAPFY stakes (in a confusing way). We run through boring goofs from Fast & Furious (but, in the process, we learn about helicopters), we bring back an old game, and we look ahead to likely Oscar Best Picture nominees.

    Fast & Furious (Lap 15)
    Jan 7 2025
    We're headed back to Mexico for the fifteenth time as we're joined by Matthew Anderson to talk about Fast & Furious! After learning about Matthew's history with the franchise, his favorite character, and his franchise power rankings, we discuss if Fast & Furious is the most fitting "oops!" movie in the franchise. Joe uncovers what Dom Toretto and Kendrick Lamar have in common. We wonder if Dwight (Mueller) is REALLY that young. At long last, we make a plea: won't someone think of the drug dealers?

    Up Here in Bear Country with All His New York Thespians | Life in the Fast Lane #38
    Dec 31 2024
    It's time for another Life in the Fast Lane, and we're coming to you live from Up Here in Bear Country with All His New York Thespians. After sharing our tips and tricks for New Year's Eve TV watching, we dive into Tokyo Drift's fourth minute to get our first dialogue of the movie and learn about Nikki Griffin's (Cindy) career. We talk about The Fast and the Furious: Continental Drift, Larenz Tate in Fast 11 (?), and the sales numbers for our George Pickens t-shirt. We open the mailbag to get some new rankings and possibly learn why Dom's son is called "Little B" and not "Brian" as well as potential confirmation on the meaning of "food all over the place."

  • Red One (2024)

    Red One (2024)
    Dec 24 2024
    Merry Christmas! Our holiday movie this year is Red One, starring The Rock and written by Chris Morgan. Does it feel Fast & Furious? We debate. Also, we know it's ironic to whine about what's essentially a F&F movie, but... we wonder if they could have leaned more into the Christmas creativity, whether or not we should be rooting against Kiernan Shipka's Thanos-esque goals, and why (seriously, why?) Krampus runs a fight club. We talk about impressive and majestic reindeer, the complicated (and urine-soaked) production schedule of this movie, and being a grunt who gets stuck with "cookie baking duty." We ask: Why Ant-Man technology? What Naughty List tier is Joe? Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/2fast2forever. Show your support at the 2 Fast 2 Forever shop!

  • Thrashin' (1986)

    Thrashin' (1986)
    Dec 17 2024
    Mark Hofmeyer joins us to help us clean up another loose end by covering one of our overlooked '80s action sports movies: Thrashin'! After Mark rails against the city of Jacksonville, we try to find things of interest in the black hole of information that is the history of this movie. Joe talks about earrings that are important to him, Mark talks about the impracticality of the in-movie joust game, and Joey wonders if David Lynch loves Thrashin'. We talk about how there isn't enough uphill chasing in movies, who from the F&F would we want to see in an air instrument band, and how to sneak alcohol into clubs. Mark takes care of business in the Letterboxd game. Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/2fast2forever. Show your support at the 2 Fast 2 Forever shop!
