The year is 2006... and also sometime between 2017 and 2021—women are objects, everyone in Japan speaks English and Tim and Guy are over the moon to have watched Tokyo Drift! A straightforward car movie that represents a welcome departure from the self serious experience of Fast Four and (as Guy seems to think) some sort of skeleton key to understanding the entire Fast and the Furious franchise. Monty is so keen he has paid for the movie twice, while Tim declares the age of video piracy is upon us once again. The boys discuss the nominal lead—Lucas Black as Sean —before diving into just how well Sung Kang (Han) did on debut, to have the entire Fast and the Furious franchise bend itself in knots to feature him in every subsequent movie.

Join us for the season finale live show on Dec 15, livestreaming at TWIOAT.substack.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
