We're six movies and damn near a thousand ounces deep into our Fast & Furious journey, and things just keep getting stupider. Amnesia! Tanks! Impossible runways! THIS. IS. FILM. AND. 40S.
An audio accompaniment to your movie viewing pleasure with your friends at Giant Bomb.
This podcast is an audio supplement, meant to be played simultaneously with the film Fast & Furious 6. We are watching this movie via the extended edition Blu-ray release. You can find the movie at any of these fine establishments.
Our commentary begins right after the Universal Logo has completely faded out. It's the 25 second mark.
ALSO, two minor housekeeping things. Early in this track, I mention fixing something in post because I thought the movie had failed to start playing at the correct spot. It did, I was dumb. Ignore that.
Secondly, we believe we have fixed the issue folks were having with glitches in podcast uploads. If you hear any issues with this file, please let us know. If not, we'll re-upload the last two episodes so you can enjoy them glitch-free. Thank you!
I detest this movie for its thumbnail picture already.
I couldn't care less about modern cars being crashed in movies, but everytime I see a classic (like the Mustang in the still) get wrecked I want to cry. These things are pieces of art to me, I love car design from years past, there is only a limited number of those old timers left, and watching them get destroyed for a stupid 5 second setpiece drives me up the walls.
Sigh. Vented. Apart from this personal pet peeve, this series has been extraordinarily fun to watch and listen to. I'd love to see more Film & 40s in the future! (Watch responsibly.)
Why did you do extended edition again after so many people told you those aren't available outside the US last time? Nice to know you don't care about us international fans.
@cynicologist: I'd be very shocked if they were destroying real classic cars when they film these action scenes. These budgets are big, but not that big.
I'm sure it's a kit car combined with some CGI to hide the fact that it's a kit car.

I think this may have been recorded before the last one was even posted. It's done.

@nickfoley: @kevin_cogneto: So they got something like a one-fits-all chassis and mold a custom-made body onto that? Some trimmings, fresh paint, looks real, mangle it? Ok, that makes me feel a lot better about this. Thanks for enlightening me!

Hate to break it to ya but movies aren't real. Sorry.
God, hearing their reaction to the sizzler at the end was just icing. I can't wait till next Friday. This was by far the best Fast and Furious 40s just based on the last 20 minutes.
2. Justin Lin has never directed a music video, only film & television. You may be confusing him with another Asian-American director, Joseph Kahn (Torque, Blank Space, Thong Song).
As someone watch all of these past the first film for the first time, having no nostalgia for F5's complete shift for the franchise, this is easily my favorite. Fast 5 is a distant second.
# So here's a special one for the Extended edition, if you happen to have ripped a copy to your computer, you can remix the movie sound with the commentary, and the movie sound will "duck" when the commentary comes up
ffmpeg -i "ripped video or audio file" -i "film40_f&f6-03-31-2017-??????????.mp3" -filter_complex "[0:a]dynaudnorm,aformat=sample_rates=48000:sample_fmts=fltp:channel_layouts=stereo,asetpts=N/SR/TB,apad,afifo[0a];[1:a]atrim=start=121.328,dynaudnorm,aformat=sample_rates=48000:sample_fmts=fltp:channel_layouts=stereo,asetpts=N/SR/TB,asplit[a],[0a]sidechaincompress=ratio=20:threshold=0.05:makeup=1,[a]amerge" -ac 2 -vn -c:a aac -shortest -movflags faststart "film40_f&f6-03-31-2017.extended.sync.ducked.m4a"
Well, I hope that all works. Please let me know if you find this useful or if you have a problem with it.
Thanks GB for Film and 40s and thanks for getting those mp3 bugs worked out.
