Movie review.

Do you love fast cars? Do you love men? Do you love daring men geniuses who love fast cars?

If you do then Ford vs Ferrari is pure porn.

I give this 5 hobbits . I'll be watching it again.

😂 Seagoon, this is such a good ad.

Watching it, I shall be.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 points 7 months ago

I bought this on blu ray for the man and he's been nagging me to watch it with him. Thanks for the review. I'll schedule it in.

confession

I used to love speeding in my little bmw on winding mountain roads. Husband never knew.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 5 points 7 months ago

Hahaha.

Confession

I drive like a grandma in my Corolla. Husband knows because he tells me all the time. What he doesn't know is I do it deliberately when he's in my car.

What if I prefer my cars more like chitty chitty bang bang?

Flying?

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 4 points 7 months ago

Rat rod, but I’ll take flying.

I watched this on the treadmill. There's something about racing scenes that really makes me run faster. Like a subconscious/empathetic connection to the character on the screen.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 7 months ago

The racing scenes are really quite thrilling and every now and then they slip in some real footage from the real life events they are portraying. I remember in the 60s and 70s race car drivers were household names, rock stars
