Message: <blockquote data-quote="AE80TypeD" data-source="post: 667982" data-attributes="member: 722">damn nice way to end the movie! hahaha. the language is funny in terms of everyday concept, but does not do justice for the original anime's composed, calm and polite way of saying technical things. it did however, suit its purpose for the general public, bcoz not every average joe likes goofy nerd tech talk about driving techniques and cars.edison chen held his own and was OK by my account on his portrayal as Ryosuke. i cant even remember how to spell his cantonese character's name hahaha. being an initial D original fan and from that point of view, i would really hate anthony wong's version of bunta (wen tai). but this does not mean that his acting sucks. all i would say is, he made the best of what he was given/demanded; a half assed, piss poor developed character (producer/scriptwriter's fault). the producers seemed to focus too much on takumi's (tok hoi) character.the movie would have been more bearable (to me) if it hadn't overused the freeze scene transition so often. either that or my VCD copy was stuttering/pausing often without me noticing it hahahaha. i got tired of that effect halfway thru the 1st CD. i apologize to the cinematography backers if its my VCD's fault :p. the CG parts were shameless and sloppy, i'll admit to that... but understandable nonetheless. i'd forgive it more than the crappy transitions which always freezes the so called "KODAK moments" of every car and character. argh.i wont comment on the performances of any other character bcoz i was busy waiting for the racing parts. i only car about the cars hahahaha. but i couldnt ignore the ending. i say again.. the ending is hou yeaahhh hahahaha. they couldnt have chosen a better part of the original i-D story as a movie ending. it gives takumi a motive to strive in team project-D.LONELY DRIVER NEED NO GIRLS! USE THE ANGER! FOCUS IT INTO DETERMINATION TO BE THE BEST DRIVER!! (disclaimer - sentiments are mine, and mine alone. flames will be ignored.) the lighting work during the kissing in AE86 scene and the drive by at the end of the movie is worth a praise. at least they know filmaking.let me clarify that i AM an ardent (japanese) Initial D fan, and i hate the butchering. but i do not regret watching this movie, in fact im glad i watched it.. even if its just to know how bad it is. the story writers did try to squeeze in as much of the original plotlines as possible, albeit in different versions/order. i'll give them some credit for trying to bring the racing action into the live action realm, and i'd say they gave a good effort (except for the obvious CG crashes, and bunta's sloppy drifting :p)maybe the filmakers were just trying to take advantage making easy money over an iconic japanese story, maybe not. we'll just have to surrender at the end of the day bcoz they did it, and they dared to. the consequences of this movie maybe dear, but if there's something i'm against most; its the effect on toyota cars and parts. poor man's car lah, dont go tipu ppl this car fast liao... hai lat oledy kekekekekeven as a fan (not as hardcore and sot2 like acbc), my 2 sen is; hate it for what it did to Initial D, but dont hate it as it is; just another movie. and dont worry, my 2 sens aint worth much.</blockquote>
