  • "Fast & Furious 9," set for a 2021 release, is the 10th installment in a franchise known for pushing the boundaries of car chases. But there has been a lot of technological innovation leading up to this point that originated in classic films like “The French Connection” and allowed for even more realistic and dynamic chases in newer films like “Baby Driver” and “Extraction.”
    In this episode of "Movies Insider," we take a look at how the art of the car chase has evolved over eight decades in Hollywood, from the influential chase in "Bullitt" to the wild spectacles of the "Fast & Furious" franchise.

      The movie itself was not that good - everyone chasing a suitcase for some reason - but the driving of those professional racing drivers who drove the Audi S 8, the Citroen, and the Peugot in and around the Cote D'Azur, and the BMW 5-series and the Peugot in the streets of Paris, did a remarkable job. That together with brilliant sound editing and editing made that chase scene the best movie car chase ever, in my opinion.

      @@COLMECTIGAMINGANDMORE UA-cam doesn't "need" to pay anyone shit. Hell, nearly all of the people I'm subscribed to weren't monetized or aren't monetized anymore. They don't even give direct reasons why they take it away. It seems to me that once a creator makes ad revenue past a certain threshold, UA-cam comes in and 'demonizes' the channel effectively stealing all the income.
      Just recently, in the last few months; they updated their policy allowing them to put ads on channels that weren't even monetized to begin with, as well as channels that have had their monetization taken away. UA-cam takes all the money those ads make, creators don't see a cent of it. This raises the question "Is this the channel owner monetizing the channel or is it UA-cam?"
      Don't ruin your viewing experience with ads because you don't want to 'hurt the creators' by 'taking their money' when in reality, the little money they'd get has likely already been taken away.
      It's not shameful or immoral to use Adblock. Don't let anyone tell you different.

I'm talking about the new innovations in CGI though, it's amazing how they can now replace any car they want without having to retrofit it, using computer imagery. So using your example, they don't have to change the Pontiac during principal photography anymore, they could just leave it out for later to be replaced with whatever they want, be it a Testarossa or let's say, if they wanted to, a Countach

    5:27 I’d like to point out that the movie “Seabiscuit” was NOT where the rig was invented it was in fact invented while making “The Fast and the Furious” 2 years before that in 2001 where they mounted the body of the Eclipse on the back of the trailer so Paul Walker could sit in it whilst the “MicRig” was moving

    Ahhh: the good old ARRI 35 for shooting without sound! Built in the Munich quarter where I live: Schwabing. Thanks for interesting and well illustrated information. Regarding FRENCH CONNECTION: they had Hackman drive with a flashing police light on his car roof. (I read somewhere)

      Ah this. They had to rebuild the car with the drivetrain on the back, meaning the actor driver is actually facing backward.

      Same here, I feel like movies have gone down in quality in recent years. Now it's just action, cgi and no plot. Back then, I felt that the movies had some kind of depth and an interesting story to tell. That being said there are still occasional exceptions. The Gentleman for example was a really good one.
