Tonn Slingdog Remembers the Franchises, Part Two: The Fast and The Furious
Here’s what I remember about these five pictures:
THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS: I remember a lot of drag racing down large thoroughfares and not really understanding how they didn’t get caught by the police or why there were never any pedestrians anywhere.

Podcast #6 – Summer Movies & Blockbusters
It’s our sixth podcast! We’ve done this six times! With summer fast approaching, this episode is devoted to Big Summer Event Blockbuster Movies!
