Why does my husband want to see Fast & Furious 4?
He not only wants to watch it, but he thinks we need to own it on Blu-ray! I am picky about what blu-ray movies we buy because they are a little more pricey than regular dvds. I know that if we were to get this movie, it would be best on blu-ray because of special effects and crap. But really? Fast and Furious 4? Was it good enough the first time around to have 3 more made? x(

1. Hot cars, hot chicks. I can't blame him.
One of those cars being the almighty Buick Grand National.

The first one was barely watchable unless you really like cars. I couldn't bring myself to watch the next two.

3. He just told me he would love to build a car.
He is actually kinda pumped that there is a fourth one. Wow! How tastes can vary. Not my kind fick. Nor would I care to design and build a car.

5. It's a lot of fun, if you have deep enough pockets.
I built one ('80 Corvette) and "mildly" modified another ('87 Grand National).

There's something intoxicating about horsepower and torque.

7. Well his dad is a mechanic so I guess it is in the genes.
I would rather draw or design a purse or shoe.

8. Because he appreciates the amazing beauty of cars crashing into other cars.
He has to check out "Death Race."

12. He has a man crush on Vin Diesel?
After seeing the first one I'd rather have my balls smashed flat by a large wooden mallet and then stapled to the floor with a croquet hoop than watch the rest.

But that's just me. :)

13. He has a car crush. He doesn't really care for Vin. Doesn't hate
on him, but doesn't care for him nonetheless.
