Then sir are fightin' words. The first two Smokey and the Bandit films at least are national treasures.

I seem to recall reading an article that stated that Paul Walker was racing cars before he got involved in the F&F movies. And he wasn't even driving the car that he died in.
Just sayin....

That, plus what guy doesn't think he can handle his car? Most guys just can't afford the super cars actors CAN afford to crash in. Real race cars crash a lot. It's just in a better controlled environment vs. the streets.
+1 Walker was just a passenger and victim.

+1 The Bandit was/is awesome. It was also the 2nd best movie released in 1977.
We will probably see Need for Speed. My son plays the game quite a bit and I'm a big fan of Aaron Paul. I have to agree with BadMouth though that it will probably suck.

I think you guys are missing the point. These sort of films promote street racing, which shouldn't be condoned in any way. It doesn't matter that he was driving. He thought it would be alright to be in a car with someone driving irresponsibly.
Oh and btw if you think you can "handle your car" to the point to where any kind of street racing is ok, you are one of the morons we have to worry about. Cars ridiculously dangerous death machines that are unfortunately required for modern living. No matter if you are driving a Ferrari or a Ford Focus you should drive responsibly, within the speed limit and with an air of caution at all times. In a sanctioned racing environment it's a different story but even then I wouldn't recommend reckless driving.

That's true of the first 3 Fast and Furious movies, everything after that has been focused more on heists and car chases , chases dont equal races. I mean even the race in Fast Five was pretty tame, 4 cop cars on an empty street at 3am and one with the lights and siren on.
