Those are great to.
There is an about $5,000 budged fanfilm (if I'm correct) that takes place right after EFNY. Escape from New Jersey.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1753790/
Haven't seen it yet. Hard to find.
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.

Let's hope Fury Road kickstarts a resurgence in the genre! Yeah, there might be some rubbish but at least we can pick and choose :D

I'm sure Fury Road and it's critical and hopefully commercial success could give a boost to The Escape From New York reboot??

Looked at the Terminator Genesys trailer just before Fury Road and the CG dominance just turns me off it, it looks plastic and shiny compared to the style of Fury Road, I will go and see it with an open mind but my expectations are low.

Has anyone seen that film with Nicholas Hoult in it; Bad Land Road To Fury?? I saw it in my local supermarket for £8.00 which is pretty cheap. 'm tempted but I don't want to buy it if its the standard of those movies made by The Asylum or the SyFy Channel. I'd certainly hang onto the receipt :D
Thing is the reviews are generally good on IMDB but I value the opinions on here :)
