Fast Eight NoVa Viewing
#1
Jake and I were scheming the other day - who's up for another Nova aluMMni meet, this time to see Fast 8 next week? Let's pick an evening, grab some food/drinks and head to a theater that would be central-ish to everyone (I'm thinking AMC Tysons could be doable?)

The only one I didn't see in theaters thus far is Tokyo Drift, after the crushing disappointment of F&F2. I strayed from the path and have been paying a penance ever since, and vow to never miss another again.

You're missing out. 6 and 7 were hilariously awesome.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

This one looks terrible. Jess and I go to to the movies about once a year so we saved some tickets we got as a gift and then the trailer looked truly awful. That said I have heard better then "why did I waste my time watching" so I might be up for it.

I've seen it so I won't give any spoilers. That said it was not as good as 6 or 7, but it was entertaining. Good amounts of comedy from The Rock and Tyrese and even Jason Statham. Great hand to hand combat scenes and cool cars. Yes it is entirely outlandish but that is the point.

Get dinner after the movie so you can talk about it. Also y'all get off your high horse. It's a cheesey action movie. Have some fun with your friends.

Wednesday is better for me now - Worldgate is kinda sucktastic to get to after work. Could we do Tysons?

My vote would be Tysons on Wednesday at 6:15 - the 5:25 showing is probably pushing it.
