May. 6th, 2011 02:50 amI love these movies. Love. Them.
I mean, I'm pretty easy to please. Fast cars, hot guys, a few fights, some explosions. Yeah. :)
I've seen Fast Five twice now, and I meant to make a post about it after the first time. ( Thoughts are not in any semblance of order. )
Of course, Fast Five meant the boys and I had to come home and rewatch the first four movies (we should have done it before watching Fast Five, duh, but we didn't), thus I'm craving fic. I've never actually read F&F fic, mostly because I'm worried about being disappointed. There are so many awesome ideas where the execution falls short. I could maybe go for some PWP (c'mon, yall, I'm a slasher, there is no walking away from these movies without at least flirting with that idea!) but even there, I'm not looking for Brian and Dom (or Rome) being all "Oh, baby, I love you" (unless it's a smartass comment) attitude because that wouldn't feel REAL for me, y'know? No matter what, I want fic that'll leave me with the same feeling that the movies do, so rough, gritty, angry, violent, something. Does that make sense? I did manage to find a couple epics that I really really enjoyed: Unfinished Business by Maygra and Dark Days in Light City. If yall have recs, send 'em my way?
Also, I know I'm not the only one who will look at different movies with the same actor and want crossover fic, right? So, where is the crossover fic for the Fast and Furious 'verse and Four Brothers? AU it up, make it so that teenage Brian and Rome get busted boosting cars and Rome gets sent to foster care and ends up with the Mercer family? So that time that's missing from Angel's story (when he was supposed to be in the Marines and was instead hanging in Vegas) is when he was running a job with Brian. Or Angel Mercer is Rome's half brother only they don't know it b/c Angel's dad ran out on them before he was born, and - idk, Angel's in a car accident or something and has amnesia and runs into Brian, who thinks he's Rome and things get crazy mixed up from there? (lol, there's no decent fic for Four Brothers, either. I'm so spoiled; I have a fangirl sense of entitlement when it comes to certain things, like expecting fic to magically appear from movies I like! I want a million Bobby/Jack fics for Four Brothers fandom, if anyone is so inclined, haha.) (bonus crossover point - Detroit boys vs boys who prefer imports?)
I'd also take crossover with the Fast and Furious 'verse and Leverage. What? Tell me you weren't thinking it!
