JSM Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I know cygnusx1 posted on this in a thread via searching, but if you get some time watch it. Very inspirational. You have to register to watch it on Hulu, but here is the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSM Posted July 6, 2011 Author Share Posted July 6, 2011 I laughed so hard when Jeremy said, what he did about muscle cars. I thought for sure Eric would have said something, nada, just a blank stare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I got the DVD, stoopid me! Wrong Region, and PAL to boot. Oh, wait, region-free DVD player, all is well...

Neverdone Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Love the Beast is a fantastic movie. It explains what cars mean to car people better than anything I've ever seen before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogriz91 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Interesting comment Leno made about how if Bana had built the car he wouldn't have wrecked it, I think Dr Phil says something similar in the movie. It was a sweet car, my favorite Australian import is still the V-8 interceptor from Mad Max and Road Warrior though...those Falcon XB GTs are hot!

Tony D Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Yeah, the 'it's someone else's car' comment was pretty good. It may be yours, from history...but you lost your connection when you started farming it all out. It was subtle, but it was an awakening that no matter how much money you have, it doesn't mean you can hurt the ones you love. The car must be rebuilt... As was said in the movie: "you owe it to yourself, and the car..." Eric's mate, trying to buy the 80's time capsule off the other guy "Name your price!"

260DET Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) Note the Tasmanian locals, T has a reputation for keeping breeding a family affair, cruel and probably just a bit out of date, still That targa stuff makes us circuit playboys look ***, some of the incar video of the top runners is damm scarey, hitting just one tree at say 200kph means goodbye nurse, no run off areas, no armco. It happens too, mainly with Porsches for some reason Edited July 8, 2011 by 260DET Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) It's my "go to" movie when the car guys (mates) get together for sure. Edited July 9, 2011 by cygnusx1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogriz91 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 If I remember correctly Bana crashed in a spot where just previously some guys in an Alfa had crashed, I thought that was darkly humorous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
