mr0072003 10-18-2002 02:41 AM

look at the shadow....

MTL 10-18-2002 03:12 AM

umm..i dun see nothing wrong with the shadows...:confused:
i just notice that the antenna is semi transparent and has a slight yellow outer glow to it...or either the cut out/masking was not done well enough

MicroRCracer 10-18-2002 03:25 AM

my pictures are authentically taken and not fake..

EcLiPSe 2.0 10-18-2002 08:54 AM

Why the hell are the 2 cars from F&F in ur parking lot? where do u live?/

ICH_BIN_GUT! 10-18-2002 10:22 AM

Is it like the filming of FATF2?
Becasue theyre doing it rite now and alll those trailers maybe for the actors.:D

go_zz_go 10-18-2002 10:31 AM

i am not buying it yet, lets see a pic of the car on the hood or any thing clooser were the images will over lap,i am sorry but with your hand there it looks more fake than before,the light differences between the hand and the background is to different

mjrusso45 10-18-2002 10:54 AM

Looks pretty real. I had my co-worker who is a Photoshop pro take a look, and he says its legit. The haze around the antenna is more likely a contrast problem with the camera.

binaryterror 10-18-2002 11:09 AM

I have never heard of "Photoshop pro"...i have heard of PhotoShop and Adobe (maker) claims to make no "pro" edition.
I have heard of PaintShop Pro, but this is very weak in the powers of Photo editing.

And yes i do think this MAY be real, but until i see some damning proof...ie him standing in front of the vehicle holding the ZZ would be a good way to differentiate.

mjrusso45 10-18-2002 11:12 AM

Silly,

I said he is a Photosho pro. That means that he works with Photoshop as part of his living. As A Professional.

He designs our web pages and does all of our artwork for the company.

Crisp_Rapper 10-18-2002 11:13 AM

personally i don't care whether he was really 'there'.... those little cars are damn cool! :D

go_zz_go 10-18-2002 11:20 AM

dont get me wrong they look good but i saw some pics similar to these on one of the ff sites with the cars in a lot simmilar but not exactly the same i dont knw i used my photo shop and zoomed in the edges look a little funny



and the orange suppra (i belive that is right which ever is orange) is not in the ff2 movie also if it is at the filming wouldnt you want to show off pics of the new cars

Legion 10-18-2002 12:13 PM

I've used Photoshop a lot and while I couldn't say 100% that these are not faked there is nothing I can see that says they are.

EcLiPSe 2.0 10-18-2002 07:00 PM

lol, those arent the real F&F cars duh

im a fanboy and i can easily tell that the eclipse in the F&F didnt have those logos on them like NOPI.

MicroRCracer 10-18-2002 07:37 PM

Look Guys..For the thousandth time, they are real pics...

These pictures were taken a few days ago at Universal's Prop parking lot where I work..If they were fake i would say so..Why would I lie? C'mon guys..Anyways these F&F cars are the doubles that they use for different stunts...I believe each F&F car has about 3 to 5 doubles for various stunts..These cars were from the F&F first one and not for the 2nd one coming out next summer... However, the '92 White Supra Turbo most likely will be in F&F part 2 though and will be dressed with a new tail, rims, and Body Decal set...

Go0ty 10-18-2002 07:41 PM

pointless question but im annoyed i dont know the answer =p who used the red rx7 in the FF movie? vin deisel's character?

MicroRCracer 10-18-2002 07:46 PM

Vin Diesel used the Red Veilside RX-7 and Paul Walker used the green Eclipse before it blew up in the movie...

By the way, Thanks for backin' me MJRusso..

binaryterror 10-18-2002 08:20 PM

Vin Diesel's character's name was Dom.

I don't remember either car have numbers or Nopi stickers, but whatever i guess i need to watch it again

*hits play on the DVD player*

jaubery 10-18-2002 10:30 PM

Fake or not the pics are too cool! Good job. I think there's a little bit of envy going around here.

Oh by the way, conspiracy theorists say we did not land on the moon. All those photos were faked?!

binaryterror 10-18-2002 11:28 PM

haha funny you mention the lunar conspiracy...I'm still thinking we never really landed on the moon.

Actually i think these pics are more real than the lunar conspiracy!

tinyrc 10-21-2002 10:28 PM

Great pics MicroRCracer! What is that in the first pic, just before the white pickup?! Is it the Back to the Future Delorean?!

Deadite 10-21-2002 10:44 PM

OMG...tiny you are right there is the Delorean...I could see the little fins on the back. That's pretty "heavy".

john 10-21-2002 10:44 PM

Cool pics! I am pretty sure they are real too. Actually, I'd bet on it.

I'm sure we all agree that the cars are real photos, and the background is real too. Right? So what kind of fool would take a picture of the ground, 50 feet of pavement, and the car way at the top? No one would do that. And if they did, I doubt they'd do it twice, once on each car.

So, I believe completely that the ZZ was on the ground and the photographer intentionally got a pic of the ZZ, 50 feet of pavement, and the FnF cars.

They are cool pics. I've never seen the movie, and I think it's neat to see the FnF cars next to the ZZs. Thanks for sharing the snaps!

go_zz_go 10-21-2002 10:52 PM

just so you all know i did bow down good pics cool memories

MicroRCracer 10-22-2002 02:49 AM

Good eye TinyRC!!! That is correct!! That is the Back To The Future Delorean which is also parked there.. For those in doubt about me.. Does it make sense where I'm at now?? F&F and Back 2 The Future are both Universal made movies which mean I am at the parking lot with prop cars at Universal..

latency 10-22-2002 01:23 PM

HEY!!
 
Is that the golf cart from Happy Gilmore in the background?? :D :D

j/k, cool pics!!

NorCalCoug 10-22-2002 06:27 PM

Each of the main cars in FnF and FnF2 had many copies made for stunts, shows, etc. As far as the 'Lunar conspiracy', read these two links. :)

link 1
link 2

EcLiPSe 2.0 10-22-2002 06:47 PM

whoa, nice links, i actually believed FOX!!!:o :mad:

blacksabbath070 10-22-2002 06:58 PM

OMg
 
why are all of you getting worked up over the F&F cars i mean do you really believe that they spent even more money on those car's engines jstu for a movie which was full of lots of "eye candy"? i mean you seriously dont think they did modify them do you? can some one answer this question for me

MicroRCracer 10-22-2002 08:51 PM

actually, for every f&f car , there's atleast one thats crazily modified with the works which really does have NOS and all of the mods...I know, cuz ive seen the fullest mods in each car..

rmyc 10-23-2002 10:47 PM

thanks for the compliments guys!! here's a pic of my favorite F&F Supra ZipZap. I lowered the front end, did the PCB mod, features 3.0 engine from Z-cars , 6 hole front suspension top plate, and am using a 1/3 AAA nimh 120mah rather than the 100mah.
