Was The "Fast And The Furious" Really A HOOD MOVIE? 

Whatever movie Hector pops up in, it's an instant hood flick.

It's so crazy that in the early 2000's there was a legitimate effort to make the world think Vin Diesel the coolest guy in the world

I dont want his pork chop. I want his 10 second car.

Tokyo drift is the only true racing movie from fast and furious. Deserved to have a sequel with same cast

I don’t know if it counts, but I asked my dad if he knows of any Mexican hood films he’s loved and he told me “the mask of zorro.”

I live my life one Old Barrio video at a time.

bro you can’t forget that technically paul walker or the torettos grew up in the mexican hood in these movies apparently, and in 2 fast 2 furious i think paul walker actually says “forget about it cuh”

I never picked up on the line where Toretto says he slept with Johnny Tran's sister, but clearly it's foreshadowing a future sequel where that sister comes back to avenge her brother, and just happens to be a super spy with a legion of high-tech mercenaries at her disposal.

The “sheet” or plate in between the wheels on the trailer is for aerodynamics. Those sheets help increase aerodynamics and add a noticeable amount of overall mpg’s for a big rig truck. If a range for a truck would be 450 miles without it, they may see 475 miles when those aero bits are added for example.

“Any false claims will be met with legal action” Bro not playin anymore 😂

It's a hood racing movie. Street racing. Growing up broke but wanting more. It was cool. Still has cringe lines but it's too damn nostalgic for me. I've watched it all my life since it released. The original obviously. I went to the movie theater to see 2 and 3 as well. After that I still went but almost because I felt I had to. Didn't go to see 7 in the theater. Waited for it online. Haven't seen anything after. And fuck that spin off that caused drama between Vin and Dwayne. I still wish someone would make a proper street racing movie. Imagine a big budget for a movie in Japan like Tokyo Drift or one in the US and even UK. But keep it in the streets. Definitely gotta be hood shit. Crime. Not just rich white kids racing Daddy's car.

The big sheet under the trailers of tractor trailers is for aerodynamics. It stops the air from pushing under the truck and creating resistance. Those skirts instead force the air to flow down the truck and off of the back of the truck.

I dunno about "changing the definition of cool", I tried wearing giant boots with flames painted on them and a fish net tank top to school after this movie came out, and the OPPOSITE of what I imagined was going to happen, happened.

Another good video as usual. I can’t believe how petty these studios are being. You’re right about them needing to stop after Fast 5. Thanks for working on “La Bamba” and “Stand and Deliver” I can’t wait!

Fun fact I worked on production on ff1 and there was a deleted scene where dom gave Brian that chon chon

You should review Crank (2006) it's got Hector, LA area, and gang stuff.

I think The Big Lebowski can qualify for a hood film.

It would be funny to see how the Jamaican hood classic " Shottas " holds up on the barrio meter

1:59 Those sheets are meant for airflow and increase the efficiency of trucks. As the newer rigs became more aerodynamic, so does the boxy trailers. Those sheets were meant to help with the airflow and make the truck use less fuel.

Haha the Hectorverse I'm dying

Great work as always, man Your editing is getting better and better with each video. Amazing job, my dude.

Everbody in the hood loves fast and the furious bruh, defo certified hood classic

Finally someone acknowledges the Hector-verse. 😅😅😅

Fast and the Furious was filmed in Echo Park, i remember walking to school and seeing them flim a couple scenes

You deserve all the Patreon. You work hard on this comedic videos

You gotta do a full on video of the hector verse!

I feel like the next hood film that you should do is end of watch

The gap in between the tire space is normally a "belly" containing more packages in my experience. Usually all fedex ground trucks will have a belly. Now if it's just a metal sheet coming down, I too would like to know what it's for.

Barrio and primms cinema need a collab vid 😂

There were maybe bullets in the mag. There was not one in the chamber. If he pulled back the charging handle he could have put one into the chamber.

god I miss this era...what i like to call the Urban Action era where the story is more acton cenetered rather than drama (love those 2) Films like Romeo Must Die, Exit Wounds, Cradle to the Grave, Fast and the Ferouous, man, Luke Cage and Ironfist should have come out during this era, when Urban Action (or Urban Wushu.....hip-hop and kung fu films) were all the rage bring back Urban Action/ Urban Wushu....and good Urban Horror......oh shit. Imagine Ghost Rider: Robbie Reyes as a bario action horror movie!.....youve got gangs, car chases! LA, and add in the spirit of vengence possessing Robbie Reyes as he deals with the ones who threaten his home as well as deal with a demonic entiity in the era! this style of film would be perfect for that! plus it would be dope 2 see another Latino comic book character on the big screen as well as the big screen return of a GhostRider! (his hellfire doge charger is off the hook!)

Sheeting on trailers is for aerodynamics, as people have said already, but the trailers in the movie were raised up and air brake lines, spare tires, etc. were removed. Most of the stories I’ve heard of cars going under trailers in the real world (typically bad wrecks at night or in the fog at intersections) result in decapitation.

That "ejecto seato cuz" line had me deaddd 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Your videos are funny AF. Keep up the good work and keep fighting the demonetization.

in real life the trailer on 18 wheelers is too low for any car to fit under it, thats why in the movie they had to build a custom one for that scene just to make it work

"His bolt carrier got jammed" 😂 Old Barrio the gunsmith, my favorite facet of the old foo

I noticed no Cheech and Chong flicks in any of your videos, they have quite a few, my personal favorites were "up in smoke" "nice dreams" and "things are tough all over" I wouldn't really consider them hood classics but they are classics and everyone in the hood has watched them, for the most part. Met a couple of young stoners at my last job ages ranging from 19- 23 saying that half baked was the best stoner movie ever, yet they never seen any cheech and chong movies and some of them would wear shirts or beanie's of cheech and chong which I thought was sad. Even Born in East LA, Desperado, and Dusk till Dawn where well known in the hood.

@Theogrn is correct. Those sheets are just for aerodynamics. The trailers used in F&F were modified to be high enough that a lowered Civic could fit underneath. Normal trailers aren't tall enough for even a lowered Civic to drive under, with aero sheets or not.

Had to pause for a full 2min on Hector from the Hector-verse.... From laughing. & You know what happens when you can't.. stop.. laughing...

Me after 4 minutes into the video: “Wait a minute where’s that Chon Chon sauce?- “4:12 “aaaah there it is”

You're kind of mad generous with your orales. Also, Traffic or Price of Glory might be worth adding to your movie reviews list. Palabra.

Probably in here already, but the panels on semi trailers are called green wings, meant to reduce drag and improve fuel efficiency

The sheet under the trailer is for better aerodynamics, prevents air from getting in and going against the truck, it’s supposed to help with better MPG for truck drivers but honestly it’s only a little bit of a difference…love your work bro

Do La Bamba homie!

the fins under trucks are for wind resistance, they make the big rig more aerodynamic.

I'm a trucker the fins underneath the trailer are called wind-skirts they're for better airflow which helps burn less fuel and to keep the trailer from blowing over on Windy days

2 Fast 2 Furious is an obvious hood movie, but I would love to see a video on that one

awesome video n u had me rolling all the way through n dats some dope editing too💯💯💯

I remember when this came out. I was driving my built up mustang and the theater parking lot was full of imports to see this opening night.

Great work, Barrio. You should consider reviewing “The Outsiders” greaser hood movie.

This movie was more deserving of the title "Mi FAMILIA."

"his bolt carrier group" mm yes his daniel defense wheels are riding too low on his mk18 spoiler 😂😂

I 100% agree with you about stopping at Fast 5! Everything afterwards is ABSOLUTELY absurd and ridiculous, even for a F& Fseries.

Just binge watch every video! My man had the epic cuts and edits, so damn funny. Thanks for the entertaining content!! Keep ‘em coming!

Loved this video, really funny, keep it up please! Please do "Crazy / Beautiful" with Jay Hernandez Thanks!

Love to see your channel growing

I would consider the original fast and furious a barrio classic

It's funny he doesn't mention his brother when he telling his whole life story

Not hood perse but street folk movie. This is what the LA car scene used to be, what an time to be alive there

9:16 That's the classic "HK slap" played in reverse. The actor did the right move but they ran it backwards in the edit for some reason. Guess they thought it looked cooler

Haha I always thought of it as a remake version of ‘Point Break’ w/ Keanu Reeves and the late, Patrick Swayze

guy falling out of the Camaro is the best, that's in the Big city of Reidsville Ga between the ACE Hardeware and Oreillys auto parts on HWY 280, about 3 blocks from my dads house

That flap under a trailer is for "fuel economy".. Also, there are frame rails under there that would complicate driving under there..

You go from street racing and stealing dvd players to saving the world a driving a car in space

The long flaps under semi trucks is for wind displacement kind of like the wings on the back of these fast and furious cars

The truck thing in movie uses a modified truck. It's explained in the behind-the-scenes on the DVD or Blu-ray too I guess. But yeah, stunts require faking for the camera. It happens all the time. No truck is that fucking high with nothing underneath lol. It was lifted and had shit removed just to fit the car. Trucks have that I guess as standard. Someone below said for aerodynamics which makes a lot of sense.

Hilarious video😂😂😂 I wanna see more of these vids and editing

Okay, I'm gonna explain it. Those sheets of metal are to help with aerodynamics, though some are reinforced to prevent cars from going under them during accidents. Especially with hazardous material loads.

Orale homie!!! Another amazing video! hope you get that sweet Patreon fedia.

Lol. "His ligma gasket breaks and his Bolt carrier group jams, because his trigger on the hammer overheats"

A car can not fit under a 18-wheeler trailer. They had to place blocks to raise the trailer high enough for a car to fit under. The things on the side make it more aerodynamic and increase fuel efficiency.

If you do another Fast & Furious video, it’s gotta be 2Fast 2Furious; “ejecto seato cuz” 👌🏾😂

I have to respectfully disagree. Fast and furious is just an action movie. Also, they should have stopped after Tokyo Drift (my favorite)

You should do: Training Day, End of Watch

The sheet metal under the big rig is for aerodynamics. I heard they used custom trailers, no way a Honda can fit under there

I’m pretty sure Dom was supposed to be Italian initially, but somehow is Hispanic in the new movies lol

It counts as a hood movie when Paul Walker comes in with a bandana and a MK3 with Propane tanks wired up to the engine, and also when Vin Diesel shows up with a gold tooth and in a slammed 75' charger.

You left out that drive by the "tec savy kid" dies in on the scoreboard, as we know a drive by is a hood movie staple especially for the era and the city the movie is based in

This is literally "Point Break" in a car movie instead of surfers.

I live these videos. Intro is already awsome

Ay, no cap, my man said five to $800?! For a 15 minute video at 15 K subs?! Bruh that shit seems super attainable. Damn I may have to be rethinking my whole life strategy and shit. Subbed and liked dog, good work out there

Yo does hector even know that he has his own verse? It’s impressive, really. Good for the homie hector.

The first 3 in the series were unironically good At least to me

Not only does it take place in Los Angeles, but it takes place in the late 90s/early 00s yellow tint Los Angeles

Me en my homie use to quote the whole “I Neva narced on nobody” all the time for some reason

Brians sgt Buffalo Bill is also Candycane voice in Joy Ride w Paul Walker as well.

Were did Dom put his feet when Brian picks him back up .. since he doesn't have a floor board anymore

Wait 🤔 if each sticker adds 5 extra horsepower then why did 4 stickers add 25 horsepower?! 😂

KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK MANN

Let's all remember pual walker, was supposed to bring down Torettos FAMILY

Fast Five was the best one every film after that was overkill

my local movie theater is going to play this movie @ 7:30 on tuesday and on wednesday at @ 7:30 again they will be play 2 fast 2 furious

love this movie lil meme in my group about that tuna scene withe the song track in the back ground shit always gets me chucklinh hard

3:35 quickie gets dangerous 🤣🤣🤣🤣

hands down this is a hood movie the director from boyz n da hood John Singleton directed fast & furious and 2 fast 2 furious as well

Do Training Days, bro. That's a hood movie too!

At scene 4:00 it was actually filmed at real place which was an industrial park but looks a lot different nowadays

okay, to be fair, after years of thinking about it, I DO think Brian’s floor pan could fall out like it did, but that’s only if it was slightly bent. At that speed, the air flowing through the bend on the floor pan could theoretically pull the floor pan off if the bolts aren’t tight enough. But that’s IF there was a bend and the floor pan wasn’t bolted down like it should be. Realistically, it would be welded to the rest of the body but whatever I suppose

That big flap that fills the space under the trailer between the wheels is for aerodynamics, keeping air from being pulled under the trailer reduces drag. The trucks in F&F were way taller than they are in reality anyway, cars can't just slip under there.

3:40 wtf is this from ?? Bro strapped up and slapped up 😆
