Fast & Furious Blu-ray Trilogy reviewed, D-BOX shines

The new Fast & Furious, not to be confused with the old Fast & Furious, is all set to become the first major theatrical release with D-BOX baked in. And as TheHDRoom points out, these movies were just born to be felt as well as watched. When reviewing the trilogy on Blu-ray, they found these discs immediately among their favorite D-BOX discs. More specifically, they noted that the sensation was strong and engrossing throughout, especially when cars were changing gears -- though they did confess that Tokyo Drift suffered from jolts that were just too faint to really enjoy. Of course, you'd have to be the world's biggest F&F fan to let this trio of flicks convince you to pick up one of those pricey D-BOX motion chairs, but if you're leaning that way, give the read link a look beforehand.

im sorry, i know its not a big deal, but the first movie was called "the fast and the furious", the new movie coming out is called "fast and furious".

As disturbing as your name is, I'm glad you pointed out the difference.

...seems like this would make a lot more sense if a few months when you can release the upcoming movie in the set.

Woah... this sounded really cool until... $5k ?!?! That's some serious dough to be dropping nowadays.

Note: Obviously--but just in case--my comment was toward the D-BOX, not the Blu-Ray release!

$5K is actually good for this technology. I have a D-Box system (controller and two loveseats with built-in actuators) and retail on my set up was well over $20,000.00. Once you experience D-Box, you just want it for every movie. It is the single biggest advancement to home theater and is the main reason I quit going to commercial cinemas. Now when my local cinemas add D-Box, I'll have a reason to go back. And no I don't work for them :)
