TCG Sees Ford vs Ferrari?

 

[Angela@KRWINS]

Is this gonna be a group thing? I would be up for it!!!

Miles & Shelby would have been a more accurate title for this movie. The movie was more a telling of their stories than the rivalry between the two car companies. It felt like they glossed over a lot of stuff when it came to the GT40 build. It could have used more racing. Not a terrible movie, but much less than what I was hoping for. ❤❤???

Which guys is Ford and which guy is Ferrari?

 

[Angela@KRWINS]

This was from 2010 Shelby America in Vegas. It is the Ford GT prototype the Carol Shelby designed and built. You see the bump on the drivers side roof? Well Ken Miles was a very tall man and he crooked his neck to fit in the GT40. The bump in the roof of the prototype is a tribute to Ken Miles.

The second is Shelby’s “unrestored” original cobra.

This movie delivered, Wife and I both enjoyed it very much.

 

[sickmint79]

wasn't familiar with the story (at least the hollywood version of it) - was mostly fun (and a little sad)

 

[IceCreamAssassin]

Was an excellent flick!

 

[BeerOrGasoline]

excellent movie, pretty accurate for hollywood and very deserving of the reviews its getting.

It may not be as flashy as Hollywood tells it, but it’s still amazing.

I could see it again, who's in for a group watch at Barrington 24?

Also, looks like all of the theaters are dropping the IMAX screenings this Wednesday!!!! WTF?

 

[EmersonHart13]

I skipped IMAX because there weren't any showings when my wife wanted to go. Also I noticed it wasn't showing at every theater either... I found that weird

 

[Kensington]

Wife and I both enjoyed it thoroughly. Bale is obviously awesome. I wasn't quite convinced of Damon as Shelby, but he made it work well. I mean, I know there's time constraints, but I didn't like how they left out key parts of the genesis of the GT40 and the car that was pitched before the GT40...

And yeah, this was definitely the Shelby and Miles story...

 

[Spivitz]

Tomorrow my Dad, Brothers and I goin to see this. It's exciting.

I've not been to the movies with my Father since Jaws 2

?
