Come with me to the Hollywood Premiere of the first Fast & Furious movie

[@Alaskan.Crippler.Nation]

It doesn't feel like 23 years since the first movie. I know what I'm doing when i get home from work

[@Kev27RS]

22 years actually. (23 years since production)

[@still_dre_]

​@@Kev27RSno, the premiere was in 2001. That's 23 years

[@Kev27RS]

@@still_dre_ Yes, my bad. I know that it was in June 2001. I just miscalculated for some odd reason… 😂

[@stephen1774]

23 years feels like yesterday to me

[@Qwepzy]

90'S Early 2ks vibe was something else, Looked like a great era to be living unlike now!

[@Carlos.Rivera]

Oh boy, we grew up healthy and happy.

[@kubamax9kubowski176]

It’s always like that. People will eventually look at 2010s and say how great that era was and how everyone seemed happy.

Your wife convinced you to start creating content on KZbin... wow! 👏👏She's got faith in you, and it was a good call. Look at all your subscribers. Plus we all absolutely enjoy watching your videos and getting insider Info that hasn't been spoken about.

[@ThisTruckingLife]

Kudos to your wife for pushing you to do this KZbin channel it's great!

[@teku11151]

Yeaaah he finally listened to my suggestion and changed the engine sound! Haha thanks Craig

[@MegasXLR]

Unforgettable memories you have there my friend, thank you for sharing them with all of us! :)

[@Z69Silveraydoe]

It was awesome when my buddies and I left the movie theater and everyone was looking at our cars in the parking lot. We were skreet racing before it was cool

[@user-bp5py6bh3g]

Any plans to do a video on the cancelled 2003 Fast and Furious video game made by Genki? Cheers

[@nikobellic2515]

This would be cool if Craig had any knowledge on it

[@jdiluigi]

I was 21. Saw it opening weekend in my area. The parking lot basically turned into a burnout competition etc. when it let out... Thank goodness social media wasn't a " thing " yet.

[@psementalist]

Holy cow it really doesn't seem like it's been 23 yrs since The Fast and The Furious first came out

[@beogeek]

yea i was like nah its been line 11,12 years. Then I checked and I was 14 then holy smokes that went fast!

[@johnnybiggtyme]

Word ... I even still remember when I saw The Fast And The Furious advertised during the movie Driven ... I knew I had to see it.

[@BRIANOCONNOR2003]

I saw it yesterday on dvd with dts sounds on it and it's still a amazing movie 😎

[@someguy2998]

Only watched the first 3 movies and only still watch the OG F & F.

[@southwest2375]

I enjoy your videos! Takes me back to 2003 ! I’m from 96 ! This is my childhood movie

[@robertdavies7802]

I’m from the uk and was 4 years old at the time of this movie release, I always remember the advert on t.v of the heist civic with letty going under the truck. Been stuck in my head ever since !

[@southwest2375]

@@robertdavies7802 Yea 2fast2furious was my movie and the R34 scene,especially when the R34 was on the highway!🛣️ .it would’ve been better if that scene on that highway would’ve been longer just a couple more seconds!

[@tomfoolery8393]

Love your videos. Keep it up. It really is amazing and hard to believe its been 24 years. Love it.

[@tepboi]

I like your content I been a subscriber for a while

WHO THINKS THEY SHOULD HOST A 25TH ANNIVERSARY RACE WARS?

[@MclaughlinTV]

Another great video. Also props for mentioning Two Lane Blacktop one of my all time favorite movies

[@SMEARGLEX75]

I personally think the Camera Work of F&F1 made the Film feel like an Indie Film and till this Day, its the only Film of the Series that has that Feel.

[@Codestersmusicandcars]

Hey Craig, you should grow that goatee back.

[@joeblow5214]

Your story with local media sensationalism and editorial games reminded me of a couple of stories dealing with crime reporting. One was a local kid that was stupid and shot his eye out with a BB gun. The backstop he was shooting was a old car hood that he was warned about by almost everyone and it ricocheted just right. But long story short local media interviewed at least 10 or 20 locals for 5 to 10 minutes a piece and they edited it down to to a 30 or 45 second hit piece on BB guns using the most crazy sound bites from locals. Then you had the 7-11 owner in Chicago that had his store mobbed by "youths", he said every media outlet was out there with him for 30 minutes a piece, but one or two only used about 10 seconds of the most tame takes avoiding any of the footage of him detailing the multiple previous incidents of this happening to his store. ALWAYS RECORD YOUR INTERVIEWS WITH THE PRESS.

[@kibawhitefang7176]

Tell us how _Spoon_ get to be mentioned in the movie.

[@LuckyQuadrifoglio]

It looks and sounds like a ton of fun

[@icanseeyouallfromuphere]

, the work that goes into movie production is totally shocking,

[@JonathonWilday]

Hello Craig I'm been watching a few of your videos from the uk the past few weeks I've really enjoyed them keep them comeing something about fast and furious really got me in to cars from tuning them to going to shows its a shame how the car scne is now with how expensive living is and plus most cars as standard now you don't need to do much I also wanted to say it would be great if u would reply but your work on fast and furious helped make it the classic is it today so thank you as fans were all greatful my question and hope is that universal rehire you to finish the franchise because since fast 7 people makeing the decisions on the way the film goes is clearly loseing the plot and it needs to go back to its roots asap all the best from the uk

[@nickadams2451]

Craig are there any Red Line posters that ever got leaked out? I wondered if anyone you knew had one? Years ago I came across a vinyl decal sticker I believe was from the merch? Wish I still had it. 😢

[@craiglieberman]

havent seen one in 22 years.

[@justinlin6879]

If it wasn't for Craig fast and the furious wouldn't be big .

[@FURYTHEHUTTSTRIKESBACK]

Definitley, his builds had a ton of influence on car culture

[@VF1Skullangel]

That would have been cool to have been there back then! I remember ditching class to go see the first movie in the theater. It was great times.

[@jvrkandc]

Cool vid as always Craig, But Im concerned,,,,You don't sound & act on screen as you usually did with your other vids ...Are you OK Sir?

[@martindeleon9863]

It looks like he’s reading from a teleprompter, so it may be him trying to get used to it. We use these on set and if you’re not a professional speaker who uses them regularly, it can be tough to get used to.

[@luigisummo5131]

Craig why wasn't Lucas Black in the two premieres of fast 7 and fast 9?

[@craiglieberman]

I didn't on those movie so I cant say

[@d1specdrifter]

He was probably busy with other projects.

[@decepticonleader316]

I went to the Fast 7 movie and they had cops in the parking lot waiting for someone to speed off tires screeching.

[@Adventurekm]

It would nice to get back to reality or closer then the flying cars taking down tanks. The addition of the Rock is where it all started to go down hill. Too many fake effects. I like your stories keep them coming. Maybe do a video on what's new in the import scene.

[@marcoaurelio6941]

a buddy slapped that badge on it

Just like every action movie out there doesn't have at least 1 high speed chase scene 😂... Its like making the same argument like every action movie having guns in them or horror movies hacking up people 🤔 WARNING ⚠️ please don't imitate Freddy Kruger in real life folks 😂!

[@sash328]

Craig, the TV does have an influence on people, I watch a lot of news and became stupid.

[@JoseMedina-hs9st]

A similar to Need for Speed Underground that before you play the game there's a intro telling you that what you see in the game is not real

[@siddheshpillai3807]

Literally watching the first three fast and furious is better than all Assassin's creed games shadows included

GROW YOUR GOATEE BACK!!!! Idk why I care. Sorry, I’m weird. 😅

[@kl0wnkiller912]

Great videos, great movies. Did these movies "encourage street racing"? Sure they did, just like all those other movies he mentioned did... so what? Street racing has been around almost as long as kids with cars. I did it in the 70s and I would bet most car guys on here did too at some point. It is what it is, get over it.
