I am worried it will be like Driven. aka way to much crashing...

I will still give it a try though.

I know I'll be disappointed (because the trailer is always better than the movie), but I'll go see it in theaters for sure.

It's directed by Ron Howard, and he appears to have made a real effort to make this as much documentary as drama - see Apollo 13 - and this is about the rivalry between Hunt and Lauda, and the recovery from Lauda's crash at the 'Ring, so there will be crashes, but that's the way it was in 1977. Everything we've heard on the various F1 boards has been positive so far.

I'm all in (read: setting myself up for a huge letdown).

Hunt the Shunt is a favorite character of mine from back when a guy could ...ummm... enjoy their fame without having to fake-apologize to the nation to save their career every time they got photographed with 30 naked stewardesses and a huge bag of blow.

I usually prefer watching racing to watching movies about racing....but this does look good.

I don't see many movies in the theater but I'll make it to this one. I might even take my wife.

If I'm not there on opening night, my wife is going to go without me.

I hope they give a big FU to Sports Illustrated for not naming Lauda Sportsman of the Year. Instead they named Tracy whatsername the prodigy tennis player.
