2. All the Fast and Furious Movies
Despite being immensely successful at the box office and spawning numerous sequels, all the Fast and Furious flicks did more harm than good to the car community. First, all those movies are borderline science fiction in terms of car dynamics, stunts and driving. They are fun, but totally unrealistic, which is totally okay. But teenage audiences who are impressed by the flashy rides and “special” performances are getting a different picture of what cars really are.
When they released the first movie, it sparked the obnoxious ricer car culture with over-the-top spoilers, NOS systems and crazy body kits. Also, the first movies from the series glorified street racing, which is extremely dangerous and shouldn’t be promoted in any way.
