The S8 is badass but I do think he should have used an MB to change it up a bit. But for some reason I don't think the new S65 looks matches Statham as well as the A8.

I hope the 3rd is not stupid as the 2nd, there were some dumb scenes in it. Flipped the car upside down and got rid of the bomb under car. I really liked the 1st Transporter, i hope 3 is not a failure like 2 was.

I swear every single person who saw Transporter 2 has commented on how ridiculous that scene with the bomb was. It is one of the most absurd things I have ever seen in a movie. The only other movie I can remember that has insulted my intelligence to that extent is "Wanted"

That evil chick in the 2nd Transporter movie reminds me of my crazy ex..

The Audi S8 is a great choice.. I love that car.

+1 The first one was good but the second one was a major step backwards.

Come on guys, you gotta suspend some disbelief!

A ridiculously implausable scene is the nuclear bomb scene in Indiana Jones (4) where he survives a blast by climbing in a refrigerator (The fridge flies a mile or two and he then walks out with no problem).

This is the first I've heard of a 3rd installment. I KNEW they would make another one and I'm so glad. I'm a big fan of the franchise.

hahaha yeah that bomb scene was indeed ridiculously implausable
i yelled out WTF when i saw that scene
lol

im a fan of The Transporter franchise too but the 2nd one did disappoint me a bit

im a bigger fan of the Taxi franchise though (Taxi 1,2,3&4) (not the TV show nor the lame american queen latifa version)
