I really miss the days when articles were about Mac hardware as well as powerful software and accessories that really enhanced the experience and made it possible for a normal guy like me to be creative.

Fast and Furious 6 is not Tokyo Drift (although he did direct that as well). It's: "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift"
IE the only F&F that was about street racing. Others are heist films with car chases

Ah, bummer, signed for future projects. Guess there goes any hope of him coming back to work on another Star Trek movie. I actually liked Beyond.

So Apple's version will be "The Safely Paced And Mildly Affronted", sounds like another winner!
