Fistful of Car Crashes! (Matt's Picks)

Shouldn't there be an explosion in the background?

So, Fast Five is out today, and we Dorks wanted to give you some of our favorite car crashes in honor of the FIFTH film in this franchise.  The fifth.  There have previously been four of them.  There probably won't be a sequel to Tron Legacy, but there have been FOUR Fast and/or Furious films.  And now there's a fifth.


Anyway, here's my list...

5.  The Pinto Crash from Top Secret.  Who parked in the middle of my battlefield?


4.  Escalator Parking from Crank.  Is this not a proper place to park?  Chev is a pretty good driver, but you shouldn't drive and talk on your cell while being chased through a mall by police.  Even if it is a medical emergency. 


3.  The Demise of The Nightrider.  He may be a fuel injected suicide machine, but he doesn’t have jack-squat on ultra-hardcore cop Max Rockatansky.


2.  Sara’s Flashback from Intacto.  Perhaps not the most explosive or violent crash in film, it is one of the more chillingly effective.  (There's a bit of the crash at around 1:20).


1.  The Death of the Beast from The Duel.  Dennis Weaver made for a really weird action hero, but he got the job done.
