Kavinsky Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 this just came up in my daily check in 384 Million bucks in the first week of release, the second star trek film only pulled in a 150 mill more than that in its entire run also here's a look at the Raid monster, which was probably inspired by cars like this although why he has part of Kitt as part of the front quarter pannels is beyond me, as it looks like that quarter panel part that came out when they hit super pursuit mode with it in the later seasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detective_Crockett Posted April 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 One thing which disappointed me was ***spoiler** Sean Boswell (Tokyo Drift) was only on screen for about 30 seconds. I was hoping he had a bigger role. They didn't even tell us who won the race. Dude, I know right??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detective_Crockett Posted April 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Like, I was waiting 9 years for this... A huge let down.I know he died 9 years ago and they bought him back (Have you seen the film Better Luck Tomorrow, it's like a unofficial prequel showing Han and some actors from Tokyo Drift) But I tell you something now they've made 7.I'm really going to miss Han, I think he was definitely one of my top 5 favourite characters I absolutely loved him..along with Roman Pearce (he always had his funny moments especially spinning around in the car ) ''We hongry'' but Han, I'm really going to miss him now that 7 is canon with Tokyo Drift and 8 and 9 will take place after Tokyo Drift. Unless, they find a smart way to bring him back? (I also kind of thought that the Blue skyline driving past Sean and Han in Tokyo Drift when they was on the freeway was Brian ) Edited April 8, 2015 by Detective_Crockett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen Better Luck Tomorrow, didn't even know about it... I might save it somewhere and watch it when Furious 7 comes out on DVD, then I can marathon the movies again, watch Better Luck Tomorrow after 2F2F. Could they do a prequel about how Dom and Han actually met? Because they never showed that, it starts with them pulling a heist together and sounds like they'd been doing it for a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious question: Is the film actually called ''Furious 7'' where you are? because over it's called ''Fast & Furious 7'' I suppose they don't want to confuse people?

''“We think there’s at least three more. Paul [Walker] is, and always will be, an integral part of the story. But there are many other great characters, and it’s also an opportunity to introduce new characters. I think it’s still a growing franchise. We’ll see what happens with Furious 7, obviously, but our box office has grown over the past three or four films and internationally, in particular. So we think that there’s more to mine there. But we’re of course very mindful about fatigue.â€'' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe bring back Jesse and Leon. Jesse could be out street racing in New York with his father and Leon. Just found this on YouTube, looks like Eva Mendez might be coming back as Monica Fuentes from 2F2F and at the end/teaser scene in Fast 5. Won't be the same without Paul.

Crockettt Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) FAF & 2F2F are the best. Tokyo Drift was really poor, 4 was good but 5,6,7 are more sci-fi than movies about races. Really unrealistic. Edited April 8, 2015 by Crockettt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators James Posted April 9, 2015 Administrators Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Yeah, the first two will always be the best. They have a special vibe/feeling to them, I cannot explain. And this vibe is what made them absolute classics. And the realism, if you can ignore the floor in the Eclipse unbolting itself and danger to manifold.Even 4 was pretty good, it's my favourite of the new ones. But after that it's like they became super spies and it's really unrealistic and full of CGI.But I still love the movies, and I love Vin and Paul. But I actually like Tokyo Drift. Probably the most realistic out of all of them. I thought it was the best movie of the year after I saw it at the movies, I loved it. You folks probably just aren't into JDM and drifting like I am.

I have honestly been a fan since 1 and 2, Paul Walker and Vin had that effect on me, I just..fell in love with the series, and yeah, Tokyo Drift I did like, I think it's much better now though, ''WABAKI!'' and I wasn't so hot on 4 but it was great to see Vin and Paul back, but 5,6,7 have been great movies..the series can only get better now. Paul's death really affected me deeply, one of my idols had died that day, and it still affects me now in ways, I just saw a page of Paul Walker jokes and none of them were funny, distasteful dry and disrespectful, I have no tolerance for that. Imagine if in Fast 10, they're racing in space? And, I would love to honestly see a Tokyo sequel or a true follow up, I do wish they could bring back Han in some way, but it's impossible. You know who else I would love back? Carter Verone, he was a great villain, he'd be perfect to bring back, maybe in 8 he could be because Eva Mendez might be returning?

Administrators James Posted April 9, 2015 Administrators Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 I was thinking of Carter returning, but without Paul it seems pointless. :/ It just wont work. Carter gets out, goes after Roman, but his pal Brian isn't there to help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crockettt Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 I like how the things are connected with Vice. Fast and furious was directed by Rob Cohen who also directed Made for each other, Evan and Definitely Miami. In 2F2F You have James Remar who played Robbie Cann in Buddies and Vice vibe. Joaquim De Almeida who played Nico Arroyo in Bought and paid for appeared in Fast Five as Hernan Reyes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detective_Crockett Posted April 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 I'm shocked, I didn't recognize him either. Also, Stanley Tucci was a character in Transformers 4, and I couldn't believe he was Mosca in Season 4's Contempt of Court, that one was a shock. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what? maybe they could do that for Han I thought the same thing as you Kavinsky, Better Luck Tomorrow isn't related to those movies, but the titles are very similar.

Kavinsky Posted April 11, 2015 Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) His name is Keiichi Tsuchiya. ah yeah that's him, the instructional video I had was with him and some Red AE 86 also with what he's talking about, it really brings the preference of manuals over automatics into play, as Tiff Niddel confused the gearbox on a subaru by just doing a simple 180 with a paddel shifted one in 2007/2008 hence why I think alot of the old timers always talk about how they hate the electronics, as with driving like that it can get invasive and can modify a cars handling in unexpected ways, https://twitter.com/tiff_tv/status/580140009690382336https://twitter.com/tiff_tv/status/580141826025361408 such as what happened when Tiff tried to drift a Mclaren, and with the traction control off it kicked in and caused him to spin out only for me to learn later it was never designed to be driven with the traction control and stability control off from top gear latter, as I was pondering after I watched that, why would they design a car to do that, as that doesnt make any sense. also this is rather interesting in the same sense, like I said he has a good amount of insider knowledge Edited April 11, 2015 by Kavinsky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish I could ask him where they got them as supposedly people bought coats and the glasses to look like him after the film came out, yet no one has them.
