Wow, the Fast series has a smaller production budget compared to other fairly succesful Hollywood properties. The first Iron Man had a budget of 160 mil, about the same as Fast 6.

TheScott2K posted:Only Dom can run over a dude on foot and then call him a pussy. To be fair, he kind of was. Dom is like a level 17 Muscle Car Driver at that point and would have shrugged off that collision. Or, well, he drove imports in the first movie so maybe he dual-classed. So Dom is like level 3 Import Driver / level 14 Muscle Car Driver, while Brian went all-in on Imports. Tej is the 'tinker' of the group and Hobbes straight up went Military Vehicles as a class. Whichever goon first pointed out that these movies are basically a superheroes-with-cars D&D campaign, I tip my hat to you because they really are. I've been rewatching the series to prepare myself for F8 and it's kind of amazing how all of them, even the original and 2Fast, are great and tie in together. Hell, Brian's cop boss guy in the original calls out that he'll have to choose what 'family' means to him (  ). And I can never truly hate 2F2F because without it we wouldn't have Roman or Tej.

That sond totally bangs, but I don't know if I'd put it above Get Low (which to me, has the added benefits of keeping Dillon Francis rich forever)

WarLocke posted:To be fair, he kind of was. Dom is like a level 17 Muscle Car Driver at that point and would have shrugged off that collision. Someone could probably make a pretty sweet Apocalypse World hack for this franchise. If I were designing it, every character would have two sheets: Driver, with classes like Brawler (Toretto, Hobbes), Techie (Tej), Face (Roman) and Gunslinger (Brian, Gisele); and then Ride, where your classes are Muscle, Import, Military, Motorcycle, etc and as you level up you add modification and engine upgrades and hood scoops and poo poo. You get a certain amount of bonus dice per session that you can add to any roll, and they're called your NOS dice. And of course you're not in a party, you're a Family. EDIT: and there's no dedicated Driver class because EVERYONE is a driver. Once you're in your car, you ride or die.

The gang then teams up with the Autobots to take down the Deceptions. I mean, one franchise drives cars, the other one is cars. How has Hollywood not realized this yet?

Why the hell not? Something like that has already been established in the Transformers universe. http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Headmaster_(technology) http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Targetmaster_(technology) The crew can either become the gun or head of a Transformers. That was a weird episode growing up....

The movies from 5 onward really love using the harpoons to attach the cars to each other or other things. All they need to do is enchant those harpoons and the anchor and target can fuse into one.Okan170 posted:As someone who has worked on two of these movies, that is absolutely what we ask ourselves sometimes, what could be next?

Honestly I think I would like to see the Fast and Furious Transformers sent to hell where the crew has to get out and then Nic Cage Ghost Rider transforms Bumble Bee into a demonic hell transformer. I would say Bay is fine but I also want Gore Verbinski because he'd probably want to do it all practical and probably literally create hell on earth for a backdrop.

The next fast and furious Dom returns home to find a plague has taken his village and meets death, who has also come to claim him. Challenging him to a street race, Dom finds himself oddly enchanted in his conversation with death even as he sees that he is slowly losing his last race, one quarter mile at a time.

NBC is doing their part for brand awareness and showing Fast & Furious 6 right now. If you've ever wanted to see it cropped to 16x9 with the swears edited out, here's your chance. Can't remember the last time I saw a movie on network prime time air. Wait, yes I do, when NBC did their part for brand awareness and showed Jurassic Park when Jurassic World came out.
