What the gently caress is this

Did they have to green screen their scenes separately and try to stitch them together?

Also The Rock is considerably taller than Vin so they shot this in a way so it looks like they are roughly the same height.

If they release Breeze that's a full sweep of the flatbacks crew. He's on a main roster contract in NXT I believe, so I could definitely see him being out.

Does he still do stuff with Woods? They love loving with Woods after all.

Breeze is on almost literally every UUDD video these days.

It's this, he's not Adam Cole levels of 6'0 bad but he is definitely juicing that number for the Wikipedia profile. Good 4-6" between him and The Rock

And if I'm remembering right it's at the end of the movie where they really just want to hug it out but are too macho to say it directly to each other's face.

Fate of the Furious is the one where they're basically never on screen together.

They’re dumb as hell but kind of fun to watch in that spirit. Dudes flying through the air like it’s Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon but without any of the intentional mythological vibe CTHD was going for.

Plus they’re all about fambly. Unless their fambly is more popular than your fambly then gently caress your fambly.

It's somehow simultaneously the best and worst franchise.

5-7 are legit great action heists with superheroes in cars, don't sleep on those.

Fast Five is a genuinely fun and silly heist movie that requires essentially no knowledge of the series to work. There's a scene where they rob a safe from a police station and drive down a street dragging it behind their cars, it's loving idiotic.

tokyo drift was hilariously dumb but sung kang is so loving cool that he just makes the movie kind of fun to watch, esp the dynamic between him and lucas black in full yokel mode (this is his only mode)

5 was a real fun action heist movie with great action set pieces

after 5 i got bored with them but i like those two yea

fast 4 is basically not worth watching even for people who like f&f movies so like if you wanna complete them, just make sure you're also doing anything that will hold your attention during that one


e: oh and i still genuinely like 1 because i was 13 when it came out and i went and saw it in theaters and i wanted a lowered acura integra with a dumb plastic body kit real bad anyway, plus point break is just a great movie

1 is fun to watch now as a novelty and to compare where they start vs the ridiculous scale it ramps up to.

2, 4, and 8 I'd say are just flat bad.

3 & 5-7 loving rule though and make the whole franchise worth it.

Tokyo Drift also has the most blatantly homoerotic line in the whole franchise, and that's a crowded field

The weird names for all the F&F movies kinda own too. Instead of it just being F&F1, 2, 3 it’s 2 Fast 2 Furious. Or the 4th one they did the thing Apple did when they tried to name an iPad “the new iPad” so it’s called Fast & Furious with no The. Then they realized that’s confusing as gently caress so the next one is just called Fast Five.

1) gently caress WWE
2) Firing a bunch of people during a plague for the second time in 366 days (and the same day as a year ago) isn't funny, two actors who pride themselves on appearing big and tough being too big of actual drama queens to film their part of a scene being in the same room as each other is hilarious. I know which I'd rather talk about when I need to laugh

He's been trying for years to land a role as Black Adam (and it's paid off, movie's slated to come out in summer 2022), presumably so much so that he's rebuffed any offers Disney may have made in that vein

Kind of hard to talk about them without being worried about their future. They’ve had to cut budgets and talents and I don’t know how much longer they can put smiles on people’s faces. Maybe they’ll cut 15 NXT contracts and be able to make ends meet. If not then we may need to start a GoFundMe for them.
