Technically Better Luck Tomorrow is part of that world too in a weird way because the character Han in F&F is the same Han in BLT. Justin Lin just put him in the franchise but it's the same character. So if you wanted to be a hardcore completionist watch BLT first.

Fast Five's ending pushes it over the top for me anyways. It was the best out of the franchise. You had that whole extended scene where they become big baller millionaires and everyone had great scenes to close it out. Also, best one hit wonder song ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zp1TbLFPp8 Jenny Angel posted:If you want to get really nitpicky then the Better Luck Tomorrow character is named Han Lue and the Fast and Furious is named Han Seoul-oh, but the explanation that makes the most sense is that one or both of these are aliases so let's go with that. Han Seoul-Oh is probably one of most ridiculous and awesome aliases ever too. I wonder if the screenwriter waffled back and forth on whether to go with that before deciding gently caress it..let's do it. Modus Operandi fucked around with this message at 03:01 on Apr 6, 2015 |

CharlieFoxtrot posted:They reproduce this with the choices in cars too. Brian prefers quick and maneuverable Japanese tuner cars while Dom has always been associated with American muscle. The Rock shows up in his APC, while you know poo poo is going down with Owen Shaw when he comes in with some crazy F1-style poo poo with anti-vehicle gadgets The f1 thing was a nice nod to British formula racers too...ie. James Hunt. If a British super villain showed up it's exactly what you would expect him to be driving.

Maybe people just underestimate Bryan O'Connor's hidden strength levels. Modus Operandi fucked around with this message at 04:59 on Apr 6, 2015 |

DrVenkman posted:It's worth mentioning, because I read so many comments that were along the lines of 'As if Paul Walker could take on Tony Jaa' and it's like, as presented in this movie he really could. They find a great balance of making Jaa the better fighter but Walker being just about able to keep up. As much as I like Tony Jaa, in real life Paul Walker probably could take him. Walker is much bigger and is also a BJJ black belt. Jaa would be hosed for sure. In movie terms it's about right I suppose. The way Jaa goes out in the end was pretty funny at least.

Alfred P. Pseudonym posted:I think I can safely say that Paul Walker cannot win a fight against Tony Jaa. He knows muay thai with no ground game and limited high level experience in competition. He's not Buakaw for god's sakes he's more of a stunt man. He'd be screwed against a black belt BJJ guy same as any other average person with no grappling.
