Just got back from seeing this. Fantastic movie, though kinda thrown off that they only brought in Lucas Black for a tidbit role and didn't expand on it. Also, the tribute to Walker was great and the entire theater started clapping when it was over.

I've never seen FF2. Was Tej always some kind of world-class hacking prodigy or was that just something else that escalated uncontrollably from "He knows his way around cars"?

Tej started out as the go-to race promoter on the East Coast. His mechanic Jimmy was the tech wiz.

How many arms will her character have?

2 but obviously she's going to lose one by the end of the film.

Come on Vin, get us the trifecta and get Dame Helen as the Shaw matriarch.

E: and reports confirm that she's in fact playing the film's main villain. this is gonna own so much.

I appreciate that each car actually does a pretty good job of reflecting each character and keeping them distinct.

With a name like "Ice Charger" I now fully expect Dom to unveil a stable of chargers each themed after the next dungeon place the crew will travel to. An Ice Charger, a Jungle Charger, a Lava Charger.

Space Charger. :black101:

You guys are all wrong about the viewing order.

1
2
Better Luck Tomorrow
That short prequel thing on the disc for 4
4
5
6
3
The after credits scene from 6
7

Might as well throw in Turbo Charged Prelude between 1 and 2 for good measure. Shows how Bryan got that sick-rear end R34 that promptly gets wrecked after one race in 2.

E: loving hell beaten like Jesse when he went up against Johnny Tran in FF 1.

I will say that the most joy I got out of this film is any time the Rock or Jason Statham did anything, especially that sequence that was basically Mile High Club from Modern Warfare except with a baby. I would not be opposed to an Odd Couple-style action spinoff with those two

Supposedly there was a cut scene that was supposed to set up a spin-off involving the two.
