How about Madonna while we're at it. What's Sarah Michelle Gellar up to. And how about American Ninja Michael Dudikoff... The other dimensional race crews will of course be nothing but cameo roles. Well have a dimension of nothing but academy award winners, a dimension of character actors, a dimension of previous fast and furious villain actors wearing mustaches, a dimension of star wars film actors, and of course a dimension of characters all played by gary oldman.

I hope for dimension hopping, aliens, time travel, and the Furious meet God in the future installments. EDIT: Luda and Roman go back in time with their cars in dinosaur era to get their piece of the artifact Han and Mia go back in time to race pirate ships for their piece of the artifact. Letty and Dominic go to the future to race space ships for their piece of the artifact They combine the artifact and God pops out and gives them their mission to race across dimensions to stop aliens from destroying all realities Gatts fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Jul 19, 2020 |

I think it was someone in Thai thread who said the only way to reconcile the films beginnings (low level FBI agent wants to bust thieves who steal VCRs in fast cars) with what it is now (having Kurt Russell send them on a black ops mission to parachute cars out into the Caucasus regions or being chased by a nuclear submarine across an ice shelf) is to go full endgame. They go back in time and collect the crew and everyone who has died and go back to F&F 1. Have Paul walkers brother cgi deaged to play Brian from the first one and then have like, I dunno Nicholas cafe or Hugh Jackman play some super bad guy who was actually around at the start because he knew Toretto had the Car Force and he wanted to steal it from his soul Have some insane action scenes playing up from the best the series had so far Have them fly into space and do a handbrake turn to dodge an asteroid (ludacris: “UHH GUYS... THEY GOT A COMET”) and nos boost back to earth The last action scene though just straight up boosting VCRs off a truck because one of the trucks has a laserdisc with the hidden code imprinted on it with how to fix their time machine BBQ in Doms back yard crack open a corona “la familia” have Brian leave the party play a new hit single by Charlie puth. gently caress I got something in my eye I’m not crying you’re crying Fin Credits roll Open scene Have a person wake up, get dressed, grab some keys, you see they are bald. They pick up their wallet license says Dominic toretto III Keys in the ignition Their flying car flys out of their hover garage and they go into a neo Tokyo “Time to avenge Hans grandson” FAST AND FURIOUS : 2099- COMING SUMMER

Everyone's anticipating something huge and epic for FFX (you know it'll be a roman numeral, it's the only variant they haven't done yet) but I think it'd rock if they went back to their roots and it was a low-stakes crime drama as in the original movie and Tokyo Drift. There's no way it would ever happen, but winding it all down and going character driven like FF1 would be such a surprise. For all the jokes around VHS/TV combo units, FF1 is actually pretty compelling. VIn Diesel is capital-A Acting - the monologue about his father's death is more memorable than entire films in this series - and the dual-identity stuff with Brian gets pretty intense. Toretto's crew are all pretty well fleshed out. Vince in particular is memorable, but that might be because of his using a gay slur and then rocking a mesh tank while failing to make popcorn. Weird guy for a car chase movie. His arc is to get poo poo on constantly and be a loser in comparison to the leads. He gets beat up, Mia hooks up with Brian, then he gets seriously injured and has Brian save him. It's a tough life being an LA car goon. The later films don't have time for characters like this as they have to fit in the 13 or so "ensemble members" around Vin DIesel's ego.

If they want to go back to basics they really should just do a 90s set prequel with a Letty and Dom origin story movie with a new young cast. I actually think that could be really compelling or it could also be a direct to video mess

Boywhiz88 posted:Wait... what? quote:The studio was well aware of the difficulty in acquiring film permits in Japan; in fact, most movies set in the city are shot at other locations and reproduced to look like Tokyo. Ever since the James Bond 1967 film, You Only Live Twice, laws and regulations have become more strict. The process is expensive and frustrating, so Tokyo-set movies are rarely authentic. Some directors went to great lengths to shoot on-location, like the case with Sofia Coppola negotiating heavily to film 2003's Lost in Translation. Lin, however, was still a newcomer at the time, so he took the risk. Universal then hired a “fall guy” who remained on set if trouble arose. Shortly after shooting in Shibuya, the crew was kicked out of the area by law enforcement. When the police attempted to arrest the director, the fall guy claimed that he was Lin and spent a night in jail.

So some guys have made their own remake for The Fast and the Furious for around $100 bucks and only staring the two of them as a way of passing the time during quarantine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFFvudZKlNs Also I got a thread where I watch all the movie over in the BlockBuster Video subforum: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3930404

He was the 'I got his pigsticker' guy in the first one, and Chupa, the one with the drum fed m16, in the second. He was also an impressively crazy bad guy in the Transporter. He was a model for a bit. He's not aged well at all and I wonder what happened.
