The more tragic things get,
the more I feel like laughing.

Justin Lin is back and the Rock is gone so maybe this one will actually be good again.

It seems really out of character for the Rock to just leave a paycheck on the table because Vin Diesel threw a tantrum but I guess he's not hurting for work otherwise.

Also I read that article about how the Rock, Diesel, Statham, etc all have contractual stipulations that they win a certain number of fights but the crazy part to me is that all these dudes are in their 50s. I just forgot that they've all been around since the 90's.

I’d heard Johnson and Statham contractually can’t get beat up too bad/emasculated in a fight scene, which is still hilarious, but I’m curious to see the source.

Source is here: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2019/aug/02/fast-furious-stars-contract-demand-not-lose-fights-jason-statham-dwayne-johnson

There were a lot of stories about it during the Hobbs and Shaw PR campaign.

F9 looks....interesting. The faceoff between Cena and Dom in the trailer looked like Cena was trying not to laugh. Also apparently everyone is super human now? I appreciate them finally bringing Lucas Black back into the fold, as well as everyone's favorite.

I'll probably see it.
