The First Image From Fast & Furious 8 Is Out, Confirms New Location - CINEMABLEND (http://www.cinemablend.com/new/First-Image-From-Fast-Furious-8-Out-Confirms-Location-106447.html)

I really have mixed feelings about this if this is actually true, I have loved the series and the last movie was awesome but I think this is really pushing it. The way the last one ended was perfect and I think they should just leave it that way rather then being greedy and still trying to cash in.

IIRC, the movie was already in the works (with contracts signed) before Paul Walker passed away.

[white rocket]

Correct. Fast 8 was already a done deal pretty much. They(producers) are looking to keep this money train chugging along for as long as possible. It could go well into double digits at this point.

[XplicitLuder]

pretty sure Vin Diesel said he was going to film it to # 10, as he's helping produce the movies. He said this when he accepted an award in the last few weeks (forget what the award show was called)

[320icar]

Aaaaaam I the only one who liked the original but can't stand any of the others?? So with no attachment to the series I can just sit back and smile that someone it's gone on to #8

[Vansterdam]

last one was dope hope the newest one is just as good

[Sentinel]

I really enjoyed 5, 6, 7.

8 is gonna have some tough steps to climb to be even better than 7.

[twitchyzero]

it's a massively successful franchise...it just blew up after 5 and the money kept rolling in for Universal.
I doubt it'll even end with Diesel leaving after #10
before we know it it's gonna overtake the Bond franchise in terms of sequels

[hotjoint]

They can keep making F&F films, I'll keep going to watch them :)

[snowball]

I don't remember most of what happened in 7 except for the car jump and "see you again"

them feels.

[winson604]

My mind on this franchise has sure shifted over the years. For reference I was 19 when the first one came out.

#1 - Oh shiet so fucking cool
#2 - Sucked
#3 - Ok enough
#4 - Seriously fucking enough already
#5,6,7 - Shit just got real again.

Needless to say I'm on board with #8 and #9 and #10 and so on.

[white rocket]

Now the franchise is basically a full fledged action flick that happens to have cars as a minor focal point. A far cry from the first one. It's almost like Mission Impossible with a different rag-tag cast. The franchise will give way to older actors wanting a part role(ie: Kurt Russell) and also current popular actors (ie: Jason Statham) to be the villian. It's endless really. It "should" surpass Bond with ease.

[Berzerker]

As Vin has said many times. Fast 7 was FOR Paul, Fast 8 is FROM Paul. The concept of this one was mostly Paul's vision so it will be interesting to see.

Berz out.

[Mr.Money]

.....the real question is...would if there is a 10 seconds scene of CGI paul? :troll:

Bump, trailers out and boy was this a twist

https://youtu.be/574avDXfpMk

[JSALES]

Saw the trailer and movie looks like shit

[pastarocket]

The only details that got my attention was the brief clip of the orange Murcielago in the trailer and Charlize Theron playing the villain. LUL

The plot twist is interesting too. :troll:

[thumper]

avengers going after the winter soldier... oh wait wrong movie... i think?

[jonwon]

lul vin getting cucked

[pastarocket]

Dom betrays his family? There's gotta more to this plot twist. :suspicious:


This movie franchise's props just keep getting bigger and bigger. First, tanks, now submarines? :lawl:

[hotjoint]

Like I said earlier, they can keep making F&F movies and I'll keep going to watch them. Can't wait!

[AzNightmare]

Plot twist is so good, almost regret watching the trailer. Cause I knew I was gonna watch this movie in theatres anyway, and shit would have been nuts had I learnt about the twist during the movie...!

But you know, these are the kind of things that keeps the franchise alive.
The first few films were strictly just about car racing. And it was good fun for enthusiasts, but the franchise wouldn't have survived if that was the only thing they did. It's a niche market and the demopgrahics isn't strong enough. It's not a conincedence the franchise exploded after the the last few movies when it became more of an action thriller movie with a theme of using sports cars and a theme of car racing.

I know last movie was the perfect ending for the franchise. And the series was getting stale, but with a twist like this, it sure got me wanting to know more about the plot with this one.

[underscore]

Aaaaaam I the only one who liked the original but can't stand any of the others?? So with no attachment to the series I can just sit back and smile that someone it's gone on to #8

The first was a great movie, based off an article in a magazine I think. The second and third were pretty good, though a bit cheesier. The forth it stopped being about cars and started becoming a shitty action movie, then 5/6/7 it went full shitty action movie. The plots of the latest 3 have been so bad I barely remember them, other than the pathetic grasping at straws to backtrack to before Tokyo Drift and to bring Letty back to life.

[highfive]

Lol at the YouTube comments

"And all this was started by a tuna sandwich" haha

[ae101]

I saw this during the cowboys giant today, just had to share

At this point i don't know if Jason statham is a good guy or a bad guy lol

[6o4__boi]

Charlize Theron is still so hot

:sweetjesus:

[pastarocket]

Charlize Theron is still so hot

:sweetjesus:

Charlize is aging well. She's like a vintage Ferrari. :sweetjesus:

[Manic!]

The whole trailer I'm like WTF man WTF.

But remember:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATc1MqutSAQ

and the real story behind the first movie:

Racer X, the story that inspired Fast & The Furious (http://www.decibelcar.com/menugeneric/106.html)

[freakshow]

I hate the title.. couldn't they just stick with Fast 8 or something?

And they better have a good explanation for Vin's betrayal.. better not be 'mind control' or something stupid

[thumper]

fate.... faaate... sounds like f8 if it were a word? am i reaching too far?

[AzNightmare]

fate.... faaate... sounds like f8 if it were a word? am i reaching too far?

It's tacky, but "clever", and it probably isn't a coincidence either.

I wouldn't be surprised if they changed the title to be stylized with "F8" at a later time. Some of the previous movies like Fast and Furious 6 was titled "Furious 6" in the movie.

[StylinRed]

it looks good, but imma miss paul being in em

glad statham stuck around

[bobbinka]

And they better have a good explanation for Vin's betrayal.. better not be 'mind control' or something stupid

probably mia and her kid got kidnapped or some shit

[white rocket]

Movie title is beyond ghey. Or course someone Vin cares about is in harms way and he has to betray to save them. Mia would be too predictable; would be cool if it was Brazil cop chick from Fast 5 or maybe Brian had a brother that no one knew about and his real life brother makes a cameo(that would actually be pretty good). Either way, the cheesebag dialog and over the top action will make this movie very watchable; just like all the others.

[MarkyMark]

Have the last couple movies been sponsored by Dodge or something, seems like that is the car of choice when they go on missions now. I get they moved beyond being ricer street racers but they could still use imports to do shit instead of a boring ass black Dodge.

Pretty much Dodge followed by a few supercars

[AzNightmare]

Yeah... I just noticed, the trailer didn't really have imports..

[loong]

Saw a s2000, gtr, and supra in one of the scenes but none of which will get any driving time on screen.

https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5613/31256250980_3faf9d1f9d_o.jpg

[6o4__boi]

prolly cus Dodge are cheap as fuck to replace

[ae101]

Bump heard that movies gonna be out April 14th, just like before

Edit: i mean the good old days

[ZN6]

Damn, no longer just runnin' fools with honda 2000s a la Jesse and his Jetta.

[Gh0stRider]

Watching the advanced screening tonight. Woot woot

[white rocket]

Got VIP tix for tomorrow's show. Should be a fun ride in comfy spacious seats.

[604STIG]

D-Box tickets purchased for tonight. Ready for some vroom, vroom, bang, bang action.

[StylinRed]

Just got back from a 10:30 show, not bad, a but cheesier than the last... Not my fav.. but ya not bad

Dem feels at the end :(

6.5/10

[Marshall Placid]

It's better than the last one.

Good, not great.

Some of the scenes were done well.

[donk.]

4/10

[sdubfid]

First 10mins was the best

[Sir_Loin]

First 10mins was the best

It was like Fast 1 again then it turned into Fast 6/7 global threat + family + dinner/toast.

[CorneringArtist]

7/10. Something felt off watching it, but Jason Statham's scenes felt like they belonged in Crank. A good thing considering parts felt slow.

[spoon.ek9]

watched it for free with VIP tickets via Toyota 86 event. Free drinks, popcorn, candy and swag definitely made it a good experience haha. Movie itself was good, tons of ridiculous scenes of course :rofl:

[Jmac]

Choked TF&TF is no longer on Netflix :QQ:

Will probably wait for this one to hit streaming services rather than see it in person; last few F&F movies have been too superhero-y for me to watch in theatre and it doesn't sound like this one is any different.

Interesting statistics for the F & F franchise:


The Fast & Furious blockbuster franchise unfolds over nearly 14 hours so far—and that’s before an eighth movie in the $4 billion series, The Fate of the Furious, arrives in theaters on Friday. The newest film will speak in a lucrative language that audiences have learned to crave: gear shifts, engine revs, car chases, angry banter about cars, and sips of Corona. Exactly how fast and how furious is the Fast & Furious cinematic universe? The family at Bloomberg decided to meticulously analyze all seven movies to track their evolution. We counted just about everything that could be turned into a meaningful metric, even screen time for men’s biceps.

And the article lists a lot of interesting information about the franchise.

[Mr.Money]

everything is corny as fuck in fast & furious 8 again if Talking GPS need for speed style didn't cheese you off from the films before or Wait...Building to Building Car Jumps......4/10.

if you have some love for cars and everything about it...you'll enjoy the film but i can't turn my brain off for realism vs thinking of the movies Before Tokyo Drift.

[Nabatron]

i gave the movie 2 thumbs down lol

[thumper]

whoever edited this screwed up some stuff but there is still enough to be interesting... https://youtu.be/7k7anW4MptU

[6793026]

car racers to now crime fighters who somehow without training of any type are fighting with professional SWAP teams.....

[fsy82]

Anyone else notice that The Rock and Vin Diesal didn't share almost any screen time. That felt weird to me so I researched it and apparently they were feuding through the whole movie shoot.

[Tim Budong]

Anyone else notice that The Rock and Vin Diesal didn't share almost any screen time. That felt weird to me so I researched it and apparently they were feuding through the whole movie shoot.

The rock called out Vin Diesel for his tardiness and questioned his work ethics.

Simply put it... The Rock doesn't take his shit lightly and it wouldn't surprise me that he holds each and everyone of his team accountable for all actions and will reward accordingly.

..bias Rocky fan here...

[noclue]

IMO this one was the worst F&F movie, barely talked about cars and went overboard with the fantasy like Mind controlled cars, Submarines etc
The Tyrese Gibson and Ludarcris characters weren't even funny.

Wonder how much budweiser paid to put their beers instead of corona.

[snails]

All this talk about f&f, am I the only one that has lost all interest in is since it's moved from a car based genre to more of a corny action genre. 7 had feels but I still didn't enjoy it as a movie.

Just my opinion but I can't be the only one

[Nabatron]

^did you read most of the comments? lol most of us thought the movie was shit...

[Nabatron]

Its not one of those movies where you are like "man that movie is awesome I need to re watch it again because it was so good" haha

[snails]

^did you read most of the comments? lol most of us thought the movie was shit...

I've also read far more claiming the movie was amazing. I may have mis spoke but I still feel like I'm the minority in feeling the franchise has gone to shit

[Tim Budong]

movie was enjoyable
i turned my brain off most of the time

anyways..how the fuck do you top a submarine now

i can see this... F9 will feature... some sort of nasa space rocket shit

[quasi]

I didn't really enjoy this movie at all. I mean it wasn't Superman vs Batman bad where I fell asleep for 30 minutes but not that far off.

Oh well, I'm sure my son will want to see the next one as well so I'll grin and bare it through that one when the time comes.

[Gumby]

how did Shaw know Dom was headed to NY?
