Freaking 391M in china so far. US is 2nd place at 225M. Over 1.2 Billion. It may be complete shit but it fueled like 3000 spirit cooking parties. I blame 75 lb 4 foot tall chicks they usually spring in these. Warning may break during sex.

Blurays are out next week (July 11), bluray rips are out. There is an extended edition which adds 10 minutes BUT ITS DIGITAL ONLY not on the disc, which is lame as fuck. So for rips you either have to get the regular bluray rip (better quality) or the digital stream RIP which isn't quite as high quality but has 10 more minutes of fight scenes.

Finally got around to seeing this. I won't lie I was entertained, I enjoyed the movie.

With that out of the way, the movie was pretty fucking dumb, from the plot all the way to the action sequences...even by this series standard.

The Rock and Statham were the highlight of the movie for me and I would definitely see a movie with them in it. The Rock can say ANYTHING with a straight face and it never comes off as cheesy or stupid...no matter how cheesy or stupid the line is...it is quite remarkable. :)

I'm not sure where they'll go from here...the series has been about escalating the action sequences in each movie. They had cars jump from building to building, from places, now fighting a submarine. I think they need to go in space next or something. :)

Watched this on HBO, this movie was dumb as fuck, terrible plot, shit story, it made no fucking sense. Paul Walker is probably happy he died so he didn't have to be in this shit.

Michael Bay splosions. The crazy part is like the Rock, Statum, and Vin are all pushing 50 years old and shit. I like how they keep trying to pretend this series is about car racing. Shit peaked in Tokyo Drift and hot Asian pussy and less American Inventor music.

You'll notice I was excited in the post above yours on January 12th. That excitement quickly faded on the 13th to a sadness that has left me in a mild depression to this day.
It isn't only the worst F&F of the bunch, it is the worst movie I have seen Vin, Rock, Statum in.
Acting was fine( well considering what wasn't in a minute ). Cars were good. Effects were good as was much of the filming. I was even excited Tormund dude from GoT was in it along with Russel again, Scott Eastwood, and Theron.

So what was wrong with it? The writing was terrible. The editing and story was terrible. I get it F&F is always topping the last one but it has extended too far.
The sad part is F&F 9 will still hit over a billion fast bucks.
Hopefully they took note that F7 took in 1.5 billion and F8 took in 1.2 billion. and say, lets actually do a story this time.

If F9 wants to make some real money this is how they should do it. A few years have passed Dom is settled down raising a kid, meanwhile Letty hates the fact that the kid isn't hers and Dom has PTSD for letting his Baby Momma die goes into a deep depression and is taking Lexapro and has developed a drinking problem. Out of no where Kurt Russel shows up and is like Dom I need your team. In walks a fat Vin Diesel gained maybe 60-70 lbs. looking like Mac from it's always sunny. Fat Vin Diesel or Fiesel for short

He's like "I gave up that life a long time ago, now I live my life one quarter pounder at a time." Meanwhile Kurt Russel is like you don't get it Dom this time you are going up against the only thing I don't think you can handle.. You

Well it turns out sometime during F8 Charlize Theron made Dom nut in a jar or whatever way to get some DNA and she has cloned him or a few of him who cares at this point. To create some Jean Claude Van Damn level double impact bullshit. Oh and all the Doms have backpack nukes.

Well Fiesel has to take out all the Clone backpack nuke Doms but he is all out of shape and these new Doms can race better than Jesus so he's all like oh shit what do. We check in on the Rock and he is all retired and looking like that fat dude from the Disney Hawaii boat cartoon. So both of them decide to do a montage of gay porn gym training. Meanwhile the rest of the team tries to deal with Clone backpack nuke Dom but they get totally shit on. They all look at each other than say man I wish Paul Walker was here to bad we said he could stay at home today. Shortly after we get a Fiesel and Rock who lost like 70 lbs with 8 minute abs and are ready to fuck shit up. They both get a dodge charger with American flags and nitro and challenge backpack Dom's to a race only to find out Jason Statham didn't get fat because British and already resolved this shit an hour and 1/2 ago. They talk about beer and family then everyone masterbates.

I drove a guy in Uber yesterday. He works in the industry as a props person. He said the next movie (they either just filmed a piece or is about to film a piece) is the movie with Jason Statham & The Rock.

Yeah the Rock/Statham spinoff is scheduled for Aug 2019, its currently titled Omega Underground (codename?) and starts filming Sept 2018. Directed by David Leitch of Atomic Blonde and Deadpool 2.
‘Fast & Furious’ Spinoff With Dwayne Johnson & Jason Statham Shifts To August 2019 – Update
Fast & Furious Spinoff Sets Filming Start Date

F&F 9 is scheduled for April 10th, 2020

The Rock and Vin Diesel apparently despise each other now, they filmed 0 scenes together in F&F 8 and most likely I imagine the Rock won't be in F&F 9 or any moving forward.

They've despised eachother for quite a long time. I think it's more Vin despising The rock than a mutual thing other than Dwayne hating his ego that can fuck with filming. Since one of the earliest movies together I believe. I think I heard Vin is a bit of a bitch/attention whore and gets mad when Dwayne shows up and steals his attention. Something along those lines.

The Kobe and Shaq of Hollywood. Only loser is the audience. Anytime someone comes into an established franchise and steals the thunder it causes problems. Usually people work through it. I don’t recall Joe Pesci and Mel Gibson refusing to do scenes in Lethal Weapon movies.

Sometimes you try too hard, but "I live my life one quarter pounder at a time" was fucking golden material.

This movie is terrible. 20 mins in and I wanted to turn it off. These movies are just so dumb and over the top I cant even enjoy how bad they are.
