    Still think Fast 5 was the best. This one was much better than 6 imo. Really enjoyed it.

    Not sure how reliable this source is but I've seen a couple of similar headlines on facebook:

    Anyone else pick up on Roman's lambo being a tribute of sorts to the buster's orange Supra?

    Doubt that was the reason. If they really wanted to pay tribute to the orange Supra, they would've used something like this, a more direct lineage to the Supra:

    But it's not really a tuner car movie anymore like the old days so it's never going to happen.

    I feel like a tribute would more likely have been a GT-R. Or maybe if one was there and a comment was made/no one wanted to drive it

    Did no one else pick up on Dom naming his kid Brian?

    I also noticed that. Cool tribute. Also great idea to have an Orange GTR that no one wanted to drive. Maybe I reached too far in thinking that the lambo was a tribute. Seemed pretty close to the Supra paint code, but Exoctic cars are typically loud colours.

    I definitely caught that, I was more arguing which car would be a tribute to him. If I was to associate his character with 1 vehicle it would be a blue GT-R (r-34 or 35 doesn't matter) versus a orange supra or similar

    Oh totally, wouldn't argue that. Just thought it was a cool throwback to the original movie.

    that's one of the reasons why I didn't like where they went after the 5th movie, every cars and security cameras in NYC was hackable,
    Tej as a hacker when in FF2 he was just a mechanic and street racer, in FF5 he was good with locks and safe. how many past life did he have?
    Scott Eastwood was boring and not a worthy replacement for Paul Walker, I prefer Kurt Russell.
    Roman was still pretty funny but couldnt save the movie for me

    R-34 maybe but the green Celica is what started all this too.
    he was driving the WRX from 5-7 too but I cant recall 4.

    Not just super spies, the guys are all super heroes. It started slowly in 5 and slowly ramped up until the Rock became the hulk with every punch in 8 haha.

    FnF is basically the Avengers but instead of super powers they have super cars.

    FnF 8 was ridiculously over the top. Submarines, torpedoes, super hax0rs, 5000hp with unlimited tire grip, etc etc.
    None of it made any sense. Bad movie on it's own merits, but I loved every second of it because of FnF nostalgia.

    Can't wait for 9, 10 and the spinoffs.

    You mean the eclipse?

    I know he's driven a few cars, off the top of my head
    2 - he started with the GT-R until cops trashed it
    4 - he had the R35 to race Dom for the spot under Barraga(sp?), then swapped over to the STI after Dom blew it up.
    5 - he had a 1970-72? I believe... skyline at the start when he first arrives in Brazil
    6 - I can't recall a skyline actually being in this film edit: pretty sure he had it at the start of the film, he races dom over to mia in the opening credits
    7 - he had a skyline before the predator took it out

    ah yes, Eclipse, don't know why I was thinking of the Celica earlier :blush:
    he is a skyline fan, I just remember that his 'work' car is the WRX

    I actually fell asleep during the 7th F&F in the theater. God was that ever a bad movie. Tokyo Drift at least had bow wow.

    It's best if you just ignore how some characters suddenly became experts. Like in 5 when Mia suddenly knew computer surveillance and could speak fluent Portugese.

    That part didn't even make sense to me. Brian is "alive" in the storyline. Odd tribute. Would have been better as Paul, I think.
    I can eat more hot wings than you.
