This. I'll sleep through it one day when it's on a saturday afternoon
Screw you guys. The F&F movies are fun. Stupid, but fun nonetheless. ![laugh laugh](https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/static/ckeditor/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/teeth_smile.png)
I'm gonna go watch it now. I'll see the movie too. They're just stupid fun at this point. Not that the first one was a pinnacle of automotive accuracy or anything...
Edit: just watched it. John Cena and a rocket fiero. Fantastic ![laugh laugh](https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/static/ckeditor/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/teeth_smile.png)

Doooooommmmm ceeeeeennnnnnaaaaa!
OK, I just watched the trailer. Nope.
These stopped being car movies and became superhero movies a long, long time ago. Not saying it's a bad thing, just that we have to stop judging them as car movies.
In reply to Keith Tanner :
Superhero/action movies with a dose of interesting cars. At face value, they're a fun watch.
Also, dang, the franchise is now 20 years old.
In reply to Mndsm :
Probably as good a time as any to leave us with this gem.

Did you guys see the part where the car flies through the air like Tarzan on a rope? This is where I completely lost it

Thank you. For the best lunch break I've ever had.

But we can all agree that a return to the first movie story plot would be great, right?
In reply to Vajingo :
Haha, glad to help. That clips kills me every time.
Well, Lucas Black quit NCIS to sign on to F9, so we'll see how that plays out.
Honestly, the last F&F movie I saw was 2 Fast 2 Furious because at the time I worked for Year One. They supplied a crap ton of parts for the movie clone muscle cars, plus our Marketing guy Pat slapped YO stickers on anything that moved. I think I counted over two minutes of Year One logo screen time in the movie. Haven't seen a F&F movie since.

TORETTOOOOOOOOO!!!
I don't think I've seen the previous two or three. Do I need to watch them to understand the plot of this one?

Must protect my Family from my... Family?
This is the F&F equivalent of dividing by zero.
I love this trash.
Hey, as long as Jordana Brewster keeps coming back at least there's something worth watching.
But man, that trailer is for a film that jumped a whole aquarium full of sharks.
In reply to Mr_Asa :
I doubt it. These aren't exactly what I'd call "plot heavy" films.
