Fast 8

[Slushy]

While Dom turning on the team makes for an interesting plot, I'm sure we'll get a lame cop out like Letty surviving an explosion.

Have you seen her filmography? Charlize Theron might be an Academy Award winner and a highly respector thespian, but she has done plenty of stinkers. Every top actor does.

I guess your right but I have such disdain for this particular franchise and think she could at least pick a better one. But if she has to do bottom of thr barrel better this than Transformers.

I cannot believe Charlize Theron is in a Fast and Furious movie. How the mighty have fallen.

Have you ever watched the 2003 "The Italian Job" ?

Directed by the same director of Fast 8 and starring both Jason Statham and Charlize

She also did Snow White & The Huntsman, plus Huntsman: Winter War. Also Helen Mirren is here as well.

This was in an Instagram post from Dwayne Johnson earlier in the day:

"Shooting one big final additional scene for Hobbs and FAST & FURIOUS today. Bad ass Hobbs scene, so it'll be fun."

We were all probably sure, but Dwayne confirmed a Super Bowl spot on Instagram.

Makes sense. They've done one for every one since Fast and Furious.

Didn't look as good as the Fast 6 teaser. But clearly Dom flips back to the good side by the submarine finale.

 

[Lencho01]

Cool.

 

[Hunter Rider]

The part with Dom in the armor looks cool and the 2 moneyshot's in Icelasnd are awesome.

 

[Symbiotic]

Is it just me, or does Dom's armor, specifically the mask, look awfully similar to the masks worn by Jakande's men in 7? Wondering if there's a significance there.

It's possible but I think it's just the latest in tactical armor these days so it will become more common place in action movies and TV shows.

I don't know if he knows for a fact or if he's just speculating, but in a new interview with Yahoo Movies, Luke Evans states directly that Mirren is playing Mrs. Shaw.

 

[Lencho01]

Mama Shaw!

 

[Symbiotic]

Obviously early days, but boxoffice.com's domestic prediction is an opening weekend of $110 million with a final gross of $264 million. Worldwide could once again get close to the billion mark.

Oh snap, it's lit!

I could actually see her as a Thanos type character, pulling the strings over several movies before coming into her own soon and knocking everyone out

I don't mean to spam this thread, I just post whatever tidbits I think folks will be interested in knowing. But the MPAA rating is in. PG-13 for prolonged sequences of violence and destruction, suggestive content, and language.

I'm surprised we haven't gotten a second trailer by now. It comes out in less than two months.

Fast and Furious 8 supposedly 160 minutes long.

I hope this is false. Thats an absurd runtime for a F&F film. Id probably skip it and wait for UHD blu-ray.

Their source is from IMDB? come on man...

 

[jokesonm3]

S******* Ain't nobody got time for dat.

 

[terry78]

They trying to pull a Michael Bay.

Even a blind deaf and dumb squirrel finds a nut once in a while!

Seriously tho normally I disregard all IMDB rumors but this runtime does seem like the next step in the escalating scale of this franchise. They keep going bigger with each film. Both in stunts and runtime. Fast 5 and Furious 6 were 130 minutes. Fast 7 was 140 minutes. Fast and Furious 8 being 150 - 160 minutes isnt all that hard to believe.
