Fast and the Furious 9: The Fast Saga

[MadVillainy]

No joke I actually don't get the hate for 2 Fast in the grand scheme of the Fast Saga. I think it's one of the most fun entries.
Probably my 2nd favorite after Fast Five

 

[Drizzle]

2 Fast 2 Furious is one of the greatest movies of all time

It has one of the greatest titles of all time, I'll give it that.

 

[Silvermoth]

Perfect fit, Momoa will rock at this

Im still mad they didn't call the 4th movie: 4 the Fast and the Furious

 

[Dr. Evil]

The family is getting bigger! Mahalo!

He'll be both, which is what they should have done with John Cena

 

[samsnee]

Meh. I doubt he’ll play a real villain. Just another antagonist who joins Vin’s side at the end

 

[Iceman]

I’m not quite up to date. Has any of the cast left the series or are they all up for potential returns in the future? Love seeing all these characters thrown together.

 

[kguillou]

Mamoa fits this series perfectly and good be just the ingredient they need to give this series some adrenaline.

The Rock and Jason Statham have left. Neither want to come back to the family.

 

[Kane52630]

They're gonna totally make Mamoa somehow related to Hobbs since Rock rejected Vin.

They don't want to live their lives a quarter mile at a time

Thanks for the info. Sort of had an idea about The Rock (which is a big shame) but didn’t know about Statham.

 

[The Caped Knight]

OMG!!!!

I don’t think Statham has left.

I mean, he was even in the after credits of F9.

Yeah I was gonna say Statham didn't leave.
I think Hobbs and Shaw isn't getting a sequel so they threw Statham/Shaw back into the main series fold

 

[Iceman]

Nice. Hope that is the case.

 

[Dr. Evil]

I wouldn't know about the after credits to F9 because I left after F7.

 

[kguillou]

The series shouldve ended at 7, that was the perfect “The End,” to the whole saga but, you know, 1.5 Billion at the box office probably persuaded Universal to run it into the ground.

 

[Prison Mike]

Yeah F7 was the perfect ending. Damn you F8 for killing off my Elena!

 

[chamber-music]

I still find it funny Statham dislikes superhero stuff yet stars in movies like this which are more over the top than some superhero films. Plus Idris Elba's bad guy in Hobbs and Shaw was a super soldier villain

To my knowledge he didn't say he didn't like superhero stuff. He didn't say that they are too over the top.

What he says specifically the action in them, and a lot of modern action movies, rely too much on stunt doubles, green screen, etc. and that "anyone" can do the action in them.


Fast and Furious, while having a lot of green screen and CGI (especially Hobbs and Shaw...Jesus christ the CGI in Hobbs and Shaw) and using stunt doubles, still relies more on practical work and actors doing their own stunts than your standard MCU movie. I mean you can tell how practical a lot of the stunt stuff is. And Jason Statham clearly himself really does a lot of his own fight scenes and stunts. Too him that's what he appreciates. The Fast franchise allows more stunt work and practical effects. Marvel might not even allow their actors to do that stuff even if they wanted to.

On another note: It's time for a stunt award at the Oscars

This, definitely this. Should have had one *decades* ago. I wonder why they didn't?

 

[Gold Samurai]

I'm not saying there shouldn't be an award but don't they have their own stunt awards show?
