Han dies ? and yet he is in Fast 4 and 5? - The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006) Discussion

4 & 5 take place before this movie. Hence why Han is still alive.

Whats the point of a signature?

reply

Whhhyyy? Why did they make a movie that takes place way off in the future?

reply

They didn't think the original actors would ever come back to Fast and Furious when they were making Tokyo Drift. So they tried rebooting the story with new actors. But when everyone decided to return for the next movie, they tried tying it together with Han appearing in Fast and Furious.

I thought it went 4 then 3 then 5. Han may not have died...who knows this is the movie world. I thought this because in 4 when Dominic sends Han away he says he is going to Toyko. The story line makes sense if it went 4;3;5 and Han did not really die. After all Pettiest did not really die. I thought Han was suppose to be in the 6 movie too. Who knows.

The original order is The Fast and The Furious, 2 Fast 2 Furious, Fast and Furious, Fast Five, Fast Six, The Fast and The Furious:Tokyo Drift in which there is a post credits scene and it shows who killed Han.

Films 1,2,4,5 and 6 take place before 3, then 7 which is the next movie on the way.

Han has 3 prequel movies that show him when he was rolling with Dom's crew.

Tokyo Drift wasn't well received so I think the producers wanted to distance themselves from the film until it was time to tie everything in with Diesel's return to the franchise.

I think it was a rather smart move to make films 4-6 a prequel to Tokyo Drift. So in its own way it didn't ignore that film but kind of explains why Han ended up in Tokyo Drift and showing who was the one responsible for his death.

Jason Statham is revealed to be the one in the Mercedes that killed Han, he calls Dom and says "you dont know me, but you're about to"

The story line is as follows 125643 the reason is that in 4 han leaves the group for tokyo where he dies in 3 the reason 5&6 comes before 4 is because Han is part of the group domes girlfriend Letty dies in the 4th then 3 tokyo drift where Han dies.

SPOILERS

Tokyo Drift happens after Fast & Furious, Fast Five and Fast & Furious 6, from the ending of part 6 it seems like the reason Toretto is in Tokyo Drift at the end is to avenge Hans death as the Statham character is picking off those who killed his brother in Fast 6.
If Fast 1 taks place in 2001, Fast 4 is 2005 0r 06, Fast Five is 2007, Fast 6 is 2008 or 2009, than Tokyo Drift is in 2010 or 2011 and Fast 7 with be 2012 or 2013

Dom's crew should have been more careful if they had given more thought to Shaw having a brother, Dom is the only one he tells face to face but Dom should have warned his family to keep on watch for Shaw's brother as he might( and did) come after them for revenge.

Han's crash in TD also looked odd just atching it now as the white car that hit him did look to be waiting for him and did not stop once it hit Han's car. Seeing F&F 6 makes it obvious but just seeing it in TD does look "odd" as DK is just happy Han was delt with but the white car kept accelerating as if the driver did have intent to harm Han.

I doubt Justin Lin had it planned but it works out nicely to see that Han's death was more tragic then previously thought, but also sets up a potentially interesting sequel.

Agreed I just finished watching Tokyo Drift and was like Han death scene didn't seem right. I had to rewind it back DK didn't kill Han because he was in his car watching Han crash and die. Or maybe it was a set up to get Han on that street so they can kill him.

DK was trying to kill Han but it just so happened that Han died in an "accident" before DK could actually get to him. In Furious 6 we see that Han's "accident" was no accident at all. Statham's character was monitoring the police scanners, waiting to hear a report about Han's car out in the streets. When he did, he struck. I guess that's what happens when you live a life of crime like Han did... two unrelated people might be out trying to kill you on the same night!

I can't wait to see what happens in the next one. I wonder if they'll bring back Lucas Black, Bow Wow and a couple other characters.

I'm excited too. I wasn't much of a fan of Sean in Tokyo Drift but I didn't hate him either. I would be fine with them bringing him and some of the supporting characters back in order to fully connect the film universe.

You know i was really hoping that i wouldn't have to watch this piece of crap film. With the exception of Han and the 2 seconds that we see of Dom at the end it really sucks. But now that they have made it this way i guess i will have to watch this before F&F7. I watched 1 and 2 but when this one came out i refused to watch it, then when the originals came back for 4 i immediately watched that. I loved Han and not having seen this one i didn't know that he was destined to die. His death at the end of F&F6 really shocked me. I can't wait to see the new one but i guess first i'll have to suffer through every scene of this film that doesn't have Han in it. I mean having read what actually happens in it this film never should have been made, it is easily the worst in the series.

I wouldnt worry too much about watching this movie just because of those reasons haha. You wont lose much if you skip this.

If you check the crash scene in both films, you will see the same car crashing into han's car.

I saw Fast and Furious (I only saw the first one many years ago)the other day and wondered why that guy at the beginning wasn't at the end like those other 2 guys. Then I watched Tokyo Drift last night and there was a part when I realized Han might die. I was like 'NO!' and then he died. I guess that explains that.

[–] pic_gremma 7 years ago

They can say what ever they want, chronologically, Tokyo Drift was made #3 and Han dies, no comment is made as to how he is brought back to life. AND he dies in #7 again! Sorry, folks, we need an accounting as to his multiple deaths. This isn't Dallas (?)
