Word on the street is it's the worst of the franchise


Even fans in other countries are saying this, not just critics.

Possible flop incoming?

7 was bad and 8 was so ridiculous it may as well have been a Transformers movie. And I don't know what they're doing, but the previews for this look terrible and the previews for the same movie pre-pandemic looked awesome. It's being marketed like total ass. They went from over-the-top radical straight into cartoon country. It's interesting that the foreign markets are saying it stinks cause they're the ones usually pushing these movies into the billion dollar range. If THEY don't like, it's a real turkey. The numbers stateside will be disappointing and it will get written off as because of the slow theater market post pandemic. But despite Vin's grumbling, Rock is definitely gonna have a big part in the final installment. Cause Rock brings the money.

yep esp after Hobbs/Shaw brought in nearly 800m on the strength of Rock alone,so he will be a MAJOR player in the finale. probably overshadowing Vin with more screen time/plot lol

reply

If it's really gonna be one huge movie split into two movies, they should definitely fill the first half with all Rock action. Blow that up. Then they can leave him out of the second one so Vin can have his core family go out in style like it all started, but everybody will still show up just to see how it ends. That's how you play that.

Hey now, don't discount the popularity of Jason Statham. They brought him into the franchise in the first place for a reason.

I thought 7 was one of the best. 8 was one of the worst, but not as bad as Tokyo Drift.

reply

WTF? Tokyo Drift is awesome!

In my opinion, the only good ones are 1, 3, 5. The rest have their moments bit aren't actually very good movies.

4 is the worst, easily. Fuck that movie.

reply

Ok, I'll give you that 4 was the worst. I saw that one in theaters and remember it being incredibly boring.

Did you know that Megan Fox goes out and has sex every day while you lock yourself in your room.

reply

Who said anything about Megan Fox?

reply

So she can't even get you to leave your room. I would say you have already missed your turn anyway.

reply

I'm sorry you're so stupid. I can't help you.

Is megan fox offering sex to OP? Why else would he leave his room for her.
