cheesypoofs Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 They should title the movie Fast and Furi8. You know.. To keep with the theme of each movie having a different naming convention than the last.6 and 7 were both "Furious #" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 "'Furious 8' Is Reportedly Close to Letting Vin Diesel Sit in the Director's Chair" Saw that headline on twitter and I can't tell you how crushed I was when I found out it was just clickbait 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Diesel probably wants Justin Lin to direct this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan Hunt Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I honestly would be curious of what Diesel could pull of as a director Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAtGender Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I honestly would be curious of what Diesel could pull of as a director He directed the Los Bandoleros short film, which can be seen on the FF4 DVD. It could be close to the tone they want, if they desire scaling things back a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesypoofs Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 6 was "Fast & Furious 6" while 7 was "Furious 7".That's how they advertised it. When you watch the movie it says Furious 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't going to hire Diesel who only directed a 20 minute short film, with barely any dialogue and zero action, to direct a blockbuster.

kowhite Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) Diesel probably wants Justin Lin to direct this. It's nice to want things. I'd like 50 million dollars. And infinite gold membership. The latter...Tele...make it happen. On that note...why am I not gold. I think I'm donating...aren't I? I want to see the receipts.

Mojoguy Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 It's nice to want things. Diesel being the lead actor can actually make them delay Fast 8 a year until Lin is done with Trek. There is no rush to make this movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no rush to make this movie. You are probably correct. While yes, Uni is probably slobbering over this movie...they've got to play it right. And if I have any say, that means... Make a Riddick movie in the meantime? Yes, I'm that guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yandereprime101189 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 They'll be making a decision soon enough In the meantime, the 7th film has already made $52 million in Blu/DVD and Digital sales. http://www.comingsoon.net/dvd/news/616469-furious-7-home-release#/slide/1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoguy Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Universal better be careful and not run this franchise to the ground. Whether this movie comes out in 3 or 2 years, they shoulnd't rush out a bad product which would hurt all future films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokai Red Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 That's how they advertised it. When you watch the movie it says Furious 6 Well in that case, 7 says "Furious Seven," which still is a different naming convention than the others. But did you really have to argue me over it? It's just a small piece of trivia. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been a fan since the first one and have seen all in theaters since the 4th, and while I agree that they shouldn't run it into the ground, I do hope 8 wraps everything up. I thought 7 was a great ending, but I can understand one more to tie up all the loose ends. I just don't think they should make too many without Paul.
