Jake Gittes Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Diesel really is out of control if that shit is true. I've been enjoying the hell out of these movies but they need to shut that nonsense down if they don't want them to become unbearable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 2 hours 40 minutes is too long, I know Fast and Furious is a cash cow for Universal and Diesel but surely someone has to say it's too long and make necessary cuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franfar Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Long Range Forecast: ‘The Fate of the Furious’ http://pro.boxoffice.com/long-range-forecast-fate-furious/ Quote This week’s edition of the Long Range Forecast marks the addition of the highly anticipated eighth Fast & Furious film, The Fate of the Furious. After so many episodes, there’s some degree of predictability to the performance of a given franchise. The tragic and untimely passing of Paul Walker changed the status quo with 2015’s Furious 7, which greatly eclipsed the series’ predecessors and went on to earn $353 million domestically — a 48 percent spike above the previous top earner, Fast & Furious 6 ($239 million). It capped that success by earning a staggering $1.52 billion globally, which currently stands as the sixth highest of any film in history. The writers and producers have introduced an intriguing turn of events in this eighth film by turning Vin Diesel’s Dom Toretto under the influence of Charlize Theron’s (apparent) new main villain. With director F. Gary Gray (Straight Outta Compton, The Italian Job) directing, we can probably expect another healthy dose of action set pieces supported by the kind of family-themed drama the series has built its foundation on. Reactions to the film’s first trailer have been mostly positive across social media channels. That being said, and with all sincere respect to Mr. Walker and his family, the cold reality of analysis suggests Furious7’s performance won’t be repeatable. That film drew a significant amount of interest outside the core Fast fan base from casual audiences because it was Walker’s final film, and the writers were able to harness the real life tragedy in a way that ended the story of his character in an incredibly tasteful, emotional, and well-received way. As a result (and because he was technically the series’ leading protagonist from the outset), the seventh film felt to many like the end of several key story arcs, and arguably could have served as an appropriate end to the series. Fate of the Furious ultimately deserves to be judged on its own merits, though. There is still an incredible (and expanding) ensemble cast driving this franchise, and it’s more than possible that blockbuster numbers will be attainable given Universal’s plans for two more installments already in place (indicating new story arcs will drive these next three films). Global revenues should again challenge for the $1 billion+ mark. At this time, though, we’re expecting Fate to mark the first film-to-film domestic box office decline the series has experienced since Tokyo Drift eleven years ago — but it will also undoubtedly be one of the biggest performers of 2017’s first half.

Dragon Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) 2 people who saw the test screening didn't complain about the time so I don't think it's that long. Unless it's one of those long movies that goes quickly Edited February 22, 2017 by Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattW Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I wouldn't be surprised if this one opened under $100m, and seeing that run time makes it more likely. I'd still put the odds a just over 100, but maybe 105 now instead of 115+ that I was feeling for the last few months. 7 had a 2.4 multi, 8 will at best match that, probably 2.2-2.3 = 240 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin Feng Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 After xXx and RE6 have made massive debut in China, I start to think maybe it would make $150m OW in China. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Furious 7 only broke out so much because of poor Paul Walkers death. That'll be proven with the drop in US opening weekend. Very sad, but true. Sure, China will still go crazy for it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
