aabattery Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 This was the peak of the franchise: We should've known it could only go down from that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somebody85 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 "The plot twists suggest the kind of games that 11-year-old boys put together on the playground during recess, with women in peril and so many different parts for everyone to play that you begin to lose track of who everybody is." Well that's what the trailers looked like! If that's the worst that can be said about it then I'm excited. Sounds like a lot of dumb fun again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Reception for this is definitely looking to be more mixed than the last few movies in the franchise. I'll still see it either way, these movies are such guilty pleasures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somebody85 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Still way early on RT but I thought this was going to be trashed so hard by critics. Really surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drdungbeetle Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Obviously this movie needed to recast Paul Walker's character! And I know just the actor to do it! A man who drives the big steamers across our great land! An actor who is a real American Hero.... SYLVESTER STALLONE!!!!!! He would make a GREAT Paul Walker's character actor! He even looks kinda like Paul Walker! Instant over 1.5 bil worldwide if STALLONE joins the cast, he's even free of the Expendables and can do it now! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one by far looks the most ridiculous from trailers. Always thought 7 kind of got a pass due to how they handled Paul Walkers passing. This one didn't have that going for it. Figured critics would say it's time for this series to end. Glad to hear it delivers what the trailer promises. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrathOfHan Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 (edited) I don't see it getting much higher than a 2.4x similar to the past few entries. Best case scenario is probably 120/290, which is pretty damn great Edited April 10, 2017 by WrathOfHan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Heatnix Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 What's the budget for this movie? FF7 had something like 250 million. Considering that every FF movie gets more expensive than the previous one ( this one seems to get a submarine too, lol ), I guess this should be the most expensive one.

My integra had a full fiberglass bodykit complete with white mesh, front strobe lights (why?!), green underlights and white rims lol. Looking back it's cheesy as hell but it nailed the "Hot Import Nights" feel of the car scene at the time.

Much, much less, in all likelihood. Keep in mind that Walker's death led to close to the entire film getting reshot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
