filmlover Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Should be about $65-70M for the weekend, same as the last one during the pandemic recovery. Overall not too shabby for such a long-running series, but definitely a sign it's time to wrap it up before the law of diminishing returns officially kicks in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXtacy Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 If it follows Fast 9 then this hits 63m If it follows Fast 8 then this hits 57m If it follows Fast 7 then this hits 59m So lets put the range for the weekend as 57-63m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're great. They aren't pretending to be something they aren't like so many other franchises who do pretend to be some kind of high art and fail at every turn.

Imagine saying in 2005 The Fast and the Furious would have its 11th movie released two decades later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I thought the first Fast film was fine but was so bored during the second one I never watched any more of them. This opening is just “ok I suppose”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is first Fast film with normal FRI in a while. 7 & 8 were holidays while 9th was Summer. SAT bump should be there unless franchise is somehow FRI heavy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people complain about Fast & Furious franchise all the time. But as someone mentioned, Universal don't give us 4-6 Fast & Furious Content per year. And trust me, from a fan of franchise which gets major apathy & criticism from internet, MCU has faced absolutely Nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you really connect the different MCU series if they were from different studios? Would really associate Ant-Man with Black Panther or Shang Chi or Winter Soldier? No you wouldn't.

Jonwo Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I wonder if Universal will just let Vin direct the last one. I get the feeling he's not easy to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I still gave FAST X a chance despite the reviews, but yes, it is the worst film I've seen so far this year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmscholar Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 13 hours ago, Grebacio said: I knew that Fast 7 and 8 were big, but I wasn't following box office pre 2014 and damn, both Furious 5 and 6 had bigger OW that I expected Even though Fast 1 and 2 Fast both did very good numbers. "Tokyo Drift" was considered a box office let down at the time even though to me it was a smaller side film and we all thought it was a spin off before then incorporated into the main series. Anyways, Fast 4 got the franchise back to it's normal numbers and then "Fast 5" is when it really exploded to me. So 5, 6, 7, 8 ended up all did very solid numbers overall. "F9"had the Pandemic and still pulled over 700. "Hobbs and Shaw" did over 750 Worldwide. But it looking like "Fast 7" will remain the biggest one. "Fast 8" also did gangbusters looking back.
