Fast & Furious 7 (Slight Spoiler)

So i watched Fast & Furious 7 over the long weekend. I did love it and maybe even shed a tear at the end

The last car you see Paul in is a Supra and though you could not see the wheels very i could have sworn they were BBS LM's. ?

I have a set of LM reps on mine so it was a nice surprise to an already beautiful end to the film

Such a brilliant film! The tribute was amazing, and how they tailored it in there. What a nice way to end it...

Was definitely sad to see the end of an era - I highly doubt they will make another one. Tribute to Paul was touching, dem feelz

I knewww it! I was trying to convince my misses & my mate after the film the car had LM's who eventually agreed just to shut me up!

Also love the fact they gave Paul the GTR too at one point.

Love the films too. Tokyo drift was a bit questiioable and some of the stunts in the recent films are getting a bit silly / outrageous / unbelievable though.

Apparently Fast and Furious is now a such big franchise for Universal Studios that there could be more films to come. It's sort of an Ocean's 11 type film but with a car theme in my eyes.

It's possible given the send off to Paul at the end and therefore the gang resuming for the next adventure minus Brian is workable. Hope so.

I haven't seen the film at the cinema, but just watched the ending part with PW leaving.
Fuck I was pretty much crying. Would have been if I was in the cinema.

Personally I think they should leave it there. It's a fitting tribute to PW that they don't carry on without him, especially as he was pretty much the main character in the 1st one etc.

Agree with everyone here, movie was done very well considering the circumstances. I loved that the actors basically got to say their goodbyes onscreen at the end. You just had to love PW's character through all of the films, which made it even harder to watch the end knowing hes really gone. Damn shame, I would only see another one if PW's real life daughter took over his main role. Not sure how they lay out that storyline, but only way it would seem right for me. She could drive an M3...

But the tribute was pure class, welled up, what a guy, RIP pal, there will be another one surely, Jason is still alive..

I would be very surprised if they didn't make another FF film. The franchise is one of the longest running out there, from a financial perspective im sure Universal will make another. Whether they release one in a couple of years or wait until say 2020 is a another question all together.

Saw the film on release date - and really didn't think that much of it.

Its always been a bit unrealistic - but i think the abu dhabi bit hit new heights of that!

Tribute was really well done tho... was subtle, but brilliant.

F&F 8 is being made set in New York, should be out in 2017 as will shoot later this yr early next.

I might be being a bit slow as its Monday but I take it they had already filmed his scenes before he died or have they somehow made a computerised version of PW for the rest of the film?

They used bits from old films, the back shots were his brothers and the rest was CGI.

I must admit, another 60 seconds of the tribute and I'd be balling my eyes out. Soon as the tribute started had a lump in my throat.

I've literally just got back from the cinema having seen this, and I've been a fan since the first one and I thought this was just perfect. Yes the stunts are completely unrealistic, but in my opinion that's part of the fun. They got the ending just right.

Of course it's going to be unrealistic guys....it's an action movie.....just like Batman or Superman!!!

In the first one, they were shifting down gears at top speed and the car went faster!!!....lol
