Shablagoo 05/25/21 8:06:03 PM #3:	Theyre big, dumb, Michael Bay-style explosion flicks. I havent seen any since like the 3rd one but what I hear about the latest ones actually kind of intrigues me. It sounds like they ran out of ideas for street racing plots so now they just are throwing random crazy ass sci-fi shit in there, lol. --- "If you wanna grow your business you need to exploit more." ~Austin_Era_II "Out of those two?

Phantom36 05/25/21 8:12:51 PM #7:	Forget plot and acting. The point is YOU are Dominick Toretto, living as he does vicariously through Vin Diesel's portrayal. It's entirely meant for you as a viewer to put yourself in the character's shoes and say, "This is badass, I want this to be me!"

loafy013 05/25/21 8:21:13 PM #10:	Shablagoo posted... Theyre big, dumb, Michael Bay-style explosion flicks Huge difference though. Michael Bay thinks critics of his movies are idiots and don't understand the nuances of what he is trying to achieve. Because, as you know, giant fighting robots is symbolic of blah, blah, blah. F&F revels in being mindless action. The director knows it, the writer knows it, the actors know it, and the audience knows it. It is a big joke that everybody is in on. Everybody owns it and nobody pretends it is more than a crazy action movie that keeps trying to outdo itself. That makes it fun all the way around. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.

DespondentDeity 05/25/21 8:30:40 PM #11:	The shit when they drove the car back and forth between buildings in Dubai was awesome. Also magnets and Luke Evans car that could flip shit was so tight. all the stunt and effect work is really crafted with a ton of love and ass loads of money that Im hella glad someone decides to spend on making goofy shit like this.
