F&F 7/The Franchise

[Jim Jam]

So Fast Five was on the other night and it got me thinking about how i'm looking forward to Fast Seven but then i thought about the below question:
Just a question with the Death of Paul Walker recently - Does anybody think that the Franchise won't be as good as past films ? Especially with the ''Death'' of Han (In Tokyo Drift) but the introduction of (Spoiler Alert!) Jason Statham ?

Plus on a side note: what is your favourite F&F Film so far?

Gotta' be 2 Fast 2 Furious for me!

It's okay to enjoy those films, but to qualify them as "good".... That's the same as saying the Spice Girls made good music.

lol FF6 was the worst, with the 50 mile runway at the end and the Antonov that normally carries Heavy industry trains struggled with one more car attached it? Srs joke that film. but 7 was filmed at the same time as 6 iirc so it'll be a complete film with Walker, they just have to milk royalties out of 6 before they release it.

Okay if you replace the words ''as good as past films'' to ''up to the standards the Franchise has set already''
Is that a better way of phrasing it ? If so i'll adjust it - I personally like the films however the older ones are better than the newer ones!

No need to adjust anything, I was just voicing my opinion.

First one wasn't a bad concept. That's about it really.

Very similar to the 'Saw' films. Sort of got repetative

Cant rate them as the best films in the world, yet they are some sort of guilty pleasure for alot of people. Number 7 started filming just after 6 came out, was nearing completion before the death of Paul Walker. But they are looking at how to rewrite the script to have a dignified end to his character that wont be a tasteless car crash, and will possibly use his younger brother who by all accounts looks like him in those shots. Will be interesting to see how they manage it, but its pushed the release date from this year to next now.

You made a good point, my opinion went into the question, so it wasn't very objective - Was a very good spot! However I'll leave it be so the comments make sense to others.
