Furious 7

[Velorath]

I don't think you need to turn your brain off because they never attempt to engage with it.

The thing that really amused me in it is why the jason statham character wanted that surveillance system at all. If you can find out where people are going to be far enough in advance to realize they are jumping out of a plane with GPS parachutes to land on a specific road in the middle of nowhere in enough time to make a specialty car to just flat drive there you probably don't need this technology.

[Velorath]

At the risk of seeming like I take the plot seriously, Statham didn't want the God's Eye he was just partnering with the other bad guy because of their mutual enemies.

Whenever I feel my slow, purposeless life marching on towards death, I stop and remember that Vin Diesel is a big movie star so anything is possible.

Vin Diesel had the nerd cred.

Badass Trailer ending with "rated PG-13" is a bit 

Bit older, but fitting:

The Onion Interviews The Screenwriter Of "Fast Five

oh crap, my sides...

What makes it even funnier is that after the first movie any little kid with matchbox cars could have came up with the stories.

[Furiously]

And $800 Million dollars pretty much guarantees we will be seeing these until our lives end. I think we have a new James Bond franchise.

Just saw this with the missus - we'd both seen F&F and I'd hung around until #3. Having said that, it was a hell of a lot of fun, lots of entertainment that I didn't have to think about, fantastic stunts and so on. Just a decent film that entertained - and TBH, I liked that.

Kudos to the ending, really tasteful in terms of how they handled it - not over the top or anything and I can't help but wonder if Diesel wrote the final monologue.

I might go back and watch 4, 5 and 6 to fill in the blanks.

[Ghambit]

For such a mindless action flick, there were actually some pretty classy touches I thought. 
Oddly, there is actual art to this film.  And yah, I choked up pretty bad at the end.  I'd say half the theatre I was in was crying.  Really great ending.  They deserve whatever they end up making for taking actual risks in moviemaking and giving the middle-finger to hollywood.  That's ultimately why people like these films I think.

[Ghambit]

Totally forgot about that.  The last movie was kinda forgettable, though I liked it enough.  I've been running around thinking either they just didn't care about Tokyo Drift or somehow Han survived.

Four is good, I think five is the best of the bunch. I consider it their ode to Ocean's 11.

[Abagadro]

Ya, Five is definitely my favorite. This one was totally ridiculous and made absolutely no sense but I loved it anyways.

Furious 8 announced for April 2017.  Like that is a surprise.
