FIRST TIME WATCHING: Furious 7

Thank you for introducing this series to me.

did something happen to fast & furious 6 just asking?

The whole family thing is memed a lot, but without fail everyone gets sucked into the emotion of it. Especially because you realise before long that the whole family aspect refers to the cast as much as the characters.

5-7 had a real great groove going. Other than the first one I really like these 3 the most. I do hope you carry on though just to see you react to all the crazy moments and to SEE THE FAMILY

Han’s name being “Han Seoul-Oh” (solo) 😭 too much

I remember exactly where I was when I first read the news of Paul Walker ☹️ crazy how things feel so much more real when it’s someone you grew up watching. The movie was pushed a full year after the accident, and the atmosphere was somber but felt very respectful to Paul

It never fails to impress me how James Wan came into this franchise for what turned out to be one of the most troubled Hollywood productions in recent memory, and came out with one of the best action blockbusters of the decade, and arguably the peak of the series. He doesn’t get enough credit imo. Unfortunately the series is never even close to this good again, but there is still fun to be had. Justin Lin even returned to direct the (imo) underrated F9, which is nice to see.

So now you know. What's The Fast And The Furious series about? Family. On and off the screen. They were, and still are family.

Scenes with Paul Walker's brother ...Brian puts his son in the back seat of a minivan. Brian is looking at a computer, with Mia (Jordana Brewster) comforting him. Brian shares an embrace with Mia. The family, including Brian, looking out over Los Angeles, pondering their next move. Driving a car while Dom (Vin Diesel) tends to a wounded Mr. Nobody (Kurt Russell). Sitting at the pool with Dom, Brian smiles. Being rocked around as a passenger in a car chase with Dom driving. After being tossed from a car and shot at, Walker holds up what looks to be a computer hard drive.

Can't remember the last time I cried but the tribute took me out the second time

I am a pretty unemotional guy. I can't even remember the last time i cried for something in my personal life, but this ending/tribute broke me when i first saw it. And it still does.

I love that you predicted future plots 15 minutes into your very first FF reaction(fast driving thiefs hired to catch fast driving criminals).

Please watch Running Scared if you can, Paul Walkers performance in that is top tier

A couple fun facts: The phone conversation between Mia and Brian towards the end of the movie was particularly hard for Jordana Brewster to film. Paul had already filmed his scenes and Jordana had to do hers after his passing while hearing his voice on the other end. Also, "Mr. Nobody" was going to end of being Brian's father, but they had to scrap that storyline after he passed.

It's kind of funny that Nat is so stuck on Hobbs calling every ladies in the movie, woman. But she's calling all of them bitch here and there xD It made me chuckle!

are you going to watch arcane season 2 when it releases in a few days? :D <3

Yep many scenes, even early were Paul Walker's brothers with a full CG Paul Walker head replacement, including back at the house, when Brian was putting little Jack in the car seat and the bomb went off. And when they jumped out of the hypercar and the shots held like they were going to get shot, that wasn't Paul either.

I would definitely finish the franchise but then I like all of these movies anyway - good popcorn fun. There's only 3 left before the "final" one comes out - 2026 I think. I would also include the spin-off Hobbs and Shaw. That's also fun.

This is my favourite movie along side Fast five. So glad this series was chosen. Look forward to the next one technically only 3 movies left if you discount Hobbs and Shaw so over the hump.

Natalie is all of us. While I agree that this was pretty much the high water mark of the franchise, I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss what comes after. There are important stories still to be told, twists and bends, and spoilers I won't share. There's also a whole lot of stupid ridiculous nonsense, but is there any reason that can't be fun too?

It still gets me everytime when that song at the end starts playing and they show clips of Paul Walker.

As a car enthusiast and fan of this franchise, this movie marked the end for me. What they accomplished here, while losing one of the main characters was truly impressive and took a ton a creativity that they deserve credit for. From here on out, it was just a cash grab, sadly.

This was the last one I watched, and it was still pretty meh for me. It was a nice send off for Paul Walker, though. I think it would be kind of fun to do this type of movie marathon for other franchises, too. Like the Bourne series or Rocky/Creed, or even better: Mission Impossible! Think about it :)

For Paul got me.. :'(

Loki Season 2!! Agatha All Along!! I understand skipping the bad MCU shows but ur missing the good ones nat 😖

End it now! 7 was the perfect ending for this franchise!

Rondy rousey she was in ufc then went to wwe

Well be ready to come back down to earth with the next two, unfortunately

They did a great send-off for Paul. Can't wait to watch this with you!

Love the content, as always. What a fun journey this franchise has been so far. Would you ever consider watching Over the Garden Wall? It’s one season and it fits the fall vibes perfectly.

For me this was the last one I could enjoy - The previous ones were all dumb but enjoyable but from here on they just became too ridiculous and lost all enjoyment imo :D

Before we get into the facts, I just wanna provide a heads-up. Fate of the Furious and F9: The Fast Saga have extended editions respectively running 12 minutes and 7 minutes longer. 1.) Tyrese Gibson was longtime friends with Paul Walker. After hearing about the accident, he went to pay his respects at the crash site in Santa Clarita where people had set up a memorial for Paul. 2.) A little over a year ago, Tyrese reunited with Paul's Nissan Skyline from 2 Fast 2 Furious and hugged it. Seeing the old sports car brought back fond memories of his time with Paul. He felt the presence of his friend and brother was with him as well as with the car. Here’s the link to the reunion if you’d like to see: https://youtu.be/Zn54Mlmx0XY?si=XjiYmK8CyE7LO3LA 3.) In case you don’t know who portrays Mando, that’s none other than the King of Bachata himself Romeo Santos. I grew up listening to Aventura since 2005. They did exactly what their second studio album said and broke the rules of bachata by implementing other genres like rock and hip-hop. After Aventura disbanded, Romeo went on to make five solo albums. One of them called Utopia actually has Romeo reunite with his bandmates for the closing song called Inmortal. Romeo and Aventura changed the game and paved the way for other musicians to enter the bachata spotlight. One of the more notable ones to this day is Prince Royce. He started out by doing a bilingual cover of the late Ben E. King’s Stand By Me back in 2009. They even got to perform the song together for Premios Juventud on Univisión. Here’s a link to the performance as well. https://youtu.be/GOe8cpyjgWw?si=oKYLprGcohYYrMIq Royce (that’s his middle name by the way; his full name is Geoffrey Royce Rojas) contributed to this movie’s soundtrack with a song called My Angel. It played when Ramsey walked out of the water. 4.) This movie had some of the best fight choreo in the franchise along with 5 and 6. Of course I loved seeing Dom and Deckard one-on-one, but I also gotta give props to Brian vs. Kiet (Mose Jakande’s right hand.) His actor Tony Jaa has an extensive fighting background which includes but isn’t limited to Muay Boran, Tae Kwon Do, and Krabi-Krabong. Tony had already appeared in several films before this one, but this is his Hollywood debut. 5.) By the way, my favorite funny moments were Brian and Kiet realizing the bus was headed for a cliff before bolting for the door and both of them saying too slow to each other. I also laughed at Tej going “you can’t touch this” and pulling the window up. (It actually took me a while to realize that T-Pain was at the party.) 6.) And finally, this movie was the last big budget production to feature the original 6th street viaduct. Sometime after filming wrapped up, the Los Angeles City Council ordered to have the bridge demolished since it was gradually cracking. It took them six years due to several delays including the pandemic, but they finally opened a new bridge about two years ago.

what a pleasant surprise thought we would get this later in the week, but I'm here for it!

Happy Monday Nat. Hope you had a good weekend. This Furious does indeed pack a punch at the end 😭 I went to see The Wild Robot at the weekend and absolutely loved it. I can't wait to watch your reaction when it hits digital here in a few weeks 😊 I said it last week, but I'm going to say it again anyway. Watching these movies with you is so much fun Nat. You just bring another level to the chaos 😄 I forgot how powerful the ending montage was, especially after we have whisked our way through the 20 years with you here in a matter of weeks 😥 Thanks for watching this movie series on your channel Nat. I hope you'll continue right to the end, and you'll also catch Hobbs and Shaw too as it's just as much fun 💛

After how much crying there was in 6 I knew this one would wreck lol
