I saw the last one on a date, actually the only date I've ever been on.

It's not a good movie if you enjoys guns, or cars realistically. But it's an action movie and good entertainment for $10 if you sneak in some candy or a soda to the movies.

It's like a Mexican soap opera with action. Don't forget Dodge Demon.

21-39 man, likes driving and action movies. He expects explosions and very fast/bizarre cars. Doesn't care about muh mad driving skillz, just want to go after his work to cinema, turn off his brain, have cars, hot women and almost no plot to think about.

honestly i'm not sure who they are actually targeting
on one hand these are a stupid, stupid movies for complete retards
on the other it's a secretly genius - since 4 they clearly started not giving any fuck and just had fun with it while making it as ridiclous and shit as possible to the point, as /tv/ would put it, it's actually kino
and it's not even unintentionally - you can see subtle hints at places

i genuinely recommend later F&F movies, i can't remember the last time i laughed so much when watching a movie
didn't watch fate yet, but i bet it's the same

I used to never understand how shit like this would happen until I was around normal people more man they get hyped up just because an actor is in a movie and they force themselves to like it or theyll go see a movie because omg so hawt

so in general they are targeting 16-35 year old casuals who just want to see pretty people and stuff blowing up

This.

Although I got fired and can't afford weed currently so I'll probably save this one until I have a job or someone asks me to bake it up with them.

I went and saw it with my mom since it's good cheesy fun. Wake motorcycle police chase videos on YouTube it's just something to sit down with a bowl of popcorn and turn your brain off for.

I liked it, come at me. They're self-aware about how fucking stupid the movies are and they clearly have fun filming them. The action is over the top just right. They made it pretty clear in the first one that none of the technical aspects would be accurate so if you're still expecting that, it's on you.

I would guess they are targeting people who pay money to watch movies . It's a bold move, for sure, but seems to have paid off.

If only they made a AE86 circle jerk movie aimed only at weaboos like you, shit they'd be rolling in the $$$

i didnt like this one, there wasnt enough cars. in the earlier ones you could pay attention to the background and spot cool cars.

my favorite is tokyo drift anyway, its the one thats mostly about cars.

I'm an 18 year old Australian with a JDM car. I've literally got dozens of friends who are 18-20 and either have a JDM car or really want one.

We all went to watch Fast and Furious on opening night.

So yeah, I guess we're the target audience. Either that, or 13-15 year old boys who have pictures of R34s as their cover photo on facebook.

This. First movie is best movie. Followed by the second then the third. The rest are just generic action movies that happen to have cars in them.

>>17031755
I gave tokyo drift like 20 minutes after all the shilling about it being the only one about street racing before I had to turn it off.
It's not like I don't like stupid fucking movies but it's just so bad.
>>
>>17034875
The only thing bad about it is the 30 year old man pretending to be in high school. If they'd gotten a better actor it wouldn't been better.
>>
>>17034875

lol tokyo drift was my favorite out of all of them. it felt the most true to car culture at the time it was produced.
>>
>>17034918
And the dude from Home improvement that was also a "high schooler" even though he was like 35 lol.
>>
>>17031719
The first one was a genuinely fun movie, it was campy, had races, and was one of those movies where you just turn your brain off and have fun.

The second one wasn't as fun desu, but was still really quotable and a fun buddy cop style movie.

The third one actually had the most racing and was enjoyable in a different way.

Everything after that was just your generic action movie that had hot actors and explosions with some cars sprinkled here and there, and they just weren't as memorable.

BUT because they have hot actors and explosions and exotic cars, people want to go watch it. First one was targeting young teenagers who were into the car modding scene, but they realized if they target a bigger audience they make more money so it turned into a generic blockbuster.

Not an issue when the movie was still all about the cars.

As a friend of mine said some time ago, cars in recent F&F movies are nothing more than "things that kinda explode".

Just watched a cam rip of Rapidos y Furiosos 8 from some spanish speaking country (with english audio). It's amazing how much the audience got into the movie, they were clapping and cheering at various points

>>17038432
I haven't seen the movie, not planning on it, I don't like the movies. But, I heard the plotline was that it is a turbo off of a diesel boat.

I do know that the turbo is fake on the movie car which is a bit stupid because it wouldn't have been much if any more work to put a real turbo on there and run it with an open downpipe. It may have been less work to put a real turbo on it than to make a fake one.

>Are they legally allowed to do this?
Then don't buy a movie ticket if you insist on breaking the rules. It's clearly legal for them to have a rule of no outside food and drink items. So when you sneak that in, you are breaking the rules.

There are any number of products and services which are covered by "shrink wrap" type laws for merchantile convenience. Thus, you don't see the entire agreement included with the physical product but must look up the implied contract with that product.

>>17034875

That's how I felt about it too. I loved the car scenes and the races, but I've watched pornos with a more believable plot, I wasn't able to sympathize with the main character at all, and the acting was terrible. Maybe I can just find a cut of all the races and none of the in between shitty stuff.

IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MOVIE ITSELF! IT WAS GREAT TIMING.

Think about it. It was released this past week.
In most countries, Good Friday is celebrated.
Some countries even have holiday on the Thursday as well.
It's spring break almost everywhere in the world.

And to top it off. There was no other worthy movie on the cinema. Nothing at all.
You guys forget there are people that go to the movies without having any movie in mind. They go to the movies and then just choose from whatever its showing.

Also, I credit them with great socialmedia marketing, really good.
I subscribe to some car youtubers and they got a few of those to do marketing for them.
Jay Leno, Mighty Car Mods. Really clever marketing.

You need a believable proof or whatever the fuck it's called in order to check people's belongings, you can't just check all the people who come into a theater.

Reasonable suspicion?

This is the same concept as DUI checkpoints. You're somehow legally obligated to stop and consent to a police interrogation, simply because you happen to be traveling along a certain stretch of road at a specific time of night. Unconstitutional? You be the judge.
