‘Fate of the Furious’ Races Toward Massive $380 Million-Plus Global Box Office Debut
Not bad for a series @hex called a flash in the pan
@hex is the man but he's Stephen A Smith status with his box office predictions. Said he didn't think Beauty and the Beast would make money
I'd rather see The Lost City of Z but that doesn't go wide until the 21st.

Five minutes to go on the fast track to familial fukkery! 
But but the last fast and furious only made money because of Paul Walker

I checked the tape. He said it may not flop but it was unproven and should not have been ranked #3 above Spider-man on the fandango most anticipated list.
Maybe I'll be proven wrong but I don't see the 6th spider-man movie in 15 years (even in the MCU ) posting better #s than BATB

I'm not going to write a full review because it's late as fukk and I'm tired as hell but this shyt right here is The Dark Knight Of fukkery. That's literally what popped into my head while watching it and I need you to understand that you look at superhero movies, and how TDK raised the bar for that, that's what this movie does for fukkery. This is a movie where in the opening scene Vin Diesel wins a street race by driving a shytty car on fire in reverse, and when it uncontrollably smashes over the edge of the water front, explodes and is launched higher into the air than those desert buggies in the super storm in Mad Max: Fury Road. This is a movie where an imprisoned The Rock doesn't just bench press, he presses a concrete bench that he just tore from the wall it was bolted to. He does this to show Jason Statham that his muscles are not just show. The movie's action is just as fukkery loaded and leads to scenes that may involve burying an armored limousine under fifty auto-piloted cars, sliding across ice on a car door while rockets are being fired, invading a ghost plane by jet-powered wing-suits, Guy Ritchie-esque flashback-explained plot twists (including British accents) and a lot of narrated hacking. And if you think that's not enough fukkery for you, it all accumulates into this:
Added to the fray of the family is Scott Eastwood, introduced as a rulebook following rookie under the care of Kurt Russell who has yet to earn his fukkery stripes, essentially replacing Paul Walker as the family's white guy (Lucas Black has to be somewhere really pissed off about that one). Meanwhile Charlize Theron's Cypher is retroactively introduced as the big main bad behind the previous two F&F movies as well, making her the ultimate bad. She does so much narrated hacking here (and a particularly over-commentated hacking battle against Nathalie Emmanuel) that it felt like a missed opportunity that they didn't get Hackers' Angelina Jolie for the role instead, except Theron is like twelve times the better actress of course.
Also, I don't know if it's age catching up to Ludacris and Tyrese or if the rumors about them partying heavy during filming are indeed true, but there are a couple of scenes where the bags under their eyes have bags under their eyes.
All in all it gets five fukkeries out five, and my only real issue with the movie is that the initial setup of the plot (Vin Diesel's heel turn and The Rock being sent to prison) is so flat-out telegraphed and rushed that it feels like they weren't even trying there. Which is weird for a movie that spends the rest of its two plus hours trying its hardest to be as ridiculous as possible.
Jason Statham becomes comedy relief as a hard-boiled gun-fighting babysitter on board of a plane while the Furious Fam protect Vin Diesel from a gigantic Michael Bay-esque fireball by forming a shield with their cars, in a slow-motion shot that literally looks like it belongs in an Avengers movie.

So with a 250 million budget (allegedly) this is the biggest budget ever given to a black director in Hollywood history,no?
Still don't understand that Hollywood are so tone deaf to not see that diversity is the biggest reason this franchise is so big.
They even filmed this in Cuba, truly a global film franchise.
Hollywood should be trying to recreate that instead of pissing people off with tone deaf white washing.
I'm trying to think of any other blockbuster films that have come close in diversity. Suicide squad?

That reasoning was so dumb lol since fast 5 these movies have been progressively getting higher and higher box office sales, why the hell would it stop now cuz of one person being off screen
