Like pickled ginger after F8. Idris Elba chewing scenery is fucking great.

Without The Family, their chemistry, and their history, this looks like just another action movie.
ahahah i was just about to post this in the official F&F thread but perhaps⌠Cobbs & Slaw deserve their own thread after allâŚ
I can only hope my wishes are fulfilled and this sci fi angle bleeds over into the official F&F sequel
also Shaw fucking killed Han and I will definitely be rooting for Idris Elba in this one

What if they bring back Han for C&S instead of F&F?
That Han Slaw killed in that moment was actually a clone created in an orbital research station and the real Han has been working with Slaw behind the scenes.

Han comes back with half of his face scarred from the fire and wants revenge on Shaw. He doesnât have any alliegance to Hobbs so itâs perfect.
Give him an eyepatch too and itâll be the sexiest shit ever.

Would the eyepatch be on the scarred or not-scarred side?
I was thinking the scarred side.
I think all of the gay panic bond villains gave me a thing for handsome disfigurement.
also do you think the screenwriters knew they were going to have an actor as brilliant as Elba to deliver the line âIâm a bad guyâ in a way that made it sound like it wasnât written with absolutely 0 effort, or do you think they just didnât give a shit

On the one hand Iâm strongly Team Vin over Team The Rock on the other they finally gave one of these to an Actual Action Director???
I did not know Vanessa Kirby is in this!
There sure were a lot of cameos in this including one that is real bitter sweet because of recent news.
It really felt completely removed from F&F. Just a weightless buddy cop film with extremely world and endless non-problems. Like they worked backwards from every absurd solution to invent problems for it.
F&F is about family so they wrote Family??? On a whiteboard.
Only one learring ass shot. So that was better.
All the face center frame worked well for comedy and the mid-range from the waistup fight shows made it real hard to feel anything during the fights.
They really abandon camera direction rules during that hallway fight. Itâs still readable but that was the one where my brain was working on how to better stage it and they definitely did better with the short cut in the trailer.
Oh and the big bad was clearly Ryan Renolds right?
The answer is apparently whatever we donât really have plans.
Prolly one of the few things which looks big when he holds it.
