The release of Furious 7.
You can find me always watching the Fast & Furious movies on TV, having them pre-ordered to be at my door when they go on DVD (now Blu-Ray) and seeing the movies on opening night. Which is where I will be tonight at approximately 7:30. Sitting nice and cozy {cramped} in that movie seat to watch the last ride of Brian O'Connor. Cue the tears.
I've forced my mom, sister and husband to watch this franchise and gave them no choice but to love it. Especially since I would play it over and over again. I saw most of the movies with my mom and that makes her pretty much the coolest mom there ever was. I had Paul Walker posters hanging in my room around the time of the second release. I might have even been the reason we had a Fast & Furious movie marathon in a cramped college room of a fraternity house. I even wrote about Paul Walker's death and why it meant so much to so many people, my personal take. There may even be talks about how I used to drive my little Chevy Cavalier too fast, too furious ;)
The reviews have been nothing but fantastic for Furious7. Answering the question that many people are thinking, How will Brian O'Connor leave his family? How will Paul Walker leave this franchise? Since I am quite the emotional person as it is, I have no doubt I will have tears flowing tonight. Saying goodbye to Paul Walker in the Fast & Furious franchise.
Aside from that, Happy Friday!
I love this franchise too. I hear so many people complaining about it and how they made too many of them but those people are wrong.
ReplyDeleteI am too a fan of this franchise. Sunday were going to see this movie and I just know that I'm going to be emotional to see how they "retire" his character.
ReplyDeleteShould be interesting to see! Did you hear about Vin Diesel naming his daughter Pauline? So sweet.
ReplyDeleteI just watched it earlier today and it was amazing! I thought the way they ended it was perfect. I did get teary at the end. Did you like it?!
ReplyDeleteI loved it! Definitely cried at the end. Even harder because you know their emotions were real as they were saying goodbye :(
ReplyDeleteIt was such a good movie. That was so sweet of Vin Diesel. Following his Facebook he always posts about Paul, it was fitting.
ReplyDeleteSo what did you think? I cried at the end for sure. So sad to see it all end :(
ReplyDeleteIt's such a successful franchise and it's because they just kept going, kept evolving the characters and story lines. It's why it's hard because they became a family. Did you see it? How did you like it?
ReplyDeleteNo, I haven't seen it yet. We're probably going to go this upcoming weekend. We did watch Fast Five last night. ;-)
ReplyDeleteexactly!! It felt like everything they said was what they really wanted to tell Paul. No script
