This is a HeadGum Original. The most important thing in life will always be the people right here, right now. That's what's real. Hello? Dominic Toretto. You don't know me. You're about to. Who did this?

Remember Owen Shaw? This is his big bad brother. He's a special forces assassin. They created a monster. Looks like the sins of London have followed us home. We're being hunted. Shaw lives in a world that doesn't play by your rules. And like it or not, you and your friends are a part of it now.

I don't have friends. I got family. This time it ain't just about being fast. Can somebody just walk me through what we supposed to be doing? Yo, Roman, you need some fresh air? Just when you didn't think it could get any better, huh? We got mercenaries after us with enough weapons to wipe out small countries. This right here takes crazy to a whole nother level.

So what's the plan, Don? One last ride. Oh, wow, it's another episode of Newcomers, and we're covering Furious 7. The person with me is Gabrus, because Lauren has other things on her mind. Big plans. Or little plans. Whatever.

She has a lot of plans. Tiny, little plan that's going to be a lifetime of planning. So this is the seventh episode of the fourth season. We're watching Fast and the Furious. Ten episodes. We're covering all nine movies along with Hobbs and Shaw. We're discussing the seventh film in the franchise. I cried at the end of it.

Furious 7. Not to cheer your sadness, but I'm glad to hear you're a human like myself wow what what raw so it came out in 2015 but it feels so current uh furious seven's available for fee on amazon apple tv google play voodoo there's gonna be spoilers baby because the film's six years old um let's just introduce our guest baby sam you baby. Sam, you want to do it? You want me to do it? Hell yeah. I started it, and then I was like, you fucking do it. I thought you said Sam. Oh, imagine.

I was like, Sam, introduce yourself. That is exactly what I did. Sam, you do it. From Veep, Detroiters, Champagne Ill, and the new feature, The Tomorrow War, it's Sam Richardson. Hey. Oh, baby. i was about to introduce myself i really was i was like one beat away it is truly how i said it sam what is your relationship to the fast and furious film franchise um i've seen honestly up through seven okay oh shit yeah you have all the backstory you need for this one and none of the post story yeah exactly like i watched the first uh two when they were like new ish and then uh i hadn't seen i bought them all on itunes i was like i'm gonna just sit down i'm gonna like

watch them all i kind of never got around to it but then i was in london uh and my buddy lives out there my buddy from detroit lives out there now and we it was his birthday weekend so he came to my hotel and we watched one through uh seven together that. Wait, is your friend want to be my friend? That sounds like the perfect, perfect. Hey, this is weird, but can I meet your friend? He sounds like him and I would get along.

That's not weird, man. No, thank you. Thank you. You could share this friend. I like this friend, too. Did you guys cuddle in bed? Because that's what I envisioned. On the couch. Just like cuddling in bed with some snacks, some room service, a couple of beers. Had all that.

As a touring comedian, whenever you have a friend in your room, like, let's watch a movie after the show or whatever. And you're like, all right, we both are going to lay on my double bed together. All right. It's a shitty little hotel, I guess. Like John Gemberling's going to take his pants off and get underneath the blanket with him. True story, Gemberling.

I love it. Very specific. Very nice. Yeah, keep those boundaries. This movie was fucking wild. It starts at a 10 and ends at like a 22 it is truly the wildest action sequences i have seen in a movie um i forgot how wild they were it really features some of the best uh monster set pieces of the series i think like yes the the parachuting car convoy thing. The driving through three build or no two buildings.

Yeah. Yeah. Two buildings. Starting in one building, driving through another one into a third. Yes. And then out of that one. Onto the ground. Something that happens in that sequence.

We're talking about, we're talking about when Vin and when Brian and Dom steal the super car. Of course, the chip that they need is in a super car. There's always a chip in a car. They always have to steal a car. That's just the basics of this. They're like, the chip is hidden in a spare tire in the trunk. Oh, thank God.

It's cars. Yes, we can do it. That's our specialty. We know cars. We were talking about how these this franchise always does one more thing than they have to and i think the most indicative part of that movie is they blow through uh he's driving a supercar from one tower to another to another and in midair the supercar is hit by a grenade launcher

what an unnecessary step but we have to demonstrate that shaw is such so accurate with his grenade launcher and it's like what we're already jumping from building the building we don't need a grenade to hit the car little pizzazz on it i also love that part of the story vin diesel had to he held the car up with sheer muscle. He deadlifted a car that they set up as bulletproof, which means it's not light. It's very heavy. It's tons and tons.

And Paul just gets under it. And he's like, you got this? And he's like, tinker, tinker, tinker, tinker. I got my little light. I was like, did they introduce that he had like some sort of steel skeleton or something in a previous movie? Slowly. Not exactly.

But when you see him catch Letty in midair and land on the hood of a car and be completely fine, he might have adamantium bones. He might. Great. Also, I love the scene after they dive out of the car. The car goes out the the third building and it's falling there's just a nice family having dinner who doesn't notice it no no that shot took a long time to set up and it was for what just for me to teehee it the briefest teehee it's not even like a reaction shot of like a people like whoa this is crazy

it's the fact that they're ignoring it yeah as if like oh in dubai this shit happens all the time it's just so what before we like get get into the movie uh we got the Toretto Gazetto. Oh, right. So Vin Diesel teases Fast and Furious cameo for Paul Walker's daughter, Meadow. Guess what he says. Can you imagine what he says? I would not count anything out, Diesel told E! News. When asked if Meadow 22 would ever make a cameo in the franchise, he continued, without giving you all the secrets of Fast 10,

let's just say nothing's ruled out. Nothing is off the table is what he usually says. Yes, but he's like, much like the titles of the film, he was like, how can I rework it so it's technically the same thing?

So Meadow has remained close to the Fast and Furious family since her father's passing. She attended the F9 premiere this summer. I mean, sure. While we're on the topic, this is the movie that Paul Walker passed out, passed away, passed out on set. And that's the major story about him in Fast and Furious.

Yep, he passed out on set. And that's the major story about him in Fast 7. Yep, he passed out on set. Everything was okay. We are great. He passed away before principal photography was done and they had to, and they put together, we'll talk about the whole movie, but they put together a pretty solid tribute at the end. I can't hear that song now without crying.

I know, I'm thinking about it now, stop. A whiz song that makes me tear up is just a crazy situation to be in in life. We're like, oh man, I'm getting choked up. It's Wiz Khalifa again. It's like, what? I mean, it is really, it's the beginning of it that like tinkles, like doo, doo, doo.

Like that just makes me feel things. And then it's just so sad. And yeah, we're jumping to the end. But like Brian's in a Toyota Supra, which is the 10 second car. He or she, he promised Dom, but it's white. Like he's an eight. And I was just like, oh my God, this was done with so much care and thought. And then they go, they go to race.

And they go separate ways. Separate ways. It's not goodbye. And the look in whether it's CGI it's the brother it's whatever it is the look in Paul Walker's face and that smile and that smile is like I'm getting

I have fucking goosebumps talking about it like it really fucking hits man yeah it really is and his phone conversation with Mia when she's like when I first saw this movie in the theater I knew this was the movie and they keep setting up that he's in these dangerous

and dangerous situations they're going to kill this guy in the movie? I'm like please don't let Tony Jaa kill Paul Walker, everyone will hate Tony Jaa forever it's like everyone's indestructible just please don't let Paul die.

Like, and they keep setting up like Paul, he's got these separate missions. You go up on the tower by yourself. I'm like, no, no, stay away from the fucking tower,

man. You go ahead and get in that fist fight on the edge of that volcano. I mean, and I got to say through and through Paul Walker saves the world in a hoodie and Vans in every movie and nothing changes. We don't dress him a little bit more heroically for his last one at all. No, he wears. Everybody has to wear tuxedos.

Right. Everyone is stylish in one scene. And then right after that scene, Dom goes, all right, everybody get changed. Right after that scene, Dom goes, all right, everybody get changed. Also, I cried during the wedding. The wedding recap when when he was like when Letty goes, why didn't you say we were married? He's like, you can't tell somebody to love you. I'm going to cry right now. Yeah.

Now, while you're crying, let's discuss. You want to talk? Paul Walker dresses the same way I do for my eighth grade, my first day of eighth grade, like Airwalks, Orange County Choppers t-shirt, and long Quicksilver shorts. But fucking Vin Diesel is in a wife eater and white capri pants in so many of these movies, including on his wedding. On his wedding day.

She has a full dress and he's wearing a white tank top and capris and they didn't get a ring, so he puts his necklace on her. Why are you marrying this giant potato freak? Okay, doesn't care. And then the priest marrying them is just like a boy like a little boy

Okay, we're back. Furious 7, written by Chris Morgan. Is he new to the franchise? No, he wrote the last one.

Oh, okay. But James Wan. Wayne? Wan. Wan. He's new. He's new. Yeah, he's the Conjuring director.

He's a fucking talented guy. He brought him in for this one. But I will say, he did change the movie tonally or the move like i feel like in four five and six it had a darker feel and in the beginning of this it's very poppy like the second one but then it totally shifts right after race wars to go back to being a little darker so i guess the darkness i think they're trying to show that everyone's lives are good in the beginning of this movie where it's like everyone's adjusting to their new lives like paul like all i like all the brian o'connor minivan bits that he's doing and shit like yeah

but like once the once the house gets blown up it's like we got to get back to the fucking streets wild i couldn't believe it sh Shaw loves to blow shit up. And like even Shaw's intro is like the beginning of a Call of Duty. You know what I mean? It was nuts. Why did he blow up

the hospital that his little brother is in? His little brother's in the hospital. Like, well, surely this would be detrimental to your brother's health. That doesn't make any sense.

He's like, take care of them as they're like, the doctor's cowering in the corner and they're probably like, you blew up all of our equipment. How do you want us to take care of them? Why he doesn't leave

with his own brother there and set him up with his own doctor or something. He seems to have limitless possibilities of what he can and can't do. Exactly. I mean. His resources are limitless. Shaw is a strange character to me because I'm like, where the fuck does he come from?

Why is he like this? What? So he breaks into fucking Hobbs's office and they have a fight. And then what? I want to talk about this fight because this is a fun one. This is the first time in the franchise and arguably the first time in a movie starring Dwayne The Rock Johnson that they reference the fact that he works out. Because he's so insanely buff. This is the first time ever.

It's like he's drinking a protein shake. It's like, yes, he would be doing that every hour in the movie. It's like, finally, we see him like post work. Now it makes sense that he's oily and veiny. Cause he just worked out for the first time. It seems like, I mean, you should really put like a bunch of equipment in there.

Yes. This is all this man does. He's doing preacher girls when Statham walks in. And this movie, I think is one of the only movies where people actually get hurt. Yes. Where there's like a little bit of consequence to things. A little bit.

Shaw throws Hobbes. I mean, Dom, yeah, Dom dies and gets brought back by Letty's memories. That's right. By an amnesia. Someone recovering from their amnesia brings him back to life. Brings him back from having been crushed. My God. They're like, stop doing CPR. Let me slowly tell him a story. amnesia brings him back to life from having been crushed my god they're like stop doing CPR

let me slowly tell him a story I mean yeah that's what she does she's like stop it stop it okay Dom I remember and then he was like yes you remember my god but when

Shaw goes off or no he throws an explosive so then hobbs and homegirl who was fucking dumb but i guess is now fucking him and working with him they like tumble out of the building a car breaks their fall again this is a recurring different yeah this car hurts them no yeah it's not the car is different Hobbes is different than Toretto Toretto doesn't a car can't hurt Toretto he's part car Hobbes car is completely foreign to him

but it is the second scene literally if you played all the movies back to back it happens 45 minutes after Dom does the same thing to save Letty. It's just this movie again with a different guy and a different girl. You're like, what the fuck is the point of this? They're really counting on a couple years between the two.

Yeah, exactly. I do think they think you'll forget about that they're just reusing the same. Oh, a car breaks their fall. It's possible they forgot. They were like, didn't we do this in the last movie? It's like, who fucking knows? We had the tank, the plane. But it's possible they forgot they were like did you didn't we do this in the last movie it's like who fucking knows we had the tank the plane but it's so funny that they can't remember basic shit like that but they remember loopholes to bring people back from the dead yes right

so wild so then mia reveals to dom that she's pregnant again and then Dom's like God so Brian and then she's like but he told me that he misses not the action but the bullets and I was like what I'm like bro you don't have to tell your wife that I wish I wasn't home with you I wish someone was shooting me right now instead of being with you and this baby

I'd rather be shot at than be a dad okay also they get a package sent to the house and very casually mia's like it's from tokyo and dom's like tokyo and then it fucking blows the house up yeah entirely only their house though thank god oh wait so before it blows up yeah no. No other houses are, you know, harmed. But he gets a phone call from what's his name? Deckard Shaw. Deckard, who says he killed Han in Tokyo. So Han finally went to Tokyo and it wasn't good.

It did not end up well. So then Dom goes to Tokyo to retrieve to retrieve han's bodies and i'm and then he goes to the crash site and gets the necklace that he then gives letty at their wedding but i was like did this necklace only appear in the the third he's been wearing it for movie after oh yeah i keep forgetting wait fuck oh yeah three happens the timeline is insane well this is where it gets confusing because shaw throws the cross on there and where did he get it from because he hasn't like killed toretto or letty yet he had uh toretto's wearing it in six who cares but it is wait no so how yeah why don't they care who cares but it is wait no

so how yeah why don't they explain how he got it and then the fucking Lucas Black from three the little mush mouth like southern dude he has it and gives it to him and is like here Han had this and it's just a picture of the family and your cross

Han when he was like I had a life before this and it was just like, just collecting things from my family and keeping them in my car for when I crash. It's so nuts. This whole scene is so insane and you forget how bad that man's southern accent is.

He's like, I got this from Han's crash site and I think you should have younger i think they were because like definitely the idea that he's supposed to be himself from 15 years back i was like oh go ahead just animate this they use the original shot of little bow wow from the movie or else he'd be fucking medium Bow Wow. He's now Shad Moss. It's not the same. So, okay.

Dom, Brian, Teej, and Roman mourn Han and Giselle at Han's funeral, which is like so funny that Giselle doesn't get a funeral. Like, why is she just mourned at the same fucking funeral? Like, oh, right. Also, Giselle died. We never actually went to her body or anything. Just fell off that plane. I guess not.

And then she, because her funeral should have happened way before Hans, because Han went and had a whole time in Tokyo. Went and had Tokyo drift. He went and had a third. Yeah. He was busy for at least, you know,

an hour and 40 minutes. So they should have had a funeral for her. So Dom confronts Deckard in an underground tunnel where they fucking just crash into each other. The fastest speed. Like, as if there are no brakes. They drive at 100 miles per hour towards each other and then just head on collide with each other. And then walk away. away like no airbags no that's those are that's a life ending and i know i know for for fast and furious life ending means nothing yeah right death is not permanent and also it's impossible to die

like why avoid anything if you can get through this one it's not just running into a wall it's running into a car that's coming at the same force as yeah the g-force would at least empty your bowels into your pants like they should have both had visible diarrhea in their shit like in their pants when they got out imagine they did that and you were watching it you'd just be like wow oh this is very realistic this movie does something crazy where they're like steel reinforced that's like wearing heavy boxing gloves in the ring or whatever and it's like how is statham driving that car so fast if it's reinforced with extra steel and also you're dumb for driving into it dom exactly what the fuck are you talking about and he doesn't fall for it twice he pops a wheelie the next time oh boy when he popped the wheelie i

was like what a treat but also i was like why is jason statham doing the same thing like why didn't he pop a wheelie why didn't he get on like the the sides of the fucking it was just wild no the biggest the biggest argument i have against this movie is they established that owenshaw in the last movie for what it's worth is part of part of a British mobile unit where they're all vehicle experts. At least. It's like, why is Shaw such a driver? Just let him be someone else. He doesn't have to show up in a dune buggy in a sports car because now he's just too much like every other person they deal with.

They have enough of their own car shit they could do. Just let Shaw be like a military badass. But instead he is a solo car driving guy, just like Toretto, just like Shaw. It's like, just come up with something new. No,

sorry, Gabrus, in this world, everybody's going fast for the family. So then we meet Mr. Nobody, who's played by Kurt Russell. I've never complained about

Kurt Russell being added to anything. He's one of my favorite actors of all time. It's so fun he's in this movie. The role is pointless. It's so pointless. We could have eliminated this whole storyline. Yes, but now they need

this storyline because they need this storyline because they need to start setting up why these guys keep getting involved in crazy missions or else at some point if you really just want to hang out and drink Coronas at your garage, you just should.

You do that. You don't have to do Fast 8 or Fast 9. Exactly. Did you grow up watching the A-Team at all? No. Yes. So the first four seasons, great. In the fifth season, they added

Robert Vaughn as the sort of like Charlie to the Charlie's Angels. So they all get court-martialed and then he saves them from he fakes their death and like now they work for him. So you have him in there sending them on missions,

which before the A-Team was just like they were hidden and if you find them you hire them and they take care of your thing and then they've done the episodes done but now it's like he's giving them missions which is like what i think they were trying to set up here yes they're like he's like a stakes injector because he could go like look you're fighting a global terrorist organization it's not like stealing DVD players anymore. I did love that they did say that. Yes! In the movie, they do.

They're like, you're not stealing DVD players anymore. And I was like, tee hee hee. That was so fucking long ago. We are so far past DVD players that I can't believe it was mentioned. It's only six weeks ago for us, but we live in the movie time so it's years and years and years at least two mr nobody tells dom that he'll help him stop deckard and so i'm

like okay so deckard shaw is going after dom because he thinks dom put his brother in the hospital like that's it that's the one thing yeah because his brother when his brother is not dead you're like well then why is shawn so mad so mad like why your brother was doing crimes yes he got in trouble he didn't get killed he wasn't like murdered he got beat in a fist fight in a flying plane. That's all. He's on a respirator. He's doing okay. So then we find out that he,

Mr. Nobody wants the eye of God or no God's eye, a computer program that uses devices to track people down. Also, he needs to save a hacker named Ramsey. Who's stunning from a Nigerian terrorist. Moses. Jakan. J. J. named Moses Jakandi yeah you got me I'm not trying

I'll let one of you two mess up that pronunciation come on I can't say his name wait is it Digimon Digimon Honsu he's hot he's so hot all the things I would let him do to me and i gotta

give him credit where it's due him yelling in anger and frustration in the chopper is so he's such a good actor his accent is beautiful watch him go like fuck come on it's so fucking enjoyable it's so great like when he grabs the machine gun, he's like, Jesus Christ! So, Dom, Brian, Letty, Roman, and Teej airdrop their cars over the Caucasus Mountains. Wait, is that where Caucasians are from?

It is. Wow, you're people, Gabrus. I thought we were from the plains because we're plain as fuck. They rescue Ramsey and go to Abu Dhabi to steal a flash drive containing God's eye. Dom, Brian. Real quick. You said they rescue Ramsey. That's a very casual way to describe.

They perish. Dom gives her a helmet and then they drive off a mountain. That starts with cars. We hear cars don't fly three times in this movie. They say it so much. And I love that they say it and then they're like, but these guys are going to fly. They're going to fly. When Tej makes Tyrese, when Tej makes Roman's car go out, I was like,

that's actually kind of fucked up. It's fucked up. You could kill this man. It's not a cool prank. It goes out and it starts like flipping all over the place. I'm like, you're not getting a handle

on this thing, man. You're dead. It blew a parachute to pull him out. I'm like, that wasn't his only parachute. It was the one. And then we get the fucking, again, we love our western uh analogies here we get our

convoy hijacking that they get to do but i want to talk about this moment because one of my favorite guys is in this sequence tony ja who's like a thai fighting legend from the ong bok series he's the guy that goes head to head with b. And I think that choreo inside there is so fucking fun. It is fun. But when they do, they like blow it up. They like shoot a rocket at her or something. The acting in that was not great.

When he got like jostled around, I was like, okay, friend. He's more of, I mean, he's more of a fight choreographer. He has two lines.

He has the line too slow in this movie, and he almost nails it. It is funny how terrible some of the line deliveries are in this movie. Ronda Rousey, I never want to see in another movie again. Boy, oh boy. She makes Gina Carano look absolutely dynamic. Like an Oscar winner. Oh my God. I'm happy to see Ronda. I'm happy to see her in this movie i'm happy to see

i'm always happy to see women in high heels beating the shit out honestly that was fucking cool um so the elite guard the female bodyguards that was so they were so that whole sequence was real like everything in abu dhabi was incredible was sweet yeah it was so much fun um so they get the god's eye which is in the fucking car and they like have a distraction where roman is bad at this it's a bad distraction we were talking yes like first off, I'm talking about how comic relief guys in the movie is Tyrese. Tyrese is the comic relief. And he is the funniest person in the movie, but that's because the movie is not cast for comedy reasons. Correct.

They didn't lock it in. Honestly, Kurt Russell is funnier. Kurt Russell, he's got more comic talent, to be fair. Statham does. Statham does. Statham does, exactly. But he does his old happy birthday trick, which is just to say, is it your birthday? And then get everyone to sing happy birthday

to a very confused pretty woman who can't say any lines, otherwise they have to pay her more. Exactly. It was wild. The other thing that happens is they talk about, oh no, not the birthday thing. Like they all know. Yes. It was wild. The other thing that happens is they talk about, oh no, not the birthday thing. Like they all know. Yes.

But Tash and Roman only met in five. Right. Yep. Right. He shouldn't really know. You are absolutely correct. How many times has Tyrese done this since five? This guy just breaks this thing down

in every sit-down restaurant they go to. No, not the birthday drink. You can usually just say it's your birthday so you get a free cake. Nicole, did you not feel for Tyrese in that moment? It felt like he was in the middle of a stand-up set that was bombing. And he literally does like, look at this girl's hair. She must have taken

all the products from the bathroom. And she's just like, okay. That's the heck of shit that I fall on too i'm like what's up with the lights in this place huh what kind of stupid college is this but i was like what was the direction on this because we could have said all right extras laugh at him yes like let's let's make this seem good laugh at him react in some way t-pain is in the scene and he doesn't have a fucking he's like barely on. He's just there for a hot second to be like, I'm in a Fast and Furious

movie. Just be entertained by him, that's all. And you can tell from Ludacris' reactions to him that he didn't know what was going on. They gave him the lines, he was like he didn't just, did he? Oh no. Not that. He doesn't the lines he's like he he didn't just did he yeah oh no not that

because what he's really doesn't know what he's actually doing that's so funny on the day tyrese will riff and everyone's like really okay even tyrese was like really uh all right my god and then okay some notes so uh liddy letdy finds this thing in the bed i was like wait what is that is that that's like part of the eyes eyes of god or god's eye oh she's hacked they're hacking into the security in the bedroom which is so wild that it's like next to the bed yeah it's weird that it's like in the wall. It works out perfectly that also Tej knows where all of that is in his first trip to Abu Dhabi. And just a reminder for everyone,

Tej was owning a mechanic shop in Too Fast, Too Furious and is now the second best hacker in the world because the best hacker in the world was introduced. In his movie. Yep. As in the last movie, he was the best hacker in the world was introduced. Yep. As a last movie, he was the best hacker in the world. This one we learned there's a hotter, better hacker out there. And Luda is hot as fuck.

I gotta say, I love that they're both people of color at the best of their game. Hacking into things. Dude, these movies do such a good job of like everyone they interact with is either a person of color or like a stunt casted white like Kurt Russell an 80s movie legend Ronda Rousey an MMA fighter like they're just like yeah it's all we're doing balls to the wall and everything casting stunts music what did Ronda say she was, these parties are not fun. She was like, I'm glad you showed up. These parties bore me to death. It did sound like when you ask Final Draft to just read.

I'm glad you showed up. Yeah, exactly. Oh, God. But that fight, man. I really. So they were talking about doing a lady sp-off i want them to do it like how fucking badass i would i'm here for that i right i worked on a project with ronda rousey she was very this was later on in her career she was able to pull off jokes that we fed her but i'm telling this story solely to say i hugged her at the end of the shoot and it was fucking amazing her back is her back and traps are so developed

i was just like hugged her and i was like whoa this is amazing i was like just kill me crush me please snap my fucking it is nice to touch people who are muscular especially when you're a doughy person yeah you know because you're like i didn't know people could be like that. You're rock hard and so am I for different reasons. Gabrus, why are you hugging Ronda Rousey with your ass sticking out so much?

I demonstrated why. Yes, and podcasting is an audio medium, so no one will ever know what you did. I'll describe. Pull it out closer to the camera. I'll describe it. What are you asking, Sam?

Let me see so I can say. So then they're back at this weird fucking place. I guess it's Mr. Nobody's house. And then a bunch of people come, and then there's a shootout oh yeah wait they go to statham's hideout which is like i love when they're oh when they find them using the god's eye yes paul walker's like oil oil factory perfect nobody around it's like he's in the factory in the middle of a desert it's like this is here's my other big complaint

with the movie they destroy everywhere they go in these movies right like in six they destroy that bridge in spain they destroy everything why in the fuck would you bring them to the most populated city your hometown to fight them i'd be like let's take them to the desert so there's no other casualties it's like no but we know the streets of L.A. better. If I'm in Dom's crew, I go, we do fine everywhere, bro. Exactly. We're all still here. But they want to go home.

They're a little homesick. Oh, did we talk about Race Wars? I forgot about that. No, let's go into Race Wars. The poorly named. Yes. Race Wars. So Dom brings Letty to Race Wars.

And I guess to like jog her memory. So then he like teach, he like tells her how to race. And she's like, this is not what I do. And he's like, you want to win? So then she does what he says. She wins. Everyone gets so excited. And then she punches Hector, who's from the first one.

And I was like, oh, I love, I love bringing Hector back. I love putting him in a set piece that I know him from racing. But she gets overwhelmed and then leaves Dom for a little bit, but then comes back. She's still processing her amnesia. Hey, did you recognize? Oh, yeah, go. They really chumped out Hector real bad.

I know. Punch him in the mouth. He's got a mouth full of blood. He's like, oh! And Dom just says, yeah, you never could take a punch. You gotta say, she's dealing with some stuff, man.

Just be honest. She's got amnesia, bro. And then Iggy is like, where have you been, ghost girl? Oh, man. Everyone chants ghost girl at her after she won i was like you can't taunt the winner exactly uh did you recognize the uh the hot tatted up asian woman who started the she's your former girl co uh she was a guy code star levi tread she was on that show i was like why do i know this woman and she has has no lines. She just does this,

but they always stunt cast the person. I think it was Rita Ora in six when they win the races. She's the British woman who calls them out. There's always stunt casting. And I'm like, oh, that's, I think her name is Levi Tran,

who is the, she was on guy code or girl code. She's very pretty. They put her in a skirt that was too short. I can see her undies. It was underwear. I can see all her undies. That's the Fast and the. I could see her undies. I could see all her undies. That's the Fast and the Furious sexiness is undies.

We're going to see the bottoms of butt cheeks and some cleavage. There's not even like, this is crazy for me to say, but there's not even like big boobs in these movies. It's just like dancer types. It's just from the waist down a kind of flat ass.

This movie, every one of these movies features like steel drums and a close up of a flat ass sashaying through. It's so why don't we get juicy booties? Why aren't we being rewarded? Yeah, exactly. We came to see it. Give me a reward. Just like, why can we show the most insane violence in the streets of Los Angeles,

but we can't see a little nipple? Come on. You know, we can't see a juicy titty. Do we see some nipple in Abu Dhabi when those ladies were painted gold, or do they frame them just out that you just saw that they were naked, but you didn't see anything good?

Ooh, I didn't notice, and I have quite the eye for nipples i have rocked erotic mega touch in every townie bar i've ever been to i could find an errant bra strap or an mismatched areolas i got you mismatched areolas it's a double strap on that underwear. That was always the lowest stakes thing ever, too, when you were trying to find the last thing, and you're like, oh, she's got lace on one stocking

and not the other. Damn it. Shit, I can't believe I lost on that. Give me another dollar. I used my clue on that. So back to the plot. Mr. Nobody, he puts on like Blu-ray goggles. I don't know.

He's like seeing the dark. Yeah, he puts on Blu-ray goggles so he can watch Blu-rays up close on his eyes. He's like, shoot, what's night vision goggles? My bad. I think X-ray is the word you meant to say, but what he is using is night vision. Night vision. Yes. It's on Blu-ray goggles and his PlayStation helmet.

He starts walkmanning around. But he gets shot, and then Dom clocks it, and then he winks at Dom before falling down, and I was like, what is that about? The whole sequence makes no sense. They have Deckard Shaw. They're like, all right,

pal. And he's like, I have a grenade. It's like, shoot the fucking guy. Yeah. Shoot him right in the fucking head. Prepare for a grenade.

He's a terrorist. You're an amazing, you're the international organization protecting the world from terrorism. Shoot the fucking guy. Right. When you walk in. Exactly. Oh, wait. Also, we're introduced to uh this is in the beginning to fucking hobbs's daughter and i was like why do we care

yeah so he can have somebody to talk to in the hospital yeah that's i guess well i i guarantee that was something to be like the rock was like i need family in this movie series too family and i don't have any family yeah i tell you some bitch i need some family in this movie i gotta get some taramana and a cheat meal you listen up brother i do not i don't like when he says some bitch it's weird to me i don't like when he says a lot of things that guy i don't like when he says what are you doing in my yard again didn't the cops already talk to you you know like I hate when he says that shit

stop taking photographs of me in the shower all that classic bullshit Gabriel stop getting in his yard stop taking pictures there's a fun video of The Rock like driving past a like Los Angeles tour group

and then he rolls in his window and he's like where's The Rock and everyone's like ahhh and he's like I love giving back

to fans and I was like this is giving back letting them let it gaze upon me as I give you

the gift of the sight of my hairless flawless body boy it like it was very funny there was this like one woman in glasses who was like bugging the fuck out um but anyway they return back to los angeles where dom plans to fight deckard solo brian promises mia he's gonna dedicate himself to their family after he defeats these bad guys which is so funny that it's like I just need one more near death experience to be

a good father I gotta say this movie over it's such a trope to be like I'm struggling between being a family man and a total alpha badass like that's such a trope in all these movies of like my wife's harping on me but I'm struggling between being a family man and a total alpha badass. Like that's such a trope in all these movies of like my wife's harping on me, but I'm the only one who can figure out who the last boy scout is or whatever.

But in this, in this movie, Mia keeps putting, I think it's just interesting writing that me is like, no, I need you protecting my brother. Dom out there. Risk your fucking life.

Okay. I do. It's like a strange angle, but I enjoy it that the wife's like get out of the house go with your friends have fun also were they all living at 1327 were they all living in that house in los angeles because they're all still billionaires from fast five so i'm like why didn't we buy like a better house like why didn't we buy, like, a better house? Like, why didn't we move somewhere else? And, like, you know those neighbors are like, fuck.

These people again? Yeah, they said the house just blew up. Oh, my God. These fucking people come back. They move in. Like, you know, like racist redlining neighbors. Like, they move in. They bring 40 of their fucking family members, all different races.

Next thing you know, the whole neighborhood's exploding. Anyway, 15 years ago, three Asian guys on motorcycles sprayed up this place with machine guns. That was in Fast 2, neighbor. It's different now. We're different now. We have money now. We're different now.

So, Jakonde, I think that's how we say his name uh digimon how do i say his how do i say his real name digimon digimon digimon i fucking love him i guess his name would be jaconde based on how it would be okay yeah so jaconde he's like uh trying to get god's eye ramsay's trying to hack into it hobbs finds out about it. Oh, wait. Hobbes. We get a cool Hobbes moment. I don't care how dumb it is. Yeah.

This is fun. Him flexing through a cast. Kind of rules. Yeah, it was very fun. I almost want it to be like a full body cast. So we just watch. I agree. It kind of reminded me of Forrest Gump

when Forrest Gump is running through his crutches or like his little braces yeah just poorly but they aren't bracing anything that cast wasn't holding anything that's all fine but then he like gears up and he's got all this gear in the hospital room

he's got a gun his bulletproof vest next to his daughter's coloring books or something get cps in there stat and then hobbs has do you okay when i grew up i had like a central vacuum system right like it was a hose that you plugged into the wall he has one he has like a gun version of that like where the fuck is this tube going? There's like this insane tube that's tied to this machine gun that he's just like fucking spraying bullets out of. Oh, when he when he takes the drones chain gun off the drone. OK, so just to run because this sequence is so fun all through L.A. We got a G-man,imon jimon hansu screaming

his fucking head off yes helicopter so hot he's not the main bad guy this is what i love about fast and furious like it's such a big movie that hansu is like the second banana guy like he's an insanely big great actor and it's like shaw's the real bad guy and it's like the rock is one of the biggest celebrities of all time it's like but toretto's the real hero how many people do we need for this movie i'm here for it but the rock stops a drone by driving an ambulance off a cliff he's a driving expert also yeah he walks over ices the drone like is it a coup de gras cranks the fucking belt fedfed chain gun off of it, and then is walking down the streets of downtown L.A.

spraying it out. And I said this in the last episode, but I think this movie uses Hobbes the best in that he's an instigator to start the mission. He's barely around, and then he gets a cool fight and a cool gun sequence. And then he's out. Cause yes. Sitting with the other characters a lot in this movie made me,

cause I used to really like six cause there's so much hand to hand, but watching this movie again, back to back with six, I like the less rock and the more fair. And of course the emotional stuff of all the Paul Walker shit of all the Brian shit that, and keeping Hobbes out of the emotional shit is such a smart move too. shit of all the brian shit that and keeping hobbs out of the emotional shit is such a smart move too because who gives a fuck i think so too because

also like deckard he says very little but is also like on the same level of emotion as i think dom is yeah so like for me i feel like they're more evenly matched as foes than Hobbes is with Dom. But I agree. I think he's in the perfect amount because he's like hurt, starts the mission, comes, has a real badass fucking moment. And yeah, it's delightful. It's a real treat. Everyone gets their badass moment. So let's talk them through in this last set piece.

Oh, wow. We get to do the passing the people back and forth through cars like Josie doing two speeding cars and passing a woman who does not know how to drive like is not a car person passing her through windows as you pass they're like we're playing keep away with Ramsey

and everyone's like perfect plan let's do it wait who is this actress she is so she's from she's from Game of Thrones she's she's the Melisandre

not Melisandre the other Khaleesi she's Khaleesi's right hand woman who does like all the translations for her and I think I talked about this earlier too, but that's, that's indicative of Vin's power. He's like,

Hey, game of Thrones is a huge show. There's a hot person that's ethnically ambiguous on that. Put them in our movie. And it's like, bring them on. It's just like, they're immediately in.

I love that. She's in the rest of the movies. She's just added in this movie. It's like a, they rip a hood off of her and they're like, whoa, you're a smoke show. And it's like,

great. You're going to make millions of dollars now. Come with us. She's so fucking pretty. It's a little upsetting. Yeah. So this whole, it's awkward when they call dibs on her.

That's an awkward. Yeah. That I didn't love. They call it out for a second but then they like oh okay are they gonna be aware of this but no they just go deeper into it they just call get you just call because he's like i thought dibs you just called dibs like you're in like you're in third grade and i was like okay now here comes the point like yeah she's a she's a woman and she's an autonomous like, no, I saw

her first. No, me. I was like, oh. Her friend goes, you cannot call dibs on Ramsey. I did that once and her knee met my testicles. Wait, you're also a piece of shit? I mean, I would like to call dibs on Ramsey. She's so

pretty. Objectively, yeah. She's so pretty. Objectively, yeah. She's absolute smoke. Just so pretty. So pretty. In the triple building sequence, I want to just call out, Tej gets a dope hand-to-hand moment

where he gets to pretend to be scared for a second, and then he's just like... Oh, yeah. And you think that the Ramsey-Roman-Tej, like, who is she into, is going to kick off, or that was the selling point, but as someone who's seen the rest of the movies, it's still, like, nothing has happened,

and I love it. No. They both still like her. Yeah. But I like that she doesn't choose one. I like that she's just Ramsey. She loves a computer, not a man. Well, she's never really driven.

We'll find that out in a couple of movies, though. Oh, she gets to drive? Interesting. Everyone eventually drives in the fast track. You're right. You are absolutely right. Everyone at some point will like even mia gets behind the wheel and knows immediately how to fucking drive and drift and whatever

they give they give me like a different superpower every movie where they're like uh she's good at languages so she listens on the radio it's like uh she's kind of good with computers so she hacks in with them uh she can also drive so she drives in this sequence it's like they never know how to fit her in as like a pregnant woman wait also they go hide out at some random man's house that you never see again yeah yeah and that was so random they're just like enough like all right why doesn't shaw go after these this family they're like okay we put her in they put the family in some very safe place yeah protected with guns so you don't have to worry about where they are while the movie's happening and then there's a phone call where he's like i

picked him up from the airport and you're like what okay and yeah he's like the prime minister of dominican republic or something like the way they have it something like that. Like what the fuck is this guy? He's got like his own private army. And he's allegedly the guy who got Dom the safe in Rio. He says on the phone, he's like getting Dom a safe in Rio is harder than this. And you're like, Oh,

I thought Han got the safe for Tej. Okay. Yeah. I thought Tej got it, but maybe Tej called him and then he got it. They all know each other from three other movies. Everyone's had a life. Fast 11, 12, and 13 actually take place in between 2 and 4.

They just haven't been filmed yet. We're going to keep getting all these. But nothing's off the table. It'll get filmed, you know. So Dom fights Deckard on the top of the parking garage. After he fucking wheelies up on his car they're like hand to hand fighting fucking Dom is swinging this

man this person around like he's a rag doll and then there's like a something happened there's like an explosion the crack happens and then Dom goes the thing about street fighting is the street wins and then stomps the thing about street fighting is the street wins and then and then stomps his butt

like a Hulk stomp and breaks down a parking garage I screamed it was so wild and upgrade from lifting a car with his bare hands now he can just punch the floor of a parking structure and collapse it this whole sequence is

so fun because something I love in action movies that isn't really ever in the Fast franchise. And as a fan of A-Team growing up, this is part of it. We got the getting ready montage for the first time where he saws off the shotgun. He's like, puts the FBI vest on, rips the FBI thing off.

I just love seeing everyone gear up that's not something they do a lot in these movies but he gears up the gun and everything and they fire two rounds at each other alright we're down to hand to hand he does all this prep work for weapons and the thing he brings to fight with

is two wrenches that seems so unwieldy to have two yeah exactly and the wrench is his fucking thing the wrench is what he went to jail for manslaughter and how he becomes a criminal and it's retconned in nine and all that but it's just crazy that he's like two wrenches and then the shaw ripped two windshield wiper blades off the car? Yeah. And then it charges one. I bet they were like, just one wrench. And then in the choreography, it was like,

yo, I need both these wrenches. And then the statement was like, well, I'm not going to not have a wrench. I'll get this windshield wiper. I feel like that's how a lot of it goes. The Rock is off camera holding a wrench too Contractually He's not even in the scene

He's like I also You sumbitch I also get a wrench Okay We have to take a break This scene where Dom is like driving away from like the crashing fucking parking garage. The car flies again. It fucking flies.

We got to say that this movie feature these movies feature people eyeballing debris and saying, yep, that's a ramp. Like, oh, perfect. Like, we always show the character in Six. It's when Paul Walker is going to jump across it. He sees, like, a broken wall, and he's like, perfect. This is like a collapsed parking garage. Like, yep, I'll be able to hit the helicopter.

So it looks like this Charger is going to crash into the helicopter but it doesn't it just like grazes the bottom of it but what you don't see is dom put a backpack on the helicopter with a bag of grenades on it and i was like what how what what is his plan possibly that he sees the ramp sees the bag of grenades and he's like i'm just gonna start driving and i think by the time i get there i'll come up with an idea of how to get this i know he lives his life one quarter mile at a time and that is probably more than a quarter mile away but it just seems so crazy to be like worst case scenario i just crashed this car with a big bag of grenades inside of it yeah my plan b is it's not like also you charge all those grenades in the bag like you have to like take a second to go in like kind of push the buttons

on each one and then hobbs knows there's a backpack filled with grenades on the helicopter and shoots it Hobbs who couldn't take down the helicopter previously with a chain gun is able to fucking eyeball a knapsack full of grenades like the only thing that's missing from this song bitch is a bullet drink that that Terramano. Oh, shit. I thought I was just shooting a backpack. My God. And then Dom's car tumbles. This looks cool.

It looks scary. The way the car falls is good. It's wild. And he's unconscious. He's dead for a little bit. And he's unconscious. He's dead for a little bit. Is it kind of annoying that Paul Walker's last heroic act in this movie is plugging his phone into a tower?

The last thing the character gets to do in the entire franchise is charge his phone. Watching it this time, I'm like, ooh, man, this is a bummer that this is how he goes i feel like they were faking a lot of that stuff because they put him so separate from what was going on it feels like because he might have already been gone at that point i don't know yeah oh his whole little side mission where don't where tony jaw who escapes from the bus happens to be the guy that goes head-to-head with him again. Tony does such a good job of those flip kicks that look so cool.

I just love that Brian O'Connor wins by just shoving him down the floor. It's wild. Diesel gets that a lot, too. Shaw demonstrates insane hand-to-hand combat, and then Vin Diesel comes over and just grabs him by his shoulders and hooks him across the floor.

That looks so fun just to be able to throw karate guys around. That seems insane. Yeah. The fighting, I will say it is catered to the, to the like expertise of the person. Like Vin Diesel is not agile. So Vin Diesel gets to just throw people

around and throw his body around his body gets thrown around so much and i love when he changes he changes into a very tight long sleeve white shirt he only owns white shirts white tank tops and black tank tops and like for a mechanic that seems Yeah, you might get dirt. Oh, he does also own a blue button up that says Toretto because he wears that. He wears his work shirt 15 years after being like that. He's already been a prisoner, a criminal, a hero, a bank robber. He's like, I got to get back to fixing up people's cars. You know, Bayer, that's a great call

because I think a good example in this movie of they cater the choreography to the actor or the character is Hobbes versus Shaw in that opening sequence. Shaw's doing the knee kicks and all the cool Krav Maga short, and then The Rock does a rock bottom. He does the actual rock bottom rock bottom slamming him into coffee tables when I saw that

in the theater people went ape shit when he does the real which is Nicole no no that's his WWE wrestling move oh I didn't know that Statham through the table that was his old finishing move the rock bottom the people's champ told you so and he just fucking does it and you're like

whoa rock bottom rock bottom we have a reference to rock bottom in Detroiters People's champ told you so. And he just fucking does it. And you're like, whoa. Rock bottom. Rock bottom. We have a reference to rock bottom in Detroiters. And Tim's stepdad gets beat up by his brother, Connor O'Malley. And he's like, rock bottom. It's a move. It's a good fucking cool ass move.

It's wild. These later movies are very good theater movies like i took sashir to go see hobbs and shaw she didn't know anything she had never seen a fast and furious movie and she was like that was fucking fun and i was like yeah they're all fun is what i'm finding out now fast nine was like my first post pandemic movie theaters uh scene i went with like and i never i hadn't been to the theater in two years and i was like oh first post pandemic movie theater scene I went with like and I never I hadn't been to the theater in two years and I was like oh Fast 9's the perfect weight and I go and sit down I'm sitting with Tiff and I'm like

are you so hyped she goes I've never seen any of them I was like I should have asked you a little earlier we've been together for 20 years I've been in my office watching these movies fucking daily but honestly you don't really need to know anything you don't been in my office watching these movies fucking daily but honestly you don't really need to know anything you don't have to know you really don't it's a fucking

yes you actually can if you watch it without knowing anything about it you get a certain base level of enjoyment and then someone throws in the whole that's actually his brother and you're like i love that shit because like also like some some of like the the timeline stuff is then missing from us you're not like we're like wait a minute I love that shit. Some of the timeline stuff is then missing from it, so you're not worried like, wait a minute, is this person's necklace, you know what I mean? All that's missing from it. You're just like, oh shit, he's shooting that Gatling gun off the thing.

Oh, I like that part too, where it's like, and who's that? It's like, oh, you haven't met Hobbes yet, and you think it's going to be like a good line or something, and then he just goes, that's Hobbes. And it's that? It's like, oh, you haven't met Hobbes yet. And you think it's going to be like a good line or something. And Letty just goes, that's Hobbes. And he's like, I could say any line here. You're Letty. Your character is super tough and ambiguous.

We could have a joke. It could be real. It could be like, that's the Calvary, whatever. No, it's just Hobbes. That's Hobbes. That's his name. All right. Very good.

Well, thank you. I'm Ramsey. It's my pleasure. Let's keep name. All right, very good. Well, thank you. I'm Ramsey. Pleasure. Let's keep the God's Eye happening or whatever. So Hobbes arrests Deckard Shaw and locks him away in a remote high security prison, which seems like overkill. It's kind of wild. He was like, all of this.

He was like, yeah, because it's going to keep, this will kill you before I kill you or something. And I was like, all right, The Rock needs a nap. And you know, as someone who's seen Hobbs and Shaw, that they become friends eventually. Which is insane. I haven't seen it yet. Honestly, it's pretty wild. But like, there's a lot of like gay jokes in it,

if I remember correctly. Yeah, there's a lot of like gay jokes in it. If I remember correctly. Yeah. There's a lot of like misogynistic sort of like feminine is bad. Yeah. Yeah. And I was like, yeah, 2021 or whenever it's 2019. Like, come on, guys. It's OK.

Your family and Dom says family's good. So Tom and the crew are relaxing on a tropical beach because after all their big missions they either have to have a barbecue or sit somewhere and uh this got me they're all watching brian and mia play with the baby jack knowing that mia is pregnant with brian's kid knowing that brian is not gonna come back for the next movie. This got me. I was like, boy, oh boy. When he goes, Roman,

shut your mouth for a second and just look. Yeah. I was like, that felt like the realest shit. Like when you're like, when I was a kid and my dad be like, knock it off and pay attention to what this guy's saying. It's actually fucking cool. And you're like,

oh shit. And in that, in that moment, you're like, you quiet up and you're like, fuck, that's so heavy. And then it's like,

you're just going to leave without saying goodbye. Oh boy boy and a wife eater and white cabri pants as always well this one he's wearing a light blue shirt i clocked that i was like oh he's wearing a color now but boy oh boy and then when they you know go through all the memories and you see young brian i was like it really fucking got me yeah it's really incredibly touching it's it's also shows you how many people he's been in scenes with because the cast of these movies change so wildly and it's like holy shit yeah he did that with him you did that with him yeah you could fucking hang you're just like i thought you were the pretty face in this movie but i'm realizing now you're the fucking glue like you're like even he he exists still in the movies after

his death you know what i mean like he's referenced in a way that i think is just like a way you don't see it done in movies at all where it's like we know the actor's dead we're never going to replace him with someone else or anything like that but we're just keep saying like at least him and mia are off safe somewhere together you know what i mean or like yeah it's fucking cool man they do it really is and then you find out how close vin and paul were in real life and you don't realize like vin's daughter's name is paula after paul like this is like such fucking they're really good friends and the movie is a very good tribute to him it is a good tribute it is like a

really good send off but like truly when he was in that Supra I like lost it I was like oh boy it's an ode to the first movie it's the 10 second car he's gonna ride to heaven and they've been having that debate via Jack the Kid of American Muscle

versus Import Speed like they kept that argument and they've been having that debate via Jack, the kid of American muscle versus import speed. Like they kept that, they kept that argument up via the child, which is kind of intriguing. And then just, oh, fucking, it hits you really hard watching.

It's really sad. It really sucks. Like when Jen D'Angelo in, in the fast five episode mentions, she walked down the aisle to see you again. When she told, they had a fast five themed wedding oh my god that's right oh that's right and when she said that i was like

fuck i would have been bawling at your wedding and people would have been like wow i didn't know gabrus was that good of friends with jim deangelo no he just loves Paul Walker. So this movie has 82% certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. The budget was $190 million and it grossed $1.5 billion internationally. Good God. Holy shit. Good God. It just keeps growing. They like doubled the score of the last movie. that's fucking nuts good god that's so much

money that's wow so much fucking money wow it's a defense contract so this is the fastest movie to gross over one billion dollars it's yeah the fastest movie to gross over one billion dollars it surpassed avatar damn avatar 2 needs to come out. Where the fuck's Avatar 2? Where's that squeak wall? Where's that squeak wall? Oh, wow. So the Toyota Supra that Brian drives at the end of the movie actually belonged to Paul Walker.

Oh, fuck. That's so cool. Yeah, he probably bought that with his Too Fast money. He's like, I should have all the cars I drive in these movies. I should own them. I'm rich as fuck. I might as well be buying all these cars exactly wait a minute this is the first sequel in the series to take place chronologically after tokyo drift no it's not i think that's the idea right yeah is that it's supposed to be like oh yes my bad i'm yes okay now my head's on straight that was really hard for me to wrap my head around

for a couple seconds. It's just because what's-his-name is so old and it doesn't look like, it looks like it's 15 years. Lucas Black is like, he hasn't acted for like the 14 years in between Fast 3 and this too. Yeah, I had two failed drama, hour-long dramas. The majority of The Rock rock stunts were performed by i'm going to butcher this name to tanoa tanoa reed who is his uh body double and cousin yeah cousin sorry sorry to ruin that no

you didn't ruin anything you just know some trivia i tried that that that makes sense too because we know that uh the rock and vin diesel their beef is escalating in this one like they're having so they're like the rocks like fuck this i'll send my stunt double to do everything he's like i'm not gonna break my leg for this vin diesel asshole i'll let my cousin fucking like uh overall i mean this is a fun movie i do think it is a little too long with some storylines that like could have been truncated but it's like a good send-off for paul walker and his involvement in the franchise and it continues the pattern that starts in six in that weirdly named like MacGuffin evil apps and programs are the thing that they're trying to stop. It's literally in six,

seven, eight and nine are just like, they have the thing that can be bad. And it's like, we can't let them get that thing. It's like, well, that thing is in a car.

And it's like, all right. I mean, I just love that the bad guys are always putting shit in cars wait who had God's eye not Shaw was it

did you fucking Ramsey had sent it to her friend in Abu Dhabi who put it in the car and he sold the car but then the guy brings, this is the part of the movie that drives me crazy too. Mr. Nobody's right-hand man

is kind of the annoying proctor police academy character. Why does he bring the God's eye into the mission with him? They know where he is. It's like he's got it in his hand and he dies and it falls. And Shaw's like, it's right there. And Jimon Honsu's like, perfect. And it's like, wait, why do we have hansu's like perfect and it's like wait why do we have this in the room we get shit at the base

have someone call in where he is i don't think you need to like have the fucking usb stick with you yeah even just fix it by being like oh i forgot i had this and then as he's getting shot oh i'm still, I'm still holding this. I'm still holding this. Oh, my God, I'm so sorry. Oh, why do I have this? I'm sorry. It is rather wild. Yeah, this, I liked it, though. It's good.

I'm excited for Fast. Like, I'm very excited to see more of this. Or F8, I think, is next. Fate of the Furious. Oh, Fate. Oh, I'm sorry. Fate of the Furious. Which F8 is fate. Can't leave anything on the table if you laugh you have a table don't leave anything on it's not what i'm gonna do people just keep going up to vin diesel going hey what's the future of the

franchise is it this and he's like hey i'm not saying it's not it's like he's a genius businessman he's like it'll be whatever the fuck it needs to be if i keep making a billion dollars a movie universal is gonna keep me fed He's like, it'll be whatever the fuck it needs to be. If I keep making a billion dollars a movie, Universal is going to keep me fed. Sam, do you have anything to plug since we're at the end? You know, Tomorrow War on Amazon, Werewolves Within available on iTunes or Amazon and all these sort of things fun movies good times watch detroiters i gotta say i mean i love the detroiters i love champagne ill but

i was saying to you off off mic before it you're so good in the tomorrow war which is if you like if you're liking the fast and furious movies i think you'll like tomorrow war because it's a big ensemble movie that has so much shit going on in it that you're like, I'm not positive I'm following everything, but I like everybody

and I want Pratt to live. And then Sam is so fucking funny in it. And he's like, and that's what happens if you have comic relief that isn't a former Ralph Lauren model,

but an actual trained comic actor. you heard her here first, is coming for Tyrese. Oh no, Tyrese can have whatever he wants to have. I cannot stop watching the man. But I am a comedy writer and I can

make notes about that. Sam, you are good in what is it called? Tomorrow War? Tomorrow War, yeah. I did watch it. It was good. Those little creatures were scary. I didn't like them. They sure are. They were not fun for me.

When it's revealed that they can glide is such a fun, extra scary level thing. When you see that for the first time, it feels like, oh no, we're in trouble now. Yeah. If you want to rate and review the podcast, we'll read it on rate and review. Every time I laugh.
