All Fast All Furious

Like that title? Its what I came up with for the 6th movie in the franchise. I finished waching all five of them now with a double bill today of 'Fast and Furious' and 'Fast Five'. Was a good idea too as 'Fast Five' directly follows on from the previous. (and by that, I mean the ending scene of F&F is pretty much the start scene of F5).

With this I am FINALLY clear of the movie timeline. It is as follows (well for now at least):

• The Fast and the Furious
• 2 Fast 2 Furious
• Fast and Furious
• Fast Five
• Tokyo Drift

As the Japanese guy at the end of F5 is on his way to Tokyo after he visits Berlin. But what becomes of his new girlfriend then? she is not in TD.

I have fully enjoyed all of the movies, yes including TD. You see when I first saw TD I wasn't that pleased with it. Same with 2F2F for that matter, as they kept dropping cast members. But now with the latest ones having the full cast, I can see and appreciate how 2F2F and TD fit into the whole story.

Oh and one thing I didn't notice when I saw it at the cinema (as then it had been AGES since I saw the other ones) the undercover cop lass from 2F2F appears in the mid credits scene at the end of F5!

Also some random trivia: in TD there are two fishermen watching the main guy (Lucas Black) practice his drifting. They have nothing really to do with anything, they are just random fishermen making comments about his bad drifting. And when he gets it right, one of them says something like "he's good!". Well that guy is the REAL LIFE drift king in Japan! holy shit!

They are making a 6th one, will be due in 2013 or 2014. I really hope that they set it after TD, and have Lucas Black as his new crew member at least just to clarify the time line of the movies. It wouldn't make any sense at all for the Japanese guy to be in it as he dies in a car crash in TD, and at the end of F5 he is on his way to Tokyo after he visits Berlin. ALTHOUGH they could still get away with it without destroying the time line by setting the 6th one in Berlin. But they wouldn't be that stupid.... right?

There are a few strange continuity things like for example at the end of 2F2F, the guy and his friend take some of the evidence money to go and open a shop for car stuffs or something. But yet in F&F the guy has reenlisted and is now a fed, and his friend is no where in sight. And when his friend appears again in F5, there is no explanation as to what happened between the two of them.

I suppose you could use your imagination: the money ran out, they went their separate ways, then the guy needs a job so he reenlists. Or maybe big foot stomped on their shop.... or maybe an alien ship landed on the shop or... or....

So yeah the 6th one will be about Dom's girl friend as she was spotted on some CCTV (she supposedly got killed off in F&F) and why she didn't contact him or whatever.

Thanks for reading!
