i was planning to watch this series again before the release of the new one. visiting a friend at the weekend and she really wanted to put this on. who am i to disagree? i can probably think of a way to make it viable to watch the series in the order 6, 1, 2, 4, 5, 3, 7 as the makers of this series clearly have no qualms in making shit up as they go along. it's the only way to explain how two characters return from the dead. han clearly dies at the end of 3 and then reappears in sequels that then turn out to be prequels to that movie. these guys have balls. fast & furious (i think) had a sequence where dom used his amazing sense of driving and interpretation of scratch marks to exactly determine how letty died. there was a whole sequence which told us how awesome dom was at working this crap out. this movie says forget that shit we said, this is what actually happened. it was pretty close but we're going to change one thing to make this workable but not really explain the whole thing. han's love dies but everyone is celebrating getting back letty who still has fuck all memory of anything. they actually ask her if she remembers anything and she straight up says no. the fucking balls on this production crew are amazing. that's after the world famous chase sequence on a 50 miles long runway which culminated in vin diesel outing himself as the t-1000. there's no other possibility to explain how he managed to drive a car out the front of a burning plane, crash it, survive without a scratch and then casually wander through the wreckage of a burning plane. there is aviation fuel on fire everywhere. that stuff burns at something like 1000°c and he just ambles through that shit without a care in the world.
