Can you explain your self? Yes they are getting out of control with the action scenes but still cool to watch especially since these movies are what started the rise of the import scene in the states.

the true tuners started before fnf when it was very much a underground and rare thing to see.back then you could also do anything you wanted to your car and not be called a ricer for it even though most started out as pretty much ricers.Now theres rules.R.I.P 90,s tuner scene.

Exactly how I feel..when the first one came out I didn't even have a license so I'm not OG status I guess but from what I've seen that movie is what mainly started it all for the import guys in my opinion.yes there was people before the movie in the scene but nothing like it was after.

i also disagree with this. back then "ricers" were still called "ricers". tho now days alot of the things "ricers" were made fun of or targeted for are "accepted" by the younger people coming up behind the older guys.

the first 2 were good, only because i was so young when they came out, but even now i realize theyre terrible and only have nostalgic value
anything after that has just been typical action movie garbage lol

Agreed. The first one is nostalgic & so terrible that it's fun to watch. But I think Tokyo Dirft has a bit of nostalgia attached to it for the drift fans. I think that one was really the series' last love letter to actual car enthusiasts. The rest are just action fodder with cool cars sprinkled in.

I just accept them as entertainment. I was 16-17 when the first one came out, and from all the time playing gran turismo and reading magazines, i used to rant about all the problems. But now they are just entertaining action movies. They moved away from the import street racing stuff.

Looks even more ridiculous than the other ones. Probably will see this one as well. Best part is going to the theaters and seeing all the Civics and Mustangs rip out of there after seeing Brian O'Connor shift 3000 times.
I think of these movies as Action Comedies where the characters sometimes drive "tuner" cars haha. |

If I can be really honest, I enjoy these movies less the further they move away from the actual car scene. Yes, they are a higher quality of action movie than earlier in the franchise but now... they're just generic action movie fodder. The last 2 movies I saw in the theater, the parking lot didn't look at a car show the way it used to back in the day. It's just not the same. The franchise isn't the love letter to car enthusiasts that it used to be. But every body has to grow up sometime.

I love how some ppl hate on this movie and call others idiots for enjoying it. Its a fucking action movie..not a documentary or based on real events.

I think these movies have gotten better and better the further away they get from the tuner appeal and more into action movie entertainment, from Rio onward. Back when the first movie came out it brought some embarrassment to me driving my car. I made sure I didn't happen to drive near some theater and accidentally get caught up in the middle of the dip shit scene. But the one thing about these movies that made them so fucken stupid, even more then what people did with their cars outside the theaters, was the idea of killing one of the main characters then making up some retarded story to bring that person back in the next movie. I for one am glad there's one character that's been killed off for good.

They are not filling any roles in other movies. They were filling some scene for this movie and had Paul Walker's face applied via CGI along with a voice actor to speak the lines.
