Dwayne Johnson Talks FAST SIX and SEVEN!!
Merrick here...
Dwayne Johnson - whose now-in-theaters JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND I saw over the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed (a special tip of the hat to Andrew Lockington's score) - spoke with MTV about the production of FAST SIX and FAST SEVEN. These represent the sixth and seventh entries in the FAST AND THE FURIOUS franchise.
Originally, there was some consideration given to shooting both installments back-to-back, as the two pictures are apparently one big story that got divided into two parts (per Vin Diesel HERE). Seems plans now call for the movies to be made separately. Johnson reveals he'll be filming in U.K. and Germany (although doesn't mention which location is attached to which film - or if both locations will appear in both movies). He also shushes up the MTV guy in one of the funniest interview moments I've seen in some time.

Tell me MERRICKS, does this site have a fucking spell check for the authors? Because your article is fucked. the entire first paragraph is one awkwardly worded sentence. You say =consderation= instead of consideration.
The first sentence of the 3rd paragraph reads =Seems plans now call for the movies to be made seperately.= It should be =It seems that the current plan is for the films to be made seperately=. -
Hate it.

Clive Owens, Dwayne Johnsons... what's next? Liam Neesons?
-
Hated Parts 3 & 4, but 5 was exactly what it needed. Not too comic booky, but fun still.

Reminds me of the old Michael Cole/Jonathan Coachman takedowns of years past
I still can't see Coach on ESPN without thinking of The Rock humiliating him on a weekly basis -

I don't know what the Rock is cooking. But I know what he's injecting.

It's steroids.

This is getting sad.

As long as they're not athletes, I don't care (not saying that you do). In fact, I really don't care that much in general.
And we need a separate, roided-up Olympics. I'm sick of seeing what the human body can do when pushed to its "natural" limits. Let's juice up Usain Bolt, and see how close he can get to a 9-second 100 meters -
Not the midgit (excuse me, little person) Tom Cruise.

OVERSEAS, MUSCLE CARS, EXOTICS AND SUPERCARS, no all they need is a kick ass plot!

And it smells like shit

Yeah, they have to shoot these back to back, because the story is so fucking epic....
by orbots commander
...it spans three movies.
The movies are what they are, and they're shot and edited well and successful, but they're fricking racing car action movies that border on the inane, storywise.
Let's not pretend it's Tolkien. -

The Rock is positively Vin-esque in how he speaks of his silly little action movies with such gravitas.
by franky 5 fingers
As an actor, he makes Wahlberg look like Daniel Day Lewis.
The Rock is a good-looking son of a bitch, and likeable to boot, but I can't shake the feeling that he's a prim, haughty frathead who plays the part of the jokester to endear himself to the people he knows are beneath him. I had a roommate like that, so maybe I'm just traumatized.

Check out some of his stuff on Netflix.
-
I like that so many of the main players are all back together again. And that the racing motif has gone by the way-side, which worked in the first one but would get old fast.
I watched Tokyo Drift about a year ago and it was much more enjoyable than I thought it would be. So far the only Fast & Furious movie I dislike alot is the second one, which was garbage(IMO). -
it was fun while you watched it but seriously i think they should have combined the two aspects, like drifting was good but a straight up old style drag race is awesome. just put obstacles in their way and it practically writes itself...
I think everyone needs to just accept these movies for what they are mindless car mayhem and fun. fuck the oscar nominated bullshit. -
BOOOOOOORRRRRING

I bet he likes to stuff his african-samoan peepee into pineapples in front of a MIRROR imaGINING HOW GREAT HE IS! I bet him and Hulk Hogan suck eachothers DICK!!!!

I still think in real life The Rock would lay the smacketh down on Vin Diesel's candy ass...
by maxcherry
I like Vin Diesel, I just think The Rock would win in a real fight

@franky 5 fingers, The Rock isn't a fratboy. He is a former football player and professional wrestler….
by maxcherry
fratboys and athletes have completely different personalities.
