My partner and I have never seen any, and we're watching the Kyle Kinane special 'Dirtnap' now where he does a whole bit describing a typical F&F movie. We kinda wanna watch one now.

Which is the most ridiculous? We will not be watching any to get familiar with characters or plot, just gonna jump in.

2 Fast2 Furious was a bisexual awakening for me. Idk if others well have that reaction. But Paul Walker and Tyrese Gibson chemistry is off the hook in the film.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

2F2F is the most batshit because of how bad it is and how cartoonish it is. In the most recent one I think they go to space though, so it's equally batshit but less campy.

Idk dude I seen a couple of gay men working through the feelings of a break up and eventually ending up friends after Roman accepts O'Conner as bisexual.

I said forget about it cuh

Hobbs and Shaw definitely so far. The main villain is Idris Elba as a literal cybernetic supersoldier trying to unleash a supervirus that will kill half the global population

For the full effect though, you need to watch 1 first.

the one where a pedophile has a starring role and to this day everyone in the cast remembers him as such a great guy

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 9 points 3 weeks ago

the rule of thumb is later in the series is more insane

[–] Lavender@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The one where they steal TV/VCR combos

[–] Tabitha@hexbear.net 2 points 3 weeks ago

it's funny those were like $380 at the time of the film but one of the fastest things to become outdated and worthless.

[–] userofnames@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago

the only one i liked was tokyo drift

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

the one they went to space in a car i-cant

[–] buh@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I don’t know if this is real but I’m going to pretend it is because it’s funny as fuck to imagine

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

Whatever you imagine... Its even more ridiculous i-cant

[–] Gorillatactics@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The one where they were recruited by an intelligence agency. The FBI agent assigned to spy on them literally said you guys are cool want a job?

You should really watch the first one before anything else. Part of the absurdity of the series is how much it escalates as they go.

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

I've only seen 7, 1, and I think 3, in that order, and I think I agree, watch 1 and then one of the late-stage ones and then just imagine what could have possibly happened in between to connect those dots

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago

don't they fucking go to space in one?

[–] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 5 points 3 weeks ago

Fast and Furious X is probably the dumbest one. it's also the most recent. honestly i recommend seeing all of them because they're all dumb and weird for their own reasons

[–] LENINSGHOSTFACEKILLA@hexbear.net 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

They go to space in one, but they also drive on top of a nuclear sub that's breaking through icebergs at some point

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

oh shit, I think I saw that one. wasn't the initial set piece some crazy CIA mission / race to stop WMDs around some European city, like Paris or Florence? I remember cars blowing through ancient walls and hurtling over castles or something.

those movies are so spectacularly dumb my brain cannot catalogue anything about them. I think I've seen like 3 of them, but I couldn't tell you which ones or what happened with a gun to my head.

[–] LENINSGHOSTFACEKILLA@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I've seen them all, and can only vaguely remember the plot of the first 3 or 4. From 4 on, they get very muddy

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

I don't know how people do it. I'm pretty good at remembering plot and context details from movies, including action flicks.

but these movies are too bonkers for me to parse. it's like trying to follow some 6 year old's story about what happened at the playground.

[–] gingerbrat@hexbear.net 5 points 3 weeks ago

The only "good" ones are the first and Fast Five, meaning they're the least ridiculous. I'd recommend watching anything from 8 to 10 or the one with Jason Statham and The Rock ("Shaw and Hobbs")

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

Next one gonna involve time travel and they're gonna need to race against fred flintstone to get info on the great gazoo

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 1 points 3 weeks ago

I've only watched Fast 4, but would strongly recommend reading 2 Trans 2 Furious to up your enjoyment of the movies
