FAST FIVE

Universal Pictures is hitting the accelerator on a fifth installment of "Fast and Furious," titled "Fast Five."

Studio has closed deals with Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, director Justin Lin and producer Neal Moritz to return to the franchise, which has become one of the studio's most lucrative.

Diesel and Walker sat out the third chapter in the series but returned for last year's fourth installment, which was the highest-grossing "Fast and Furious" film and Universal's top grosser of 2009. Its box-office haul was more than $350 million worldwide.

Chris Morgan is writing "Fast Five," marking the third time he and Lin have teamed for a "Fast and Furious" film. The story finds protags Dom (Diesel) and Brian (Walker) as fugitives being pursued by legendary lawmen.

Lensing will begin later this year for a 2011 release.

Worst name yet, but I'll definitely see it.
They really need to spin Tokyo Drift off into it's own series though.

 

[Oreoleo]

You've got to be fucking kidding me.


I knew Diesel and Walker were hard up for money when they did the last one, but I assumed it would be the LAST ONE. They must be REALLY hard up for money.

Edit: Not that I've seen any of these abortions they call "movies" except for the first when it came out LIKE A DECADE AGO. FUCK.

 

[Costanza]

 

[Spike Spiegel]

Not 'Fa5t and the Furiou5'?

 

[clav]

Is this fucking real?

What the fuck.

 

[VOOK]

Hopefully this one has more than one street racing scene.

 

[G-Fex]

Oh my god the angry video game nerd was right.

 

[Deleted member 22576]

Not 'Fa5t and the Furiou5'?

That won't be until 2100 probably. :lol

 

[Gospel]

It could be worse.

edit:Oh didn't see the legendary lawmen part.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Best they could come up with honestly.

 

[VGChampion]

I've yet to see 4. I lost interest after Tokyo Drift. It was better than I thought it would be but I couldn't get over the main character.

2 is my favorite though. :lol

 

[DMczaf]

It's Thelma and Louise with street racers

 

[jakncoke]

Did they have a board meeting and go. " Guys...I want you to think of the worst title ever" FAIL!

Watch part 4, it's great.

 

[Archaix]

I think it was more along the lines of "Guys...I want you to think of the worst movie ever. Now make a fourth sequel to it."

 

[Zep]

Was hoping they would make another Tokyo Drift..Its better than the other three.

 

[kaskade]

IM IN YOUR FACE pic

Knew that was coming :lol

Dumb name, will see.

 

[Blablurn]

i'm looking forward to it! btw, tokyo drift was the best one so far. but i also love the other movie. great franchise <3

 

[koam]

Dumb movie has dumb name, news at 6.

Is the Jersey Shore cast in this one?

 

[Buckethead]

Has Vin Diesel come out yet?
Because.... c'mon.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Shit never gets old.

:lol so you have such a strong opinion yet you haven't seen any of the last 3 movies?

 

[jakncoke]

haha yeah. I just hope the 6th FF has a better name

 

[Hellion]

Please tie this into Tokyo Drift.

They've much killed all the actors in the Franchise I cared about except Vin.

P.S Vin Diesel needs money for Hannibal the Conqueror.

 

[noisome07]

:lol so you have such a strong opinion yet you haven't seen any of the last 3 movies?

Yea, seriously. All of the movies are great. Specially the latest one.

 

[Oreoleo]

:lol so you have such a strong opinion yet you haven't seen any of the last 3 movies?

Correct. Wanna fight about it?

 

[Masta_Killah]

Lin's directing? Will watch.

 

[SmashBrosAwesome]

Not 'Fa5t and the Furiou5'?

"F45T F1V3"

Fucking movie elitists

 

[Tokubetsu]

Seeing as how I REALLY enjoyed all the films save the 2nd, I'll be there day one.

 

[EBCubs03]

Fucking movie elitists

Trash is trash no matter what kind of person calls it trash

 

[GDGF]

Title sounds like a handjob.

 

[sixteen-bit]

oh god they're still making these

i think i was like 12 when the first one came out and i could barely finish the thing

 

[xtheEnemy]

legendary lawmen

:lol

 

[wenis]

Finally! is all i have to say.

 

[G-Fex]

So legendary lawmen meaning...what?

Judge Dredd and John Spartan?


Or Tango and Cash?

I'd love both ideas actually.

 

[yencid]

legendary... I better see some Robocop and judge dredd up in this bitch

So legendary lawmen meaning...what?

Judge Dredd and John Spartan?


Or Tango and Cash?

I'd love both ideas actually.

FUCK MAN! beaten :[

 

[Dresden]

The legendary lawmen will probably be evil asians. Then you'll have one sympathetic asian character who'll impress diesel by doing donuts in the parking lot. He'll then die, leading to a climatic confrontation with diesel and walker racing against the said evil group of asians. Then their cars will explode.

 

[KamenSenshi]

whats with the love for tokyo drift? other than having sailor mars i didnt think it was this well loved. can't really see how it compares to the first.

 

[Gaz Pwnage]

Jack Slater and John Spartan

 

[ChubbyHuggs]

It could be worse.

edit:Oh didn't see the legendary lawmen part.

That's where I lost it, couldn't stop laughing.
:lol :lol

 

[jey_16]

i think i liked Tokyo drift just because it was half-decent compared to the crap that was 2 Fast 2 Furious

Fast and Furious did nothing for me though

 

[-COOLIO-]

jordana brewster is hot as fuck. is she back?

Fast Furious Hexagons:

Dom and Brian are framed by Triads who are smuggling in parts from the black market. Now, they are out for revenge while trying to evade a hot-shot rookie new to the force. Their only hope - a new car rigged with hexagon super NOS.

 

[C-Jo]

The dumber the better, I can't fucking wait. :lol

 

[Deleted member 22576]

I actually really like the premise. If these lawmen truly are legendary, then they better have some kickass driving skills. In fact, they should be better drivers than Diesel and Walker.. and chase them accross the country.

 

[chubigans]

I was hoping for Fast/Furious. Phooey.

 

[Hawk SE]

I don't care, I'll watch it. They're not cinematic masterpieces, but damn good entertainment.

 

[BobFromPikeCreek]

Is Tokyo Drift as hilarious as it looks?
