Hobbs and Shaw

Honestly at this point... this may as well be part of the MCU with the stuff they’re doing

Elba is pretty much a super soldier, and the Rock is matching Cap fueled only on excess testosterone apparently

Man, Idris Elba will do anything for a paycheck.

Reminds me... when are we going to get a Tony Stark/Steve Rogers buddy cop movie??

He's a modern day Michael Caine.

If this movie’s climax doesn’t involve those two clinging to a rocket bound for space I’m giving it a half star.

About damn time.

I love this franchise even though it had strayed away from the original which blew my mind away (ye im a bit of a rev head).

This began with a cop street racing.

Ye i love that undergroud street racing culture movie.

Has any franchise change so much? First film was about illegal street racing....and the last two films were Mission Impossible saving the world movies. This new one has super villains with powers.

I could come up with all sorts of sequels.. everything from Aliens, to Chronicles of Riddick, to Rambo II. But for long franchises of multiple movies, I don't think even Friday the 13th changed vibe as much as this. You've also got the 'heist' era of Fast and Furious and it's two sequels which aren't anywhere near as out there as the last couple of "Mission Impossiblish" sequels (as you put it, lol)

I feel like the writers for these movies spend all day trying to outrageous each other’s action scenes. It’s one of those running work bets. Last place buys lunch.
This will surely replace Double Team as the greatest team up movie ever.

I wonder who came up with the idea of launching rare hypercars between skyscrapers? H. B. Halicki would be turning in his grave on that one..

Meh...I don’t care about this franchise anymore

It seems the blond actress in the trailer (Vanessa Kirby - had to google her) is the new favorite for this kind of film. First MI Fallout, now this. Not that I'm complaining...

The franchise should have died with Paul Walker.

I honestly don't even know what to say. Not that I've ever particularly cared about this franchise, and only seen a handful of them at best. But who on Earth greenlit this trailer. From a technical standpoint the tone is so ****ed it's not even funny.

This is just a spin-off.... like Lavern and Shirley.

I can't wait for Mork & Mindy...

Might be Elba and Theron.
