Vin Diesel names his daughter after his late pal Paul Walker

Vin Diesel naming his daughter after his best buddy Paul Walker squashes any debate on the rumored feud between the two Fast and Furious stars. Paul Walker appeared as a good guy to many. His good American looks made him a top pick on most female lists of the hottest men in the world. There's no question Paul Walker attracted countless female fans to his past movies.

Vin named his daughter Pauline, a really nice girl name that resembles Paul. He admits that Paul's presence inspired him to name his daughter Pauline. It is a bond these two friends will share forever.

Paul Walker was a genuine person who never made magazine covers for his antics. He represented the face of Fast and Furious movies, which Vin Diesel later returned to in Fast & Furious to re-energize this beloved racing movie franchise. His cameo appearance in Tokyo Drift set-up the plot twist that is finally connecting us fans to present time.

As we know, Han is gone. Jason Statham is playing the brother of Owen Shaw, who is on a revenge mission to avenge his brother's death. James Wan, horror movie director, with Saw, Insidious, The Conjuring and Insidious Chapter 2 to his name, is sure to make Furious 7 an awesome experience.

In the meantime, we can show respect for Vin Diesel naming his daughter after his best friend and honoring his memory forever. What an admirable act on Vin Diesel's part.

Furious 7 is set to release in movie theaters next weekend. It will become a certified blockbuster on Sunday, where this movie will likely pass the $100 million mark domestically. There is more to come, so watch the race next week.

Well done Vin! You are a great person. Paul Walker is proud of you.

1 weeks away! Furious 7 opens next weekend

Furious 7 is on tap for next weekend. This seventh installment to the highly anticipated street racing movie franchise represents Paul Walker's last stand ever. Unfortunately, Paul Walker passed away in a fiery car accident in Valencia, California in 2013. This tragedy stalled out Furious 7 until the studio, director James Wan, and the rest of the FF team could figure out the right path to take with Furious 7.

Based on the recent movie trailers, Furious 7 is ready to make a huge splash next weekend. When we say huge, we are talking about massive box office ticket sales. This Furious 7 movie will make big money in its first 3-days in release. Midnight showings will start the race off, carrying forward well into the weekend box office.

Major actors are starring in Furious 7. Kirk Russell and Jason Statham joined the Fast and Furious movie franchise. We suspect Lucas Black will reappear in Furious 7, adding another dimension to this complex plot line established in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.

See yall next weekend. Furious 7 opens on April 4, 2015.

Furious 7 is on tap in less than 8 weeks

Furious 7 is scheduled to be released on April 3, 2015, exactly 7 weeks from Friday the 13th. FF fans are anxiously anticipating the seventh installment to this electrifying movie franchise.

BoxOffice.com is predicting Furious 7 to earn $115 million in its opening weekend and $260 million cumulative. Based on a massive fan base, as shown by 54+ million Facebook likes and counting, Furious 7 can race ahead of projections and deliver a much higher opening weekend and cumulative total.

Furious 7 will say goodbye to Han, a character we enjoyed watching in Fast and Furious movies. He has starred in 5 Fast & Furious movies, including Furious 7.

We welcome Kirk Russell and Jason Statham to Fast and Furious movies. The fast adrenaline ride is on tap this April 3, 2015. The countdown to this Furious 7 movie opening is 51 days from today.

Fast & Furious 7 is now in post-production. FF fans are eagerly awaiting the birth of Fast and Furious 7, the last Paul Walker movie due out in theaters on April 3, 2015. This high octane racing and heist movie combined these genre ingredients to drive the franchise into mega stardom. Paul Walker and Vin Diesel represented Fast and Furious movies with the highest respect, pouring their hearts into these awesome films since the high powered The Fast and the Furious movie glorified street racing in 2001.

James Wan joined Fast and Furious last year after delivering two knockout punches in the box office. The Conjuring and Insidious Chapter II both opened at $40+ million in the weekend box office, representing box office records for one director in the same year. No director before James Wan has opened two movies in the same year at $40+ million, let alone having two movies falling into the horror genre. James Wan and Paul Walker instantly clicked, where Walker shared in an interview before his passing that he considered James a "G" for his work ethics and confidence.

The unexpected death of the Fast and Furious protagonist, Paul Walker, changed the dynamics of this FF movie series. The rumor mill is churning talk, with recent news circulating on Film Blend, that Fast and Furious 7 may represent the last Fast and Furious movie ever. According to this film website, the stress of delivering the best possible movie under extreme conditions (Paul Walker's passing), exhausted the cast and crew. Moving forward without the franchise star could decrease interest over time.

We never doubted that Fast and Furious 7 would propel, even with one of our favorite Fast and Furious stars gone forever. Dating back to Fast & Furious, this film series has outperformed itself time-after-time again. Weekend box office numbers for Fast & Furious 7 are expected to grab $115+ million. It wouldn't surprise us if Fast and Furious 7 generates $300+ million in its overall domestic box office and nearly $1 billion worldwide.

Fast and Furious 7 has raced off to 45,867,448 Facebook likes. This is impressive! The high number of likes indicate that Fast and Furious has a huge following. If we convert these Facebook numbers into movie ticket sales, then we are looking at over $600+ million in ticket sales. This does not factor in fans who want to watch the movie multiple times and those who don't use Facebook.

Fast and Furious 7 will be the biggest story of 2015. It will make its way onto the silver screen post-Paul Walker. As Film Blend shared, this film is more about a tribute to Paul Walker than anything else. Watch Fast and Furious 7 in theaters on April 3, 2015. Keep an eye on this website for upcoming news. #GoFF7

It's a Wrap! Fast & Furious crew finishes up shooting Fast & Furious 7 and is now in Post-Production

Fast & Furious 7 is now in Post-Production. James Wan and his team are working on completed production material to package this much anticipated FF movie in a major blockbuster. Since the late Paul Walker is no longer here with us, Universal Studios, producers and James Wan held meetings on how to handle this tragedy. With emotions set aside, Universal Studio green lighted Fast & Furious 7 production and this film is now being cut. This Fast & Furious 7 movie will be a tribute to the late Paul Walker.

Many Fast and Furious movie fans mourned the death of their favorite FF star. It saddened them to see any news coverage on Paul Walker's death. We were deeply affected by this shocking news. It is surreal to think that this will be the last time we watch Paul Walker at the movies.

Several months after Paul Walker's passing, James Wan has now completed production of Fast & Furious 7. According to Cinema Blend, Vin Diesel and crew wrote a heartfelt love letter to Paul Walker and FF fans. This letter proves how genuine these performers actually are and how they treat their co-stars and fans like a family. There is cohesiveness in every movie. Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, and cast members went out on the junket to promote Fast & Furious movies with excitement and respect.

We can consider Fast and Furious movies a part of our family. We get lost in the adventures these FF movies deliver us. The viewing experience is always rewarding, no matter if this is our first run or multiple runs into the FF race. Fast and Furious movies are what make Hollywood a dream land.

We dream to become our best. Dom is a gifted racer who refuses to lose. Brian never gave up trying to beat Dom, Their on-scene bond made these racing movies the best experience. The Fast and the Furious (2001) movie overcame the odds to win out in the box office with a massive $41 million in its first weekend. The ride has never stopped since then. Paul Walker continued to move the franchise forward with 2 Fast 2 Furious. This movie scored a knockout on its first weekend and preserved this series.

We assumed Tokyo Drift would slow down the franchise. Think again. This change of scenery added another dimension, another dynamic to the plot. We were treated to Fast and Furious movies going backwards to reveal backstories and predetermined events prior to Tokyo Drift. We learned about Han. We learned more about Dom and his loyalty for his family. If Dom accepted you, everyone respected you.

What many thought wouldn't move forward after the passing of Paul Walker, it is now a reality. In 9 months from now, James Wan will give birth to Fast & Furious 7. This wide release on April 3, 2015 is expected to break box office records. FF fans know this is the last time they will see Paul Walker on the silver screen. Fast & Furious 7 is Paul Walker's last movie ever.

We can't wait until April 3, 2015 to watch Fast & Furious 7. James Wan is a brilliant director. We enjoyed his past work in Saw, Insidious, The Conjuring and Insidious Chapter 2. However, Wan's Dead Silence is on the lower end of these great horror movies listed above. Fast & Furious 7 is James Wan's first major action movie, so this release will show us his visionary directorial gift in motion.

As mentioned in this Cinema Blend article, the author believes that Fast and Furious 7 will represent the last film in this series. Because the death of Paul Walker, the crew struggled to finish production. Making Fast & Furious 8  & 9 may not make sense for this crew anymore. It is not the same without Paul Walker's energy. His physical presence is longer around to inspire them, only his memory.

If this Fast & Furious 7 movie is the last, get out there and watch it as many times as possible to pay tribute to Paul Walker. Thank Vin Diesel for delivering the best performances of his movie career. Show gratitude for all Fast and Furious crew members that entertained us for the past 14 years (by the time the movie is released next year).

Awesome work Fast & Furious crew for completing production on Fast 7!

RIP Paul Walker: Thank you for inspiring us to believe in life beyond our ourselves.

Fast & Furious 7: Han funeral scene

Paul Walker's Brian O'Connor character is shown attending Han's funeral. Vin Diesel pays his respect to his good friend Han, and then is distracted by a slow moving race car riding through the cemetery.

Check out the last role Paul Walker will star in - Fast and Furious 7:

Lucas Black in Fast 7

For those of you who are wondering whether Lucas Black will return to Fast and Furious movies, well the answer is yes. Exclusive photos have surfaced showing Lucas Black's Sean character on set with Vin Diesel and director James Wan at a funeral scene. This scene with Vin Diesel and Tyrese appears to be Han's funeral. You can view these photos on FilmThrasher.com or here.

Lucas Black left a major impact on Fast and Furious movies franchise. Starring in only The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, we see this drift racer carrying the franchise on his back. This crafty racer film definitely put Lucas Black on the Fast and Furious map. From the looks of it, we notice that Lucas Black is passionate about racing because we have seen him in many photos with suped-up cars.

Fast and Furious 7 is on tap for a release date next April 2015. In essence, this movie schedule is basically on track to reflect what Justin Lin proposed before stepping down from directorial duties (requesting 2 years or more to make Fast and Furious movies). We welcome James Wan to the Fast and Furious family. However, we had to endure the loss of Paul Walker in tragic accident which took his life and his best friend Roger Rodas. James Wan, FF crew, movie studios, and the countless fans across the world grieved this loss. Now we have a shot at seeing Paul Walker's brothers contribute to their older brother's favorite movie role as Brian O'Conner.

We are thrilled to see a major director such as James Wan assuming control of Fast and Furious 7. Wan's understanding of making solid movies give us hope that Fast and Furious 7 will become the most successful movie of the FF franchise. This extreme talent had a career-defining moment to direct Paul Walker in what will represent his last movie ever.

Lucas Black is set to return as Sean Boswell, the new DK. Will the former DK make an appearance? After the previous 3 Fast and Furious movies, we finally get to see the Tokyo Drift plot connect the dots. Sean knows that Han is a straight-shooter in his dealings; Han is all about respect. This is probably the motivation that brings Sean back, as the death of Han is connected to Owen Shaw's brother Ian Shaw, played by Jason Statham.

Will there be drifting in Fast 7? What can we expect from Jason Statham, The Transporter actor who knows a thing or two about driving cars? Djimon Hounsou, the star from Blood Diamond, is also starring in Fast & Furious 7. Based on the IMDb page, Kurt Russell will be a part of Fast 7.

Fast and Furious 7 is set to be released on April 10, 2015.

In gear for a Fast weekend at the movies: Fast & Furious 6 in review

Fast & Furious 6 is opening up this weekend. Fast and Furious movie fans await the domestic movie premiere of Fast and Furious 6. International fans have already experienced the fast ride, so expect the domestic release of Fast and Furious 6 to speed down the box office road with a first place finish against stiff competition.

In a memorable weekend box office, Fast & Furious 6 will account for nearly a third of all movie tickets sold during the highly anticipated Memorial Day weekend. Fast 6 is racing to become the top Fast and Furious movie ever. Fast Five posted a franchise record in 2011, making the fifth movie the most profitable of the bunch. However, Fast & Furious 6 will have a good lead in its opening weekend. Fast Five opened up above $85 million in 2011. 

Fast & Furious 6 is expected to outperform Hangover Part III. With Iron Man 3, The Great Gatsby, and the new Star Trek movie also showing in theaters this weekend, the expectations are high to deliver a record weekend. Vin Diesel and Paul Walker have equally starred in five Fast and Furious movies, though Vin Diesel only makes a cameo appearance in Tokyo Drift. 

Who would have ever though The Fast and the Furious released in 2001 could spark five more movies? It is shocking that Fast and Furious movies have a millions of fans getting ready for the domestic movie premiere. Most movie websites are predicting Fast & Furious 6 will earn above $100 million. We believe Fast and Furious 6 will finish above $110 million over the Memorial Day weekend, minus Monday's potential earnings. 

Michelle Rodriguez is returning to Fast and Furious movies as a villain. She supposedly died in Fast & Furious 6, but somehow survived the car crash. Fast Five showed a twist ending with Letty caught on camera pulling a heist job. Another interesting addition to the plot is that Dom is dating the hot Elena. How will Dom resolve this triangle? Mia is pregnant with Brian's baby. Han and Gisele continue on with their romance, though the popular Korean actor's character mentions wanting to go to Japan. 

Fast & Furious 6 is full of surprises. There is plenty of action, comedy and stunts to keep moviegoers busy the entire 2 hours.  Have a fast weekend at the movies!
