Fast and Furious Ride at Universal Studios Hollywood

Universal Studios Theme Park revealed a new Fast and Furious ride is on tap to open next Summer 2015. It will give FF fans an adrenaline ride to experience; what the movie actors experience on the set. It will feel as if you're driving at speeds in excess of 100 m.p.h.

Universal Studios is the premiere movie entertainment destination in the world. It is the site of many hit television and movie productions. Fans are treated to actual outdoor sets where movies are shot on location. Fast and Furious is Universal Studios' highly popular and profitable movie franchise.

Several years ago, I got to see several Fast and Furious cars on display at Universal Studios. These were the cars that were used in the first three FF movies. I'm definitely looking forward to take the Fast and Furious ride at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Fast & Furious 7 is due out in movie theaters on April 3, 2015. Its release date was move up a week. We can expect Fast and Furious 7 to break some weekend records in April of next year. We're ready for this new Fast and Furious ride next Summer in Hollywood, California.

Paul Walker Tribute Video

Fast & Furious 7 production shuts down for now

Fast and Furious movie star Paul Walker died in a horrific car crash this past weekend in Santa Clarita, California. Sadly, we lost one of our favorite Fast and Furious actors and also a great person who took part in charity functions without asking credit for his good deeds. Unfortunately, Walker's movie world mimicked his real life.

According to Variety and other news reports, Universal Studios has decided to halt production of Fast and Furious 7. As of right now, Fast and Furious 7 will cease shooting and potentially undergo extensive script rewrites to decide what to do about Paul Walker's untimely death and his role in this lucrative movie franchise. 

We will keep you all updated once we hear anything about the future production of Fast & Furious 7. In the meantime, we pay tribute to Paul Walker as a great actor and as a great person. May Paul rest in peace and know his fans miss his presence.

We remember Paul Walker

In great sadness, we lost Paul Walker yesterday afternoon in Santa Clarita, California to a fiery crash that took the life of this truly awesome actor. I lived in this Santa Clarita city (Valencia) for 7 years, which makes this tragedy even more hard to accept.

I was shocked to learn of Paul Walker's passing from a text message my brother sent me in the late evening. Usually, I hear this type of news right way. However, I had no idea Walker died in a horrific car crash.

Paul Walker started acting in television in 1986. He bursted on the movie scene in the 90's, where he earned critical acclaim in Varsity Blues. Walker starred opposite Freddie Prinze Jr. in She's All That, another teenage flick this actor used to fuel his future roles.

We all know Paul Walker as Brian O'Conner in Fast and Furious movies. It is Walker's signature role in these high octane racing movies that remind us of his amazing talent. Fast and Furious 7 is currently filming, so this tragedy amplifies the loss of Paul Walker.

Paul Walker died at the age of 40. We are shocked and numb, Walker left us too early. We will always remember you.

Rest in Peace Paul Walker.

Han Lue is a super popular Fast and the Furious character. He made his first appearance in Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, the last Fast and the Furious movie in the plot design. What car does Han Lue drive in the death scene in the Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift?

Han drives a supercharged orange/black Veilside RX7 in his death scene. The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift star and Sean outrun DK in the master scene. DK, Han, and Sean race down the road in excess of 130 mph. The Veilside RX7 powers down the freeway, showing the super fast car on display.  

Fast and the Furious: What Happened to Letty in Fast and Furious?

Justin Lin's Fast and the Furious movie franchise produced five high-adrenaline racing movies. Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) is one of the most popular Fast and the Furious characters. Fast and the Furious movie fans ask, "What happened to Letty?" Where is Letty Ortiz?  

Letty took a drug runner job to move drugs under the Mexican border and into the United States. She accepts the drug runner job to keep the family together after Dom leaves to keep them safe. While attempting to outrun Braga's associate and drug frontrunner Fenix. Dom's love flame Letty supposedly loses control and crashes on a dark desolate road. Letty is trapped in the car, covered with lacerations on her face. Fenix aims and shoots Letty dead.  

Fast and the Furious movie fans are confused about Letty's whereabouts. Letty presumably dies when Fenix shoots and kills her while trapped in a wrecked car. We never see Letty die, instead Dom imagines Letty's death in his mind. The film technique is to trick moviegoers in thinking Letty dies in a car crash/shooting event. The screenwriter and director utilize the visual technique to narrate Letty's death. 

We learn that Letty is alive. Fast and Furious tricks FF fans into believing Letty is dead. The truth is out there. Soon enough, you will see a surprise cameo in the Fast Five movie ending to explain what happened to Letty Ortiz. Fast and the Furious 6 is due out in movie theaters in May 2013.
