Universal has just unveiled a brand new trailer for The Fate of the Furious, and if you’re a fan of this franchise, I have great news: this is just as gloriously ridiculous as you’re hoping it’ll be.
Pack it up, movies of 2017: none of you can possibly top the moment when Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson alters the path of a live torpedo with one hand while hanging out of a moving car and sliding across the ice on his boots at top speed:
These movies have lost all sense of reality, and I absolutely love them for that. I was under the impression that following the jaw-dropping lunacy of Furious 7, this franchise was going to tone it down a little bit because honestly, how would they be able to do anything that tops a supercar crashing through a tower in Dubai? But from the looks of this trailer - which also includes Charlize Theron’s villain demonstrating a mastery of technology the likes of which we’ve never seen as she controls a swarm of hundreds of NYC cars at once - it looks like they’re keeping the pedal to the metal in this new entry… and that’s perfectly fine with me.
