I must be one of the last people on this planet who has not watched Christopher Nolan's very grandiose, breathtaking, and complex, Interstellar!

It's BBBAAACCCKKKKK! The Fast & the Furious films are by far one of my favorite franchise/series, hands down! How can you deny it's unrealistic action sequences and heart-felt message about friendship and family?! This is a film 14 years in the making and I am incredibly sad that it will end. But at least, it's for sure that they will go off in a HUGE BANG! The whole gang is back (R.I.P. Han) and this time,...
