If the abundance of marketing campaigns promoting Furious 7 did not convince you to see it, the fact that both fans and critics met the film with almost universal acclaim sure did. There is more to this movie than the emotional say-goodbye-to-Paul Walker thing, but they went all coo-coo with the visual effects with this one.
If you think of the first Fast and Furious movie, things all started from the somewhat illegal, spectacular street racing. It then turned to cars dragging a bank vault through the streets, tank bulldozing through a highway full of vehicles and whatnot.
But dropping highly-customized supercars from a plane 10,000 feet in the air and getting them to land precisely? Jumping from one skyscraper from the other with one of the most powerful hypercars in existence? Are these things even possible? Then there’s Brian (Paul Walker) jumping from a bus off a cliff and almost missing Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) as she eventually saves him.
Sure, the list of crazy stunts that seem almost impossible to make could continue, but we’re sure you guys remember them from seeing the movie. The point is, you were not the only Furious 7 fans that asked themselves “how the heck is that possible?”. In fact, some people even believe some of the stunts would have turned a lot different were they to happen in real life.
Folks over at College Humor decided to remake some of these tricks using cartoon characters and a bunch of...well, humor. They described the 2-minute clip as 2 Fast 2 Graphically Real, yet we feel it’s rather proper to call it the Furious 7 roast.
P.S.: Feel free to complete that list of stunts you consider a bit too far fetched.
