A spinoff to a movie that is essentially just car porn/explosions? I don't think the spinoff franchise will go well as Rock hopes.

I'm iffy about how the Hobbs/Shaw film will turn out I think a lot of it will have to do with the marketing..but it will be a hell of a test to see if the franchise needs Vin Diesel. If it's a raging success than the Fast and Furious franchise is going way past 10 films.

Believe me, if it comes down to Rock not wanting to come back faster vs. Tyrese being written out of these movies, I know which way the producers will fall on it. I think homeboy is overestimating his brand value to this franchise, and how many model/actors are out there in the world right now. Hell, i'm pretty sure if they had to choose between Rock or Vin Diesel they would probably side with The Rock because they can spin the franchise off to something else so yea Tyrese isn't going to phase The Rock The big question is why would you even call this man out like that essentially saying you doing too much, what about us. You took shots at Baywatch to basically tell Rock listen stop doing these trash movies and focus here. Hell, Vin being written out is easy if they needed to. His character has looked like he wanted to be done with this crap already since about 5 films ago.

Wasn't the reason Vin Diesel came back to the franchise in the first place is so they would help him with the movies he wanted to do like another Riddick movie

I'm not saying he's not a diva, I'm not saying his character isn't hokey but....he certainly hasn't been done with this franchise, if anything he rejuvenated it. 2Fast2Furious didn't work. Tokyo Deift is a cult hit at best. It took Vin coming back and plotting out a lot of the future stories to revamp the whole thing. I still think it's a test to see how/if the franchise can continue without him. I know they plan for 10, but if Hobbs/Shaw is a success, I can see them doing more without Vin.

He only came back to Fast and Furious after all his other endeavors seemed like duds.

I mean...whatever this dude's malfunction is, I'm sure there are a lot of actors they can pay to say generic action guy lines while looking handsome sitting in whatever car won the "product placement bidding war" that's the actual focus of the shot. It doesn't matter whose behind the wheel, because that's not the point of these movies.

Since the fourth movie the franchise has been under Vin’s control, so the Hobbs/Shaw spin-off seems to me more like an attempt to cash in on Rock’s continuing popularity while also keeping him out of Vin’s way.

Yea essentially one of those have your cake and eat it to kind of deals since supposedly Rock and Vin don't get along

I just re-watched the first The Fast and The Furious and homeboys (Walker, Diesel) are legitimately trying to act. It all became hyperbole once Fast Five hit.

https://www.instagram.com/p/Ba9H8vCHvyV He's at it again. Bro should have had his coin in order. How can you blame The Rock for getting his money to take care of his family when you are the person who's in trouble

Is he in some Wesley Snipes trouble or something? Sounds like he's just pulling shit out of thin air. Because he has money troubles he's blaming The Rock for not putting a check in his pocket and using his daughter as a feel sorry for me act I'm sorry that he has to go through that but in no way shape or form is this The Rocks fault or he's being selfish. Tyrese has been in entertainment for years, if he can't find ways to make income or why he didn't make smart investments than that's on him. To put Rock on full blast like that for like the 3rd time is ridiculous

Fast and the Furious was created to be Point Break with cars. It evolved to be Mission Impossible with cars.
It's cool and admirable it's always been multi-cultural, but to try and equate that with civil rights and your own financial problems is just laughably silly.

Hell if I'm the Rock I would probably go full petty and have them kill off Roman off-screen now haha.

It's all types of crazy to even blame this on The Dwayne. Tyrese has had his own issues far too long. Hell, it's no surprise that the series picked up after Rock's involvement. And that at least meant more money for Tyrese. Imagine if the series never picked back over Paul's death and the Rock didn't join the cast.
