Well... wasn't expecting that. I wonder what happens now?
Sad news to hear. I didn't know the guy personally, but still.
Also, I've only seen one of these silly car movies he'd done, and I hated it.
R.I.P. brother. Died in a "fiery car crash". How ironic.
R.I.P.
I only own five movies starring or co-starring Paul Walker: Pleasantville, Running Scared, Joy Ride, The Fast and the Furious, She's All That.
He seemed like a fun and down to earth kind of guy. Such a shame he had to die so young.
I think I've only seen one of the "Fast & Furious" flicks but still...bummer.
Honestly, I wasn't a fan but, s**t. He was at the point in his life and career where he could have turned into a perfectly serviceable one of "those guys".

I agree. He should have had all of Ryan Reynolds' movie roles and shown him how it's done.
I've seen only 4, and I respected him as a car enthusiast. RIP
Very sad: RIP Paul. :bluesad:
He made a movie in South Africa called Vehicle 19 which promised good things for him other than just being an action hero.
Is it bad that I'd never actually heard of Paul Walker until his death? I'd only seen the climax of Fast & Furious 5 during a plane flight, so I wouldn't have known about him that much. Regardless, hope the guy rests easy.

You sure it's that movie? I saw a trailer for it and all it was was action. Maybe you are thinking about "Hours" where he tries to save his infant child in the Hurricane Katrina.
I just watched The Fast and the Furious 6 (2013) for the first time tonight. Needless to say, what a dumb movie. Paul Walker's death is even more tragic now after seeing this, in knowing that The Fast and the Furious 7 (2014) will be more of the same. This is tragic along the lines of Street Fighter (1994) being Raul Julia's swan song. :bluesad:
I would say that the F&F movies was influential in video games, like NFS Underground to Midnight Club 3. Yes they were dumb, but they were dumb fun.
