When I'm seeing a movie...the whole world is even more silent than a grave yard @ night, nothing matters for the entire length of that movie.
I take in the picture the sound, the stunts, the lines and I wait for the credit to roll so I can note the artiste that wrote or made soundtracks I am interested in...then I must see the movie a second time just to pick the line and actions that inspire me (I have seen Notorious like 7times, @iamdiddy is an amazing inspiration..a great mentor)
so it begs the question "what exactly do we see in movies?" I particularly want to draw our attention to "THE #fastandfurious franchise"
Fast and furious basically showed how for 1 reason or the other certain individuals come into our lives, our way, our family not knowing what they are about to encounter and because of certain things and values, they are change. It was all speed, strategy, Networking and ideas in #2fast2furious.
I was not expecting #tokyodrift that totally blew my mind. I could not drive for days recalling my experience after I saw the first instalment of I almost turned my father's 504 GR over when I tried the 180 handbrake turn though it saved me on the lagos ibadan expressway a couple of years ago when a pedestrian suddenly crossed
I turned my then tinted CARINA E that I called "BLUE" so much I was "drifting" then by some miracle as I was almost hitting the kerb, I pulled the handbrake, thank God I always leave vehicles behind with considerable distance...cos by the time is stopped I was exactly 180degrees meaning I was facing the opposite direction, I will tell you want happend next sometime...pls remind me.
#fastand furious 4 had O Connor trying to get back in some way into the family he has come to love, he had to choose between family and work. Sometimes we are face with challenges in life...guess what, most times, your work let's you down but family never leaves you...Never!!!.
So the Big man shows up in #fastfive @dyannejohnson ("THE ROCK") all business and shii, it was too late for him to realise the power of team work, leadership and sheer talent. It wasn't all speed as usual...it was time for "precision driving" and guess who was able to pull that off..." A WOMAN" no matter what there are somethings a woman can do better and when we know this, it is better to just allow them...Han learnt the hard way.
#fastandfurious6 even THE ROCK could not resist the power of a talented team, the power of family and as much as he tried, he had to give in to them.
Then came the over 17million dollars in profit movie, #fast7, breath taking stunts, the beauty and riches of dubai, recruitment of a new family member, Ramsey...Meeen that babe is hotAF...I'm yet to see the movie again but I could not help but tweet some of the lines while watching, you can check out my handle @adeola_ajala #fast7 Mia had regained her memory, the team stronger than ever and even though Roman (@tyrese) had a private jet,
Nigga was so scared of jumping down a plane that he had to be forcefully parachuted off the plane...lol, his scream was epic and he could not keep his mouth shot when he appeared in the scene after the team were almost butchered. What stands out for me in the entire instalments is LOYALTY, LEADERSHIP and LOVE. We might come up with a great team, people with amazing talent, if the ingredients of loyalty, leadership and love are not infused in the people such that it runs in their blood, the team is bound to fail, so much for all that built low F1 type of cars in #furios6 where Hans babe dies, the villains team could not stand. The movies got me to realise that in a team there is a place for every one, Alpha male or not Toretto (@vindiesel) needed everyone...even Roman (@tyrese) @ludacris had the tech part going and the always found a job for @dyannejohnson
When the tribute part of #fast7 came on, I almost cried...I was so moved that I was also having flash back of memories and I realised that the memories you make with people who you love and are loyal to are very powerful (hi babe @1nuola) be careful of those you make memories with, that shii last for almost ever, @paulwalker should not have died but God knows best, sigh, but the tribute to him in #fast seven was amazing. I gave a standing ovation.
