Did you see this just because Paul Walker died? Be honest...


I had my eye on this before the great man died as I'm sure most people did. But now it seems like everyone is seeing it just because Mr. Walker is no longer with us, so I want to know, did you see it just for that reason, if you did... did you regret it?

I've been a fan of his since The Skulls and Joy Ride so I would have seen this film regardless, but now every film released after his death has that extra push. Brandon Lee, Bruce Lee, Heath Ledger, Vincent Price, Robin Williams and now Paul Walker left this world giving us one last great performance.

Nope, it just happend to be on the telly.
I don't really care for Paul Walker, I haven't seen many of his movies either..
I'm sure his fanbase grew after his death, but I couldn't care less about a insignificant dead (American) moviestar.

That's part of it, but I also watched it because the director is a down to earth, nice guy. He's been active in places like Reddit and Imgur and actually talks to people on there regularly. Hollywood has too many directors that are "I'm up here, you're down there" attitudes, and he's not like that at all. Paul Walker is also another part of it. He did a lot of charity work and he was one of the good guys in Hollywood as well.
