My thoughts about the new Fast and Furious Trailer

Reactions To 'The Fate Of The Furious' Trailer
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson

I love the Fast and Furious Series and it is one of my absolute favorites. I have loved each movie more with each new release even "Furious 7," the one that broke my heart. The one that I cried when it ended for obvious reasons (Brian O'Connor driving off into the sunset, knowing that Paul Walker would never grace the silver screen again.)

Yesterday, "The Fate of the Furious" (Furious 8) trailer was finally released after over a year's worth of waiting. I've been excitedly awaiting the release of the new trailer and after watching it I have some seriously mixed emotions about it.

"The Fate of the Furious" is a whole new game compared to the previous 7 films. In the movie, Dom turns on the one thing that means more to him than anything else. Family. Hobbs, the one usually doing the hunting, is thrown in prison and plot twist (not really) Dom is once again being hunted by Hobbs. To me, even the idea of Dom turning on his family infuriates me and makes me not want to see the movie. I will definitely see the movie even though in the back of my mind I'll be mad about them choosing this plotline. I cannot ever imagine Dom turning on his family and I am honestly shocked that this was the plotline selected.

I both love and hate the new trailer but, I can only hope that Dom returns to his family for good. I don't expect Furious 8 to do as well as the others mainly because of this huge plot twist and because Paul Walker is gone. But I might be surprised about how well it turns out. Who knows. I can understand why the producers had to make such a drastic change because of the loss of Paul and also a main character, so that the franchise could continue to succeed and do well, but I do wish it hadn't been this drastic.I wish that in some way (and they might've done it) F8 will show how the family is adjusting to working without Brian and Mia, and maybe even a brief scene or two featuring Mia begging Dom not to turn on the family. With the release of this trailer I defintely am questioning the entire movie and if its worth seeing, but the only way to get my questions answered is to go to the Midnight Premeire in April 2017. Until my questions are answered I'll just fill the agonizing wait with the 7 other films.

I'll just leave this here. The franchise won't be the same without Paul Walker, but I can't wait to see what Vin Diesel has come up with as an actor and a producer.

Movies 9 and 10 have been tentatively scheduled to release in 2019 and 2021, respectively.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
