10 Fast & Furious Memes That Are Too Hilarious For Words - Screen Rant

Water is always wet, the sky is blue, and you can bet that there will always be a Fast and Furious movie on the way as sure as the sun will shine tomorrow. The Hollywood franchise has become synonymous with modern action movies and its films span nearly two decades of human history now. That makes it one of the longest-running film series in Hollywood.

Suffice to say, people probably want more of it, the countless billions of dollars it brings and the countless fans say so. Just as there exists an actual (and casual) fanbase for Fast and Furious memes, so too exist memes that poke fun at the films' conventions and usual tropes, many of which are recycled trademarks. So if you're not fed up with Fast and Furious just yet, here are 10 hilarious memes that words cannot contain.

10 DON'T GIVE ELON MUSK ANY IDEAS...

Gear shifting, no other action movie franchise has made such a mundane driving action more intense. In fact, you can frequently see the protagonists of any Fast and Furious movie twiddling with the shift stick like it's an arcade joystick, which leads us to believe that their cars are from the future, most likely prototypes of Elon Musk's supercars in the near future.

By default, most racing cars only have a healthy maximum of 8 forward gears. Any more than that and you're probably driving a rocket ship to Mars or got swindled by a car dealership into buying a car with bogus gearboxes because you're bald and like to wear tight shirts.

9 'STOP?' WHAT'S THAT WORD?

There are only so many different variations of movie names available, especially if you only have two words to work with, "fast" or "furious." Numbers do make things easier but then people will probably get intimidated at the fact that they made nearly 10 of these movies already. Thankfully, you don't have to watch the previous ones to get what's going on.

Heck, you don't even have to listen to the dialogue. All you have to do is to shut your brain off for a few minutes until the next action or racing scene kicks in. Now, by the looks of it, the Fast and Furious franchise is not about to slow down or stop anytime soon with the titularly ninth movie coming next year.

8 The Perils Of Going TOO Fast

It's no secret that being bald makes you look tougher, just take a look at Walter White from Breaking Bad...or Mr. Clean. Still, those guys have reasons for being bald, the men of the Fast and Furious franchise simply don't. Hence, let's just chalk it up to male pattern baldness associated with car speeds past 150 mph. The faster you go, the balder you get.

Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) is an exception, as he's the prettiest face in the original film so he can't go bald. However, having a head full of hair makes him (or anyone, really) stand out like a sore thumb, however.

7 EH, JUST SHAVE THE WHOLE THING OFF

By far the most dramatic and sincerely heartfelt scene in the Fast and Furious movies is Brian O'Conner parting ways with Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel). This served as a tribute and nod to Paul Walker, who had passed away during the filming for Furious 7. Needless to say, it was one of those few rare meaningful film sequences in the franchise, especially if you've been keeping track of the two since The Fast and the Furious (2001).

Needless to say, it's a sure way to get grown men crying, even those who are bald and like to look tough. It has also launched a thousand memes that are unrelated to the franchise but somehow best explain certain situations. That haircut looks painful, though.

6 OLD MAN DOM

Fun fact: Vin Diesel is now 52-years-old. A few more years and he might actually look like that picture above. Anyway, Fast & Furious 50 might be a joke but at this rate, it might eventually become a reality. They just have to keep cranking more Fast and Furious films every six months or so and we'll get there eventually.

Jokes, aside, this might actually be a great idea. It would have been a symbolic and awesome way to end the Fast and Furious franchise, with an old Dom Toretto who no longer has any friends and is alone in the world, haunted by the bald ghosts of his past and is on a forever search for the missing rims on his phased-out Dodge Charger. Plus, his mumble growls will also make more sense.

5 ONWARD TO THE MULTIVERSE!

Looks like space is the final frontier after all, though "final" might be an overstatement. After all, if you make more than 10 movies about fast cars and short tempers and even shorter hairstyles, you're bound to run out of roads on Earth where asphalt wheels are viable.

So, the franchise now turns its gaze to outer space. How will they handle it, you ask? By defying physics as always! Get ready to see a Subaru drifting on an international space station's solar panels or a rocket drag race to see who gets to the moon first with nitro and V8 engines only.

4 LESS FAST, MORE FURIOUS

You usually don't have to wonder why the Fast and Furious franchise is successful. A quick look at its posters and you'll be able to deduce it; a combination of cars, hot babes, muscle mass, and guns are a winning formula to rake in a dominantly male audience.

It's too bad the franchise drifted away from the street racing aspect of the first three films and gravitated more towards guns and over-the-top action sequences, along with the frequent dash of global terror conspiracies, secret agents, and incompetent military factions. It doesn't get crazier than that.

3 NITROUS NOT INCLUDED

Speaking of cars and racing, you'll find that automobiles are more disposable than underwear in the Fast and Furious films. Most cars will end up either totaled, crushed, or stolen. That's probably why they're not worth much in the films and why they're being given like pancakes to the current protagonist.

In fact, the only car which a protagonist had to work for was the first film's 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse, although this was back in the day when Fast and Furious was about racing. In reality, the racing car alone would have made the jobless protagonists broke.

2 LOOKS LIKE A JOB FOR MICHAEL BAY

Well, the filmmakers did mention the prospect of outer space for the franchise, so why not go ham and let sanity go entirely? We're talking about adding in aliens, time travel, and last but not least, dinosaurs who can outrun a grand tourer...because gas got a little too expensive in the near future and dinosaurs make for good drifters.

In any case, who could say no to Vin Diesel riding and racing with "Hero T-Rex." By the way, that "T" stands for testosterone, something Michael Bay will excessively lend to the production if he ever gets a hold of the Fast and Furious franchise.

1 NEARLY THERE...

Calm down and take a seat, they're not casting Matt Damon, nor Hugh Jackman, nor are they bringing back Paul Walker's ghost in Fast & Furious 9, that's merely a fan-made poster full of wishful thinking. With Fast & Furious 9 fast approaching in 2020, however, we just can't help but wonder what's in store for the 10th installment.

Since there was a Fast 5, it stands within reason that the 10th installment should be called Fast 10, just think of all the puns and dad jokes you could come up with such a movie title. We probably don't have to wait too long for that.
