Paul Walker Memorial Thread

[xAZxE30x]

Walker's got a movie coming out next week called Hours. It doesn't look spectacular but if you were a fan of his, make sure to get out and see it in his honour.

I saw it only because he was in it.. I wonder if his family gets the money of the sales? Does it work that way?

I literally feel saddened by his death. One of the few actors I actually respected. He was a car enthusiast and a awesome actor in my book. RIP

The emotions this man left behind are so evident that it pretty much took over any international and local news (at least here in Malta where it was a pretty eventful weekend).

It's so ironic how someone like Paul had to leave us. You've left your mark permanently and rest assured that many will remember you. Regardless of how the accident happened and whose fault it is, rest in peace Paul & Roger.

RIP Paul

I never knew who he was until the first F&F movie. Back then I had an 84 Rabbit 3 door with stick. I had a straight-flow blue bottle exhaust on it and a 1.8 engine, my mom could bear me revving out my little car blocks away from home.

My GF at the time was amazed that after seeing the movie in the theatre, on the drive home I was able to light up the front tires lol

I still remember how much negative attention his first movie caused around my small city. Cops were all over anyone in a clapped out Civic, or anything else which resembled a wannabe race car.

Parent's and police alike hated and blamed those movies for innocent deaths in street racing.

Kinda ironic that's what killed it's star in real life

Fuck man. That's intense.

The Mrs. and I watched the first FF today, it's not the same anymore.

Nor will I ever be able to chuckle the same when an R3V thread turns into a script from F&F...

I saw that and you know, I just think it's wrong they would post that article at a time like this. His family must be sitting around wondering why this happened and reading that definitely won't help. I hope they stay far away from social media and anything else for the next couple months.

I'm going to watch F6 tonight. Haven't seen it, now I wish I saw it before yesterday. I ain't gonna lie, I just might get choked up, I really don't think a celeb passing has meant this to me in likely ever. I think it was because he was not as much of a celeb and more of a guy. Someone you could know, granted, someone you'd have to keep your wife from staring at, but....

We all place our bets and take our own chances in life.

I would have got in that car if i was him, without a doubt.


RIP.

I'm starting to wonder about incident recording hardware. Are we going to hear about the black box, will we know exactly what happened? I'm positive EVERYTHING is logged in that car, right?

I think that's the reason it is hitting people like you and I, because everyone could tell he was a car guy first. He was just the same as you or I.

RIP.

This, as well. It's all a matter of risk and reward, we all know the risks of what we do, whether we acknowledge it or not.

Anyone else notice the "anticipated obituary" posted on en.necropedia.org?

I noticed it when Farbin posted this yesterday. They had an anticipated obituary dated 12/2/13.

They have since edited it to the actual 11/30/13 date. The accuracy of their "anticipated obituary" is creepy.

EDIT: Never mind, apparently they have the same date for all actors/actresses that they list. Just keep bumping it up.

[Farbin Kaiber]

Maybe they prepped it for the death hoax that went out on the 29th, then they actually had to use it, and they knew it takes at least 3 days for an obituary to be printed in the paper?
