Who wants to see some on set photos of Fast and Furious 7?

I saw this on Comingsoon.net and as I am a huge fan of the Fast and Furious 7 it got me very excited and I just had to put these pictures up on here:

        

All fans of the Fast and Furious film franchise can breathe a huge sigh of relief including me that the production of Fast 7 continued today...Huzzah! is all I can say. These pictures were taken from the Malibu set location where as you can see Universal Pictures has got the whole gang back together again with Tyrese Gibson ( who plays Roman 'Rome' Pierce), Dwayne Johnson ( who plays Agent Hobbs), Vin Diesel of course (who plays Torreto), Jason Statham there aren't any details as yet as to what character he will play in this film but as of the end of Fast and Furious 6 he is the bad guy brother of the last bad guy Shaw that phoned Torreto at the end of the last film after he'd killed Han in Tokyo, Jordana Brewster (who plays Mia), Michelle Rodriguez (who plays Letty) and Ludacris (who plays Tej) and has also roped in Caleb and Cody Walker to do some voice parts and other parts that with the help of some computer wizardry will have it looking and sounding as if Paul Walker was still in the movie, and it also looks like they have recruited some other actors and actors including Kurt Russel (who has been in films such as 'Big Trouble in Little Chinatown' and you may or may have seen 'Overboard' with Goldie Hawn), Djimon Hounsou (who you may or may not recognise from 'Gladiator' he played the Namibian slave who helped Russel Crowe's character when he had a deep cut on his arm he put some maggots in the cut so as to clean it), Lucas Black ( you may or may not recognise from 'The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift...yes he is back the guy with the terrible accent,-let's hope this will give him a second chance to improve his acting acting skills, I realise that that's sounds very harsh but Tokyo Drift was the worst film in this series and to paraphrase an interview Paul Walker gave to Collider.com two weeks ago before he died the script for that film was so bad that's the reason him and Vin Diesel didn't do that film and it was only made to go straight to DVD and because of the cameo of Vin Diesel in that film that the whole film franchise was booted back up again so I guess with this in mind there weren't a lot of things that could be done to salvage it and there were a lot of things going against it-, Nathalie Emmanuel (who you may or may not recognise from 'Game of Thrones' or 'Hollyoaks'), and John Brotherton.

Fast and Furious is pencilled in to be released on April 10th 2015 and is directed by James Wan.

Must Read for Batman Fans!: Gotham TV series trailer!

I just saw this on Empire Magazine website and as I'm a big fan of Batman I just had to put this on here, for your viewing pleasure please see below:

 
This is Fox's attempt at making an awesome, modern, action-packed origins TV series that can hopefully follow in the footsteps of Christopher Nolan's amazing modern update of the Bruce Wayne/Batman story,-which if you ask me is a very hard thing to do, as this for me looks already like this TV series will be a dumbed down action packed version using some of the characters from the original story such as a young Jim Gordon, a young Selena "Catwoman" Kyle who will be played in this TV series by Camren Bicondova and a young Alfred Pennyworth who will be played in this TV series by Sean Pertwee and some of the villains from the other Batman films such as a young Mr. Edward Nygma who will be played in this TV series by Cory Michael Smyth, Oswald Cobblepot a.k.a The Penguin who will be played in this TV series by Robin Taylor, Poison Ivy who will be played in this TV series by Claire  which does for me feels slightly disappointing as this makes me think that this TV series might be another X:Men:Wolverine Origins and we all know how that turned out to be (very crap!), but I suppose it has to be somewhat dumbed down for a TV series as you can't really have that same amount of action and explosions as I imagine there wasn't the same budget for all of the explosions,- which follows the stereotypical young inexperienced Jim Gordon played by Ben McKenzie (who you may or may not recognise from Southland and The OC) who has a bit of a past, note the:
 
"...haven't you ever killed anyone before..."  Gordon's response:
"...yes but that was when I was a soldier..."
 
partnered up to a much older experienced policeman who's going to show him the ropes, who is played by Donal Logue (who you may or may not recognise from Max Payne as Alex who was a policeman who was killed after looking in to the death of Max Payne's wife for a drug that made soldiers think they were seeing angels and demons) with the crime kingpin in this series not being Falcone but seeming to have been replaced by Jayda Pickett-Smith's crime boss Fish Moody who Empire Magazine says is rumoured to own a comedy club where The Joker will be introduced into the story of the series.
 
Danny Cannon will direct this new series, there's no air date for the pilot of Gotham or even a date for when the full series of Gotham will air either so I guess we will just have to wait and see if this new series will be a hit or not,-but I think it has definitely peaked my interest to see whether or not its any good or not but I think it's fair for me to say that even though I don't have Fox TV and that I am a big fan of Batman and if I did have Fox TV I think I would definitely watch this-.
