00:00Well, I have to say this, because I think this is very beautiful and poetic and magical.
00:07I know that you and the late Paul Walker, y'all kind of have this thing that's saying
00:10that y'all, you wanted it to last ten, you were like, how many can we get out of it,
00:16do you think, with this franchise?
00:17And the goal, I heard the goal was to get to ten, is that true?
00:23Paul and I started, let me take you back.
00:28We were in Mexico, before the first film that had ever opened.
00:35We were sitting at an airport, our duffel bags were at the side, we were sitting on the floor.
00:41We had just come from this place called MTV Spring Break thing that they had.
00:45I've done that before.
00:46You know what I mean?
00:47That's crazy.
00:48It was crazy.
00:49And he said to me,
00:53Vin, take all this in as people are walking over our feet and not looking at us.
01:02And he said, take in the fact that we have anonymity, because once this movie comes out,
01:15we will no longer have anonymity.
01:18Aw, the pride in that.
01:20That's amazing.
01:21You believed in it.
01:22He believed in it.
01:24And he would always say, whenever we would go to a premiere around the world,
01:34whenever I would exit the theater, it would only be him and I.
01:38No other directors, writers, producers, studio, cast.
01:42Nobody would just have to be him and I.
01:44And he'd always whisper in my ear and say, Vin, the best one's still in the can.
01:52And we were doing an interview in London, and they asked him, we had just done six, and
01:56they said, is there going to be another one?
01:57And he said, Vin, is there going to be any more?
02:01Is there going to be a seven and eight and a nine?
02:05And I said, the question isn't, is it seven, I'm going to confuse you, seven, eight, nine,
02:10it's, is it seven, eight, nine, ten?
02:14And when I said ten, he looked at me and said, if we ever got to ten, we would do something
02:19no one's ever done in cinematic history.
02:23And now ten is ten.
02:25So it's incredible that like, I know he was there in spirit and at heart, but he wasn't
02:33able to be there for this ten.
02:34But it's incredible to know that, you know, whatever you believe in, he's looking down
02:39going, damn, they did it.
02:40They made it to ten.
02:41That's incredible.
02:42It's an incredible franchise.
02:44It's so, it's so crazy and I'm so grateful.
02:48You know, this is a franchise that's never had an inherited fan, meaning there's never
02:54been a comic book, there's never been a TV show.
02:57Crowned up.
02:58Crowned up.
02:59And it's just from you all and the love that you all have that has
03:04continued on and who knew that in 2023 that we would need a saga like this to remind us
03:17how important family is and how important it is to love each other, you know?
03:23Yeah.
03:24Thank you, guys.
03:25Y'all have a great night.
03:26I'm going home.
