Well where to start, maybe with how upset I was to hear this news or maybe how crazy shocking it was to me. I don't know this is all kinda surreal to me considering how young he was and how awesome he was as Brian O'Conner. Let's be honest about Paul Walker and say that most of his movies weren't the greatest but the Fast and the Furious franchise really left a lasting mark on all of us. Whether you hated those movies or loved them like I did they did leave an effect on all of us in some way. Back in 2001 when I first saw The Fast and the Furious I was blown away by how awesome it was and it has gotten better ever since. (minus Tokyo Drift which is awful) Me and my dad used to watch the first one all the time and it became a bonding thing in my household and then me and my friends would always go see the new Fast and Furious movie when they came out. I couldn't get enough of these movies and still can not get enough til this day. I have all of them on steelbook and have been counting down the days til I can get my Target Fast and Furious Six steelbook. For me these movies are the Lethal Weapon's of my generation and I love all the action that comes along with them. Knowing now that Paul Walker will not be apart of this really kills me because of what high regard I hold these movies and how much a big part he is in them.
I know this is someones life and it may seem stupid to be sad that he wont be in more movies I love but isn't that that point why were sad in the first place? We are sad because we lost an actor that performed in movies that we loved and whether you loved Eight Below or Running Scared or Varsity Blues or The Fast and Furious movies you also feel how I feel. Paul Walkers legacy will live on because all of us will make it live on through conversations and stories of movies he was in. Its never easy to lose a great actor like Paul Walker but like Heath Ledger we will all make sure he lives on throughout his films. I for one will miss his acting and miss seeing his tweets on twitter about his love for cars and his love for his fast and furious family. Its upsetting but I know heaven gained an angel yesterday and he will be living his life up there a quarter mile at a time...... Rest in Peace Paul Walker, you were taken too soon and too young but I know you're in a better place now.
