Half of everything is luck...the other half is F8
I couldn't help but notice some 007 references in F8, whether they are intentional or not.
- Overall felt similar to Die Another Day with the classic car in Cuba and heavily armed car chase in Iceland. Main villain had mobile headquarters aboard cargo aircraft.
- Cars flying off parking garage like in TND.
- Car on two wheels as seen in DAF and Octopussy.
- Being chased by a heat seeking missile and tricking it into destroying enemy base as seen in Octopussy.
- Electro magnetic pulse used as a weapon like in Goldeneye. (and described in AVTAK)
- Villain utilizing a submarine for its nuclear capabilities like in TWINE.
Pretty fun movie! I'd rank it as my favorite in the series.
