you would think, for paul walkers sake, they would just stop f**king making them?

For Paul Walker's sake?
What does that even mean. Walker obviously enjoyed doing these movies and would want them to continue.
This last movie has made a billion dollars, and is getting decent reviews from critics and fans. It makes complete sense for the studio to make another one.

Guys, Paul Walker was more than just an average actor - he was a big contributor to the less fortunate. He set up foundations for the victims of the Haiti disaster, and he often went to Africa to help out. He was a good dude.

they wont keep making these movies because Paul would have wanted them to continue but purely for the reason of making a buck from making the same movie over and over. which is, imo, the wrong reasons.

It is of my opinion the ending of fast 7 is as perfect an ending to the series as they will ever get. they will never match it. I also doubt, without Paul and without the 'Pauls last ride' selling point of F&F7 that the 8th instalment will do as well at the box office or in the ratings.

just my opinion that they should end it at 7.

They will keep making them because people want to see them. Which in turn brings in money.
It's the reason EVERY big movie studio makes movies. Just like any business.
There are people involved in the filmmaking process who are in it for the artistic integrity... But I doubt many of those people are involved in the F&F series.

The death of Paul Walker shouldn't have any effect on whether or not they make another one.
I hear some saying they should retire the series "out of respect" for Walker, which I think is garbage.

Also, the next movie doesn't have to be as successful as this one. If it makes half as much money it will still be a success.

Let's just put it this way... in 2 weeks, this movie has already brought in over $800,000,000 and it will break the billion dollar barrier. If Star Wars or Avengers beat this take in I will ban myself from this forum!

Well Avengers has hit 44.8 mil in 2 days and it hasn't even opened in all countries yet

Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron doesn't open stateside for another week, but it is already cleaning up overseas.

The latest film in the MCU finished its first weekend offshore with $201.2M, which is on the high end of box office expectations. Avengers: Age of Ultron did 44% better than Joss Whedon's first Avengers film and 24% better than Shane Black's Iron Man 3.

Avengers: Age of Ultron opened #1 in all 44 territories, which is just 55% of its international footprint. The top markets: South Korea with $28.2M, United Kingdom with $27.3M, Russia with $16.2M, Brazil with $13.1M, Australia with $13.1M and France with $12M.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, "IMAX saw the largest non-China international opening of all-time with $10.4M and a $60K per screen average."
