While the Fast film series, which pioneered the trend, is still going strong today, later installments have focused more on straightforward action and car chases as opposed to the earlier, more extreme sports-centered installments.

* ActorLeavesCharacterDies: Augustus Gibbons calmly acknowledges the news of Xander Cage's death and then nobody mentions him for the rest of the film. This has been retconned now that Creator/VinDiesel reprised his role in ''Film/XXXReturnOfXanderCage''. An alternate opening (included with the DVD as a short film) shows Xander (who is played by a stunt double) being blown up by the film's villain, with a bloody piece of skin showing his trademark "XXX" tattoo as the only thing left. The villain proceeds to insult the departed Mr. Cage and comment on how much of a moron he was, making it seem like a bit of a TakeThat.
