Antoine Fuqua is a name that comes to mind. He\’s great with characters and his action direction seems to be improving.

Whose to say vin diesel can\’t direct ff8? Watch the short he directed. It sucked and had no direction. All they did was talk about gas. He\’d ruin the series I hate when actors direct 9 times out of ten they suck and then they give up instead of trying to improve. Give vin diesel a kids movie or a horror movie or both then this series to direct.

I wouldn\’t object to Vin Diesel directing "Furious 8." He has been a part of the franchise since the beginning. Who\’s to say he can\’t direct the film?

How nice it must be to skate through life talent-free, and with one silly action flick make your millions. Yes, by all means, direct the next one. What could possibly go wrong? It\’s hard to mess up what amounts to a series of explosions and crashes and the occasional shag. None of the fans of this series would even notice.

Orson Welles…in other words he could direct this crap from his grave.

If you want stylized action that uses up big budget dollars and does away with the rules of physics as well as cookie-cutter characters then I\’ve got two words for you: Michael – Bay.

Ron Howard – he did "Rush" a true car racing film which was well-done.

I\’m going to go tell everyone that lunch is ready – Hey, Lunch is almost ready. Hey, remember that we have that meeting tonight with Elvis about the gas.

There is no upside to taking on the franchise at this point if you are already established. This is a gig for someone up-and-coming who is willing to risk that the series hasn\’t already peaked and needs to establish big budget bonafides.

Or M. Night Shyamalan, who really, really, really needs a hit. Any hit at all.
