Why the hell is one guy smiling and laughing? Are those people there to show their respect to Paul and the other victiom or to take pictures of celebs? I can't understand when people act this way.  :(

i don't understand it either, i follow tony jaa on facebook and he's really a nice dude, he actually talks and answers to his fans because he needs to learn english, so on the daily i am seeing set photo's and pictures of him and his friends on the fast and furious set. and when paul walker died he posted some nice words. and the first thing people asked, What about the movie? Who should replace paul? Who gives a fuck, somebody died! have some fucking respect!

Definitely a big loss to the automotive enthusiast community.  I'm very much into cars (I've owned two Mitsubishi Evos, currently daily driving an Evo IX SE for about seven years) and have known people who have met him.  A girl who I knew in college 10+ years ago had an older brother who used to be Paul Walker's roommate, and she always talked about how nice he was, and even though girls would pretty much throw themselves at him, he was always very gentlemanly and not the type to just take a bunch of girls home and treat them like groupies or anything.  Also, my trusted mechanic who works on my car (and is a trusted guy within the Evo community in Southern California) had met Paul Walker a number of times as well, and I remember he couldn't stop complimenting him about how much he loved cars but shared it with other people.  I doubt that someone like Seinfeld would be as willing to engage in conversation with random people about cars.

I've always been into cars since I can remember, and while a lot of my closer friends during the adolescent years were more into older American cars, I was curious about the import tuner scene, which was coming up.  The Fast and the Furious was announced during my senior year of high school (though the movie itself came out the summer between high school and college for me), and I remember how it just boosted my interest in cars even more, since there was finally a car movie that had cars that I could better relate to, as the closest thing at that time was the one/two minute scene at the beginning of Gone in 60 Seconds where they raced the stolen Porsche 911 against a souped-up Civic with some old bearded white guy in it.

The Fast & Furious franchise won't be the same... I'm sure it will be difficult to finish the movie (as they will certainly require some re-writes) not just in terms of logistics, but it will be hard for the cast and crew to move forward, knowing that Paul Walker isn't there anymore, especially if they change the story to involve Paul Walker's character dying somehow and they have to act in front of the camera regarding something that actually happened.  I'm sure they'll get a bit emotional on the set, especially considering they turned the movie into such a franchise that really got better and better when people didn't think it was possible.  More and more of the auto community got into it as the movies progressed, and they won the respect of other people who may have written off the earlier movies in the beginning.  And these are people who have basically become a family over the past 10-15 years, having appeared in the movies together.  You could see Tyrese just having a tough time with it, since their characters in the movie were childhood homies, and the two of them actually grew quite fond of one another, and you could even see it in the behind-the-scenes footage from 2 Fast 2 Furious.  Vin Diesel was probably a lot like a brother to him.  Jordana Brewster basically played his girlfriend the whole time.  It must be tough for them, but more importantly Paul Walker's family and his teenaged daughter.

i'm not gonna lie i wasn't a big fan of his (although i did love the F&F movies HE was in), but i can't help but feel for him and his family i lost many people in my life due to car accidents, and it never stops hurting. such a horrific way to go out. R.I.P.
