"When I first did 'The Fast and the Furious', I didn't want there to be a sequel on the first one. I thought, 'Why would you rush to do a sequel - just because your first film is successful?'"
- Vin Diesel
About this Quote
Vin Diesel's quote speaks with the concept that sequels must not be hurried into production even if the first film was successful. He believes that sequels need to be carefully thought about and thought out, and not just created for the sake of making money. He was initially reluctant to do a follow up to The Fast and the Furious, as he felt that it was necessary to make the effort to ensure that the follow up was of the same quality as the very first film. He wished to make sure that the follow up was something that fans would take pleasure in and appreciate, and not simply a hurried cash grab. His quote speaks with the value of making the effort to develop something of quality, rather than rushing into something even if it might be profitable.
