10 Movie Sequels That Avoided Obvious Mistakes

10. CGI Paul Walker - Every Fast Film After Furious 7

The fact that Furious 7 turned out as well as it did is nothing short of a miracle, considering the unfortunate passing of Paul Walker mid-production, forcing his role in the film to be completed with digital doubles and his brothers, Cody and Caleb, acting as stand-ins.

The end result is impressively seamless for the most part, and more importantly gave Walker's character, Brian O'Conner, a fitting and affecting retirement.

Ever since Furious 7 did such an outstanding job keeping Brian in the movie, though, fans have suggested it's just a matter of time before CGI Brian reappears in a future film.

Yet the three mainline Fast movies since, for all of their faults, have shown surprising restraint in keeping Brian completely off-screen.

There are some undeniably awkward moments where the films have had to clunkily write around Brian's absence - especially with his partner Mia (Jordana Brewster) still being in the mix - but it's certainly preferable to ghoulishly inserting Brian into the films.

While it's certainly possible, even likely, that Vin Diesel and co. won't be able to resist bringing CGI Brian back for the series' final dinner scene, it's at least a relief that the last three movies have respectfully avoided exploiting Walker's image in a way which many fans would surely find tacky.
