Fast & Furious: 6 Reasons Why This Franchise Hasn't Died Yet

3. The Internet Loves Vin Diesel

I just found this out myself within the last year or two (don't judge me) and it keeps proving itself to be true in the most odd ways. I was Googling images of The Vision (you're judging me again) and I kept getting pictures of Vin Diesel. Perplexed, I finally read one of these posts and discovered that apparently ol' Vinnie made an off-the-cuff statement on a social network about wanting to play The Vision in an Avengers film - that's all it took for the intrawebz to explode in an ZOMGasm of speculation and rumour-spreading. I suppose that's not surprising given that he has more that 41 million "likes" on Facebook (he's very proud of that) and they all seem eager to show their fealty to The Diesel One. If he bats his lashes, flexes a bicep and smiles pretty whilst saying "be a pal & go see Fast 6", I'm sure they'll fill a few seats.
