Deliberate mistake: The coordinates listed for Hobbs' soccer game (34.1381N, 118.3534W) at the beginning are not actually a wooded suburban area with a recreational field, but are in fact the longitude and latitude for the Universal Studios Hollywood theme park in Los Angeles. (00:15:20)
Fast & Furious 8 (2017)
1 deliberate mistake - chronological order
Directed by: F. Gary Gray
Starring: Dwayne Johnson, Charlize Theron, Jason Statham, Vin Diesel, Tyrese Gibson
Revealing mistake: On the ice the tank is firing - in slow motion we see empty shells are littering the area. The shells have crimped ends, revealing them to be blanks.
Trivia: When Hobbs gets sent to prison, Shaw calls him Hercules. Dwayne Johnson played Hercules in a previous movie.
More questions & answers from Fast & Furious 8
Answer: Well, we know that Owen Shaw was once an SAS soldier. Deckard Shaw has a file in this movie that reveals he saved a team he was part of and saved some hostages in the past. When Deckard Shaw refused to do the job Cypher wanted him to do in Furious 6 to steal the nightshade device, Cypher then went after Owen Shaw and convinced him to do the job. Cypher is the true mastermind behind everything that has happened in Furious 6, 7 and 8. So, maybe the Shaw brothers were good guys at a time before Cypher came along.
