Film Quiz Friday: Who Fast Who Furious?

“I don’t have friends, I got family”  – with Fast & Furious 9 now in cinemas, this week’s film quiz covers movies featuring the Fast family of actors.

This week marks not only the belated release of the ninth instalment of Vin Diesel’s family-centric franchise, but the 20th anniversary of The Fast & The Furious – it’s been a long way from stealing DVD-VCR combos to saving the world, but somehow, we got here. Anyway, we’ve got 30 new film questions for you this week, including a round on The Fast Saga’s many regulars.

Once you’ve completed all three rounds, you’ll find a link to a separate post with the correct answers at the bottom of this post. As always, this is just for fun, but please let us know how you did in the comments (scores out of 30 this week!) and give us any other lovely feedback. And to paraphrase the wisdom of Dominic Toretto, it doesn’t matter if you win by an inch or a mile… quizzing is quizzing!
