- The relatively new 2019 category asks whether it could be remade as a ten-episode Netflix show; Netflix is already doing an animated spy-cars series, but the pitch is the 2001 version stretched over ten episodes: deep in LA's street-racing scene with a gang element like Training Day, seedy and a little dangerous, with Race Wars looming and Johnny Tran involved.
- It really could have worked as a show, with ten or twelve episodes in it; The Purge did not work as a show despite expectations, but no current show has dived into that side of LA satisfyingly.
- Earlier, Dom's two years in prison prompt a prequel pitch, Dom in prison running foot races or scooters in the yard, abandoned almost immediately.
