The final moments of “Fast X” don’t merely recall “Infinity War”; in fact, they strongly resemble another superhero classic altogether. In “Fast X,” Dom and Little B are cornered by Dante around a dam in Portugal, and Dom manages to escape Dante’s trap of two remote-controlled tanker trucks wired to explode on top of the dam by revving his Charger and careening headfirst down the side of the dam while the trucks detonate above him.
Of course, this means that the car plunges into the rushing river below, and though Dom and Little B manage to get out of the car safely, it leaves them without any means of escape. Knowing this, Dante reveals that he’s wired the entire dam to explode, with Dom and Little B left helpless at the bottom of the structure.
Escaping or fixing a collapsing dam seems pretty impossible — unless, of course, you may have a way of turning back time to do so. That’s exactly what Kal-El, last son of Krypton, does during the finale of 1978’s “Superman,” using his super-speed to literally move the Earth back in time. Of course, he’s doing so in order to save the life of his beloved Lois (Margot Kidder), but in the process, he manages to fix most of the catastrophic damage that’s befallen the West Coast as a result of Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman) and his missile attack, including the collapsing Hoover dam that threatens the life of Jimmy Olsen (Marc McClure).
Could this dam incident in “Fast X” be another clue that time travel is happening in the next “Fast” film? It wouldn’t be at all out of bounds for the series if Dom, bereft at the loss of his friends and victory of his foe, gets his hands on a car that goes so fast it breaks the time barrier.
