Furious 7 might not be the Best Picture contender Vin Diesel wants it to be, but it should certainly win some more awards, if only so that we get a few more Vin Diesel acceptance speeches. On Wednesday, the people chose Furious 7 for both Favorite Movie and Favorite Action Movie at the People’s Choice Awards. And after taking the stage to receive the latter award, Diesel broke into an emotional tribute to his co-star Paul Walker, who died during the film’s production. “So I think of Dom and Brian,†Diesel said, naming his and Walker’s characters in the series, “And of course I think of Paul.†Then (in the video above) Diesel broke into a few bars of “See You Again,†which was written for the Furious 7 soundtrack, and which he has sung in honor of Walker before. We repeat: More awards for Furious 7 means more of Vin Diesel singing. Keep this in mind, Academy!
