Premier seat, not premiere.
They did have a premiere (first) showing at 0001 Friday morning though, that Lisa and I considered going to see...
Enjoyed it.
Genuine spoiler alert.
[spoiler]It was wierd constantly watching thinking 'is this where they kill him off'?
But then in the end, they didn't and he was in it all the way through, which was really pleasing actually. So they did a good job of re-hashing the clips they had and story they had of him, body doubles (his brother wasn't it?) only used a couple of times and only one bit that stood out as him pasted in to a group shot briefly (besides the ending scene of him in the Supra of course).
I think the way they've written him out was quite sensitively and well done. I choked a bit, anyway and then driving off into the sunset was the way it had to be...
Anyway, aside from that, couple of ingenious stunts that were really well executed - the 3 tower jump and the coach off the cliff rescue particularly
Also they had the cars for Stathham pretty much bang on, except for the Maserati. And of course, he was too double hard to die
Also strangely, The Rock didn't body lemonade me off in this one at all, he did a good job. Loved the subtle hulk joke with him and VD
Also it was great to see Kurt Russel on screen again
that was a mega surprise to me when his name came up on the oppening credits

Saw this last night. Loved it!
Genuine spoiler...
[spoiler]I wasn't sure whether I was watching F&F or Expendibles 4, but I loved it!
I was exactly the same, waiting to see Brian killed off throughout. I thought the bus scene was going to be it, and then after he told Mia he loved her over the phone. But like you Iain, I was very glad to see he made it all the way through and I could have cried at the end
If you didn't know he was no longer with us, you'd never have known he wasn't in all his scenes.
Kurt Russell was a surprise, but also so was Tony Jaa!
He's finally made it to Hollywood! He's possibly my favourite acting martial artist. His fighting style is amazing! You don't see him anywhere near his full potential in this, but hopefully this means we'll be seeing more of him 
Most comical part from the movie... "The street always wins... *STOMP*"
