There is a huge difference that you are missing out on. People raved about dark knight a) because it was a highly rated movie, and b) because heath gave a breathtaking final performance that ultimately lead to his drug abuse and death. You kind of contradict yourself because the chamber of secrets, hunger games and night at the museum did not have as big a reaction as f&f7 (tbh I don't think people made a point of seeing them for that reason at all). Whereas (other than die hard fans) no one cared that there was a new f&f movie until Paul walker died and all of a sudden EVERYONE had to make a point of seeing it and (what do you know) buying the song about his death. Now I'm not saying this should take away from the movies success or the tragedy of the actors passing but there's no question that this movie in particular has been boosted by the event.
