The trailer... by BrooseTheScharuk	Jun 1st, 2009 04:12:24 PM
...looked kind of silly.
ummm....the genius that is Crank 2? by lostfish	Jun 1st, 2009 04:13:15 PM
I might watch it for Michael C. Hall and if they go bugnuts crazy in it, but seriously....a kid controlling a prisoner? Jeezus.
PLus... by BrooseTheScharuk	Jun 1st, 2009 04:14:43 PM
...you just know that the tables will be turned on "bad guy" Michael Hall at the end...in fact, one shot from the trailer looks like someone is making him do the "Jets" dance from West Side Story.
Fourth !! by spyro	Jun 1st, 2009 04:19:31 PM
It won't make any sense but will be totally badass. Can't wait !
Statham was obviously busy. by Stuntcock Mike	Jun 1st, 2009 04:26:11 PM
This was fucking made for him.
Dexter Morgas? More like Dexter Morgan. by vivahst	Jun 1st, 2009 04:31:48 PM
This seems like it will kick ass.
huh? how is this a top story?? by Windowlicker74	Jun 1st, 2009 04:34:29 PM
just a still from a b-movie of which we've already seen the trailer? weird.
oh wait, sorry.. by Windowlicker74	Jun 1st, 2009 04:36:13 PM
not just a still, an 'exclusive new still' now i get it..
I WANT TO CONTROL THAT GIRL FROM TWILIGHT by RICHARD_GERE_RAPED_MY_GERBIL	Jun 1st, 2009 04:47:54 PM
GIVE ME GAMER POWERS PLEASE.
P.K. Dick by CENOBITE	Jun 1st, 2009 05:05:46 PM
...I can only wonder what he could have done if given the opportunity to create a modern videogame. It would probably start as a regular plain ol shooter then suddenly turn into something completely different. If only videogames not try to do movies and movies not try to do videogames.
I knew it. Quint is the only one around here with balls..... by DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD	Jun 1st, 2009 05:09:51 PM
....finally someone gives some fucking props to the ball busting insanity that is Crank 2.
Gerard Butler = Poor substitution for The Stath by DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD	Jun 1st, 2009 05:10:28 PM

Crank 2 = Modern Cult classic. by CENOBITE	Jun 1st, 2009 05:17:43 PM
So crazy insanely bad... that it's fucking incredible
He's behind you... by UltimaRex	Jun 1st, 2009 05:26:47 PM
And Crank 2 was glorious, not genius. Genius is a different kettle of fish...
Didn't they shoot this before Crank 2? by OGoncho	Jun 1st, 2009 05:39:44 PM
I don't think I imagined that. This has been in post-production for ages, hasn't it?
This sounds just like a movie by StrokerX	Jun 1st, 2009 05:45:40 PM
my buddy thought of...than we laughed cause we knew it was a horrible idea.
Crank 2 IS GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! by supermarch	Jun 1st, 2009 05:46:28 PM
AICN finally gets something right. My God that movie raised the bar for movies to watch when you're high.
screening by bthree78	Jun 1st, 2009 06:41:47 PM
Saw a screening of this back in the fall. Save your money and just re-watch The Running Man. It's awful and I even liked both Crank movies. Michael C. Hall's dance number is great. The action video game with Gerald is the worst stuff. However there is great live action game play in a Sims environment. Which is Crank classic.
this is lame, guys - be HONEST by BillyMayesHere	Jun 1st, 2009 06:54:28 PM
Crank was weak shit, as well. Don't lie.
"ball busting insanity that is crank 2???" by BillyMayesHere	Jun 1st, 2009 06:55:59 PM
Are you joking?
BillyMayesHere -- let me guess you're a James Cameron fan. by DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD	Jun 1st, 2009 06:59:50 PM

bthree78 -- so you're saying this needed The Stath. by DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD	Jun 1st, 2009 07:04:36 PM
FUCK. I knew it. Gerard is 70% closeted queer. He tries a bit too hard. FUCK. So this dance number? Where the fuck does that come from?
Danny by bthree78	Jun 1st, 2009 07:09:27 PM
I don't know if even The Stath could save this movie.
Dance number by bthree78	Jun 1st, 2009 07:11:03 PM
You would think it's a gag where a game user is controlling Michael C. Hall. Nope. When Gerard breaks into the villain lair, Michael and his goons just break into dance for the fuck of it. It's funny, because you're totally not expecting it.
So that's what he's doing in the trailer.. by WickedJester	Jun 1st, 2009 07:31:20 PM
I knew it looked like he was doing some type of snapping fingers dance routine.
The new Running Man! by Orionsangels	Jun 1st, 2009 07:32:14 PM

it. sounds. re-re-re-retarded. by OutlawsDelejos	Jun 1st, 2009 07:33:20 PM
And Michael C. Hall doing that awful southern accent nearly made me cry, really.
This flick only needs two things to be gold. by Stuntcock Mike	Jun 1st, 2009 07:43:12 PM
Statham and a car. Preferebly the car would explode if he failed to maintain an 87 minute erection. Maybe get Paul Walker or Nic Cage in the mix somewhere. Gamer is the kind of shit I'm liking lately though, just a quick fist up the caboose for an hour and a half.
DICKBLOOD - I'm a fan of... by BillyMayesHere	Jun 1st, 2009 07:43:32 PM
what Cameron can do on the page and on screen - Not him as a human being. Let's just say his "set etiquette" needs some finessing. Why do you ask?
Danny Glovers Dick Blood by Lenny8	Jun 1st, 2009 07:43:52 PM
Your fifteen minutes was up twenty minutes before Scriptgirl's. You are officially a dull twat.
BTW -The "Stath" seems only capable of "B-ACTION" by BillyMayesHere	Jun 1st, 2009 07:45:00 PM
... certainly as of late.
I will say this in Butler's defense though. by Stuntcock Mike	Jun 1st, 2009 07:46:14 PM
He was great in Rocknrolla. Perfect as the kinda dopey-heart-of-gold type.
Lenny8 -- Script Girl lives forever. She can suck cock. by DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD	Jun 1st, 2009 07:50:38 PM
I can't. :(
BillyMayesHere -- B Action is what lives forever. by DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD	Jun 1st, 2009 07:52:41 PM
Deny that all you want.....but most well reviewed so called 'Good Films' are forgotten quickly.
Lot of LIVE FOREVER going on..... by DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD	Jun 1st, 2009 07:53:20 PM
.....fucking Oasis. Wanks.
you are right about that B ACTION IS 4 EVER by BillyMayesHere	Jun 1st, 2009 07:53:47 PM
NO QUESTION.
Death Race by drewlicious	Jun 1st, 2009 08:07:37 PM
Just saw it. Actually surprised I liked it. It was well-made B-movie that I didnt' mind seeing on DVD. It might have been a different story if I saw it in theaters but I think certain films fare better on the lesser formats.
The Crank Guys Are As Good As Those Disaster Movie Guys by Tall_Boy66	Jun 1st, 2009 08:22:36 PM
Which is to say, if you like Crank, you like shit... wait, Quint likes Crank? Wow! I am SHOCKED! He and Merrick need to have a "who has more terrible taste in movies" contest. The resulting hole would tear apart space time.

Madness? THIS. IS. SEGA! by Stryder	Jun 1st, 2009 09:09:24 PM
Seriously, this is going to be stupid. You know it. I know it. You can only return to the creative well of "The Most Dangerous Game" so many times, and at this point, the bucket's just bringing up sand and scorpions. Wait a minute... Gerard Butler fighting giant scorpions... created from Medusa's blood... HOLD THE PHONE! I gotta go write a script!
This movie is the worst thing you will EVER see, I've watched it by Turd Furgeson	Jun 1st, 2009 09:09:52 PM
Trust me, saw a test screening a couple months back when it was called "Citizen Game" and they just changed the name to "Game" and now it's "Gamer".. Honestly, almost walked out of a FREE movie.. Gerard Butler and Michael C. Hall were the ONLY redeeming things about this ultimate shitfest.. If Harry thought T4 was bad, he'll think this is the equivelant of getting his balls surgically revoved while he watches...
The Running Man by bthree78	Jun 1st, 2009 09:53:50 PM
If everyone is upset over so many remakes, well here's another one. It even has the subplot of a hacker trying to stop the signal/broadcast. Also played by a "musician.." Instead of Mick Fleetwood, they got Ludacris.
CRAP, you'll forget about in 10 seconds. by BillyMayesHere	Jun 1st, 2009 10:13:59 PM
honestly.
mmmm.. Tron Puree by jackofhearts29	Jun 1st, 2009 11:09:55 PM
...tastes like gritty neon FAIL
AICN couldn't save Drag Me To Hell by JuanSanchez	Jun 2nd, 2009 12:35:58 AM

Who cares, when James Cameron talked up AVATAR at E32009 by onezeroone	Jun 2nd, 2009 12:42:09 AM
Google it up, it's all over the place but here.
AICN couldn't save Crank 2 by JuanSanchez	Jun 2nd, 2009 01:03:01 AM

Gamer will go straight to video. by JuanSanchez	Jun 2nd, 2009 01:03:29 AM

From the two morons that brought you CRANK. by Motoko Kusanagi	Jun 2nd, 2009 01:49:30 AM
No, thanks, no.
"Save Point"... by doober187	Jun 2nd, 2009 05:35:32 AM
...even though it uses real people. What happens when he dies and reloads the save point?
This is such a weird scenario. by Royston Lodge	Jun 2nd, 2009 09:42:45 AM
Gamer is so frikkin' derivative it's insane. And yet, for some reason, I cannot wait to see it. It's weird that the same creative process (steal everything that isn't nailed down) that I usually despise with the white hot passion of a thousand burning suns would create a flick that I cannot wait to see. I feel so dirty. Like Tara Reid on an average Thursday.
Fuck Gerard Butler! by Kenshiro_187	Jun 2nd, 2009 12:03:26 PM
Piece of trash tries to be an action star in 300 then does some lame ass shit like P.S. I love and now that movie with that Greys/Knocked up slut. Gerard you are stank! P.S. I Love, more like P.S. You Suck Cock! And what kind of exclusive image is this? Lame brain humanoids.
