Here is the trailer or teaser or whatever for Crank 2. The plot synopsis seemed pleasingly ridiculous when I first read it. The trailer looks makes it look as if Crank 2 will be the film which aims more desperately than any other to appeal to the lowest common denominator.
I think it's a fucking embarrassment personally. You might think it's great. Watch it and make up your own mind.

Five words:
Corey Haim with a mullet.

I have no idea. I might watch it to see Haim with a mullet.

You guys will probably hate me for this, but I loved the first one. I think the new trailer for the second one looks just great and violent as hell.
The way I see it, this is the closest thing to action that we have these days and I accept it because I know we won't get much different action than this stuff. It's true entertainment and a helluva lot better than watching some pg-13 action thriller like the Bourne movies.

Oh, I can totally see what you mean, and I would like to be into this stuff, but at the same time I can't believe they would stoop to the "old woman swearing" gag in the bloody trailer! I just think that makes them seem unbelievably desperate.

Yah, but they also did that in The Running Man and Total Recall! This is just a redband trailer, which the guys are just using to showcase the violence and language to the fans--something that will just please people. They needed to show the moneymaking humor and man-pleasing action.

Yah, but they also did that in The Running Man and Total Recall! True but the joke wasn't quite so hackneyed then (still not funny though), and did they actually show these scenes in the trailers? Not to my memory. Plus they are The Running Man and Total Recall and this is Crank 2! It's not bias or indoctrination its common sense! Seriously though, I hope it meets your expectations.

I don't care much for Jason Statham at all. I don't think he's anything great. If I ever do see this, it'll be because of Haim.

I loved the first one and this one looks like it could be even more amazing! I love all the classic 80's action stars too and sure this is a more comical kind of action and not so serious, but I think its damn entertaining and I can't wait for this movie!
