Oooooooookay. It looks like the first one, only more of everything. It could be good, or it could just be too much. The first one was fun, though.

It looks like a lot of fun, but why does the teaser look so shitty? Is it supposed to look that low quality?

I miss the days when action movies were slick, but not stylized overkill. It just takes me out of the movie.

Holy shit that looks fucking amazing!! Jenna Haze is in this too! Along with Amy Smart again, I am soooo in.

Was that Japanese guy the same one from Ichii the Killer?

I bet Statham probably had a blast making this movie.

My wife and me watched the first one this week. It was the third viewing for me.

When the movie was done I asked her "have you watched anything dumber than this?" She said no.

Of course she loved it.

I loathed the first but this looks dumb enough to work.

The film is still going through post-production.

The film was shot using Canon XH-A1 cameras, which are professional based HD cameras at a "consumer" price point (about $3k a pop).

The first flick was done the same way.

That is what I thought was the deal when I watched the frst one. Hopefully the Blu-Ray transfer will be as amazing as the first.

Looking forward to seeing this.

I don't remember Crank looking so lo-fi. Are you sure that it was done with the same cameras? If it was HD, I'd assume that it was a Viper or Genesis or something.

Anyways, I like 2's look and am curious to see how it all looks with the action sequences and everything. I'd rather not see a trend, and don't think that we will. But it seems like a neat experiment.

This movie looks fucking awesome, like the first one was just target practice.

Spoiler:
He shoves a shotgun up some guy's ass! Shotgun, up ass. Any questions?


And yes, is Doc Miles gonna have to choke a bitch? So glad Dwight Yoakam is back. The guy was hilarious in the first one and also anchored Panic Room above average with his truly despicable villain.

As for the trailer...ummm...why? That looks so dumb. Not only does he survive a xxxx ft fall, but then he has to keep going on a fake heart. Right...
