Louis vuitton sent their fall/winter 2012/2013 collection down the Milan Fashion Week runway today and it featured a much darker, more gothic and vampire-like color palette than what was shown by the iconic design house for fall 2011. One year ago <b><a href="http://www.louisvuittonhandbagsol.net">louis vuitton Handbags</a></b> showed bright colors and blocked them together, helping to explode the current color blocking trend. For fall 2012, Gucci moved away from the trend they started and let black rule the runway.

SO rediculous and SO over the top!! FUCKING AWESOME!

dear god guys... i'm in the movie business (student, but close enough)... i know what these cameras do, i know what different shot types are... but you are thinking way too deeply in this... who cares about that stuff... stick to the stunts that they are doing, the story line, the stuff that actually makes the movie

this movie looks ok but im not that pumped about it just looks ok

I didn't enjoy the first one but the sequel just looks like ass.

This Movie looks like the biggest piece of crap film making I have ever witnessed...sad...just sad....

I can honestly say that what I just watch was fucking stupid. I can hear people asking "what the fuck is wrong with you?" right now

FINALLY I CANT FUCKIN WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SHIT LOOKS CRAZY

Whatever... they just showed the whole movie... how long was the first one? less than 90 minutes. I hope they will keep this mindless crap even shorter. Waste of a trip to a movie theater. retarted.

I have mixed feelings about that trailer. While I enjoyed the first Crank, maybe not as much as most people but I thought it was good, this looks a little too similar. Sub out the 'synthetic Chinese shit' for a ridiculous looking artificial heart and 'keep your adrenaline pumping' to 'keep your artificial heart charged' and sub out Verona and Carlito for some other cookie-cutter bad dudes and you have Crank 2. Maybe it's too much to ask for, but I was kind of hoping these guys would evolved the ideas of the first movie a little bit for the sequel. Let's hope the action is at least better because honestly, for a movie about a guy that has to keep his adrenaline up, the first one didn't have the non-stop action I was hoping for. All that 'take a Redbull and put your hand in a waffle iron' bullshit was just a cop-out. If you're going to make a no holds barred action film with a stupid plot, at least deliver on the action part.

That trailor is Awesome! think they put the f words there for a reason, and it works well! (a theme). Corey haim looks hot in it! Can't wait to see the movie. Guess I need to rent part 1 first.

i thot dude fell from a helicopter at the end of the first movie,that'll turn anybody's body into mush,i how did his bones not break?,anyway its the kind of movie i'll watch only after my final exam,and i dont feel like thinking,or using my brain for anything.

This is MADNESS...

[dramatic pause]

...

...

This is CRANK 2!

First one was already over the top. They've truly blown every expectations possible. They're geniuses

Can you please fix your post to where the earliest "post" is at the beginning and the end, it so annoying to have to go to the last page to see the most recent....

I think I speak for most of us....

Thank you in advance.

Aaron

HOLY FFFFF

This looks xtreem

i luv jenna haze

What's with his alien heart??? Is this a SCIFI????

You people should reffain frum fighting aboutit. It will be the tits.

Fuck Ya! Can not wait!

it did, but i'm saying this is more of extreme 3k

This looks like a cheap direct to dvd home movie Troma shit. I was worried when u said they were shooting on low cost 3k cameras. I had no idea it would look this bad. Seriously, this looks even cheaper and worse than the first one did. Statham needs to stop appearing in these sorta crap, it will eventually tarnish his name.

No it didn't.

Gutpunch, the first Crank looked exactly like this, and it was in theaters

I'm guessing that the sound design and color timing haven't been done in time for the trailer to be released cause there is no way a commercial film studio would release a film that looked and sounded like that other than straight to DVD.

If the actual film keeps up half the pace this trailer has then I think we might be up for a fun ride.

no christian I am not confusing it at all.there may be degrees of how shaky it looks but it is shaky.

fuckin good....fuck twice

sweet, an f900 for $1000 - please post a link jonza, i have a little christmas money left over.

btw, the xh-a1's outdated mpeg-2 compression of the image to 25mbps a little far off from the f900's hdcam intraframe 184mbps, not to mention that 24f isn't true 24p, nor the diff between 1/3 inch and a 2/3 inch sensor in terms of dynamic range and DOF....

as for the f900 being out of date, fincher shot buttons on the viper, which is essentially an f900 optical block outputting log data to an hdcam sr deck.

I'm not saying the film is bad - I'd have to see it first - just that you don't know much about cameras....

oh shit, looks low budget and ridiculous. i'm in!!!

Well John, share your thoughts on the trailer...

XH-A1 is very high quality camera, at least on par with f900. Maybe f900 was expensive, but just because it was basicly the first truly usable professional hd-cam ever made. Today you can get f900 for a 1000$, its actually worth a lot less than a XH-A1...

"With shaky, you can’t tell who is doing what, what is going on or who is fighting who. It’s used to create the illusion of action and to hide the fact that they can’t do action properly."

This is a pretty extreme generalization. To assume that someone like Paul Greengrass shoots the way he shoots simply because he doesn't know how to handle action is a little naive. Christopher Nolan used a lot of 'shaky cam' in Batman Begins, but clearly demonstrated a great sense of action in The Dark Knight.

Although you may be right about some films, in most cases, the 'shaky cam' is used to create a more visceral experience for the audience.

"This has never really been done before (using consumer cameras to film a Hollywood narrative feature film)."

28 Days Later. I know you'll come up with a reason why that doesn't count, so I might as well mention some others that probably won't fall under your set of rules: Julien Donkey Boy, November, Timecode, Blair Witch Project (mixed with 16mm), Dancer in the Dark, Full Frontal...

Hardly the first film to do this. However, still an interesting choice. People should also realize that they'll more than likely be seeing a blown up 35mm print of this video footage and it will look much much different.

so I don't get it...why is he electrocuting himself? To keep his heart pumping? Or what.

@alfie

how true that line is "if these guys were not your friends i do not believe you would like their movies"

you said what i was thinking.

happy new year!

This movie looks like a fun ride.

"so you mean like in 95% of the transformers battle scenes then?"

What? I think you are confusing the idea of shaky cam with something else.

"With shaky, you can’t tell who is doing what, what is going on or who is fighting who. It’s used to create the illusion of action"

so you mean like in 95% of the transformers battle scenes then?

i am just baiting you campea.....i just think the film looks incredibly ugly.

if these guys were not your friends i do not believe you would like their movies,

FUCK! YEAH!

That is true John, this is a first, so we will see for sure

Hey Alfie,

Like I already explained... there is a differnce between hand held and Shaky. With shaky, you can't tell who is doing what, what is going on or who is fighting who. It's used to create the illusion of action and to hide the fact that they can't do action properly.

With hand held you can still see and understand everything that's going on.

And yes... it does look like it was shot on a handy cam. To me that's the main reason I'm excited about this movie and have been for a while. This has never really been done before (using consumer cameras to film a Hollywood narrative feature film).

We'll see if the action/humor can carry the film... or if it's really just about the camera you use.

I do not understand how you can sya the "hand held" look of crank is no worse then the "shaky" cam work of bourne. At least bourne doesn't look like It was shot on a handy cam

"that's still better than Delgo :)"

lol Chris good point!

and they really need another camera here, the opening sequence with the doctor looking at the heart looked incredibly cheap

@Frank

ya, i know about Wayne Brady. thats y it was so funny. it was funny then and its funny now.

I like Stratham but I hated Crank. Going by this trailer, this is bottom of the barrel filmmaking. This looks just vile as it's trying to appeal to the lowest of art forms! These guys( the directors) would just be better off making porn.I say that seriously, and Im not knocking porn by saying it. Stratham will not further his career by starring in this!

chuck

This will either be the worst sequel I've ever seen or the BEST worst sequel I've ever seen.

why didn't they just use the regular camera's you know? probably a very low budget to work with

I read somewhere that they used cheap hand-held cameras because they intended to wreck them.

Appears to be shot on the low budget by high school students. Statham's career may take a huge hit with this garbage.

This looks like its gonna be crap. It just looks like a testosterone movie for undereducated high school meatheads.

Looks like a mindless good time, as long as they keep the Hot Topic rock to a minimum.

That's still better than Delgo. :)

100 bucks says 3 million opening weekend

i am joking lol

it definately looks much worse than crank 1, which was shot on the top professional hd cam of the time, the f900 (a $100k cam), while this was shot on $3k and $5k cameras. As has been said, the way it's shot also makes it look like a home video...

it appears the filmmakers chose the cheap cameras to minimize the set up time and shot with 5+ cams at almost all times in the hope that this would maximize the energy of the action and performances... i guess they're betting that that will overcome the crappiness of the look. I'm curious how well it will do.
