Brazillian Job and Crank 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Brazilian Job and Crank 2. Some more Statham/ Handsome Rob goodness coming

Hope this means they will be Blu also. I wonder if they will shoot more movies including Crank 2 in the same way they shot 1? That was shot a special way for HD right?

spoiler:

Jason Statham's character in crank "Chev Chelios" died in the end, so unless the sequal takes place before the first movie I dont see him making an appearance.

Charlize Theron is freakin' hot. Her, in a movie called Brazilian Job is JUST MORE TEASING!

And yes, my girlfriend drools on Statham, too. That means we watch Italian Job quite often at home. heh heh

I am waiting for Snatch and Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrells.

Chev Chelios will be back in Crank 2. He will have a hi tech heart of some kind that constantly needs to be "shocked" to stay beating. So, he has to find ways to shock himself throughout the movie...

Exactly. he has a mechanical heart. "Chelios faces a Chinese mobster who has stolen his nearly indestructible heart and replaced it with a battery-powered ticker that requires regular jolts of electricity to keep working."

Here are his last/upcoming movies from IMDB:

1. The Brazilian Job (2009) (announced) .... Handsome Rob
2. Crank 2: High Voltage (2009) (pre-production) .... Chev Chelios
3. Death Race (2008) (post-production)
4. The Bank Job (2008) (completed) .... Terry

5. War (2007) .... Special Agent Jack Crawford
... aka Rogue Assassin (Australia) (Hong Kong: English title) (Philippines: English title) (Singapore: English title)
6. In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale (2007) .... Farmer
... aka Schwerter des Königs - Dungeon Siege (Germany)
7. Crank (2006) .... Chev Chelios

"Charlie Croker and his fellow crew of expert thieves head to Rio de Janeiro to pull off another heist in this follow up to The Italian Job (2003)."

Brazillian Job should be the sequel to Italian Job. As for Crank, that is by far one of the worst movies I have ever seen so Crank 2 is deffinately one for me to skip.

QwikSand · 01-16-2008, 10:14 PM

Crank was awful yes but the way it was filmed was amazing. I am hoping this movie is much better.

Thertel88 · 01-16-2008, 10:25 PM

Gamma_Winstead · 01-16-2008, 10:28 PM

Brazillian Job has been in the works for 3-4 years now, and they're no closer to getting it done, especially with the writer's strike. Even when they get a script they're happy with, they have to schedule what, 6 people together? Not easy

screw that, crank was awesome, it was all about over-the top laugh-out-loud action.

ezcobar411 · 01-16-2008, 11:06 PM

I liked Crank, happy to hear that they are making a sequal
