Crank 2 Movie in PRE-PRODUCTION, what the…? |
According to IMDB the sequel of the popular movie Crank is in PRE-PRODUCTION and it will be finished and launched in 2009.
The sequel’s title is Crank 2: High Voltage , everything is fine with it, the only problem is that the main character Chev Chelios( Jason Statham) died in Crank, after jumping out of the helicopter(without a parachute ofcourse) and brutally landing on a car and smashing his head.
Overall it was a great movie, with lots of cool stuff and wasn’t filled with Cliché’s, but it had a bad ending for a sequel.
Because of this the plot of Crank 2: High Voltage sounds hilarious:
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.
Check out how Crank ended:
Chinese mobster or no chinese mobster how the heck can he steal a guy’s heart who died like in the video.
If you read the IMDB board about this movie, you will find lots and lots of critiques. Everyone’s saying that this movie has no purpose and it’s stupid that they made a sequel.
I hate to admit it but i agree with them. Well till i will see the movie and find out how they revived Chev

Hitman Movie review |
Today i had some spare time so i watched Hitman(the movie). In the beginning its specified that the movie was created based on the highly popular game Hitman created by eidos.
The movie begins with flash-backs in the past of Agent 47. Its presented the way kids trained at the agency and the way they were selected and treated. Each kid got a number, not a name, the movie’s main character being Agent 47.
Everything goes well till he has to complete the asasination of President Mikhail Belicoff(russian president). He will slowly find out that he’s been set up and that Belicoff has doubles and will do anything to get to power.
He meets a prostitute named Nika(the agency told him she is a witness and that she needs to be eliminated) who he will protect after finding out that the agency set him up.
He decides to take revenge and starts causing pain by killing those who Belicoff cares(his brother,affiliates) till he gets to him and eventually kills him.
In the movie Agent 47 is a highly trained assasin who can get out of any situation and he has a great observing capability. No situation goes unanalised, everything is planned:each action,each assasination,each spot. Nothing can take his mind off his mission, not even women.
I recommend you watch this movie, and you will really enjoy it especially if you played the game. Its filled with special effects and lots of battle tactics with lots and lots of action(although some situations are exagerated).
Check out the movie’s trailer:
Hitman Movie Overall Rating: 7/10

Sometimes warez is just essential |
Okay so back in 2002 on ProTV there was a TV series: The Invisible Man in which the main characters were Darien Fawkes and Bobby Hobbes who both worked at The Agency. The main skill of Fawkes was that he could turn invisible thanks to a synthetic gland that his brother put in his head and Bobby was always there with him in every mission.
I watched a few episodes and i really liked the effects and the way the actors acted, also the storyline was great, also it had a bit of humor and each episode ended with a cool quote.
Getting back to the main point of this post: What i wanted to do is buy the series from Amazon, well check out this for a surprise: They DONT HAVE a good version of it!
I found 2 products:
1) The Invisible Man: The Complete First Season (Widescreen) (2000)
Price: $44.99 & this item ships for FREE with Super Saver Shipping.
Everything is cool at this except that it will be available in march this year. Who the heck would want to wait that much to buy the first season and don’t watch the second season?
2) The Invisible Man 5-DVD Complete Series [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - Netherlands ]
2 used & new available from $54.99
Alright…now why the heck would i watch 45 episodes with annoying dutch subtitles embeded on it?(no offense to the dutch people, but i just aint dutch and i prefer subs in my own language or none)
Solution?
So what i did is download both seasons from ThePirateBay via BitTorrent, they are great DVD quality and no annoying subtitles and i only waited 2 days for the downloads to finish
I know you are saying: “but its warez…” , well yeah it is, but if you would really want to watch a tv series and it wouldn’t be available in stores but it would be available on the internet what would you do? Just put yourself in my shoes here.
Of course if i will see that both seasons are available in High Definition format i will surely buy it and watch it(the experience is not the same)

Surf’s Up movie |
It’s probably the best animation movie i’ve seen in my entire life. I rarely watch animation movies, some of them are really childish. Till i watched Surf’s up my favorite animation movie was Ratatouille but this movie’s just brilliant.
To be honest my favorite character was Chicken Joe(voice:Jon Heder), the way he behaves and the things he does spice up the movie and make it more fun than ever. The most funniest scene is when he is captured by the native penguins who want to cook him and he thinks they consider him as their leader and made him a hot bath.
The animation is brilliant, the water looks almost like its real along with the waves, characters,sand,jungle and all the effects.
The voices are also great and fit the characters, by this way making the movie fully enjoyable and fun along with lots of funny jokes.
Storyline:
The young hero, Cody Maverick(voice:Shia LaBeouf) in his childhood meets Big Z(voice:Jeff Bridges) who gives him a necklace. From that point Cody starts surfing.
In 10 years he gets the chance to participate in the annual Penguin World Surfing Championship. On Penguin island he will meet Geek and Lani(voice:Zooey Deschanel) along with Chicken Joe (who he meets on the transporting whale).
In a short matter of time he finds out that Geek is Big Z and he gets Big Z to train him for the competition. He builds a custom surf board and participates in the competition where his biggest rival is Tank(voice:Diedrich Bader) .
In the competition he stops Tank from turning over Chicken Joe, and he doesn’t win the competition but learns that its not just all about winning.
The movie ends with everyone heading to the north part of the beach and surf and have fun.

Species 4 – The awakening | Rewiew |
Today, as usual on sundays i don’t work much, so i decided that while eating breakfast il watch Species 4 – The awakening since i saw the previous episodes, why miss this one?
I was very dissapointed with it
It’s nothing compared to Species I and Species 2: Origins ,the video effects and the overall storyline highly suggests that it was a low-budget movie.
There are lots and lots of conversations that are useless and boring and you can notice they we’re just put there to lenghten the movie.
The beginning of the movie was pretty good but starting from the hospital scene everything got boring, predictable and unenjoyable. You could almost see what will happen next.
Storyline:
The main line of the movie is that a girl name Miranda is created from a mixture of human and alien DNA, Hollander raises her as his own daughter, but she gets out of control and after killing her boyfriend she kills lots of people at the hospital.
At this point Hollander will take her to mexico to McGuire(his collegue on the project) to help her. He finds out that Miranda is dying and the only way to save her is to get her a young female and transplant hormons from her to Miranda. They kidnap a prostitute who wanted to rob Hollander and do the transplant. After the transplant Miranda changes and starts killing people. In the end of the movie there is a fight between Miranda and Azura(she is a hybrid also), Myranda kills Azura and asks Hollander to end this. Hollander blows up McGuire’s laboratory and hideout and the movie ends.
The written above is the essence of the move, when watching it you will realize the same: its a BAD science fiction movie and NOT-Scary at all.
The only thing i don’t understand is How the heck did it get a 6.0/10 rating at IMDB? Some people are terrible at rating movies.
Conclusion: You can watch the movie in 20minutes by jumping from one part to other, don’t expect thrilling, and great action and stunt scenes.
