Just don't expect the class we gleaned from star Jason Statham's winning Bank Job poster, nor the style attributed to even the worst trailers to ever appear in this space. This is essentially The Transporter splattered through the prism of Jackass, sweetly saturated with the lowbrow miracles of sex, violence, nudity, language and Corey Haim's mullet. Amy Smart's nipple tape, alas, did not make the cut. Say what you will (assuming you can get through all two-and-a-half minutes), but we can't believe Josh Brolin would throw these filmmakers off his next project.

An overly excited Corey Haim made a semi-triumphant return to mainstream filmmaking yesterday afternoon on the set of Crank 2. Haim told anybody who'd listen to him that it was the first time he's been on a real set since License To Drive, then proceed to fill his pockets and canvas bags with various items from the craft services table. After Haim was taken to his trailer, he asked the production assistant when will they come by to take orders for the drugs that they're going to need to get through the day.

Already knowing the plot (Jason Statham jams all over town to keep his artificial ticker above a lethal heart rate) and its general means of execution (public sex between Statham and Smart, for starters), we now have only the remaining mystery of how and exactly why Smart is bumming around the set with gaffer's tape on her nipples. After the jump, we think we may have discovered the root of her modesty.

After all, this just in from The Movie Blog:

Corey Haim will have a role in Crank 2. ... [Directors Mark] Neveldine and [Brian] Taylor always provide perverse and titillating sex sequences; I wonder if we will see Haim throw his hog around. They totally showed ALL of Alyssa Milano in Pathology, and I am wondering if I will get to see another childhood role model's genitals before I die.
That would be fantastic, indeed, though the outdoorsy nature of the Crank franchise's nudity doesn't have our hopes especially high. But even a concealed Haim is better than no Haim at all, so we'll take what we can get. And Amy Smart will keep her tape with her everywhere she goes. ]]> http://gawker.com/index.php?op=postcommentfeed&postId=385462&view=rss&microfeed=true
