The Italian Job Game

HOLY COW!!!!

I have played my Nintendo Gamecube maybe twice this year. This weekend while renting movies I noticed the Italian Job Game, so it sparked my interest. Geez, what a testament to Mini's everywhere.....I was hooked for 2 days...You get to drive a Mini like we would all love to do, like a lunatic....I've driven a euro as well as BMW's version and their is not much doubt in my mind the cars would take the abuse you can put on them on this game. I recommend everyone somehow getting their hands on this one....

nah, the original is in a league of it's own, the new film is bad , full of technical movie errors
RANT ON
scene where the bike comes out of the tunnel and rips the door of the white mini off.. guess what, 3 seconds later the door is back, and that's but on of the more obvious errors

the wrench does his magic, and looses 75 kg of weight, showing a pile of engine and exhaust parts?!?? 3 cars, an a silly pile of parts, only 75 kg weight reduction??? for 10000 USD??? what a joke

flying a chopper stationary in a hall??? if they tried it , the blades would suck a vacuum so fast that the chopper would try to drill itself throught the sealing in about 1 second!!!

handsome bob seducing a chick because she happens to be drving a cable van and they happen to need one and she happens to be a drop dead gorgeous little blonde???
as if they could't used a bogstandard white van and paint the cable company logo on it???


apparently nobody gives a sjit , and hollywood get's away with this sort of crap all the time...
they pay amazing money on stunts and effects, while in fact somebody should be payed to do a reality check while shooting a film

if anybody in Hollywood is reading , gimme a PM , compared to a CGI computer monkey , i'm probably relatively cheap
... ... ...
RANT OFF
