That's funny! I love MINI advertising. They should have taken that silly graphic off the side of the MINI though. And it's wierd they took off the chrome gas cap as well...

That was so funny! "That hurt my feelings" and I kinda like the graphics on the side, I think it gives the car more character (movie-wise)

R56 in Action

Although there is reason to believe some of the stunt work was actually a R53. I searched and couldnt find this posted already. enjoy:

Hey, my MA called me this afternoon -- I was shocked - I thought my car was in. He called to see if I wanted invites to a MINI event in NYC for a premiere showing of Hammer and Coop.
I guess they are commercials in a movie preview style to run in theaters prior to movies, but I guess I'll find out. He said they'll be showing Ghost Rider after. MINI's and a burning skeleton on a bike -- hmmm who could ask for anything more?
There's going to be MINI givaways and the tickets are exclusive to new MINI owners -- I wonder if they'll have parking since it's in the middle of Manhattan and I should have my new MINI by then.

Very funny and cool.

Congrats to the 'early adopters'. You take the risks so you should have the kudos too.

MA said that he thought some of the actors were going to be there. Should be fun -- hope the blonde is there. A fine thespian, if I ever saw one.

Check out this month's issue of "Stuff". It has a six page ad for the "movie". First time I have seen the center speedo, 'up close and personal'.

Same add is in "Maxim" Quite a departure from the old add themes.

The car wash scene was pretty good. I think COOP got spanked by one of the girls.

In episode 2, if you watch carefully, you can see it switch to being the mocked-up R53 they used for stunts just before it crashes through the mirror. They blacked out the lower grille, but the fog lights disappear and are replaced by the turn signal lights, making them look like they suddenly change position, but they did think to do the orange in the headlights.

I'm pretty sure his name is Bryan Callen.



http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0130437/

He's been a cast member on Mad TV for a few seasons and has had roles in several television shows ... plus a few smaller movies here and there. Very funny guy.

I recognize the bad guy in the 4x4, too... but it hasn't come to me yet where I've specifically seen him...

Bad Guy in 4X4

I believe this is the same guy who played the American fighter in "Blood Sport", who got beat up pretty bad...a Van Damm kung fu movie. They added the facial hair.....

It is.

That's linked from his official site, and the myspace site has a link to H&C.
