Careful… the ‘Repo Men’ are coming after your organs in their VW
Coming March 19th, Repo Men (which is not a remake of Repo Man, the awesome 80′s campy movie with Emilio Estevez, by the way) gives a creepy insight on what might be around the corner for us, and we’re not talking about the Health Care reform. No, in this future, a company called The Union makes replacement organs for humans, which is a scientific breakthrough a lot of people would welcome today. The downside of this is that if you don’t pay your bill, they... Read More
Red Mist gets a hum… kick-ass Mustang in ‘KICK-ASS’
Remember Mc Lovin’ from Superbad and the nerdy kid from Role Models? Well that’s Christopher Mintz-Plasse in real life, and he’s in the upcoming superhero comedy Kick-Ass with Nicolas Cage and Aaron Johnson. In this adaptation of the eponymous comic-book series, they play a team of real-life superheroes with no otherworldly powers, but with a good heart and a lot of guts. Christoper Mintz-Plasse gets a tricked-out previous generation (2009?) Ford Mustang with... Read More

‘The Wraith’ trailer
Okay so we’ve been trying to get our hands on a copy of The Wraith for a while, and so far, no dice. It’s been on our Netflix queue forever, saved, but unavailable, and we don’t know if that would be worth it to purchase it on eBay. It looks promising as a “so-bad-it’s-good” movie and as a Dodge M4S prototype as main character though… M4S = Mid engine, 4 cylinder, Sport.The original car was built by Dodge and PPG industries to be used...

Fast & Furious 4
OMG, is Vin gonna make it? intolerable suspense... During the SuperBowl we had the opportunity to see the trailer for the next instalement of the Fast and Furious franchise. Looks good, partly because the main actors of the first episode are back (Vin Diesel and Paul Walker), there seems to be more muscle cars and less imports, and it looks like the plot is more than 2 pages long. Without further adu, we got the trailer right below. Enjoy! Watch the trailer after the jump! Read... Read More
On our watch list: Get Smart (2008)
We haven’t paid much attention to the upcoming spy/comedy film yet, but there’s actually some car action in it, and even some product placement deals. Vespa is sponsoring it, and a Triumph is seen in the trailer jumping from the stairs of a building. Looks a fun movie with plenty of laughs and thrills, just like we like’em. Steve Carell, Anne Hathaway and “The Rock” seem to be doing perfectly well in this modern day version of the 1960′s... Read More
Cool vehicles in Indiana Jones 4 “Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”!
digg_url = 'http://carsplusmovies.com/2008/05/21/vehicles-indiana-jones-4-kingdom-of-the-crystal-skull';If you notice a lot of motorcycle action in the trailer below, that’s normal: Harley Davidson scored a big product placement deal with the production and we will talk more about the deal in another post. But as often with Indy, some great vehicles will be used by the different protagonists, including the Ford GPA (or is it its russian version, the GAZ 69?), the weird-looking... Read More

We also finally get to see Trixie (Christina Ricci) and her helicopter. Read More
