Vegas? Yep, America’s Playground..

So loyal PCWEI readers, you may or may not know that Sean (our fearless leader) is in China for the next week or so channeling his inner Mao. So your’s truly has decided to actually post something for the first time in well…. who the hell knows how long!

I saw the teaser trailer for “Ocean’s 13” last night and I’ve got to say I’m intrigued. I absolutely LOVED Ocean’s 11 when it came out in 2001. It was well written, had a great cast and took place in one of my favorite places of all time….. That’s right VEGAS baby!!! Come to think of it I believe I saw Ocean’s 11 shortly before my first visit to Sin City. Anyhow then a few years later Ocean’s 12 came out. Same stellar cast, funny moments (The whole Julia Roberts being Julia Roberts thing comes to mind) and an interesting story, but there were some plot holes and it was quite as exciting as the first.

Now coming to a theater on June 8 we get the next installment of this powerhouse franchise. I’m not sure what the plot line is, and frankly it’s better that way. But I do know that the cast is back pretty much intact, with the exception of Julia Roberts I believe. However the addition of Ellen Barkin could prove interesting. However the biggest name to be added to the list is Michael Corleone himself…… That’s right Al “Hoo-Ah” Pacino is in the flick as well.

So will I go see this latest George Clooney/ Steven Soderbergh crime caper? You’re damn right I will! Will it live up to Ocean’s 11 (one of my top 10 favorite movies from the past 10 yrs or so?)? That remains to be seen. So here is the teaser trailer…. and I’ll see you at the theater on 6/8/2007

For nostalgia here ais the trailer for Ocean’s 11
