I often receive emails from various people asking me to look at various 24 related materials they’ve made, hoping i’ll post about them here, not to downplay the efforts made but if I posted about any and everything which gets sent my way, it’s all this site would be, and so i’ve got to save my breath until something truly worth posting about comes along, which is the case now.
“CTU: Provo” is a fanmade ‘parody-homage’ which runs to a full 90 minutes. Don’t be mislead by the word fanmade, the film has very impressive production qualities, enjoys an excellent cast, a solid script and direction which at times is more inventive than that shown on the show itself in recent times.
The film follows the team of a CTU field office, a Jack Bauer wannabe and his best-friend as they try to avert a eco-terrorist threat made against the most unlikely of targets, the small town of Provo, Utah. What ensues is at times, exciting, funny or just down right silly, but always highly entertaining. In short, if your in need of something to watch while you soldier on through the torturous wait until Series 7, then this is heaven sent and highly recommended.
Watch the trailer above and then head on over to the website to download the full length film, at the moment it’s only available as a direct download of 1GB, but i’m told torrent downloads will be up as soon as possible. I’ll probably be posting a full review in a week or so.
Someone just posted this in a comment on another post, and I thought everyone missing 24 would enjoy it. Contains spoilers for S7 - albeit ones revealed in the trailer.
The following takes place the day after twentieth century fox pulled the seventh season of “24″ due to the writers strike
It Rocked : 82%
Good, Doesn’t Mean The Show Will Be : 13%
Slightly Underwhelmed : 4%
Completely Awful, Won’t Bother Watching : 2%
… which is a shame, since we might not see S7 for a fair while yet. New poll asks you what you think about the Writer’s Guild strike which has forced the postponement of S7.
Fox have relaunched 24trailer.com, which is counting down to the first S7 Trailer in just under a weeks time. It also confirms that the new season will start with a two hour premiere on January 13th.
