The Expendables

[billyjean]

Well, Stallone is back and has brought with him a very large action cast.

We've got Stallone, Willis, Schwarzenegger, Statham, Li, Rourke, Roberts, Austin, Lundgren ... whew.  I was wondering how long it would take to do a movie with a bunch of stars.  Apparently, for Hollywood, it takes decades.  Of course, Sly likes to do his own thing and has lots of friends that were willing to help him do it.  If you like action, this should be up your alley.  Ppl are wondering why they didn't wait for release as summer block buster, as it will come out in April.  Take a peek, but libs be forewarned.  I believe it contains some mild waterboarding.

a lil behind the scenes:

Sly looks to be in good shape.  He was a lil heavier for the last Rambo (Rambo 2008) which I thought was a pretty good action film (different from the others).  Who knows, maybe he gained to look the part.  But damn, he looks pretty good for an ole guy of 62 (just a pup).

After First Blood, I never really followed the Rambo movies.  Saw bits and pieces on TV here and there.  The only reason I saw First Blood is cause I happened to read the book years earlier.  About 9 years earlier, so I was interested to see it on screen.  But this last Rambo 2008, you had Stallone playing the much older, outta shape John Rambo, no longer interested in anything in life really.  Then some mercs providing protection to doctors going into Burma run into trouble.

They go through a lot to get weaponry right on all Sly's movies and the guy in this clip is the expert that Sly uses on his films.  This gives you an idea.  Kinda interesting.

Now THAT looks like an awesome flick!

It's like the Ocean's 12 of Action Flicks.  The producer of the film should get the Noble Peace Prize for being able to stroke so many egos and produce a worthwhile film.
