Even worse, Shia Lebeouf and Orlando Bloom passing for 'action stars'. At least Bloom has kind of disappeared.

Ego's should of been put aside, and done this kind of move in the mid to late 90's. I will still watch however.

The trailer makes the movie look awful, but of course I will watch even if it's a stinkfest. The star power is awesome and if you go in expecting crap and explosions, it's fun. This coming from someone who hates modern action films.

Will watch for to see all these action superstars in a single film.


Not to mention that he has a facial condition. From wikipedia: Complications his mother suffered during labor forced her obstetricians to use two pairs of forceps during his birth; misuse of these accidentally severed a nerve and caused paralysis in parts of Stallone's face, resulting in his signature slurred speech and drooping lower lip.

I would disappear too, if I had a pile of money and could nail Miranda Kerr whenever I wanted.

I see they have a character named "Lee Christmas" in the movie. WTF? I gather this is supposed to be a contemporary setting. I thought Lee Christmas died over 86 years ago. For those of you not in the know, Lee Christmas was a famous American soldier of fortune active in Central America for a couple of decades circa 1900.

If they're going to name their characters after historical figures like that, they probably should have included "the Grey-Eyed Man of Destiny"--William Walker!

Van Damme's pulling out of the film kinda bummed me out...but Dolph taking his place is killer. Rocky IV rematch!
Although, even if JCVD was still attached, Dolph should still have been in it.

This is my childhood dream coming true. Just throw in Steven Segal (I know he is washed-up, but still. His presence would have been a gift) and some other 80's badass martial artists like Jeff Speakman and the dude from the American Ninja series and it's pure gold.
