80's Babies' Wet Dream: The Official EXPENDABLES 2 Thread

rapmastermind · November 2011

Ok, "Expendables" 1 could of been better but I respect Stallone's vision. Well the movie on an 80 Million budget ended up doing close to 300 Million worldwide becoming one of the most successful Independent films ever. Everyone in the movie took pay cuts including Stallone to do it. After the success the crew is back for one more adventure and this time Stallone isn't going to disappoint fans. Cause of scheduling conflicts, he couldn't get the true cast he wanted in the 1st one. With the new poster, anyone who grew up in the 80's will be there for sure:

Classic shit, the only ppl missing are Wesley (Jail for Tax Evation), Steven Segal (Beef with one of the producers) and Carl Weathers (Beef with Stallone) but having Sly, Arnold and Bruce in a long part not just a cameo is Classic enough. Anyone excited about this? I sure am.

Stallone wanted to use stock footage of Apollo in "Rocky 6" but Carl wanted to be in the movie which didn't make sense cause the character was dead. So he then asked Stallone for more money for it and then they had a fall out. Stallone reached out again for Expendables but Carl was still salty cause "Rocky 6" Actually made dough. Segal wanted to do it but he's still beefing with a producer over a different film. Wesley of course got a raw deal on that tax ish, would of loved to see him in this. I agree the 1st one was hit or miss but the action was still solid.

Chuck Norris looks so out of place for some reason. Looks like a friendly senior citizen who wandered into the shot.

And I think Stallone and Weathers got beef because Apollo wanted some crazy compensation to appear in Rocky Balboa or something.

darkone360 · November 2011

i don't care what anybody says, i liked the 1st one. i mean c'mon fellas, this is a MAN'S movie. damn the foofy dialogs and sensitive azzz emotions, expendables is the type of movie where a bar room brawl breaks out in the middle of the movie theater, b/c mofos get into a dispute about who killed more people...stallone or schwarzenegger

darkone360 · November 2011

smh @ mofos still holding 80's grudges.

young chad · November 2011

Damn, the first one sucked? That's news to me..that shit was epic as fuck to me...just straight up nigga's fucking each other up and shooting big ass guns...had some funny dialogue thrown in...it was like watching a bunch of Vikings with guns, shit was awesome haha. I agree about Norris, him and Van Damme look sooo outta place...I can't imagine this nigga in the movie...I'm SO glad Stallone is doing this though, I wish it woulda happened 20 years ago but it's kinda cool that they're doing it as old men too...kinda on some history lesson type shit...I just wish Arnold was still in Commando shape...too bad he became Governor or have NO doubt that he'd be on HGH like Sly and be buff as fuck...also, Hogan should be in this shit haha

Stop leaving the females out! Not all of us like The Notebook (never seen it) or My Best Friend's Wedding type stuff. I was amped for the first one and can't wait to see this one.

SMH @ Carl Weathers. What else are you doing that you couldn't put aside your pride and make some money?

MR.CJ · November 2011

this shit looks GOAT

imm0rt4l · November 2011

The expendables was such a shitty flick, don't really expect much of this either.

Bcotton5 · November 2011

Terry Crews with that automatic shotgun with explosive rounds was GOAT

stoneface · November 2011

I Havent seen the first one. They need Kurt Russel in this shit. Too bad Wesley Snipes is locked up cuz he needs to be in this, too.

I agree with that, he can play a Snake Plissken type of role in it.

allied · November 2011

I didn't think the first one was good but that poster I would buy and put on my wall. SMH at Arnie and Stallone not doing a movie together in their primes.

I agree, I think ppl really over analyzed the 1st one. It's was nothing more than an homage to 1980's action which was killed off by films like "The Matrix". After that film, Martial Arts came back to the forefront and hard core action films fell to the waist side. What makes "Expendables" franchise ILL to me is Stallone is including all styles of action from Just hard core military ish to martial artist to police type ish and government. The cast for Part 2 is the real cast he 1st envision but people didn't fully believe in the concept and scheduling conflicts messed things up. I hope Expendables 3 can get Wesley when he gets out of jail, Stallone and Action Jackson can squash their beefs and Segal can stop being mad with beef also over money and that producer. All I know this was a Brillant Idea on Stallone Part. Sure it would of been iller if this dropped late 80's or early 90's but better late than never. I mean Sly, Arnold, Bruce, Van Damme and Chuck Norris all in the same movie? Those are the premier action stars of the 1980's right there. It's epic. Again I liked Part 1, was the story and concept weak? Sure but the action was intense and that's what I paid to see.

MikeydaGawd · November 2011

holy shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Biggwillie · November 2011

The 1st movie had some hardcore action but it's no where near the GOAT ACTION films ever. But this film coming up clearly has the GOAT action cast ever assembled for a motion picture.

cobbland · November 2011

Good lineup.

80's-90s action film stars actually looked like they could beat some ass if needed.

Not these androgynous, 98 pound vampire looking, fake supernatural ability having queers that are in films now.

Copper · November 2011

I didnt see this thread when I made mine...I guess mine got deleted?

anyway...JCVD will always be my favorite but arnold, stallone and bruce are the kings of this shit...im glad to see stallone got most of whom he wanted..snipes and chan shouldve been in stathams and crews place though. this is no doubt the dream team of action film casts. to bad a few folks cant put petty shit aside to be part of something larger than life. and the female role shouldve went to janjee or michelle yeoh.

Charles Bronson wouldve made a nice cameo in this film...RIP (or eastwood)
