Re: The Expendables 2 (2012)

This is the movie I am most looking forward to. I seriously hope they have a lot of the older action stars in it, as well as the cast that was in the first one. As long as they didn't die in the first one anyways. I heard they were bringing back Steve Austin, but considering he died, I don't know why they would.

Just a few more months away. I think this is the one movie I am most excited for. If you haven't seen the trailer yet you should check it out. It is a orgasm waiting to happen.

Of course the only thing that would make it better would be a little Tommy Lee Jones action.

If Tommy Lee Jones and Alan Rickman were in it, the movie would never leave theaters.

Alan Rickman, excellent thinking sir

You mean THIS Tommy Lee Jones?

Just kidding, haha.



I enjoyed the first Expendables first, though I wish we had seen more of Jet Li in action. Jason Stratham stole the show there.

I'm glad Bruce Willis is getting a bigger role in the sequel.

Jason Stratham stole the show there.

No shit, him throwing knives at people = greatness. As long as the sequel continues in this vein, it'll be a success.

I wouldn't mind a crazy Gary Busey like in Under Siege in the Film either.

YJason Stratham stole the show there.

I didn't think Statham was anything special in The Expendables, he was basically just his same character with the added bonus of knives in his arsenal. Lundgren was for more compelling as a character and if anyone really stole the show I'd say it was either him or Arnold in his brief cameo.

Me neither, but I don't think they have his cocaine included in the budget for the film.

Hes of the powder now, plus he could use the payday since he got booted off of Celebrity Apprentice last year. Hell just throw Hogan and Sting into the movie for 80's nostalgia.

How about Piper instead? I'd love to see him smash a coconut over Jet Li's head.

If only the Macho Man was alive I would put hin in there.

Yeah, he would have been awesome as his Bonesaw character from Spider Man.

Dolph Lundgren is in it ... it's already going to sell out!
