Pretty much all of Stallone's and Arnie's films back in the 80's and 90's are pure classics! :D

You really can't beat them.

This. They are a vintage of their own and I doubt we'll ever see their like again. :(

Unfortunately so :(


And will never see the same quality/style of actors like Stallone and especially Arnie either :( No one can replace them!

Their films just wouldn't work nowadays, although thankfully Sly and Arnie have got a film coming out next year, which sounds like a good old classic :D

The Tomb

Shame they aren't in their prime though :p It was stupid of them to not have paired up in some films back then, although originally Arnie was suppose to play Ivan Drago in Rocky 4 but Dolph Lundgren pretty much begged Sly to give him a chance and ended up being very impressed with the way he portrayed the character so give the role to him instead, can't blame him, as he suited the part extremely well :p

No, Expendables can **** off and die.

Stupid boring committee designed drivel marketed by bland stock characters played by actors people stopped caring about decades ago.

There are movies I put in the class of "mindless fun", Expendables crosses that line, turns around and takes a **** on it.

Apparently featuring 50 cent.

I would rather kiss an angle grinder.

Lol, wow. Sounds like you took it more seriously than you were supposed to.
To me it was Sly getting some of his buddies together for a laugh, playing soldiers and filming it.
I took it for that and really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the 2nd one personally.

Well said.

For me it could have been a 90 minute montage of Sly and his chums dual wielding M60's from the hip, throwing out cheesy one liners, and mowing down enough bad guys to fill Wembley Stadium and I still would have sat there with a big grin on my face. :D

Lol, absolutely.
And the sequal has Van Damme, and CHUCK NORRIS in as well.
Winnage!
 
The word from Comic-Con 2012 is that Dredd is really good and extremely violent. It seems the free screening has been met with plenty of praise and that Urbans performance of Dredd is excellent.
Dredd never removes his bulky helmet, so Urban has to work with only the lower half of his face and the inflection in his voice. He does it wonderfully. The character easily transitions from wry to sardonic to serious to authoritative to protective to weary. It’s all the ingredients we want from an old-fashioned bad-ass, and Urban cooks them into to a terrific action hero.

Thanfully this has been picking up positive reviews and certainly doesn't seem to be the dud that a lot of people suspected.

Saw the trailer and it looked rubbish.

Interestingly the lower reviews still seem to think the film is really good and ripe for a sequel with an increased budget.
