At ShoWest a couple of weeks ago, a new trailer for Sylvester Stallone's balls out action flick, The Expendables was shown to extremely lucky masses. Unfortuanately we couldn't get our hands on it, even with offerings of our first born sons and certain unnecessary limbs. So we had to wait a couple of weeks, but now here it is, courtesy of Yahoo Movies. And yeah, it looks as badass as we always thought it would. Check it out for yourself, followed by a couple of quick comments....
Ok, is this going to be the greatest movie ever, or what? Excluding for a second that all of the action sequences look simply awesome, it's the dialogue scenes where you have these icons just riffing off one another. It's just crazy the collection of stars that are in this. How could you not crack a smile at that clip of Stallone, Willis, and the Governator all together in one room? Could you imagine what would happen if a nuke were to hit that set? We'd lose about a 100 years worth of action flick greatness right there. It'd be tragic.
After a quick examination of all of our posts over the last two years, no other film has been written about more than The Expendables, with roughly 20 articles so far. So to say we're more excited than a dog in heat is to do an injustice to all horny bitches everywhere. Hm, that's gonna come out all wrong, I know it. Who cares? I'm hyped!
My only question now is how is this going to play with audiences? With The Losers and The A-Team squabbling with eachother to see which one can get released first, I think The Expendables has the obvious leg up in terms of star power, but there's no denying these are three very similar looking movies. Will there be action burnout? Only time will tell.
