Great pic :)

Very good pic! Nice cool cover...
As for Bodybuilding.com's Expendable's Workout articles, the numbers and hits on them are just incredible.

Oh, and look for Expendables II to come out in 2 years, perhaps with Bruce Willis as a bad guy too...

Don't know about that. It needs to be profitable before any studio touches it for a sequel. Right now it isn't doesn't look like a huge money maker. It has barely made more than it took to make. They need to make at least 3 times production cost to be considered a substantial success. Who knows though

The pirated copy of it's R5 (region 5) DVD release is already out in all the warez and other download sites, torrents etc, which is going to put a big dent into how it does in the box office. The same thing happened with 'The chronicles of Riddick'.
Tens of thousands if not way more are now going to see it online rather than watch it in the theatres, because it got leaked out this early into it's release.
-
last i saw it made 82million..how much did it take to make anyway?

hhaha, sorry to say this, but this is pathetic.
I absolutely LOVED the people claiming "Avatar" was a shitty movie after they watched the pirate version off the internet.

x2. He is face really looks way overdone: too much air brushing I suspect. Or too much cosmetic surgery. Either way it looks horribly doctored. :-[

Well, he's from Hollywood and these guys are on everything... ::) ::)
I was just kidding. Relax.

All his appearances are CGI. He is with us in spirit and soul though. He is what he is.

Well, why wouldn't BB be on this? You can train more often and don't need to sleep anymore. Marion Jones used it for training.
But i guess it's more a broker-drug than a BB-drug, lol.

Would you do Sly, BayBGM?... ;)

Would you do Sly, BayBGM?... ;)
offcourse.. hes a guy.
-
he is too old for another action movie.
don't get me wrong he looks great for a guy in his 70's ( apart from his chicken legs), but whenever he had to run in the expendables he looked like he was really in pain and struggling.
i have loved most if not all of his movies, but i think its time to retire and produce an exciting new action movie with a new action star.
statham seems to be the only real action movie start out there at the moment. :-\

Picture your local town's hot spot where hourly wage earners dress up in their afflicition clothes, skin tight jeans and bring out their 2007 mustang with fake GT or cobra decals.
Stallone dresses like those assholes.

well even in his 60's he looks great.

Would be interesting to see him in real life - if he looks better or worse than in pics.
-
only thing that looks dodgy to me are his eyes. looks like they made them blue like when he was in judge dredd. Apart from that, looking solid

Nothing beats watching a movie in the movie theater. This is especially true for blockbusters full of special effects. Even plasma T.Vs with 1,800 pixels of resolution do not give the same realistic images and flow of physical motion that cinema gives you.

That's just domestic. Overseas markets and dvd/blu-ray will bring in good coin. A sequel will happen. Sly knows sequels.

His eyes in that cover shot make it seem like he doesn't have a soul.

Watch it, convict! >:(

his best movie was NightHawks...
-
Avenging Angelo was unforgiveably bad
figures it was filmed in Hamilton :-X
-
sly > arnie
Bahahahaha yeah right. Not even funny arnie trumps him all round. Of course he looks like shit now but he's a fucking governor. He ain't got the time. He still looked way better in his prime and got more than being a sub par actor on his resume.

I agree. But there are lots of people out there who don't care and watch stuff online because it's there, after which they wait for the DVD / BR to come out. Then there are the tons of people who can't afford to watch movies in the theatre.
The leaked out R5 DVD release has already had a few hundred thousand downloads online, so I'm sure it's going to put a dent in the film's profits.

Maybe sly is cutting back on his acting. Hell he could have had the storyline with the chick ( not the hispanic one) and let the rest of the crew fill in the spaces
Dolph had a good run with the unhinged merc role.

Sly is in the same category as Arnold and Norris. They have an attaction that sells tickets. Neither of them can actually act like a real actor. They basically can play themselves in different parts. None fo them will win an Oscar for acting. Chuck won an award called the Golden Eagle for a spot he did for United Way which I setup. A full page ad in Variety was taken out by his agent to congratulate him. Of course I didn't get anything. My good friend was the producer and director of the spot. The theme was "You are my hero" and they wanted Chuck. he knew he was a friend of mine and asked me to set up a meeting. Chuck met with him. They flew him to Washinton D.C. on a privater jet to shoot the 15 minute short. I had a 90 minute outtake reel from the shoot. It was hilarious cause Chuck had never read from a teleprompter. He was really bad. Well it ended up a great spot. Took longer than expected. Chuck kept the $2000 Armani trench coat (my friend wanted it) and it ended up being shown in Washington at the annual United Way dinner where they use the short to raise funds from Fortune 500 companies. The film has been used to raise billions of dollars in donations. story continies...............
Well a few years later Chuck get a series called Walker Texas Ranger. Joe C my friend has been trying to get ahold of Chuck to direct an episode of Walker. Joe's resume is very respectful. Well Chuck never returned any of his calls. So Joe calls me to try and get Chuck to let him direct. Well at my 33rd BB I came with my girlfriend from hawaii to vegas and Chuck is there. So, as we were talkign I brought up that Joe has been trying to get ahold of him about Walker. Chuck tells me he never recieved any calls and didn't even know Joe could direct that type of show. Well Chuck when he gets back calls Joe and he ends up directing 14 episodes. I think back then joe was getting between $40,000 and $60,000 an show. So he made out really good. Oh by the way I didn't make a dime from any of the above projects.
Why did I talk about this. I have no idea but it was therapuetic to me. I have vent sometimes. And you guys are the ones who have to suffer now. Thanks for being there for me. Where in the hell were you when this all happened. I know you guys would have made sure I got something. Oh well thats okay. Karma is finally coming my way. What took it so long though

Yeas now there is a base for a sequel. Hollywood Hot Tubs is one of the original very low budget how grossing films. Nothing compared to recent ones like those two ghost ones. I can't remember the names. But under a million to make and gross over $200 to $300 million. WOW!

Fall asleep on methamphetamines?....uhh... not bloody likely..
MDMA (3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine, commonly known as ecstasy, often abbreviated "E" or "X") is an entactogenic drug of the phenethylamine and amphetamine families.
MDMA is not a stimulant; it merely shares a phenylethylamine structure with amphetamines. MDMA has little adrenergic and noradrenergic actions and act mostly on the indolamine, serotonin. It actually mellows you out.

dude, you don't know what you are talking about.
not a flame. just fact.
re-read my post- thats the facts.

Anyone who's taken mdma knows you ain't sleeping for the next eight hours,it may chill you out but your also rushing like you've taken 20 e at once
-
LOL, you should get into rehab, son.
yeah, i should. :D
actually im not a pill head. but i know M like the back of my hand.
i can tell you good M from it's smell and its taste. good M will have a smell reminiscent of black licorice to it. it'll taste very bitter. almost like an acidic compound of some nature- but it is very distinctive, almost numbing as well. in bulk (say an ounce) it'll look like anything from brown sugar to a harder more flaky darker substance- think something like little shards of glass the colour of coffee- typically this stuff will smell like sassafras (sp?) or more chemically by nature. it should be easily crushed with a little pressure into a finer powder- if you need a coffee grinder to crush it then it's prolly MCPP- a metabolite of the M family passed off as MDMA.
there is zero stimulant effect to MDMA, actually it'll make you too mashy at some doses.
a lot of people mistakenly believe M to have stimulant like properties because it is the primary compound in a tablet of ecstasy- but it isnt the M that gives you the speed type feeling off a pill, its the other adulterants they add to it, such as ephedrine, caffeine and in some cases crystal, though not often.
here ends your crash course in MDMA.

Just a bit related here but this movie talk stuff brings back memories which some of you might be interest in.
Regarding movie production costs and eventual profits ......
Back in the 60's some of the stunt guys and gals and regular extras used to "barrow" from the major studios whatever they needed to make a 'quickie flicker' on the weekends.
These were usually motorcycle movies because most of the guys/gals had bikes and somehow these flicks eventually got released to foreign distributors (mostly Asian theaters) and a few of the remaining drive in theaters throughout the US as second features.
If there was any profit, it was shared equally.
I didn’t have a bike, so I was usually the dead guy that the bikers ran over. (I never got paid!)
It was very important to get the ‘borrowed stuff’ back to the studios early Monday mornings before it was discovered missing, but I think that the studio heads knew what was going on all the time and didn’t press the issue.
DR, Whatever happened to 2nd features and all those old time mortorycycle movies?

Low budget movies are still around. They're just called 'independent' pics, now, and usually funded by some distributing arm of one of the majors to maintain some semblance of 'indie' cred. Easy Rider renewed interest in the motorcycle flick, just putting counter-culture spin on The Wild One (which is now kinda lame). There were lots of them. I remember William Smith was in a slew of them and I think I remember seeing Joe Namath in one!? They tried to romanticize the biker, The Hell's Angel, and (I might be wrong here) Sonny Barger had something to do with one. He's not a very romantic guy. They just went out of style.
