BAD ASS ARTWORK: Stallone’s ‘The Expendables’

Expendables?

For a second I thought it was about non-working people 65 or older in the Obamacare bill.

If the movie is half as cool as the poster and cast, I'm there.

The last Rambo flick was a hoot.

If I knew nothing else about the movie, given the current Hollywood climate, this poster alone would guarantee my butt in a seat.

For Christsakes, I was being facetious. Can't you understand sarcasm?

I still think the artwork is great.

Looks a hell of lot like something I drew in pen and ink and got paid 50 bucks for way back in college days…wonder if I still have an old copy of that…litigation time!!!

When I first heard about this movie I felt my testosterone levels go up by %50. This movie is an answer to all those wimpy "action" stars like Matt "MAAATTT DAAMMOONN" Damon.

"The Expendables" – a perfect commentary on the way the elites see our military. And the funny thing is, you guys embrace this! LOL! Maybe you guys don't deserve freedom. Just to go off and die for the bankers in foreign wars.

On that we can agree! What can I say? Long day at work.

I've read an interview with Sly where he said he wasn't a conservative in a book about Ali. I love this idea however about a rag-tag team of military men taking down a Chavez or Castro-like dictator. For an apparent lib, Sly doesn't seem to show his leftie ID as others are so fond of doing (his backing of Mccain and so forth) or maybe since then he's had a change of heart, who knows, I may be spouting untrue nonsense about him. I'll probably show up to my theater to see this on opening day!

No……………………………….they're called Soylent Green, not expendables.

Wow……………..that picture reminds me of what it would look like under the perfect Christmas tree.

Wow.

Looks like fun, and with a heck of a cast for an action flick. Looking it up on IMDB also credits Bruce Willis and The Governator in it as well.

Just curious, if it turns out it was Israel that attacked us on 9/11 and not some convenient "rag heads" – will you be in favor of killing Jews?

PS Above poster is awesome.

you'all seen latest Rambo!!!! friggin awesome!!! totally hardcore conservative!!!

Where's the photographic evidence? Where's the men flashing Mossad badges and jumping for joy (a curiously open and obvious display for intelligence professionals)? All I heard on that tape was a bunch of idiots talking up the same old conspiracy theories. And again, what's the logic? Why attack a nation that according to you Israel needs for its survival. Why systematically attack a nation Israel needs for its survival? There is no logic to any of it.

It's a load of horseshit. Osama bin Laden has admitted he ordered the attacks be done. KSM admitted he planned them. 9/11 was the work Sunni Muslim extremists bent on killing Americans.

Does Pat Buchanan and Ron Paul know you're up this late …?

Get back on your meds, you little dhimmi.

Design one with Pitchforks and Torches.

Oh sh*t that's funny!!!

That is really funny, like the new word that you coined.

There is a whole lot of stuff there already, but what the heck.

You have to admit, the Jewish people are doing something right if they can get every irrational biggot from the Nazi Party, the Black Panthers, The Klan and the far Left to hate them. If you can get THAT many scumbags to hate you, your ahead of the game.

If the trailer is any indication, the artwork may be the best thing about the movie.

Plot writeup at Wikipedia reminds me of The Wild Geese (1978). (Now THERE was a mercenary movie.)

Don't take your wives or girlfriends to this movie. There's so much manly testosterone on the screen that they'll be spontaneously impregnated.

You fought against the Federal Government? If so, I would regard what you have done fighting for freedom because Federal, State and local government is the biggest threat to any American's freedom.

Actually it doesn't make any sense. Israel's only major gain has been the elimination of Saddam Hussein, a dictator who repeatedly tried to goad Israel into the Gulf War by firing scuds at the country. Israel, heroically withstood the assault, knowing its entry into the war would jeopardize the Coalition's wartime alliance with Saudi Arabia and endanger the whole war.

The above quote sounds like common sense from an Israeli bigshot. 9/11 woke up Americans to the threat from Islamic terror, and thus made America a new full-time partner in the fight against terror.

Israel did not perpetrate 9/11. There is not a shred of evidence, not a single reliable witness nor even the foggiest hint of smoke over that conspiracy theory. It exists solely because of both Jihadis and your own preoccupation with Jews.

Every time a member of my family goes to Israel, they are greeted with warmth and kindness. It is a beautiful, diverse country. There are Ethiopian Jews, European Jews, Iranian Jews, Iraqi Jews, Black American Jews, Druze, Christians, Palestinian Arabs (voting citizens, by the way) and even Assyrians. They've done so much, built such a vibrant country in a little more than a half century. If any country in the Middle East should be protected, it is Israel, a bastion of Western democracy and freedom in a land of darkness.

yawn. Keep ignoring all the truth that doesn't mesh with you're kooky narrative.

sell crazy? You specialize in selling crazy.

Oh, by the way, “Randy dropped off this little gift for everyone… his bbc interview.

They kind of remind me of the Spartans, in that with just a small army they can so totally outclass their opponents. I hope I get the chance to visit Israel again if I can earn my dream of becoming a Marine, and train with some of the IDF boys. That and the Japanese Self-Defense Forces. I would like to see Japan go nuclear and muscle-up again so we can have more leverage over China.

Ya, good comparison. Pursue the Marine Corps dream, that's great. I have massive repect for all Marines.
Japan is limited by their Constitution to being purely a defensive force with very limited rolls for it's military, but if North Korea keeps up their crap, with the Red Chinese complicity, they may step up and take a stronger stand. I'd support them 100%.

"More trustworthy than whom, exactly? Their religious book, the Talmud, teaches it is ok to kill or cheat gentiles. "

No it doesn't. The exact verse you're referring to was written during the era of Hadrian's persecution of Jews and the Bar Kokhba Revolt, when Jews were in a state of war with gentiles. The passage has always been interpreted as a wartime call to Jews to destroy their enemies, as Jews (particularly those rebelling against the Roman empire) were constantly outnumbered and ill-equipped, and nothing except total destruction of the enemy would suffice.

Actually read the entirety of the Talmud, and not the forgeries and proven fallacious material such as Pranaitis's book, before you pass such judgment.

The vast majority of Jews I've met have been honest and forthright in their dealings with me.

Be glad that we have Freedom of Speech, otherwise some of the twaddle you and Obombus spout would be tantamount to treason.

It looks like the perfect Stallone movie.

Finally!

After all these years, Stallone's finally got his movie!

A decade ago, Willis and Schwarzenegger were supposed to star in it.

To be honest, I've been dying to see this movie since Stallone first talked about this dream movie of his a long time ago. August can't get here soon enough!

Or instantly comparing the masculinity of our friends and boyfriends and husbands.

My thoughts exactly, Mamba! Good for him! I hope it's a success!

Favorite exchange (paraphrase):

Rambo: "Are you bringing any guns?"

Aid Worker: "Of Course not!"

Rambo: "You're not changing anything"

So much testosterone will be in the air, men will start getting pregnant!

Is there any way Stallone can digitally re-insert footage of Charles Bronson into this film? Then it will officially have the baaaaadest-ass cast of all time.

If Chuck Norris was in this movie, we wouldn't need the other guys. On a side note, I was kind of disappointed BH didn't have a birthday thread for Chuck.

This is a Hong Kong Triad-Style action flick Writ Large, much like hardboiled. There will be ham and cheese and Michael Bay level Explosions and a bunch of action stars having fun. What's not to like?

ROTFLMAO…!!

I'm not quite sure what this is about, but I'll put $20 on Jet Li for the win in the 4th round.

I wonder if I can get my wife to get this…even temporarily…

Oh, is she in "trouble" when she gets home today…

Woof, woof,whuuuufffff!!!!

A movie where the good guys thump the bad guys WITHOUT all that emo metrosexual angst…??

AND the "bad guys" are the REAL bad guys….?????

I hope the thing makes a bazillion dollars, inspires merchandising from toys to firearms, and embarrasses everyone in Hollyweird who keeps shoving "Green Zone" shite off on us….

Thinking about that would induce shrinkage…

ROTFLMAO!!!!

He's still mad from when everyone moved on from mauve and turquoise…all those wooden silhouettes of coyotes with neckerchiefs tied around them he has to sell off…

Can you picture that painted on the side of AF1…………all BIG and BOLD.

Yes, but if Chuck was in it………………..all those girls would have to sit this one out…………………
