THE EXPENDABLES (Sylvester Stallone, 2010)

[Jox]

At the LA Film Festival

Holy shit man that's awesome!! Wish I could get the cut-out of Dolph and stick it in my garden to deter burglars, Stallone can have the back garden and the cut-out of Rourke would make an effective scarecrow for any farmer with a bird problem.

[Jox]

Haha great idea!

Is it me (and the Dolphan in me) speaking or Dolph (and Sly) actually stands out more than the others?

I think that is because Sly is centre and if you look to the four on his right, Stath, Willis etc they are a lot more crammed together than the four on his left, also Dolph is taller than everyone else really and he's a little in front of Couture and standing next to Jet Li, so yeah I agree I think those two stand out the most... although one would have thought the inclusion of Rourke dressed as a Mexican from The Shepherd would have stood out more against eight badasses...

So the Los Angeles/Hollywood premiere will be held on August 3 at the Grauman's Chinese Theater (the one with a RAMBO III poster in TWINS)

I would kill to have one of those standees (that's what they're called, right?)

And I know I posted this before, but just so that nobody misses it: since the swedish distributor seems unsure if they'll release The Expendables in swedish theaters ( ), a petition has been made to convince them that any hesitation on their part is pure insanity! Please sign, I don't think it matters if you're swedish or not:

Signed dude!! Pretty ridiculous and probably quite disappointing for Dolph, his cinematic comeback and his home country refusing to show it!! Come on!!

Let's not jump to conclusions here, there seems to be a lot of confusion and uncertainty. There's NO way THE EXPENDABLES is not gonna make it to Sweden, I bet it'll be released, just maybe not in August...

[MFS]

Yeah I should clarify that it's possible the swedish distributor will release The Expendables theatrically later, but it will probably be in the winter, maybe not even until next year, and us swedish fans don't want to have wait for several months while you lucky ones get's to see it in August! Of course, if that happened I'd probably go to Norway or Finland to see it, but still, that's not an option for everyone.

I hope you're right, Jox, and that it will all work out, maybe it'll get an early September release? That would be acceptable, at least. You'd think that with Dolph's popularity through Melodifestivalen, this would be a non-issue ...

And thank you to everyone who have signed the petition so far!

okay, i signed, my Dolphee, i just hope it was for all the right reasons. Some of the wording is in Swedish and i don't know what it means .




i wonder if there is some sort of rope, off camera, that helped Dolph pick up Jet Li like that over his head (and without getting a hernia ). how did he pick him up like that? i guess i have to see the movie to find out. Jet Li probably helped him out a bit. sheesh, that's strong to be able to do that, and over ur head. impressive .

.GOD bless you

[Jox]

Not to break the magic of movie making but yes of course they're a cable, and I think it's not Jet Li here but just his stunt double.

[Tom]

To do that move properly for real, you'd have to do a nut grab. Just ask The Ultimate Warrior.

First look at the UK poster quad?

Not impressed to be honest, I might be nit-picking here but does it look to you guys like they are standing in a coal fire? Where are the guns, (apart from Li's) and why do the characters have such bad colouring? Pretty gay poster to be honest. Masses of space at the sides which they could have fitted Dolph and/or Austin into, (whose name doesn't even appear on the poster), they are playing this Arnie cameo for all it's worth. Shoddy effort yet again.
