I know there was a Commando and Rambo team up script knocking around several years back
To me, that sounds like a potentially horrible concept. Don't get me wrong, seeing Arnie and Sly in the same movie would have been incredible, but a Commando / Rambo team-up is not the way to go about it.

Actually, I doubt it. Their movies did well financially back in the 80s because they were two of the biggest stars in the world, and because people loved that kind of movie; the one-man-army kind of movie. However, those films are increasingly rare now. Today's action stars are not the beefed-up testosterone cases of the 80s - instead, we have the likes of Jason Bourne or Neo. I believe Rambo had a decent turn theatrically, but it didn't re-ignite Stallone's career. He wasn't catapulted back onto Hollywood's A-list. Arnie's last big movie - Terminator 3 - was largely panned by the critics, and he hasn't made a film since; though this is of course due to his political commitments.
So, even if Sly and Arnie were to team up for an action movie, it won't work wonders for either of them. They're not in their physical prime any more.
