OFFICIAL TRAILER!

Great trailer. Wish there was more Lundgren but just seeing his name rattled off with the rest has me stoked like you wouldn't believe.

Holly cow! 8)

Yeah not nearly enough Dolph, they could at least have given him one punchline (maybe they want him to be a more striking character when people see the movie?).

It seems like this trailer downplays the humor that was seen in the promo real. If not for that I think the "Happy Feet" line would be in there.

But again I'm excited to see his name flash on screen with the rest. Wonder why Terry Crews isn't listed? I know he's not a huge star but I figure if Couture is mentioned then so should Crews.

All in all a terrific trailer that should go over well with audiences.

I quite like that they've not given too much of the bad guys away. It seems from the script, and some early buzz from those involved on the film too, that Dolph is gonna be a standout alongside Rourke and Statham. So I'm glad they're not giving too much of Dolph's character away. It'll hopefully be a nice surprise.

But it's great to see Dolph getting to shine as a bad guy (or dark character) again. He stole Unisol: Regeneration. He really was awesome in that. With Stallone directing him, this could be Dolphs best role yet.

Well, I just saw the trailer, and while I'm technically speechless because of all the awesomeness it, almost literary, threw in my face, :wink: I still have a few comments on it.

First of all, I think the trailer has a better balance between the "seriousness" and the "humour" then the promo footage - it actually looks kind of dark, even a bit somber now, which is all good to me, gives it just enough "depth." Secondly, the mention of Dolph was really great to see, glad they did that. Yes, the footage is too brief, but looking from the bright side, it makes the wait to see him on the big screen even more exciting. Gunnar Jensen looks like a very scary guy, big and evil, also a bit mysterious, should definitely make an impression. And thirdly, I think spoiling the Willis and Schwarzenegger cameos is a bit unnecessary, but I guess it's good promotion, and most people probably knew about it anyway, so I don't mind.

Conclusion: awesome, promising trailer that continues to build upon my already sky-high hype for this movie! Just a few months to go ... :D

Oh and here's a link for those, like me, who prefer to watch videos on Youtube (my Internet connection isn't very good :( )

Thanks for the info Jox, I was wondering about that song.


The trailer looks nice. Like others, I I thought it was a little reserved with teh Dolph footage, but as some others have said, it might ake his character more striking. It is really great to see him back in an A-list movie really contributing with a nice role.

This is a pretty epic moment for any Dolph fan, but possibly even more so for me, having not seen Lundgren on the big screen before. Reckon I'm gonna see this once for every action hero that's in it... :wink: The trailer was really slick and totally like "WOW" in terms of epic moments. It's so disappointing that some of these action heroes didn't team up in the 90's like Arnie and Stallone and Dolph would have provided a great bad guy to any of the combos. Say what you like, Dolph will always rule as a bad guy, it's nice to see him play the good guy and he's cool in Command Performance, but nothing beats his psycho bad guy antics. I can't wait for his fight with Jet Li or to see his performance.

Me too. I'm gonna watch for Dolph (1 time) and for Gary Daniels (2nd time). Maybe a 3rd time for the rest of the cast. ^^

I think the trailer is awesome. I've already watched it a few times out of sheer anticipation. But am I the only one who's a bit disappointed that the Schwarzenegger and Willis cameos were spoiled?? These should have been a surprise. I understand they did it for marketing purposes, but the film would have done (is going to do) just fine without spoiling this... The editors made a huge mistake in letting that footage be seen early. Just my opinion. Whattya think???
