I watched them arrive but not the rest. Insanity! That was cool. Dolph got a little over-shadowed in the TV-production at least. How was it live on scene Jox?

[Jox]

It was madness!!!

Too bad Sly cut it short and everybody followed, as Dolph and Jason didn't get the chance to say a word. Funny to see JC do a kick to Dolph who just chuckled but no Cannes 92 remake.

So Jox,

how was the movie?

[Jox]

It's badassness from start to finish, straight to the point, you don't see it go by, Dolph's very good in it, really shows off his comedic skills (out in a subtle way, not too tongue in cheek), everybody's on the top of their game!

[GeneralMcFaiL]

Does he get a lot more screentime this time around Jox?

[Jox]

Oh yeah for sure, from start to finish! And still you wish there was a lot more because you can never have too much Dolph, especially as Gunnar! The way the movie is edited it, almost seems he has more "acting" scenes than action but that's because they have so many guys to cover during the action. I'm hoping for a longer cut though because I can tell had a lot more footage (some of which I saw being shot). But yeah Dolph's performance in this sequel might lead him to better and more varied roles because it really shows a side of him that's rarely been taped before...

Thanks for uploading the Paris premiere videos. On a non-Dolph-related note, it's good to see Van Damme there helping to promote the film. However, he's looking mighty gaunt and thin... I wonder if everything's okay...

[Jox]

I heard him say he went vegetarian or vegan for his character in ENNEMIES CLOSER... Too bad like two years ago Sly cut short the presentation before Dolph and Statham could say anything. And at the press conference this morning, D didn't get to say too much either. But he's done interviews alongside Jean-Claude for really good mainstream French TV channels (if they decide to air them) and a really good edgy magazine called "Les Inrockuptibles" or "Les Inrocks" (something that would have never happened 15 years ago so it's really cool to have him in this mag!

I've just seen helicopter clip, Smart clip and comic con clip and I must say I'm not impressed by CGi at all. This helicopter looks almost like something from Asylum studio production. And CGI water? WTF?

Is there much more of this kind of CGI in the movie?

[Jox]

I haven't even noticed in that scene and honestly it starts at a pace that is so fast that you get too caught by the film to pay attention (I noticed the CGI way more in the first one). Let's wait for you to see the movie first guys (and me to see it again to get a better perspective) and we can talk more!

Fantastic... his name keeps popping up in reviews and doing all this press/Fallon this coming monday you really feel like this time around he's gonna finally get another shot at more theatrical roles!!
