Fan-Made Trailer for EXPENDABLES 2 is Not Approved for People Who Hate America and Fun

by Dave Trumbore    Posted: May 23rd, 2012 at 5:28 pm

Do you love America?  Do you love guns, explosions, muscles, action, tanks, explosions, violence, fighting and explosions?  If you do, then you’re a lot like me, pal.  And we’ve got mutual friends in The Monocular Group, who have put this awesome fan trailer together for The Expendables 2.  They’re also here to remind us that long before a bunch of gussied-up prima donnas assembled to fight evil, there were men to handle our problems: big, strong men with powerful guns and boots on the ground.  In a summer dominated by superhero fare, let us not forget the men that built the foundation of the action movie.  These men include Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Chuck Norris, Dolph Lundgren, Jason Statham, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Jet Li, Randy Couture and Terry Crews. The Expendables 2 also stars Liam Hemsworth, who has something to prove, and Scott Adkins, who should feel right at home with this crew.  The movie opens this August 17th in America, the Land of Guns and Awesome.  Hit the jump to check out the trailer.

First Full-Length Trailer for THE EXPENDABLES 2

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: May 3rd, 2012 at 10:17 am

The first full-length trailer for The Expendables 2 has gone online.  In addition to lots and lots of gunfire and explosions, there are some truly cringe-worthy moments like Jason Statham dressed as a monk saying “I now pronounce you man and knife,” or when Arnold Schwarzenegger says “I’m back.”  The plot also doesn’t make much sense.  Jean Claude Van Damme‘s villain needs plutonium, which seems like a useless weapon when you can simply roundhouse kick the world to death.

Hit the jump to watch the trailer.  The film also stars Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Yu Nan, Terry Crews, Randy Couture, Liam Hemsworth, Chuck Norris, and Bruce Willis.  The Expendables 2 opens on August 17th.

New Trailer for EXPENDABLES 2 Trailer Featuring Terry Crews, Explosions, Gunfire and Shouting

by Dave Trumbore    Posted: May 2nd, 2012 at 7:26 am

There’s nothing like waking up to explosions, gunfire and Terry Crews screaming in your face.  The terrifying and hilarious Crews is here to shout at your soul until he crushes you into submission and forces you to watch this trailer for the trailer (newer than this trailer) for The Expendables 2.  At least he isn’t taking this too seriously.  The Expendables 2, starring Crews, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Chuck Norris, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Liam Hemsworth opens August 17th.  You can see them all in their mercenary finery on these awesome posters before you hit the jump to check out the trailer trailer.

THE EXPENDABLES: DIRECTOR’S CUT Blu-ray Review

by Scott Wampler    Posted: December 26th, 2011 at 6:00 am

When The Expendables dropped last year, many felt that—while Sylvester Stallone’s heart was in the right placed—the film failed to live up to expectations (there’s also a strong, vocal minority that love the film, and we should all just go ahead and assume now that they’re going to take issue with this statement).  Surprisingly enough, one of these people seems to be…Sylvester Stallone, who introduces the new Director’s Cut of The Expendables by saying, “I liked the theatrical version, but I love this (version)”.  Have improvements been made?  Is the film really and truly better?  And how can one tell, if one immediately forgot the first film almost as soon as they’d seen it?  Find out in my review of The Expendables: Director’s Cut, after the jump.

First Trailer and Official Synopsis for THE EXPENDABLES 2, Plus New Promo Poster

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: December 14th, 2011 at 4:27 pm

Lionsgate has released the first trailer for The Expendables 2, directed by Simon West (The Mechanic).  It’s a teaser that doesn’t get into plot, or even showcase any major action.  At this early stage, with over 9 months to go until the August 17 release, the film is selling itself entirely on the reputation of the cast: Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Chuck Norris, Terry Crews, Randy Couture, Liam Hemsworth, Jean Claude Van Damme, Bruce Willis, and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

If you are interested in the plot, the studio also unveiled the first official synopsis for The Expendables 2 along with a new promo poster.  See it all after the jump.

THE EXPENDABLES Blu-ray Review

by Andre Dellamorte    Posted: December 1st, 2010 at 6:01 am

Sylvester Stallone has had one of the strangest careers in cinema history. He’s had hit films for the last four decades. But he’s also had very public failures. The ups and downs are intense, as he made his way through being an action star to doing bad comedy to going direct to video, to his current resurgence (which came ten years after he tried to reinvent himself in Copland). Basically, he’s happy to coast and do garbage like Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot if the money’s good. But between Rambo and Rocky Balboa, Stallone was one the comeback trail, and with The Expendables, Stallone had his biggest hit in ages. By getting together such action stalwarts as Bruce Willis, Mickey Rourke, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dolph Lungren, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Eric Roberts, and Terry Crews, he had a multi-generational, multi-ethnic man on a mission movie. My review of The Expendables on Blu-ray follows after the jump.

THE EXPENDABLES Review

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: August 12th, 2010 at 6:30 pm

For a film that trades fantastical B-movie fun for deadly seriousness, The Expendables needs a reality check.  It thinks that the actors have on-screen chemistry.  They don’t.  It thinks that the script has plenty of witty banter.  It doesn’t.  It thinks that there’s thought-provoking pathos in the story.  There isn’t.  At best, The Expendables is misguided and at worst, it’s an over-confident mess that fumbles completely except for a few action beats.

With Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables getting released August 13, Lionsgate has sent over 3 clips from the action flick that stars Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Terry Crews, Mickey Rourke, ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Bruce Willis, and Arnold Schwarzenegger.  Hit the jump to check them out:

THE EXPENDABLES “Call to Arms” Trailer

by Laura Kelley    Posted: July 13th, 2010 at 7:45 pm

The Expendables latest trailer came out a few days ago so we’re a bit late posting this, but we pretty much had to because it’s amazing.  It will remind you why it is your duty as an action fan to see this movie.  This newest trailer is a call to arms for men to take back the box office in the name of “the only men they’re allowed to love.”  The Expendables, which was directed and co-written by star Sylvester Stallone, is opening on August 13^th against the Julia Roberts drama Eat, Pray, Love, and like the trailer says, “if this movie loses to Eat, Pray, Love, you don’t deserve to be a man.”  I’m not even a man, and I almost feel like I won’t even deserve to live if I don’t see this movie.

THE EXPENDABLES Behind the Scenes “Hostages” Featurette

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: July 8th, 2010 at 4:36 pm

Lionsgate has released a new Behind the Scenes Featurette on the making of The Expendables.  The featurette is the first in a five-part series, with a new one premiering every Thursday from now till release.

This first one focuses on filming a hostage scene and the video has interviews with a lot of the crew and even Harry Knowles from AICN on set while they were filming.  What’s well done about the 4 minute clip is the way it mixes in behind the scenes footage with final movie footage (including a shot with a lot of blood!).  If you’re looking forward to The Expendables, this clip is only going to get you more excited.  Hit the jump to check it out.

2nd Trailer for THE EXPENDABLES Starring Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, and Jet Li – UPDATED with New Poster

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: June 3rd, 2010 at 11:13 pm

The new trailer for Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables has come online and it’s disappointing for two reasons.  First, it’s trying to trick people that Schwarzenegger and Willis are major characters in the film.  They’re not.  They’re cameos.  But they’re given billing above Jason Statham, Jet Li, and the rest of the cast who are in the entire movie.  I understand that the studio needs names to sell its pictures, but if this isn’t a bait-and-switch, then I don’t know what is.

Also, it plays like a teaser and shows almost no footage.  That’s bizarre seeing as the last trailer (which was all over the place) showed plenty of stuff from the film.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer.  The Expendables hits theaters on August 13th. [There's also a new poster for the film that you can check out after the jump.  It's as bland as the trailer, but at least it doesn't include Schwarzenegger's name].

THE EXPENDABLES Sneak Peek Plus New Images

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: May 28th, 2010 at 3:51 pm

Lionsgate has released a few new images and a “sneak peek” from Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables.   Starring almost every action star on the planet, The Expendables gets released August 13 and I can’t wait.  I heard they did a test screening not too long ago here in Los Angeles that went over huge.  Apparently people were screaming in the theater and having a blast while watching it.  Based on the first trailer and the new sneak peek…I believe it.  Hit the jump to take a look:

THE EXPENDABLES Trailer

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: March 31st, 2010 at 10:21 am

The trailer for Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables has come online and it’s not good.  It spoils the Schwarzenegger cameo (we knew he was in the film, but they didn’t have to show us his scene), every attempt it makes at humor falls flat, the part where it tries for soulful reflection is where the movie looks funny, and I think the picture has become clear that this is what happens when you make a movie based solely on servicing the fans of B-action pictures.  Oh, and when they do all the actors’ last names at the end of the trailer they leave out Terry Crews.  No one leaves out President Camacho.  Also, Stallone looks like hell and should really lay off the human growth hormone.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer and the official synopsis.  The Expendables hits theaters on August 13th.
