First look at Stallone’s Expendables

By now everyone knows about the heavy-fisted, hard-actor carrying title, The Expendables, Stallone’s reboot of 80’s action lore and used up action stars (Kurt Russel and Van Damme have turned down the script). Let’s hear what Stallone says about it:

“It’s a 1980s movie with today’s technology,” Stallone told Collider. “But in those days, the female leading character was a helpless girl, waiting to be rescued by the hero. Now we have a very strong female character that evolved to this form while I was writing the script. But except for this, yes, it’s a 1980s movie.”

Terminator 4 gets a soft rating

Way to fuck it up. Terminator 4 (Salvation) has gotten the dreaded-for-film-fans rating of PG-13 in order to cash in on the Dark Knight’s success of making a dark actioner with teen friendly viewing. Well, there goes my hopes for this one.
