Default The Expendables

This will probably the most badass action movie ever made. Picture if you will most of the action stars past and present coming together to make a movie. It's not going to have much of a story, nor will it win any oscars...as a matter of act, I think it's going to be filled with horrible one liners, but who cares!? I will be lined up to see this movie on opening day. Here's the list of actors and cameo appearances

Sylvester Stallone
Jason Statham
Jet Li
Dolph Lundgren
Randy Couture
Terry Crews
Eric Roberts
Steve Austin
Mickey Rourke
with Bruce Willis
and Arnold Schwarzenegger

That's right. The only people missing on that list is Chuck Norris, Kurt Russell, and Jean Claude Van Damme.

Vin Diesel and the Rock probably want close to $20mil a picture.

Doubt he'd leave his HK productions anytime soon. Besides, he was never really the shoot em up type. Chow Yun Fat would probably be more appropriate choice for this movie.

Kurt Russle, Steven Seagal, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Wesley Snipes all originally had roles or were offered roles.

How is Arnold Schwarzanegger in this movie? Isn't he busy with the whole "Governor of California" thing?

Even when his state is falling apart all around him, he still has time to kick motion picture ass.

I believe that he has a cameo as the governor, haha.

As long as this movie is R-rated, it will be one big ball of PURE WIN.

The "slow motion run from explosion" scene is awesome, and not unexpected. I hope there's at least five of those in the movie.

From what I understand, now it's neither. He felt his original role was actually too big and his schedule would conflict. He is still in the movie, but with a much smaller part.
