I dunno, Expendables kind of failed to capture the 80s machismo that would have made it a really great movie. It was still pretty good, but eh, I dunno if I'm that excited to see another one coming.

Holy shit. LUNDGREN VS JCVD. FIGHT OF THE CENTURY.

Am I the only one exhausted with having thirty and early fourty-somethings using their new found influence over popular culture to constantly beat me over the head with "YOU KNOW WHAT WAS AWESOME? THE '80S. CAN YOU NAME A BETTER MOVIE THAT HAS EVER BEEN MADE THAN GHOSTBUSTERS? YOU CAN'T! UNLESS YOU SAID BAAACK TOOO THEEE FUUUUTUUUUREEEE!!!!"

And then all of the other thirty and early fourty-somethings go "aha I knew it!" and take that as their cue to jack off all over the media, and I, the twenty-something, just have to sit through it and listen to people acting like Weird Science wasn't balls.

Jagos · 10-24-2011, 05:32 PM

But then, wasn't the 90s and early millenium a throwback to the 70s?

The Expendables was pretty neat, but I didn't feel it was over-the-top enough.

You like Heman and theMasters of the Universe right though? And Rocky 4?
Those other movies are terrible because they don't star Dolph Lundgren? That's your point right?

Holy shit JCVD. Boxing vs Kick Boxing. Did anyone ever see JCVD's return to K1? Because he totally wrecked some poor guy. It was painful to watch.

CHUCK NORRIS IS IN THIS MOVIE TOO!? Too. Much. AAAGH

Expendables was somehow beyond atrocious, but Stallone can reload really fast which was cool.

On a bright note, this lowers my expectations for a sequel down near "The Pleasures of Licking Slime Molds," which means I might come out enjoying it if it is half-competent!

Masters of the Universe is objectively the best movie ever made.
