Who will be in The Expendables 2?


From worstpreviews, As soon as "The Expendables" became a huge success, Sylvester Stallone immediately announced a sequel and stated that he will bring back some of the original cast and will make sure to get other big action stars.

We've already heard that Stallone has had conversations with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jean-Claude Van Damme regarding taking part in "The Expendables 2." But the always-credible The Sun is now reporting that Stallone has also reached out to Mr. T, Hulk Hogan and Carl Weathers.

According to the paper, he is also looking to get Vin Diesel and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson on board. The script is currently being worked on and everyone is rushing to get the sequel into production. Stay tuned

Has anyone seen this yet?

I haven't, but I'm curious.

Dwayne Johnson always makes me groan, though. I don't know if I really mind him on screen (because I've never seen him on screen), but I always think "is this really our next generation of action heroes?" More Jason Statham!

i have -- it's everything you think it's going to be.

IF YOU WANT TO GO IN KNOWING NOTHING ABOUT THE CONTENT OF THE MOVIE, STOP READING.

here's my thing. everything you're hoping is going to be awesome is awesome. the fight scenes are pretty well choreographed. you can see everything happen, but it's all happening so fast, it's hard to take everything in a lot of the time, but what you do see is all good.

my favorite fight scene moment involves jet li and jason statham taking down a baddie together.

also, mickey rourke's role is only a speaking part -- he's not in any of the fight scenes. he does however deliver a monologue in the middle of the flick and it is, hands down, the best bit of acting the movie has to offer.

as you can imagine, the dialogue is a little tired and the jokes don't really pop at all. somehow though, this isn't in any way a drag on the movie. they're mercenaries, not a team of Al Frankens -- of course their jokes are going to be lame. nothing in the dialogue felt ungenuine.
