I like the first & lastr Rambos a lot. First blood part 2 is chilidhs USA war propaganda. And 3 is alright.. but drags on. I Could see Last Blood being a decent film.

OMG...I STILL remember that last one, and I haven't watched that in like 4 years

That movie was hardcore as shit lol

Right? those war scenes were pretty brutal.

Here we go again...

It better be better than "The Expendables 3". Well, let's face it - it would be impossible to not be better than "The Expendables 3".

I hope it maintains the good things of part IV (graphic-REALISTIC-violence and a serious tone) while also getting rid of its worst aspects (short running time and BAD acting by the secondary roles)

wait wait WAAAAAAAIT Rocky VII WTF???

though I admit that the idea of training Apollo's grandson sounds GENIUS; this could be an improved Rocky V...

Stallone, anyway, has balls of steel...the shitstorm of ridicule is coming...I mean, Rocky VII and Rambo V...guy doesn't give up...

rambo.. last blood

john rambo yet again defeats the bad guys just before he reaches menopause

There's no way there can be a new Rocky Rocky Balboa was a perfect ending. They made fun of him for making a 6th rocky. And then it got some really good reviews. He needs to leave rocky alone

Cobra is a painful crap movie to watch, because of many reasons...

it exactly marks the point where Stallone just GAVE UP any ambition at serious/meaty/worthy cinema, concentrating instead on BS-low IQ action movies and AWFUL, misguided comedies, at least until Cop Land (sadly, a commercial failure); then, you can jump from Cop Land to Rocky VI...

Worthy Sly:

-Rocky

-Rocky II

-First Blood

-Rocky III

-Cliffhanger (not great, but a semi-classic of its genre, mainly because of the strong cast and perfectly crafted script: "Die Hard on the Rocky Mountains")

-Cop Land

-Rocky VI

-Expendables II (AWESOME hardcore action-tough guys comedy hybrid)

wow. he is truly dedicated to his art huh

Cobra is good in a cheesy way. But it was the starting point of bad late 80's flicks. Although i do like tango & Cash a bit. After Cobra was Over The Top & Lock Up then Oliver and stop, or my mom will shoot. Yikes

86-92 was the "death" of Stallone, after that there were The Two Comebacks (1993-97, and 2006-...)

Cobra is awful hands down; Over the Top wow didnt even remember that one...has to be one the WORST movies ever, or at least the worst arm wresting movie ever (not that there are many to begin with...), Rambo III as you said is too long and like in part II there's too much cheesy action-dialogue to make things believable (and in terms of geopolitics, it's dated as hell); Tango & Cash has some awesome dialogue but the script was pants... Lock Up has written TRYING TOO HARD all over the map...

and for the record, NONE of Sly's comedies have amused nor entertained me...

I consider "Rocky III" as one of the three or four greatest movies ever made. The last time I watched it, I actually went straight to the gym the moment it was over and set a new personal bench press record. What a great movie! I used the last bout with Clubber Lang in a motivational presentation I give.

Also, I agree with you on "The Expendables II". That movie was awesome!

All I know is that Dwayne "The Rock " Johnson needs to step his game up as Hollywood action hero because Stallone is NOT ready to pass the torch at all!

I LIKED 'Lock Up'!

The last Rambo did deliver what was promised. It had the body count of an 80's acton movie but was very realistic. I'm sure there must have been squeamish people walking out and\or feeling sick. THAT is what military weaponry does to the human body. Secondary characters\actors were shit though, 'They even killed the dogs!' how the hell do you screw up evoking emotion in a Western Audience with dead dogs? Go back and watch Dances with Wolves, that's how you kill a dog on screen.

I wonder if Sly will ever get around to directing that Edgar Allen Poe film he's been mentioning for YEARS.

Well, I would be inclined to believe that Stallone would willingly pass the torch if there were actors in the action genre willing to work as hard as he did in his heyday. I love The Rock but he doesn't have the pull nor power to even match Stallone on the big screen....but he could if he wanted to. Hell I thought it was a in Diesel who was going to take that action hero crown but 10+ years later he keeps doing the same ole boring roles over and over again. I'm an action movie junkie and would love to see someone new takeover and continue what Stallone, Willis, Arnold and others have built up in the genre but have yet to see it happen. I would say the only one to come very close is Jason Statham.

I'm also surprise that Hugh Jackman hasn't done more action roles, apart from the X-Men & X-men spin-off film series of course.

Not to go too far off-topic, but I'm also disappointed with the lack of black action film heroes at the moment. We have yet to see anyone within today's generation to fill in the shoes of Fred Williamson, Jim Brown, or Richard Roundtree.

Snipes was doing his thing until he got snipped.

Wesley Snipes definitely had his moment as an action film hero in Passager 57, Rising Sun, & Blade part 1 & 2.

And then TPTB in Hollywood had to ruin every damn thing for Wesley by getting too involved with Blade Trinity, a film that I refuse to see even this very day because before the film's debut, I knew the whole story how they took creative control duties away from Wesley on purpose to make room for potential spin-off films series for his co-stars (which were never made anyhow after the fact!). And of course, Wesley's legal problems with the IRS due to bad advices given to him by his then-accountant also mess his career up quite a bit.

I like Wesley Snipes a lot as an actor, but the truth is that he was not an innocent bystander in his tax situation. Not only did he not file his tax returns, but he thumbed his nose at the IRS and held seminars where he urged his employees to set up so-called "pure trusts" and quit paying taxes:

Instead of paying Uncle Sam like the rest of us, Snipes mailed long treatises to the government, arguing the IRS was powerless to collect taxes from him. He declared himself to be a “nonresident alien” who didn’t owe taxes. He accused the IRS of committing fraud, extortion and identity theft against him. He encouraged employees of his to likewise stop paying taxes and held a seminar at his home to convince others to use pure trusts and similar methods to dodge tax obligations.

He actually got off light. Although his sentence for three misdemeanor convictions sounds harsh, he probably should have been convicted of felony tax evasion. His co-defendants were, but Snipes was able to avoid that.

And you know why? Because Wesley's then-accountants were far more at fault for given him bad advice, plain and simple.
