What's Sandra's boggle? Will she be blowing guys (away) with Sly again?!?
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I'm an unapologetic fan of DEMOLITION MAN. It's a movie that has aged extremely well, that's for sure, but even back in the day I loved the hell out of it. One of the driving forces behind my enjoyment of that film was the chemistry between Sandra Bullock and Sylvester Stallone, so you can imagine my (happy) surprise to hear a rumor floated by JoBlo that Bullock might be reteaming with Sly for his awesome sounding ensemble action flick THE EXPENDABLES.
They hear she's up for the role of a government agent who is partnered with Forest Whitaker in tracking down the hired guns (Sly, Jason Statham, Jet Li and Dolph Lundgren) on a mission to take down a dictator. They say the talks are happening, but it's not a done deal yet.
Next year's going to be a great one for ensemble action. Both this film and Tarantino's INGLORIOUS BASTERDS get my juices flowing pretty hard and heavy. What do you folks think of this possible casting addition?

Yeah I enjoyed Demolition Man too back in the day, they need to try and get Wesley Snipes in this film as well. Plus Arnie to play President
-
I know it. Vern knows it.And Vern has done time, so you better fucking agree with us or else he'll fuck you up.
-
-but from the sound of her role it doesn't sound like they'd have a lot of screen time together. All in all though...this movie is sounding ridiculously awesome!

Hope you all get a SPYDER II GX LASER in your stockings this year. I shall meet you in London's Victoria Park on Boxing Day for a SPYDER II GX LASER lightsabre battle.

If sly can make Expendables half as good as the last Rambo flick
by leafy mcplantsalot
... it'll be a pretty terrible movie. just saying
-
Guess this is going to come out a year after Inglorious Basterds. Or maybe along Inglorious Basterds Vol 2 (oh you KNOW it's gonna happen)
-
...Action piece. It's barely even an action movie. It's mostly Kill Bill with a mousy french jewish girl and some cameos from some d list celebrities and Brad Pitt. At least Sly has some C and B's to go with his D's.
-
They could not even make the goddamn joke you are quoting in the headline of this article in THE EXPENDABLES because then it would be rated R for "language"! This movie is fucked. Sly should at least film it as an R so we can get a real unrated version on DVD as opposed to the usual pseudo-unrated piece of shit that's just the movie with some of the deleted scenes cut back in.
-
She used to be good in a couple af B Grade action flicks, but all she's done since are a bunch of insipid romantic comedies and awful thrillers. Re-teaming with Stallone could be a great career move.

I thought this was going to be about Demolition Man 2.
by i hope you die
I fucking love Demolition Man. This is how I imagine a sequel. San Angeles is back to its old PC ways, Sly and Bullock are in retirement living in a house full of 20th century memorabilia having real sex. Then somebody clones Wesley Snipes and Sly and Bullock are the only ones up to the job and have to come out of retirement. Then Snipes gets into the cloning facility and makes a whole army of Wesleys. Hilarity ensues. It would be called "Demolition Man Too" because Sly and Bullock have a son in the police force played by Shia LeBouf. YOU KNOW YOU WANT THIS.

Floate by Joblo? Do you guys have ANY of your own news these days or do you just post shit other sites post.

I too thought it was for Demolition Man 2
by i_am_not_the_droid_you_are_looking_for
That would complete the Sly resurrection. It could also resurrect the careers of Bullock, Snipes and Denis Leary. And the dude who directed it, who's career was killed by that Alicia Silverston bomb.Bring back Snipes' thawed head on a robot body!DO NOT resurrect the career of Rob Schneider in the process.
-
Jeez. Is there ANYONE associated with Demolition Man still successful?
-
But I am 20 minutes my first viewing of demolition man when I read this. spooky! It seem like a fun movie too, so i hope the rest of it is good. This new movie has an interesting cast now. I'll look forward to it.
-
Joel Silver, the producer is still successful... well... if you like his films that is. I'm the only person i know Australia that saw Speed Racer and liked it...
-
makes it seems like Stallone was blowing dudes as well. was there a scene in Demolition Man i'm blocking from my mind?
-
Dennis Leary. He'd have to get a bigger part. But damn, Snipes was the BOMB in Demoliton Man. And I THINK that was the first time I ever saw Bullock. Thought she was hot as hell at the time.
-
. . . that I had to use the three sea shells! I heart me some Demolition Man, not so crazy about Statham or Li. But if you give me Ivan Drago with this group, I expect this to be sheer geeky joy.
-
STILL hot even in her early 40's. Damn...
-
Hope we get just one bare shot of it before she ages too far. Her in those spandex was some SERIOUS booty. Sly not so much.
-
In other words, fuck Tarantino and his lame movie. THE EXPENDABLES will fuck the basturds eye sockets in 09. Nuff said, excelsior, etc.
-
That film is shaping up to be what I thought for all these years what "Inglorious Bastards" would be. What "The Expendibles" needs though is more badassery on the squad. And not non-actors like Randy Couture. Sly needs to work his relationships and get some more big screen talent in there (Keith David, Kurt Russell, Carl Weathers, etc.). To use a Vern-ism, this film should simply be called:

OH AN BULLOCK'S CASTING IS GREAT. EVERYTHING IS GREAT SO FAR.
by bringingsexyback
Sly is hitting this out of th park without even rolling the cameras yet. How often does that happen? Not often!!!
-
...and Arnold Schwarzenegger as President John Matrix.
-
Dec 24, 2008 8:31:37 AM CST
WILL THIS MOVIE BE A HUMAN FLESH GRINDER AND MINCER LIKE RAMBO?
by bringingsexyback
As if I had to ask. Sly, you go dawg.
-
...thinking of including John Matrix makes me believe that Stallone should make sure his script is doctored up a bit by Steven deSouza and Shane Black, just to give it a little more sharpening before the kill.
-
in the same way I loooove Hudson Hawk. They just work. I should probably sit down and do a double-feature of them some day.
This film project is just sounding more and more fun every time I read about it. We just have to make sure that the novelty of it all doesn't wear us out before the film comes out. Anybody remember "Snakes on a Plane?" -
But it did correctly predict Schwarzenegger's political career.
-
..back on this site so we can pick his brain about this flik. But so far so good. I can't wait, this is definately my type of movie. Also we need some uncredited cameos. AND ITS GOTTA BE FUCKING R-RATED.
-
Jost wundering
-
but Expendables is shaping up to what Inglorious Basterds shouldve been. I agree to get Kurt Russell in there too

Have people seen Inglorious Basterds?
by i_am_not_the_droid_you_are_looking_for
Because there are a lot of you saying its shit.
-
More names to consider:
James Woods, Max Von Sydow, F. Murray Abraham, Lance Henriksen, Sean Connery, 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper, Michael Douglas, Rutger Hauer, Powers Boothe.

As someone who just saw DEMOLITION MAN again last week for the f
by james westfall
I will meet this news with a resounding "Oh Hellz Yeah!" She and Stallone really did work well together in that and my GOD she was terminally cute.
-
So the movie must be shitty.
-
Sly now looks like a cancerous tumor
-
Maybe, but not necessarly, Ice-T. And John C. McGinley. Yes, since Scrubs he is less threatening and more mainstream, but he should be in it. He did several B-Actionmovies!
-
you talk about the amazing chemistry between these two, and yet the plot synopsis suggests that they're going to have little to no shared screentime at all.
So toss out the whole ZOMG IS THIS DEMOLITI2N M2N? -
I NEED to know what the deal was with those shells. Easily the most memorable thing about Demo Man, except maybe the Taco Bell shit. If I never get an explanation for those shells, I'm just gonna lose it. Demolition Man 2: Secret of the Poop-Cleaning Shells.
-
Typical of so many AICNers - putting down "Inglorious Bastards" without having seen one frame of film. Assholes, every one of them!
-
But is Sly playing John Rambo? I'll see it anyway, but that would be fun. And he did say that if he did Rambo 5 it would be in a "different genre."
-
Alright sly just 4 to go. If you can call Bruce and Arnold to at least make cameos all you need is to scrounge up 10 grand for Van Damme and Segal to split and you will officially have the greatest cast in the history of time! I just hope when that amount of awesome comes together it doesnt open a black hole that swallows the earth!
-
Hard cock. That's what this 'rumour' gives me. Sly, Statham, Lundgren, Li, FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! Schwarzenegger to play the President and I will quit my job to prepare for the release of this fucking-big-gun-fest.
-
Hollywood totally dismisses this movie and releases some PG-13 nancy boy action movie the same weekend so The Expendables can kick them in the balls and tell them how to do it 80's style!
-
Ok we have Sly and Dolph, people have mentioned Arnold, aren't we forgetting someone people? VAN DAMN!!!! You cant have Dolph and Sly with out him!:P still this movie should be fun, especially if its rated RRUH!!
-
Although if I had to pick one I am leaning towards this one a little more.
-
His stuff has been so much better than any of his contemporaries lately. Guess that shows that an educated man can still get it done.
-
So, Balboa and Drago are teaming up in this one? JOYGASM!!!
-
I WILL IT SO! it would be so kick ass and even if it BOMBED and was TERRIBLE... how much fun would we have cutting it down? the sheer potential!
-
I have been excited about this movie just thinking about Sly and Dolph being 80's action gods doing a movie together and somehow TOTALLY forgot Dolph's breakout role was pounding the bejeezus outta Rocky in Rocky IV! Balboa and Drago fighting together!!! My already fever-pitch excitement just increased 100 fold with this revelation!
-
and arnold. this should be the biggest mash up movie ever! i want to see jcvd kick stevie boys ass!
-
roy batty/john ryder style!
-
OMG what an awesome cast list!
-
on Sandra Bullock. I know that's not really a man crush, but I thought I would mock the talk-backers who occasionally confess a man crush for some male actor. So consider yourself mocked, and uh, yeah, Merry Christmas.
-
is Sandra Bullock in a black, skin tight, future cop outfit. Fuck that girl had an Ass made for lovin. Too bad it has now probably been routed out by that used up his 15 minutes in 10, white trash, Riverside county bumpkin fuck Jesse James and his pals.
-
loved that new title. lolworthy.
"Unapologetically Violent Ass-Kicking Film With Lots of Hoary One-Liners That Still Work, Delivered By People With a Storied History of Being Able To Do These Things Well" -
AND I STILL WANNA BANG SANDRA!
TOGETHER THEY ARE ARE AWESOME SO I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS... SANDRA SHOULD ALSO DO A SPEED 3 WITH Keanu Reeves! -
pretend Cruise Control never happened. Get Sandra and Keanu back together for another "pop quiz" that embiggens me in the theater.
-
He sucks in Hollywood movies.
-
As long as I don't see her falling over in the trailer.
