Now That THE EXPENDABLES Is Filming...Here Come The Pics!!
Merrick here...
Sly brought THE EXPENDABLES before cameras this week, and pics are coming from the location shoot.
Click the images to follow them to their respective sources.


In all probability, there are quite a few more running around the web by now. If you find 'em, tell the world via the Talkbacks below!

looks like Weird Al's muscle suit in UHF.
-
I would sex that craggy old goatman.
-
And does a great job
-
can't wait, this could be the greatest action movie ever made
-
I'm sure one of you gearheads will know.
-
but I'm REALLY looking forward to this :D
-
The Brit article those photo's came from or are related too was about how fit Stallone is at 62. Well if I had his money I could afford the good steroids and plastic surgery too.
Anyway the funniest part was them talking about Stallone doing some stunts like jumping in the water. I believe one of the lines was Stallone can jump in the water with the best of them.
I guess his penis enhancement surgery never made the grade with Bridgitte. -
My eyes! My eyes!
-
Its an anti-static strap. Sly was worried he might short his mo-bo. Everyone knows: saving the world is shockingly hard.hahahaha
-
That's not steriods, that's hard work. I can't wait to see this. If the action scenes are anything like the last Rambo, count me in.
-
Needs a tan.
-
The first pic with him running all intense and with machismo but look at his pinky finger holding the gun! haha
-
Sly came out and said he used steroids to get into shape for the latest Rambo outing.
-
Sly's trying to be a true gentleman. Just as you would extend your pinky sipping tea, so goes Sly with a 1911.
-
or maybe I don't
-
There were *4* sentences!!!
-
Way to go Mr. Stallone! You are going to have the most awaited action film in 2010 with THE EXPENDABLES! You make Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson look like a bunch of pussy ass mother fuckers. You are a ripped tank ready to show the world once again there is NO ONE that matches you in the action genre right now. Not to knock your pal Jason Statham, but you even make him look like a small little man next to you. THE EXPENDABLES is going to be CON AIR times 10 in macho shit and box-office grosses. Once again Mr. Stallone, I must stress that you "must" give ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER some decent screen time scattered throughout the film. Even if Arnie shoots for 2 days, why not make the most of it and even if it's 5-10 minutes of screen time, scatter his scenes all over the film so he shows up here and there so his presence is felt. Make Schwarzenegger's role iconic with guns, bad ass lines and Arnie looking as pumped as you. STALLONE + SCHWARZENEGGER is what will sell THE EXPENDABLES all over the worldwide box-office.
-
this film needs a secret cameo by Chuck Norris or Darryl Strawberry
-
..a dumpster?..whats up with all that garbage in the running pic? Sly looks cool..the man knows what hes doin'..
-
That is the only explanation for this.How in blue blazes did he go from being that guy off Driven and D-Tox and Spy Kids 3D to being the guy who brought us Rocky Balboa and Rambo and is about to bring us what will surely be THE action film of 2010, if not the entire noughties?Plus, that grizzly old bastard is in better shape than most guys half his age!The only rational conclusion you can come to is that he has done a deal with the devil. And if the hellhounds are coming for him, please let them get him after he's done with The Expendables.
-
I want it.
-
It's called 'roids.
-
They're called ladies. Go talk to one.
-
THIS FILM IS GONNA OWN!

Damn, I thought in the first photo we see Ralph Möller!
by derlanghaarige
I was scared for a second!
-
I hope the action's proper old school, with no CG or shaky cam or strobe editing.
-
Driven, and Spy Kids 3D, followed later by the badassery which was Rambo and Rocky Balboa, the great Sly has learned his lesson, and is going to absolutely rock our world.
-
help but think that if someone else made that movie today they would have CGId the ribs breaking in the meat locker. It is too hard for Hollywood to come up with good screenplays and filming today without using CGI. Look at Charlton Heston in Ben-Hur. Today they would have CGId the whole chariot race. Chuck actually learned to drive a chariot, proving that he's a real man, and most action actors today are pale immitations.
-
Please don't use CGI in this movie and ruin it! CGI does not "enhance the storytelling" it's just a terrible tool that film makers use when they are lazy. CGI will forever look like shit. I loved Rambo but it was obvious CGI was used. Please please please! NO CGI! I haven't seen a good old school action film with no CGI in...forever.
-
I read in many placed he used HGH, which is not the same as Steroids. Yes, they are considered "performance enhancing drugs" and are generally frowned upon in the sports world, but HGH is legal to purchase, so Sly was within his rights.
-
I want dick veins too!
-
As far as I know, none was used in Rambo. And that was pure hardcore actioning from just himself. With the cast he's got, and the massive balls each actor possesses, I doubt they would tolerate being CGI'd.
ABking is partly right - not only will The Expendables own 2010, it will own the decade and the genre for time immemorial. The only thing greater will be Christian Bale's movies. -
and it was used to good effect!!!
-
They're supercolorful and his artwork is usually very colorful. Anywho this is the stuff that rolls around in my head. I'm also wondering why most of these shots are paparazzi shots. Does the publicist lady not have a camera? I was expecting stuff like this in the tweets but so far it's been verbal tidbits. At least a photo to go with the interviews and stuff. Pretty please. :D
-
TRUE LIES was great FUN in the SUMMER of 1994! THE EXPENDABLES must be a HUGE FUN ACTION SPECTACLE for it to own! And it will;)
-
While I seriously hope that The Expandables will be as old school as possible, people should stop blaming CGI for everything. Yes, when it's done wrong, it can ruin a scene or even a whole movie (But this applies to everything, from acting, over cinematography to stuntwork and "handmade" special effects), but when it's done right, you don't even notice it! That's the reason why CGI has such a bad reputation: People don't notice the good CGI work so they think there never was some!
Anyway, please Sly, give us the old school action movie that you promised us! -
Jet: "You CGI me, I kick your throat."
Sly: "Forget I asked." -
and all the other cast members of The Expendables....even Charisma Carpenter.
-
with action and pain!!!!
-
What are you smoking ABking?
-
That's all I'm saying! Bring on the Diesel Swede and kick some fuckin ass!
-
Sly please make this the movie tagline
-
Teehee rhymes
-
TRUE LIES is my #10 all-time favorite movie. I don't know if we should have such high expectations. I'm going to stay guardedly psyched.
-
I'm pretty sure there were some cgi touch ups to the scene where Rambo cuts the general MOSTLY in half near the end. Also, the mushroom cloud explosion I'm almost positive had some elements to it. It's been awhile. I might have to have a beer and watch Rambo again after graduation... yeah... that would be nice. Oh right! Homework! Later!
-
I love it!
-
I'm pretty sure the bomb scene was CGI. Other than that I don't think there was anything, and if there was it was not noticeable. Hopefully the Expendables does things the same way.
-
I don't really care what Sly is on, but he looks fucking fantastic.
-
Any tips? Any tips? Gimme that g**damn map!

Sly, it's a gun, not a cup of tea. You don't have to hold it so
by thekeenguy
-
The extended pinky in the first picture made me laugh. I love everything about this except Stone Cold. I hope his scenes get cut and don't even make it to the DVD / BluRay. My only hope is he's rarely credited when The Expendables is mentioned. Also, anyone remember The Expendables books? Does this have any inspiration from that?
-
...If you look closely you'll see his hands are too big for the grip, there's no room for his goddamned Pinky!
-
How's that for a goddamned Tagline?!
-
Especially at the end.
-
Christ in fact I hope it's NC-17

... now I never have to grow old.But only if it's not the kind of thing that needs to be extracted from newborn babies or something...
-
What does Sly think he's doing, drinking a cup of tea?
-
I always thought it was cool to extend ones pinkie when drinking, shooting etc. Sorta elegant. I always did it when shooting off my BB Gun's air blast. GODDAMN This movie is going to kick all the asses in the world.
-
I stated in my headline "only a tiny bit" of CGI was used in RAMBO. READ BEFORE TYPING!!! And to CherryValance, TRUE LIES is one of the GREATEST ACTION FILMS EVER...I expect the same from THE EXPENDABLES. Sly is up there with CAMERON and SPIELBERG. Although BAY is good at action, that HACK can learn a lesson or two from SLY!
-
Just putting out the love for Cliffhanger too. Great action movie.
I still cry when pop Walton gets shot :-( -
which is goddam amazing. Its just his face is beginning to look like a Mort Drucker Mad magazine cariacture. Come to think of it, it has for years now.
-
People, THE EXPENDABLES is a hard PG-13 movie in the vein of CASINO ROYAL hard or the JASON BOURNE series, so get the fuck over it already. Once you've let that in, then only can you know what I know...THE EXPENDABLES is going to fuck our eyeballs out:) I won't start that up again LOL ABking has spoken so move on from the PG-13 bullshit talk!
-
Who would have thought that sly can make better enjoyable sequel movies than lucas or speilberg. can't wait for this, go sly!!
-
There's a video goin around of Sylvester running on a pier after a plane..There's also one on TMZ where he wipes out running on said pier. I can't wait to see this!!!
-
About this AND T4....think about the kick ass action films from years ago...The Dirty Dozen, Where Eagles Dare, hell, the Indiana Jones series, the Bonds, the Bournes..Yes all the Rambos were R rated, but maybe thats not the direction Stallone wants to go in. We definately know he can deliver a hard R. Action films DID exist before the ratings system.
-
Hi publicist lady here - I don't walk around with a camera. In fact my job is to keep the p'razzi off the set. So far not a good job on my part but if you saw where we were shootingyou woud understnad why. We are going to release soe exclusive shots soon but internet is slow and out photog, photojournalist Karen Ballard is busily working on the edits. I promise you won't be disappointed. Also Sly will be answering some of your qestions via twitter (yes I am a twit twat twig and yes he actually does it himself) so stay tuned.
-
Cliffhanger is ok, but John Lithgow is one of the best movie villains ever in it. Even as a kid, I knew he was eventually going to kill his female lieutenant. And it was so awesome when he did.
-
you just wait until some other UK or US website steal those to link
-
I hope this is a late April Fools cuz I ain't never heard nothing about PG-13 for this.
The cock veins alone are NC-17!!!!!! -
1) Please tell me this is not gonna be PG-13
2) Can you post pics of yourself, preferably in swimwear? -
Have you ever met Christian Bale?
-
Please tell Sly he is awesome, and thank him for making this movie.
-
He already has a main event cast. Arnold is over the hill anyway.
-
I have a RAGING CLUE for this movie!
-
Most anticipated movie of 2010. Just don't lose your balls, Sly. Gives us a hard R, and the fans and geeks will litteraly make you the God of Action Movies. Ahnuld dropped the ball when he ran for governator, and when he did people thought "this is it"... the action heroes are now extinct. But you proved us wrong. Sly, YOU ARE the last action hero.
-
... and make everyone happy. A nice, big, sweaty pair of brazilian boobs.

I WANT AN NC-17 WITH SLY MOTORBOATING THOSE BRAZILIAN BOOBS
by chaimbensexyback
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSly!
-
What you been doin? I'm tryin to come up a little ya know?
-
Any tips? God damn that is the funniest movie I have seen in years. Maria, yes please send our love to Sly. He is truly, as was put above, the last action hero. And pay no mind to the sub-humans requesting shots of you in a bikini. (Sorry ChaimBenSexyback, that WAS in poor taste)
-
All of the best 80's action movies are a hard R (with Top Gun and Raiders being the only exceptions) This movie needs to be balls out awesomeness where anything can happen. With PG-13, you're shackled since we know you can only go so far with the violence. Sly, if this post at all effects your decision, please put the name Kief Ledger in the special thanks during the end credits
-
that would suck. That would genuinely suck
-
That would suck if it's true
-
Hopefully that's just cocknasty being a dick. Phnar
-
Lets get one thing straight here..ARNOLD is not in as bad a shape as some of you would believe. Those photos that some idiot keeps reposting are old and some were photoshopped. More recent pics of Arnold on the beach came out several months ago and he looks good for a man who is not an action star at the moment, but a governor. Over the hill? PLEASE!!! As for CLIFFHANGER...that movie is one of the BEST ACTION SPECTACULARS ever made!!! The action, the stunts, the cinematography, the score, the bad guys and the special effects were 100% TOP NOTCH! CLIFFHANGER is a movie that was nominated (Best Special Effects, Sound effects and sound effects editing) for the seemless effects it had. If THE EXPENDABLES is gonna use CGI...please do it the way CLIFFHANGER did! As well as the way CLIFFHANGER did the trailers...those trailers KICKED FUCKING ASS!
-
"Me and you are done, professionally"
-
... how about some old-school, blood packs hidden under the clothes? In the 80s and 90s, blood looked real. Nowadays it's the same CGI bloodspray crap that doesn't look real one bit (Unrated DH4 anyone?). And even in JOHN RAMBO... it was obvious the blood in the final battle was all CGI. It was spectacular, but still looked pretty fake at times.
-
He was like "What am I doing wrong?" lol
-
God you people and steroids... what, do you think you inject yourself with some steroids and then grow muscles overnight?
-
to expand sets and to blend matte lines, unlike nowadays where every inch of the screen is digital, with a virtual stuntman doing the stuntwork. Sorry to see Renny Harlin given B-movie assignments like the latest WWE movie with "actor" John Cena. Say DH2 was the weakest of the series if you must, but, I watched it recently and its still damned entertaining.As far as digital effects on a low budget, I'm still amazed that The Descent was mostly shot on set.

It's from a swedish news site, the same that brought the first clip from TDK. -
It can't be a REAL Hollywood flick without Will Smith !
-
Fuckin' A.
-
Problem solved.
-
WAS the weakest of the series, if you consider Live Free or Die Hard part of the series. Personally, I don't. So yeah, Die Hard 2 is the weakest. Ever see it on tv? "Yippee-Kay-Yay, Mister Falcon!" Fucking hi-lar-i-ous!
-
That shit was hardcore!
-
Rambo called for it... this was war at its dirtiest. I'd be happy with a regular R rating. I want blood. Not torrents of hemoglobine. But I want to see blood spurting out of wounds, just like in the Eighties and Nineties, and I want to see the bodies hit the floor. Sly will pull it out. We must have faith. Go Sly.
-
where's the edit button when you need it.
-
tell sly he must do a series out of "the expandables" in the next part we need kurt & jcvd and wesley!
its not to late for a chuck norris cameo and a call to michael biehn. i guess he would fly on his own money there?!
PS:I WANT freaking JENSEN ACKLES in THIS MOVIE DAMN IT!:)
ps2: tell sly we love him and we have faith in him, BUT no bourne shit like action, no pg 13 and NO "in" rock or rap soundtrack!
give us one band, one song, a solid rock anthem and the rest score!
some choice:
mötley crüe
survivor (because of the old days:)
guns n roses

About SCHWARZENEGGER in TERMINATOR SALVATION & THE EXPENDABLES!
by abking
Check this shit out...Arnold is coming back hard like Stallone did with Rocky Balboa & Rambo 4. Bring on KING CONAN, TRUE LIES 2 and PREDATOR 3...read this from TERRY CREWS himself...http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2009/04/08/exclusive-arnold-schwarzenegger-cameo-in-terminator-salvation-confirmed-by-actor/
-
he should be someone else, some bad ass general barney has history with, something like that...so we have a soild foundation to extent arnolds character in the second part of the expandables!:)
cus if sly plays barney and arnold himself, then it would mean that sylvester stallone "the actor" would also live in the expandables universe, that would suck! ps:dont forget 2 cast JENSEN ACKLES soon or at least in the next expandables movie!:) -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lkKSrPs3jc

Holy shit! Awesome!

New entry No. 1 is Antônio Rogério Nogueira, known also as "a Minotoro", his sign of Brazil of superheavyweight box champion of 2006 and 2007. Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira, his brother, is known against it as "a Minotauro" and also for his Brazilian jiujitsu. The new trio is concluded by Lyoto Carvalho Machida, son of the Japanese-Brazilian Shotokan of carat master Yoshizo Machida. Lyoto is unhit in the UFC and can show victories against smileo Ortiz and Rich Franklin.

It'll just be cameos for fuck's sake. Arnold himself spoke to the ArnoldFans.com a few weeks ago... and didn't want to raise people's expectations. He said IF he was in T4, it'd be a very brief cameo. He didn't want the film to be sold on his name. Same for The Expendables, he mentioned something like he is walking out of a building and he and Sly run into each other, or something like that. It'd be a day of shoot. Just one scene. Unless Sly manages to convince him...
-
It's "Expendables". Expandables sounds like some kids toy or an Eddie Murphy vehicle where he plays a bunch of fatties. Wait, that'd be stupid.
-
shows up at Sly's house to sell him his shares of Planet Hollywood.
-
If I saw him in the street I would headbutt him.
-
Sly Stallone: Crispy crust, mouth-watering cheese inside.
-
My little Italian LaScallion ...
-
There are some things in CLIFFHANGER that were effects that you would never know...that is why it was nominated!
-
no, it has been nearly decades, since I've seen Cliffhanger. I'm gonna hafta do a Sly Marathon: Cliffhanger, Cobra, First Blood, & Daylight. Yeah, I know-it played at the theater I worked at so now I have a soft spot for it.
-
Some of Arnold's best acting is as Governor.

TEDKORDLIVES - HAVE YOU WATCHED FIRST BLOOD WITH SLY COMMENTARY?
by chaimbensexyback
It's great. I do it with my pants down.
-
that you DON'T like?
-
Sly was only trying to help his wife. He felt bad about what happened.
-
In spite of all these great ingredients...Stallone, Statham, Rourke, Schwarzenegger, Li, Lundgren, Trejo I have to ask?....
WHERE THE FUCK IS CHUCK NORRIS!!
Or would that level of man-itude would simply melt the lens of the projector and burn holes in he movie screen of the theater that dared try to show it? -
http://www.tmz.com/2009/04/08/even-shamwow-couldnt-clean-this-mess/
That's more bloody than Rambo! -
I gotta say I haven't seen first blood since my balls dropped. And I'm turning 30 this year. Yeah, I suck. Sly Commentary? Fuck yeah I'm there. Have you done Total Recall with Arnie and Verhoven? Hi-lar-i-ous! Arnold claims to be the Tri-Star pegesus right off the bat!
-
Well, they're about to drop again!!! That commentary rules.
Thanks, I hate Arnold but I'll check out the commentary.
L'Chaim! -
I was kidding.
-
Honestly, I've always preferred Arnie's movies to Sly's. There are several Sly films that I love-Demolition Man, Tango & Cash among others-but Arnie's movies are so much fun. Well, other than the last five or six. It looks like Sly's about to flip the script on me tho. Beetle Out.
-
...and there scenes together in THE EXPENDABLES are worthing seeing this movie 10 times at theaters for :)
-
hell, there could be so many sequels made.
-
aren't needed. Anyhow, the sequel needs Dudikoff.
-
movie is about? I really know nothing about it...
-
If it turns out as hoped, The Expendables will be a perfect melding of Predator and Rambo. Sly leads a team of mercenaries to assasinate an evil dictator in South America. Action ensues.
-
I have nt been following this movie, and i really didnt know a damn thing about it.
-
Come on, let the girl go. just between you and me, don't deprive yourself of some pleasure. come on Bennett... lets party!
-
I know this puts me in the minority, but there was nothing memorable about the last Rambo. And I dig Rambo, everyone likes first blood, and I dig the second and third a bunch too, they were great, big, fun spectacle, but the 4th was just lazy, there was no energy to it. We just got a lot of violence and blood instead of any decent gripping action, it was mostly watching guys shoot and watching other guys fall down. I will say the best part of that movie was the mercenaries, and since this film is all about mercenaries, that's already a plus. I just hope we get some decent action with these guys, instead of just watching an army of guys running into bullets. And ohyeah, holy shit Stallone looks ripped, no wonder he's been praising HGH (though I don't care what you take, HGH, steroids, etc, to get your body into that kind of shape, especially at 60, takes an extraordinary amount of effort and discipline).
-
There, I said it. In other words, less impact as an action star. Glad he said no. Dolph is a much better choice.
-
http://www.moviehole.net/200918542-murphy-joins-the-expendables
-
2010 will be PWNED BY STALLONE.
-
Spun. Brittany's looking kinda dirty lately. Excellent.
-
Unless you want my spooge in your popcorn.
-
BWAH-HAH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
-
Man this film is going to be great but Sly posted the following on the web:
"Hey SZoners,
Here's the latest from Sly: I know that many people on the site have asked for Kurt Russell. I asked for him too. Actually, I was taken aback when asked to put the request in a letter and send it to his agent. Subsequently, I was called back by the agent several days later after refusing to send a letter and he said Kurt Russell is not interested in 'ensemble acting' at this time. So, People, I came, I saw, I failed.
Best,
Sly"
http://craigzablo.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=SlyTalk&action=display&thread=6492&page=1
Feel sorry for Sly as the fans asked for Russell and so did Sly but sound like his agent is a total jerk and gave Sly the blow-off. Sad especially as Tango & Cash Bluray just came out as it spoils their chemistry in it a little now for me.
-
If he uses some of the same talent from Rambo, in terms of filming and production, I think this film will be totally choice.
-
after "Rambo" and "Rocky Balboa," I will literally go see any movie Stallone does right now.
-
of fans won't be interested in seeing any Kurt Russell movies at this time.
-
Jet Li and Jason Statham will probably be punching and kicking like they did in The One (PG-13).
-
He will regret dissing Sly!!!! When the Expendables rule the world, he will implode from the lost opportunity!!!
