Schwarzenegger Is The Sheriff In The First Trailer For THE LAST STAND!!
The Kidd here...
It's definitely cool to see Arnold Schwarzenegger back, kicking ass once again, even if there's a lot more wear and tear on him. He may have gotten a bit older, but there's still some fight left in him, and he's certainly bringing it in the first teaser trailer for Kim Jee-Woon's THE LAST STAND.
You'll get your fill of Schwarzenegger staples, namely the one-liners... and there's definitely a COP LAND feel to some of this (not a bad thing at all). If the cartel is ruthless enough (and that opening showdown with the law makes me think they will be), this should be a fun reminder of why we've always dug Schwarzenegger flicks.
Can someone explain to me what Johnny Knoxville's deal here is though?

How do Shwarzenegger and Jet Li always get elected sheriff in small towns?

There like the canon or Orion of the present day!!!

...that looks retarded. This NOT what I had in mind when I started to get excited for more Arnold.

either that or he's channeling Dwight Schultz from the A Team.

Little bitches will always complain, but this is what people been waiting for.
by Crosby Brito
Little touch of Johny Knoxville fits right in. Little touch of the movie realizing Arnold isnt young anymore fits in too.

Ok Arnie getting back in shape, doesn't look as rusty as he does in The Expendables 2. Yeah I'm looking forward to this.

As a Californian, I'm happy to see Arnold back on the big screen (instead of in our State's politics). I actually don't think he was a terrible Governor, it’s just a better usage of his time to make films that reside over the ongoing failure of California (our initiative process has eliminated any chance of sane governing).

Kids and retards should not be in action movies. It ruins the suspense because they are not allowed to kill kids or retards in movies. But if that retard gets killed, then this will be a good movie

So if you are ever in an action movie, just stand behind the retard and you'll be safe.

No way in hell will there be a sequence like the killings in the car in Devil. That scene made me
by openthepodbaydoorshal
sit up and take notice. This will do nothing to further Jee-Woon's career. It'll be like Florent-Emilio Siri's Hostage after directing The Nest. Will. Do. Nothing.

Chevy tough.

Copland was a slow boil of a film. This is totally unlike Copland in every way possible. I think the one similarity to Copland is that is stars an action star on the decline, who is old and is a cop. That's it. Looks like fun though.

He's playing a cop????

Arnold should get a new hairstyle and stop squinting his left eye more than the right
by MaulVader
This old woman hairstyle he's been parading around in makes his head seem bigger. Add to that the shrunken body and he kinda looks like a midget. The unequal squinty eye makes him look older. Makes me sad.
-
Arnie needs a new agent - this looks cheap and mindless. If he intends to restart his career this type of crap is not the answer. As for the one liners and humor, it just comes across as sad - almost embarrasing - someone needs to tell him enough with the one liners. Arnie should watch some Dirty Harry movies for inspiration. I think he'd be great sticking to more serious roles at this point - never gonna capture the old days.
-
You're telling me the plot of the film is that the State Police are unable to stop some vehicles headed for the border, so it's up to an old dude with thinning hair and his 'challenged' and hastily-deputized side-kick to stop them, apparently without help from any SWAT teams or state troopers?!? OK, wait, now that I put it that way it sounds kind of awesome.

by Seth Brundle
He fuckin deserves it, but yeah it looks like he's even more wooden now than in the past, nevertheless those final shots of him with the shotgun looked good to me
-
It's great to have the Austrian Oak back, even if he is a bit creakier! If they tactfully 'wink' at his age, it could work very well. A 60+ Arnold is still preferable to the milquetoast "action" heroes we've been force-fed the past decade. I am IN!

Ugh. Schwarzenegger definitely wasn't working on his acting skills during the time off.
by AlienFanatic
The film feels like such a throwback to stuff he did at the beginning of his career, namely Raw Deal, with the same wooden acting today as he demonstrated back then. Look, I love Predator, Terminator, etc., but Arnold is best in films that don't require much range. And I'm afraid I'm just too old to bother seeing movies whose excuse for mediocrity is, "It's an action movie!" TBH, I think Arnold's time has passed and this movie--released in the dumping season of January--will likely reinforce that assertion.
-
Aug. 16, 2012, 2:29 p.m. CST
Knoxville IS terrible in that trailer, I'll give you that....
by ThulsaBoom
...but Arnold looks great. Not hiding from his age, but doing a film in the vein of Raw Deal. Those hating cannot possibly count themselves as fans of the oak.

I really don't understand how anyone who's aware of Kim Jee-Woons films can't be excited for this...
by Jay
The Good, The Bad, The Weird. I Saw The Devil. Tale Of Two Sisters. A Bittersweet Life. The guy has been making the exact type of movies you fucking nerds clamor for! And they're made well! The fact that Arnold is in it is just a bonus. It's really amazing to see so many wannabe jaded film critics fall for yet another typical Hollywood cut trailer. Did you think it wasn't going to be cut like a Fast & Furious movie? Were expecting a PT Anderson The Master style trailer? It's an action movie, and it will be advertised as one. Fortunately it's made by a great director.

This trailer commes off as some unintentional PSA: DON'T USE STEROIDS!!

Looks like it has all the right cliches. Good to have Arnold back. Hope they don't undercut the action with too much CG. Music feels off, maybe just trailer music.
by kevred
Resist the temptation to give us outsized action that can only be created with CG. It's a very delicate balance with action films like these. Just a hair too much CG, and suddenly the whole thing feels like a video game, no weight at all. The kind of dime-a-dozen pseudo-epic-ness that too many directors let CG draw them into is going to look so horribly dated very soon. Action in old Arnold flicks may be implausible in a narrative sense, but visually, it has kick because it's all physically real at some level.
-
Aug. 16, 2012, 3:20 p.m. CST
@orionsangels - how about an Austrian ex-bodybuilder governor of California?
by kevred
Kinda takes the wind out of your "implausible" argument, huh?
-
Those are the two projects I still want him to do the most. Everything else is and always will be filler for me. Thing is, he'll probably have to prove he's still a big draw at the box office before some studio tosses a $150 million+ budget at him again. I'm sure there's also rights issues with CONAN, what with Warner Bros. owning Milius' KING CONAN script and Millennium Films owning CONAN nowadays. On the positive side, Arnold is still the right age for both roles and I can't die fulfilled without seeing the glorious wood chopping/sausage eating training montage from KING CONAN in a theater.
-
been a while since we've had mindless action movie rated R like... Now the only thing im griping about is that in real life the minute the cartel crossed the boarder and killed all those "american" cops the federal govt would have dropped the hammer on that ass.... I dont care what no one says it would have been a full blown military action from there on out. C'mon i get a cartel kill a few dozen cops and no one comes for help?
-
I hoped this would never happen. But now we have another great director up the a$$ for hollywoods mediocre and uninspired bullcrap.
-
Aug. 16, 2012, 3:31 p.m. CST
He should absolutely do a long-haired, beared King Conan.

I was hoping for something smarter. We didnt wait all these years for THIS did we?
-
Aug. 16, 2012, 3:36 p.m. CST
Yeah, you have to LOL at "there would never be a mayor with an Austrian accent" when the guy in question was the governor of California
by Autodidact
Though I'm not dense and can see the difference between a small town and an entire state. It's still a funny thought. Don't ruin it by making sense.
-
Millennium doesn't own Conan anymore. They lost it a few months ago by failing to exercise their sequel option. It's unlikely we'll see another studio purchase the rights anytime soon, let alone try to move forward with the long-dead King Conan. Both Crusade and King Conan would cost considerably more than $150 million. King Conan would've exceeded that amount ten years ago and Arnold couldn't get Crusade greenlit at the height of his T2 superstardom. Now that he's far too old for the main role, I doubt it will ever happen.
-
Anytime I hear Johnny Knoxville's name, I can't help but think of him saying that line over and over in John Waters' "Dirty Shame." It would be great if he said it in this and in all movies and public appearances. Now I wonder what timeless racist witticisms Sheriff Ahnult will be spouting after he kills someone in this. "You been depohted!" maybe? Or how about, "If you don' like it, talk to da guvnuh!" Well, it looks like we finally made it, to the end, looks like we made it to the end... of his career.

THE OLDER ARNIE GETS THE MORE HE LOOKS LIKE A CONDOM STUFFED WITH WALNUTS. I LOVE ARNOLD BUT HE NEEDS TO CUT DOWN ON THE WEIGHTS AS HE GETS OLDER.
by abesapien

...but how many roadblocks does a guy need to steamroll before the authorities send a couple of Apaches after him? How hard can it be for the police or National Guard to either blow up or chaingun that fucker into atoms? I know this is a braindead Arnie movie, but even for an old fan like me it's hard to get my head around the central idea of this movie.

-
I guess I'll see it. Must mean I'm over it. lol
-
for me to poop on
-
Um.. 3 things.. First: Anyone who's ever driven those strips of long lonely highway knows, you're lucky to do 80 without bottoming out. It's bumpy, uneven, and LOTS of up & down waves for hundreds of miles... Second: You're 'criminal' group is only going to be as fast as your slowest car.. so that 'bulldozer' road clearing monster? ... yeah.. didn't think so. Third: Have any of these guys filming this seen what happens when 2 cars slam into each other at REAL high speeds? Also, one of this biggest pet peeves I have always had.. even as a kid, is hearing an engine sound like it's red-lining, and seeing road stripes passing buy at walking pace. NONE of these fucktards ever consider re-painting the section to make the strips much shorter, thus enhancing the illusion of speed. Hell, in this day & age, would it be so freaking hard to just CGI in some decent road movement?
-
that looks rubbish!
-
With the body gone Arnie has to rely in his acting chops...oh dear.
-
Aug. 16, 2012, 4:46 p.m. CST
@captain_spalding - to keep those thoughts going...
by Cletus Van Damme
As a former cop, I can say that the roadblock shown was BS. Legally, the police have to leave an opening in a roadblock (as dumb as that sounds). It's a liability thing.
-
...without helicopters...
-
You assholes would be bagging on the trailer even if every critic on the planet gave it 4 stars. Seriously if almost every talk-backer had a massive coronary in the next 5 minutes the worlds IQ would rise dramatically.
-
Our culture just keeps spinning down but it never hits bottom.
-
Even though The Tomb is definitely looking like the better new role for him, I'm still gonna check this out.
-
Seriously, old Arnold with a shotgun? why the hell not. No different from Clint in Gran Torino. Just without the, you know, acting.
-
and he looks OLD to...still in great shape though for a guy his age...can still make a few more good action flicks before hanging up the boots

At least Arnold does. I like Knoxville just fine, but he looks retarded. Kinda stands out in that machine gun spot at the end. I haven't seen I Saw the Devil yet, but heard it's good. I wonder if this will play as Walking Tall 3 in some markets.
-
This will bomb. Arnold looks old can't deliver lines anymore and this will suck and bomb. Guarantee.
-
That is all.
-
We need some new good Arnold movies to wipe out the taste of his mid 90's - early 00's film era.
-
Arnold back, in his own movie, not a cameo. Knoxville is great. He was the best part of Jackass, which I'm sure none of you watched and loved (uh Huh). He has some acting chops too. And a Great Director. You guys are lame. I would love to see you guys shit on every movie in the 70's and 80's if there was an internet. You would hate Goonies, Back to the Future, Taxi Driver, and The Thing. I bet you would have said Escape From New York looked Gay. Get a fucking Grip. At least, it is Trying, to Entertain you. I'm going to see it for sure.

a physical action star. No question. The Austrian-accented hick town sherriff turned undercover mob infiltrator wasn't convincing in 1986 in Raw Deal. Why should an aged Austrian-accented sherriff turned one-man cartel buster in 2012 be any more so? Seriously, does anyone now or for that matter has anyone ever gone to see Arnold for his thespian skills? I certainly don't. Yes, he's looking a little peaked here, but then for a man whose probably older than your fathers to kick that much collective ass, I'm not complaining. People will try to post-modernize and deconstruct our obsession over him, but the fact remains, I'm not so much trying to relive the 80's or for that matter the 90's so much as I care about quality stunt work punctuated with cheesy one-liners. As long as its say above Commando/Last Action Hero level, I'm fine. That's why I (and I suspect many of you) go to see an Arnold film. So for crying out loud, if he can deliver that and bring along Jonny Knoxville (looking like a flagrant appeal to the Jackass generation of stunt comic relief), then fine. Everyone calm down already.

Will you little whiney pre-pubescent bitches shut the fuck UP about his age already? 65 is NOT that old,idiots.
by wcolbert
Jesus tapdancing christ you pack of pussified little shits don't really understand how life works, do you? Only fat, mouth breathing dumbass Americans (I was born here, so you can relax) keel over and die when they're only 65. Fucking retards. My great aunt still RUNS several miles a week and she's nearly 80. Of course she wasn't born in the US so makes sense. Bottom line - if you actually think that being 65 means you should curl up in a ball and die, or that you'll be feeble and unable to move around and remain active and vital...you really shouldn't be allowed to reproduce and spread your flaming stupidity. Your age has nothing to do with the number of times you've been around the sun. It has far more to do with how good of shape you have kept yourself in, your diet, and your genetic makeup. One man's 65 is another man's 45. I guarantee you Arnold is still stronger and more physically capable at 65 than you little walking pussies who harp on his age will ever be. Deal with THAT, you little stick-necked girls. When are you going to realize....a few extra wrinkles doesnt indicate weakness or lack of vitality. It's skin. Skin does that over time. Yours has already started. You can be in incredible shape and be wrinkly as fuck, but it doesnt mean you can't still kick the fuck out of little internet half-wits. Everyone ages at different rates. I can't wait until you're 65 and realize how fucking pathetic you look next to Arnold when he was 65. You'll be bald, white haired, fat, and unable to bench more than 80 lbs. Compared to the average, which you will be...Arnold is a model of fitness. No, really. Remember your words - look in the mirror when you hit 65. You fat pathetic idiots will be ashamed by what you see.

I always Knoxville had real potential to do some rat pack type cool-guy acting. Depp, Rockwell, that mold. He puts one in mind of what Vince Vaughn looked like before he got mauled in that hot dog accident

He was the bomb in 50's street gang programmer DEUCES WILD with Brad Renfro, Stephen Dorff, Fairuza Balk... Give the fucker a chance you fucking mindless lemming nerds.

You put Knoxville in your movie because you know your audience. Trailer park kids, WWF twinkie sniffers, and dudes that ride electric skateboards that run on Mountain Dew.

But that's because he's a fucking MORON apparently. Why is he writing reviews for this site? He shows zero fucking film knowledge with a comment like that. Oh yeah, and there's the small fact that no one can stand his reviews, but don't let that affect your decision making or anything, Harry

Arnold coming back to the big screen is like an event... I've seen nothing but bull shit on screen lately, and I happen to be a big fan of the Director...

When did entertainment become so fucking critique???
by Andrew Quinsatt
Fuck you Al Gore!!!! As for you little fucking girls on these talkbacks, keep bitching about movies and it will continue to suck and suck.... Arnold is back, that's enough for me...

something about the loose skin around the face and eyes...<p> also i can totally hear this arnold yelling "YOU'RE TEARING ME APART, LISA!"<p> i think our schwarzenegger is gone people.

...though the machinegun in the school bus is throwing even my Arnie-fu off. On the other hand, he's not trying to jump a building on a horse. (And, TBH, I could ALMOST see where Kidd got the 'Cop Land' thing from--an easygoing rural sheriff who finds himself up against forces beyond his control, i.e. Team Cartel on one side and no doubt Team Fed on the other--but I can't help thinking that at least one Cannon film basically did exactly that. Someone help me out here?)

is a straight lift of Clint Eastwood. Watching Clint run out of breath, or try to grapple with a younger tough, was an inside joke in a lot of the later Clint movies. By the time he makes Unforgiven, he makes a poignant statement about age. Arnie's smart enough, to have that kind of humor about his aging

Fair point, paulloch...but does that make this Arnie's 'The Dead Pool'?

Vintage Arnold. A refreshing throwback to simple, violent action movies that made Arnold who he is and why we love the dirty old Kraut! FUCK shit like Hunger Games that will be forgotten in 5 years, people still talk about Arnold's movies 30 years on. Terminator 2 sucks....

Males today are just so soft and pussy. Voting for Obama does that...
by Dan
have no concept of the violent action movie or why Arnold rocks. Sucks to be them.

a classic if done in the 80ies. Suck it haters. I am in.

Some of us have family members and loved ones that are mentally retarded. They can't help that, and it's insulting to both them and their caring families and caregivers. Using the term the way some of you do is appaling, gutwretching, and outright heartbreaking human behavior. Shame on you! Shame on you! I cry myself to sleep at least once a week thanks to these horrendous, rude comments. It's hate speech, albeit hate speech that's condoned by the vast majority of people because they've become too accustomed to hearing it and laughing along with the heinous bullies, THE HEINOUS BULLIES!! that litter forums and pollute the air with their vile, filthy speech. Pathetic. Anyone who says such things on here and anywhere for that matter should be ashamed of themselves. I can't even finish typing completely what I wanted to say because of the tears welling up in my eyes thanks to this blot on mankind.

It's not hate speech unless its directed at you....STOP BEING A PUSSY!
by Dan
Free speech, know it, accept it and live it. Stop being so weak by letting words have power over you.

Motarded is the word to use. As in: zodlovesmaude is motarded

Because Mitt is so much more manly than Barry, or maybe ol zodkins is googling a shirtless ryan and fapping his lil self silly

Speaking of retards, this reminds me of something that happened to me at walmart the other day
by ajit maholtra
I went to walmart to go shopping, and when I entered, there was one retard in the store staring at me. He didnt say hello, he just stared at me as I walked in. Then I found out he works there, and walmart pays him to stand there because they think that when people see a retard standing there, they will want to come to walmart more. For me it had the opposite effect.
-
Really want to like this movie, but that trailer (hate to say it) looks very generic and un-original. At least Stallone understands that if you're gonna do an action movie, DO a real frick'n action movie!! I'd rather watch EX2.
-
Actually looked kind of fun until he appeared. Looks pretty stupid stupid, not stupid fun.

All its missing is Vin Deisel. Why even have the weak pretense of Arnold's character? Why not just fill the entire movie with terrified cops and asians with machine guns?

Looks better than I expected! (which wasn't much), the camera work at least looks great
by Rebel Scumb

of all kinds...good, bad or terrible; camera work! When the camera vibrates, shakes and makes everything look like an incoherent mess, they are instantly forgettable.

^^^agree even on the first Expendables, we didn't see a damn thing
by chien_sale
Cinematographers and directors should shot a scene and let the fucking camera on that scene and leave it alone. I watched Rambo III yesterday and while it wasn't the greatest movie, it was satisfying because you could see everything. You can go from scenes to scenes but before changing scenes when there's one scene that is filmed in particular, they should stop the multi angles, do one big wide shot and let the actors perform. The final fight between Stallone and the villain in the first Expendables was absolutly terrible.

No doubt ABKing is running around like a mong-on-crack...
by AnalFissure
...but this looks absolutely fucking terrible. Still, it will have to go some way to being worse than the complete and utter shitfest that is Expendables 2.

This can only work if the entire movie turns out to be one of Arnie's dreams in a retirement home.....

The other part wants an awesome big budget reboot- and I'm not talking about that shit movie that came out last year. I mean a real take on the material sorta LOTR style... but hey I feel the same way about Green Lantern as well..
