Dolph Lundgren breaks Quint while chatting EXPENDABLES, DIRECT CONTACT and UNIVERSAL SOLDIER!!!

He-Man's grandpa for the win!! :P by Bouncy X	Jun 2nd, 2009 08:37:04 PM
That was a funny comment. But am i reading right, the Universal Soldier sequel is already done? I thought that was just a rumor or something being filmed later this year or 2010.

Thanks by TELF	Jun 2nd, 2009 09:54:19 PM
Really enjoyed that. Dolph comes across as a real humble dude.And I totally agree with him re. scarred older dudes with shotguns...
Macho Man Randy Savage! by sith_rising	Jun 2nd, 2009 10:11:34 PM
hell yeah, that's a great idea. the only things missing would be Tim "Tiny" Zeus Lister, Sven Thorsen, Mack and Billy and Dillon from Predator, Sonny Chiba, and hell, we've got an old-school action movie!
hi, how are COMMAND PERFORMANCE you doing? by BadMrWonka	Jun 2nd, 2009 10:11:55 PM
this was a COMMAND PERFORMANCE pretty cool interview. but the guy should COMMAND PERFORMANCE try to work in COMMAND PERFORMANCE mentions of his COMMAND PERFORMANCE other COMMAND PERFORMANCE work from time to time. you gotta COMMAND PERFORMANCE sell yourself, Dolph! COMMAND PERFORMANCE!!!!
Hey Quint--good good interview. by Sal_Bando	Jun 2nd, 2009 10:33:58 PM
You do alright w/ these things you know? I liked it alot more than I thought I would-a Dolph Lundgren interview in '09? but you know what--good reading.
where's the fanletter chat with Oleg? by Spandau Belly	Jun 2nd, 2009 10:35:02 PM
We have like two months of Stallone answering questions from fans, why not at least one session with Dolph Oleg Lundgren?
Dolph is fucking cool. by ebonic_plague	Jun 2nd, 2009 11:16:54 PM
Really good interview, Quint. That guy has such a larger than life presence on screen, it's got to be insanely intimidating to even sit down across from him and ask questions. I mean the guy was Ivan Drago, He-Man, AND the Punisher! That's a pretty weighty resume in terms of movie badass-ness. His inclusion in The Expendables seems to me like the only real make-or-break necessity, in light of his onscreen rivalry/relationship with Sly. Sounds like he's got a good part to chew on, too. I just hope he's got enough screentime, and isn't just a glorified cameo.
that was a great interview by EmptyWalletProductions	Jun 2nd, 2009 11:19:07 PM
informative, and funny has hell: "I’ve worked with some good directors – like John Woo, and Stallone, and (Roland) Emmerich – people I learn from. But, you know, not that many, so…" awesome! but anyway, great interview!
Dolph rules by Omar B	Jun 2nd, 2009 11:19:35 PM
Yesterday I was thinking of all the awesome movies he kicked ass in. Rocky, Red Scorpion, I Come In Peace, He-Man, Cover-Up, Showdown In Little Tokyo, Universal Soldier, Army Of One, Shooter, Peacekeeper,Bridge Of Dragons, it goes on. He kicks ass in everything!
Omar B by Forsakyn	Jun 2nd, 2009 11:24:34 PM
I agree. Dolph has done a wider (and wilder) range than most of his counterparts. I've always enjoyed him, although I'm first to admit movies like Universal Soldier had really bad acting out of him. That said, he HAS dramatically improved over time. Really looking forward to The Expendables (and Command Perfomance).
QUINT- What happened to the Tintin story and talkback? by D.Vader	Jun 2nd, 2009 11:34:27 PM

VERN by brokenheadstuff	Jun 3rd, 2009 12:10:21 AM
get the fuck in here and say something
Good job Quint by Vern	Jun 3rd, 2009 12:25:17 AM
Quint was very nice to offer it to me. He also tried to get me to interview Van Damme one time. But he's a much better interviewer than I would be. My questions would have all been about Blackjack, whether his character was supposed to be gay and could he elaborate on why he is afraid of the color white. Quint got much more important information out of him. I enjoyed reading this and can't wait for COMMAND PERFORMANCE and THE EXPENDABLES. Kind of sounds like they might've made his character bigger than in the script I read (but then am I reading it wrong or does he refer to it as a cameo? Hmmm.)

No one is looking forward to the next Unisol by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Jun 3rd, 2009 08:11:59 AM
installment. The first one was great. An original idea that had some of the biggest, baddest mo fos on the block. JCVD, Dolph with his ear necklace, and a great second echelon including Tiny Lister. The second one sucked so bad. I guess I mean the second one with JCVD because wasn't there a DTV sequel? That was a shame really because JCVD and Michael Jai White are both great. Goldberg made a decent debut. If it wasn't his acting debut it was his first, shall we say larger part role. The plot of that one just didn't cut it for me.
Dolph's Punisher was terrible but not because by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Jun 3rd, 2009 08:16:39 AM
of him. Again, it's a shame. The man is a great action actor. He's how old now, and still keeps in rock hard shape. It's these damn writers. They come up with good concepts, but then blow it. He had the Frank Castle look, but the script was nothing out of the comic. And then there's I Come in Peace. Good premise, but I thought the effects were just terrible. What really needs to happen, and from what I'm told it's happened in several DTVs that I haven't seen, is that we need Dolph in a movie where there's a decent plot, decent effect, and him doing what he does best which is breaking people.
I hope we see more than a sliver of Dolph by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Jun 3rd, 2009 08:20:08 AM
in The Expendables. There's so many badass guys in it. He should be at the top of the heap. As Spandau Belly pointed out in the other talkback, and Ironic also said they should make an Ivan Drago movie where decades after he's been released from the gulag for choking his commie handler he's back with a vengeance. Dolph, ask Sly about it. Sly, make it happen. We love both you guys.

When Dolph is banging on the drums he should do it like the Ewoks at the end of Jedi, but instead of Stormtrooper helmets have severed heads. Okay, I know it's wishful thinking, but c'mon.
BrokenHeadStuff- yes I brought up Tintin by D.Vader	Jun 3rd, 2009 09:43:04 AM
I'd like to know why AICN had the entire story deleted, and sometimes the best way to get that answer is to call out the editor in question. In this case, its QUINT.

Refreshing to hear Dolph talk about being on both sides of the camera, but I hope he'll continue acting for a while yet. She who wouldn't mind seeing Street Preacher come back (even though he was juiced at the end of Johnny Mnemonic).

Lungren's Punisher did a lot right. by TheLastCleric	Jun 3rd, 2009 04:12:36 PM
His "I don't give a shit" attitude was dead on and the extreme violence of his character was accurate. My favorite part of the film is when he is fighting that little karate chick and he just puts his hands around her neck and snaps it, negating all her fancy bullshit.
I come in Peace. Then you go in pieces! by Supershadow	Jun 3rd, 2009 05:26:19 PM
Lungren cracks me up.
Amen, Last Cleric by TedKordLives	Jun 3rd, 2009 05:26:40 PM
Lundgren's Punisher is still the best one. Why? Well, first of all, before the end of the opening credits, it's established that he's got a body count of 175+. Badass. It's got the best villain-Jeroen Krabbe. Not much competition tho: Gayass Travolta (no offense intended, but he sucks.) and Disco Frankenstein. And the way Dolph is made up in that movie, he looks the spitting image of Jim Lee's Frank Castle. He tells his torturer to Fuck himself before he escapes and kills him. Oh, and Punisher vs. a Ninja Squad? Fucking epic. If I recall correctly, he even makes a derorgatory comment about Batman! Oh, and FTW: I present Louis Gossett, Jr. Awesome.
