This week on the program, I feel like this movie must have broken the bank with the hair die budget.
It's the expendables three.
I'm Andrew Jupin.
I'm Stephen Sadek.
Eric Stonebanks.
Sandbank.
Chris Cabin.
And we hate movies.
Hello,
a comedy show that takes a movie each
week and makes fun of it just a little bit.
Sometimes they're good. Sometimes they're bad.
Sometimes they're the expenditures.
Three, this is from 2014.
No, but you said bad.
You said the bad.
Speaking of bad, directed by Patrick Hughes,
you know him from the director of Hitman's Bodyguard,
which I turned off.
Hitman's wife's bodyguard,
which I never tried to see.
And the man from Toronto, which Netflix
is doing their damnedest not to tell
you exist. What is that? It's
Woody Harrelson, and I believe Kevin Hart's like
an NYC fuck up. And Woody Harrelson is like a super
killer. He's the man from Toronto, like an assassin, kind of like his real life
father. A super killer in Toronto. What does he kill? Tim Horton's
coffee cups. He kills Tim Horton's
breakfast combos. Yeah. Super killer. Casca se. Everyone, because Canada is
very genteel, very, very like, ooh. No, but
they got some killers out there. You think so? Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. He's a psychopathic killer, but show what.
Exactly.
I think that's how they react to most of their psycho killers out there.
I got to tell you, though, like this dude gets this directorial credit, but much like Simon West with the expendables too, man.
I feel this is an in-name only. It's got to be Stallone direct in these movies, right?
I don't even know if there's, I mean, I hope it's Patrick Hughes because Jesus Christ, this is actually like, I mean, at least I remember the first one having a little bit of fun with it.
The action in this movie is so terrible.
It is.
Even the second movie, the kills were out of control.
There was like 30,000 people that died in.
Really good opening to the second one.
Simon West gets to have his fun right up top.
But there's a big siege right at the open.
And I think it's better than even the train.
I like the train sequence fine.
The train is fine.
But then eventually we get the train to killing the prison itself.
And it's just you're watching like CGI bricks fall down.
And that's, but the idea of it is still cool.
Like there's, that's what.
sucks about watching this, I think, is like, you see all the missed opportunities and you see
the things that would have been better if it was actually a 1980s action movie made in the 1980s.
Like, there's so many times, and you can't help it because you're looking at all these
motherfuckers that are in this movie that were in those movies and you're like, well, in
1987, that would have been a real helicopter, you know, and shit like that.
There's the part where Sly, it's like, oh, that opening part of the mission is over and
he pushes a button and detonates the helicopter, and it's just a computer explosion. And it's
like, that was where I had the first thought this time, where I was like, they would have
just blown up a helicopter. Of course, blow up a fucking helicopter. What are we doing? They had the
money. They had the guts. You could kill somebody on set back then and hide the body. Well, look at
where you're filming these movies these days. Dude, you're going to tell me the Romanian government's
going to have a problem with you blowing up a helicopter. I don't think you. You've got to pay a nice
price on that thing. Sure. They probably do it every week in Romania. You know,
Like every week's the 4th of July, they blow up by helicopter.
All you got to do is bring the equipment.
But you get things from that.
You get political power from that kind of stuff.
What are you getting from this, Stallone,
coming to your fucking one of your Bucharest and be like,
inner!
Yeah, I insisted that we had the premiere in Bucharest, Romania, man.
It was such a generous people.
It was a great film.
The tax credit, just unbelievable, man.
I'm staying with Andrew Tate.
He has given me the camera.
Mansion Alpha, which is on the southern border of Bucco chest.
Do you think, man, just?
Dude, you're getting all this money from Bucharest?
You got to fucking put that on your taxes?
That's going to be a fucking nightmare.
Yep.
Like, did you make any money outside of the United States this year?
Oh, man.
I'm getting fucked by these Bucharest books, man.
I just like, oh, got all these Bukarest books.
Bucco box, yeah.
Hello, Canary Island.
Yeah, I got some Bucca bucks I got to send you.
Don't worry. He's doing just fine. Do not worry about Sylvester Stallone.
He bought, what, like a $90 million house in Florida? Good for him.
$90 million dollars in Florida. $90 million to live in fucking Florida.
What a fucking scam. I mean, it is going to be a breakaway republic soon. So I'm time to get it.
Well, if you want to corner market a power there. I heard they're renaming it to Asmanistan.
The Romanian Lou currently is point two, 22 cents on an American.
American dollars. All right. We can live like
hell damn ass kings ago. You know what?
You know, Steve and he might have had an
idea. I got to find me
a crooked leader.
Give me, give me some names.
Is Pinochet still alive?
Oh, is it? Damn, man.
We should actually do that. We should move the
podcast to Romania, become
Romanian nationals. Record there.
I'm sure it's, as,
because you know, all these fucking scumbags
move their shows to Texas.
There's no income tax or whatever.
But we'll get the universal health care over there.
You've got to watch out like nine out of,
my understanding in Romania at least is nine out of ten pizza deliveries
are actually stings.
So you got to be.
That's actually true.
And there's the hostels that kill people in.
But the good thing is we could moonlight there and work there.
We'd be in like Flint though,
dude,
because I got a couple of friends in Romania as folks I've worked with over the years,
the really good people.
Oh, shit.
We'd get in with like the good ilk in Romania.
I like that.
So when we'd deal with the hostile managers,
hostile the horror movie.
Getting very close
with Nikki Chichisku
and me and him
we're gonna get
we're gonna get this show
oh wait he's dead too
man
Chachescu God
Pinochet go
oh my friends today
I'm sorry
my brain just shut the fuck off
in 93
after that
it's there's nothing really there
uh well there's so much
Botox man
just like a brood
playing on my brain like a banjo
he is at least
looking
like a person
like he's come down in this one finally.
And he's looking even better these days.
I think Tulsa King, they were like, look, man.
You can't be looking like fucking shit on Paramount Plus.
Can't do nothing about the sound.
The thing he's making with his mouth.
That cannot be fixed.
But perhaps the look.
There's a good joke later on when like Statham is over the radio and like Ford can't
understand.
It was like, what the hell is that guy saying?
Like we're just kind of a fine joke.
But can you imagine like being like,
It would be, you got you, but yeah, but over.
Like, I got nothing, dude.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, pull up to the second window over.
I mean, the joke is especially ironic because, like, yes,
Tatham's got that sick English, whatever the fuck.
But, like, you're also comparing that to Sylvester Stallone,
Harrison Ford, who you were also talking to on this radio.
But Jason Satham's name is Lloyd Christmas.
I understand.
He's from the dumb and dumber verse as well.
Lee Christmas, isn't it?
Oh, Lee Christmas, of course.
I kept saying Lloyd Christmas this whole time.
I was watching it, dude.
Well, now that's, I, we could say that for,
the new one is a Lee Christmas move.
Statham gets billing above Stallone.
Whoa.
Is that right?
Yeah, if you watch the ads on IMDBs where I've seen.
I was actually kind of curious, like, why is he still doing these movies?
Not that he's rolling in it, but you know, he's like a, Statham.
Statham, yeah, like why.
And I guess now to be the king of the expendables.
Like, this is just, he likes doing crap.
Like, I'm sorry, those Meg movies I think did good internationally.
those movies are fucking terrible.
The Chinese love the Meg franchise.
They do like Seabees in general, I think.
But Fast and Furious movies in Hobbes and Shaw are also not good.
No, well, but Fast and Furious at least like that is a brand that they're, I mean,
despite where I think a few people in this room thing, there are good ones of them.
Really?
There are.
They're in the back.
Okay, I got to go look.
Furious seven is the one I go to bat for, but there are other ones that I think are fine.
because she's such a Ronda Rousey head
because she's in that one.
Holy shit.
James Wanhead,
but she is,
we got to talk about her.
She's terrible.
She's so bad in this fucking movie.
It is.
This is her first acting outing.
Sure.
I would have done better.
And I would look better in the dress.
There is,
I mean,
she thankfully,
I think the moment happened.
It was like,
you know,
mid-aughts,
like,
oh,
here's this really attractive,
you know,
UFC fighter and people like,
she's got a little charisma,
which no one saw.
And she did this.
she did the entourage movie. She did Furious 7
and that just window closed. Now she just went to the
WWE, which makes so much sense. Is she
wrestling? I believe she's wrestling. Yeah.
Oh, okay. She's a friend of mine, Jason,
I'm not, I shouldn't say it's like, my friend Jason,
he like, he helps does like video work for her
these days. Like he's, he lives out in Michigan, but he does,
he flies out to L.A. to do stuff with her. And he runs
and she does like a lot of back in the back, like showing how to do
kinetics and like fight stuff
like phone stuff like that. What are these like nudie
videos? No, no. Nudy videos.
But she is. Yeah, sorry, Rhonda.
You just lost $15 for Andrew Jufin.
You were about to, you almost closed
the deal. She is so bad
in this movie. She is terrible, yeah.
I mean, like she's just, I mean, she's bad in
entourage. She's bad on everything she's ever done.
Wait, bad in an entourage. I'll tell you this, though.
Like, I mean, whatever. She's a fighting
person. She's not an actor.
Yes, exactly. Well, she's not good at this.
Every line delivery is still better than her and entourage, which happened after this movie.
Somebody's fucking in there.
Every time she was on screen during this in my head, I was like, somebody's fucking in there.
Because that is a genuinely terrible line delivery.
And I know this person's terrible, but Gina Carrarra.
Corona.
Karana.
She's better.
Well, yeah, she was the one that actually made it.
And then, of course, whoops a doodle.
She's a piece of shit.
She was a better actor.
Maybe not so much a better person.
No. Well, I think they're both bad people, probably.
They hit people for money.
Well, sure.
I don't get paid. Yeah, you get paid to get hit too.
I guess that's fair. Should I be go, should I go into that?
Dude, I'd love it. Yeah, I'd love to see you get punched in the face for money.
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, these teeth are on their way out anyway.
Might as well just fucking finish that off.
Are you trying to do a jackass rip? Just like somebody punches you every time.
Speaking of which, I mean, you want to finance these new teeth. You can now get these
episodes ad free.
That's true.
Patreon.com slash
We Hate Movies.
Go check it out.
Pay for my smile.
That might get knocked around.
Oh,
if things get tight.
Oh, it will be.
I mean, this movie is a disaster.
I mean,
I really think this movie is like no redeeming qualities,
even as stacked of the cast as it is,
which is actually one of the biggest problems.
We spend the first 25 minutes getting Wesley Snipes out of,
uh,
whatever bullshit fake land,
he's going to.
Serbia, I think it is.
He's actually Serbia. That's a real place.
Not as menistan. It's like we get Serbia and then we get
Somalia. We get Somalia second.
Yeah. This, what is this?
Serbia is the train. Swaziland is where Terry Cruz gets shot.
They go to Romania at one point and then the end of the movies in a fake country.
But you know, it really doesn't matter because it all feels like a fake country.
It's all Romania.
Well, what's interesting about it is asmistan?
Asmenistan.
Asmenistan, when they look at the file
after they say it, the file says Afghanistan.
No way.
It absolutely 100% does.
It didn't want the bin Laden estate to sue us, man.
Can't say Afghanistan.
But Wesley Snipes, you know, you're so excited.
He does nothing in this.
In the beginning, it's like, oh, shit.
How is Wesley Snipes going to fit in with these expendables?
Yep.
And then the rest of the movie is just the rest of the movie.
It seems like he's integral to the plot.
We are breaking him out of this prison train,
this huge sequence.
We're calling him Dr. Death.
He's killed more people than the plague.
He's better at knives than Lloyd Christmas is,
if you could believe such a thing.
And then nothing.
Then he's written out of the movie.
There is literally a part in the final action sequence of this movie
where when your brain finally starts to go,
hey, where's Wesley?
There is literally a shot of him laying on the ground.
on playing dead as people run
by. And I was like, oh, that's where he's been.
Which, you know, I mean, speaking of Patreon, we got an
episode on Blade, which I'm glad I was
able to watch that before I watched this because I'm like,
oh yeah, I fucking love Wesley Snipes.
Exactly. Because here, it's just a pale
imitation and it's just,
we're doing these dumb jokes, you know,
like the whole tax evasion joke. That's
why he was in jail.
Because I think was this, I mean,
this was probably his one of the first
maybe not the return, but like
the biggest profile.
since he was unfairly fucking jailed for that shit.
Because let me find me a fucking white guy
that goes to jail for that shit that much.
I'll wait.
Exactly.
Taxation is theft.
This motherfucker did the full term.
He was in prison from 2010 to 2013.
The full fucking term.
They put you in jail for that.
Wesley, no, man.
You fucking killed a kid.
We don't go to jail for taxes, right?
We're rich people.
They called it tax evasion.
Hey, babe.
did I pay taxes on Rocky
it's either Rocky 2 or Rocky 3
I stopped paying taxes
That's what I was like you know what
Enough's enough right
I've paid some taxes
I'm Sly's wife
I've been paying
He doesn't know what he's talking about
No dude Rocky 3 I was like no thank you
I mean I think the problem there is that
You have three major additions to the cast
And you give the other two
Way more to do you give Mel Gibson
Way more to do
way more to say. Which is a villain, which makes sense.
Yeah. And also, I mean, Antonio
Banderas, he gets a big, at the
end, at the back half of this, he gets
a lot to do. It is the Antonio Bandera
show in the third act. It is. And he's good
and he seems energetic and he wants
to be there. I was into this performance
by Antonio Banderas. And
Mel Gibson's not half bad either. I think
the issue is that you get, he,
it's probably structured exactly like this
where Wesley Snipes is your opener.
Mel Gibson fills in the middle
part. And then you get Bandaris in
on the end, and that's how your flavor profile's
going. Right. And then the, but the first
one, the problem is that you also have to
set up your stupid fucking movie.
So his stuff gets cut right and a half because
he did all the setup shit. And
that you have the four new baby expendables
Ronda Rousey and three
absolute zeros.
Glenn Powell? Are you?
Well, at the time,
an absolute dud and a half.
I agree with that because this guy didn't
get off the goddamn floor
until Top Gun Maverick, right? What else
was he in?
Rick Linklater's
All right. Come on, come on.
Everybody wants them.
He's great amended.
Because actually, no, I did mean
Glenn Powell.
He at least is the hacker guy,
so he's got stuff to do.
But Victor Ortiz and Kellyn Lutz.
I mean, I couldn't tell them apart.
I didn't know who was on the motorcycle at the end
and I didn't know why I should care.
Expendables, too, I think, is the one with Liam Hemsworth or whatever.
Yes.
Who gets blissfully murdered and actually dies.
And that's the thrust to move.
What if we had four of them or whatever?
And it's like, this is too much to add,
especially when you're trying to make Snipes a thing.
Snipes should be least integral to the climax.
You're absolutely correct on us.
I kept thinking Snipes was going to flip on everybody or something.
That's how I was misremembering the movie.
Because I think on,
I think it's the end of the faculty episode when Steve,
when you say like we're doing Expendables 3 talking about Wesley and whatever.
And I was like, isn't he the villain?
I had like a big mismemory of him flipping on them.
Everyone's a good guy except for Mel Gibson and everybody, everybody lives, which is insane for a movie called The Expendable.
And it's a dirty dozen suicide squad-esque premise wherein half of these guys should be killed at each movie.
They should be killed. And we should see them die. Instead, we have a PG-13 movie where you do not see really any, like people died, quote, unquote. They fall down.
It's all just digital gunfire, which I'm not, I'm not opposed to digital gunfire.
Like, that's clearly a thing that we should be using more these days.
But, like, I need fucking squibs.
When you have these movies where, like, not only now is it Statham, but Wesley's also a knife guy.
Like, I need some throats getting caught.
Maybe you see Wesley's shaving with that huge fucking sword knife at the beginning.
That needs to decapitate somebody.
I also need the commander of the as Manistan.
army or whatever to be an actual character, a heavy. And number two to Gibson. I need,
because these just guys wearing army fatigues and berets just falling down doesn't cut it. I need a
character that is in the military where we are represented. These are all things that like, yes,
if you get rid of the young cast, you can fit these things in. And it's not so much about like,
you got to, I can't have my team die on me. The problem is is that that that represents the confused
idea of this movie
which is like you would think since it's
Stallone since it's these older guys
the whole point is like to
age gracefully like that you are
you are doing like you're still hard
you can still do it but like you have
accepted your age and you can't keep doing this shit
three or four pills I'm hired as a fucking ride
don't worry don't even have to last like six hours man
it's great but then like the whole thing is that
the whole time they're like no actually what's cool
is acting like you're young when you're an older
right acting like you can do everything
on your own is actually the coolest thing
in the world. You set up those four kids
to be like a passing of the torch. This is the
younger generation of the expendables. We talk
about how so many have died. Like
Wesley Snipes is like, oh, where's Woods
men and where's whoever? And they are dead.
So we get some young
blood in there and it's like, oh, this is great.
This is, you know, it's passing the torch.
Young bucks up and coming. But no,
because they're millennials.
I have to save
them in the end. Yes, exactly.
They cannot have, they cannot actually
achieve anything they
it drove me nuts
but even if that's your point of view
then kill three or four of them
you know what I mean kill all four of them to be saved
kill two of them kill because like
there needs to be a body count on that end
even I was thinking about it too like
nobody even gets shot like in the action
in a random you know
any action movie from the 80s any
Stallone shorts and anger whatever
he's getting shot in the shoulder
and he's getting through the facility
he's like I don't know if I'm going to make it
These dudes are fucking bulletproof.
None of them get shot.
Like, there's 12 of them at one point.
It's insane.
It's a Terry cruiser ratio.
That's fair.
But at the end of the movie, to your point, there's like 50 people in one helicopter.
I'm like, how can this fucking fly?
If you were watching McBain, right?
And it's that McBain movie where McBain's partner, he's bought the boat.
You're talking about the Simpsons.
Not the Christopher walking.
Gary Bucie movie. Gary Busey movie.
I forget. Whatever.
He's in Bulletproof. I know that.
Point is. There is that McBain movie
where McBain's partner is like shot to death.
The guy, Mendoza.
And then imagine if at the end of that McBain movie,
the partner was just alive.
Like, and whatever, there's on the trivia, like,
oh, Terry Cruz begged sly.
Like, there has to be something.
I mean, I'm sorry. Tough shit.
You're on Brooklyn 9-9.
it's a hit TV show. Sorry. But that's
the problem with doing these
the people, the people
they're celebrating, Stallone and all
of them, the one thing that they always
had in their contract is my hero
cannot die. So they probably
allow all of them to have that in their
fucking contract. It lessens your fucking
product though. And to the thing about like
they don't care about the quality of the product. They don't
give a fuck. Sly at least was like these
will never be PG-13 rated ever again.
Man, I love that quote. I was a huge
miscalculation on a
That was clearly the problem with this movie.
That's the last time I believe the bean counters, man.
Because, I mean, it makes no sense
because obviously the audience of this movie,
as we've said numerous times, is divorced dads.
I mean, like, I think we, who are now in the older millennial spectrum,
are on the younger cusp of what the audience for this movie is.
You know what I mean?
Like being in our, what, mid-30s when this movie came out or whatever.
Yeah, early 30s.
But, like, if you are, if you're like, okay,
you know, we're worried about the continuation
with this franchise or whatever.
Let's get young people in.
One, the whole conceit of these movies
from the jump was, isn't it cool
that all these older action stars
are in the same movie?
So nobody gives a fuck in the first place.
Nobody's fucking coming to these movies
for the young kids in them.
And like, whatever we think about
how great Glenn Powell is, which he is or whatever,
but like, who's coming to the movies
for fucking Victor Ortiz?
Fuck a nobody.
Victor Ortiz, great boxer.
Not much of an actor.
Nobody gives a fuck.
So like either you don't have them in this movie at all
And it's just an expendable's adventure
Which is what people are buying tickets to
Or they're all dead meets
Like Liam Hemsworth is in that second movie
JCPD fucking kills that too
They should be dead meets because I guarantee
None of them are in this fourth movie that's coming out
That is now coming out almost 10 years after this movie
Because this movie is so fucking terrible
Or a third option
Which is probably a better option
They're Mel Gibson's squad of super fucking killers
right it's like ronda riozzi is like his number two and she's like breaking necks with her thighs
and victor artis is punching also like that it is like whatever and like all and they it's young oh my god
it doesn't get young bloods how we're going to beat him and that could be Gibson's motivation right
is like you're running around the same old fucks look at these new guys that I got or whatever
Mia's Stonewall or what's this guy's name stone banks oh stone banks
Stone bags. So they save Wesley in a very long protracted sequence. He's in the Hannibal Lecter gear in the first thing. He is. The train sequence is the part that I like with the train sequence is the cord that's like ripping dudes in half. Now again, which I kind of want to see. But it's not. You need to be seeing the rips. You need to be seeing the decapitations. And that's what sucks. That's one of the scenes I'm talking about where I was seeing the potential. Where it's like the expendables get this huge metal cable and string it along the track.
tracks and the train fucking nails it.
Nails all the goes by it and the dudes all get railed.
And you're like, yeah, but like a fucking torso here and an arm there.
Snipes even cut some people's necks in this and we just instantly cut away.
And it's like for it's implied.
It's producer brain.
I mean, it's just, it's what has always killed these things.
It's like four quadrant.
We need to have, we have to, that's the Victor Ortizza.
UFC in boxing, two people who love that divorced guys and young.
people, like theoretically.
And I suppose that's what they also thought were about
Ronda Rousey. But like Glenn
Powell, I mean, he's just a good actor.
So I guess that's what your thought process is there.
But it's like, I don't know, man, I'm pretty
sure with things like Creed
continuing and like
the various dipping in and out of
movies that Arnold has done over there. It's like, you can
still get younger people to these
movies without having the fucking
kid hit squad. And like fucking Kellyn
Lutz, oh, we're going to get some of that Twilight
movie. Oh, yeah. Oh, that
one guy from Twilight that like
he's not the best actor or the most memorable
character but he's the beefiest guy
so if you had to pick a Twilight vampire
to be an expendable it's Kellyn Lutz
and didn't we all love his work in the
Nightburn on Elm Street 2010 folks?
Oh yeah, oh yeah, he's a fucking genius.
What was?
Kellen Lutz?
Oh God damn it.
I wanted Cam Jigandad.
I just got, fuck.
Oh, God, okay. Yes, very nice to meet you, Keller.
for Kellen Lutz, press four.
For Cam Gigandit, press five.
I'll get my boxing brain out again, man.
I'm mixing up names.
Who cares about any of these fucking people?
Get Dutnikov.
Get, keep going.
Get fucking Carl Weathers.
Yes.
I mean, Seagal was mentioned.
Seagal definitely should be in this movie.
Apparently he turned it down.
Oh, oh, you're not going to film in Russia?
I guess not.
Unless you're filming in the Russian Federation, man.
I'm not making movies anymore.
Oh, does it require me to stand?
No, thank you.
Romanian Lou, that's for losers.
I need Rupils, baby.
Extra, a Rupert.
Oh, you want me to play the heavy?
I am the heavy.
But, like, you had Nick Cage, apparently, in talks to play Bonaparte, the character that is not...
Oh, I'll step in for Mr. Cage.
No problem.
How was adding Kelsey Grammer to this a thing at all?
I can understand Ford because of Jack Ryan and all of his other roles.
Of course.
I got to tell you, I...
I very specifically remember seeing the trailer for this movie in theaters.
And they do basically the same victory lap thing that they do at the end of this movie for the trailer to show you all the stars that are in it.
And it's like, you know, fucking Sylvester Stallone.
Wush, Terry Cruz, Wush, Jet Lee, Harrison, Ford.
And I remember Kelsey Graver comes up and I went, what?
Like, literally just out loud in the theater.
Like, what the fuck are you talking about?
That has to be a mistake.
I thought I was getting punked.
So we're, we save Wesley, we're in the plane and they're like, you know, there's the funny juggle of what did you do?
And he's like, uh, tax evasion.
But I, the real thing.
Oh, yeah.
Well, he was part of some political assassination.
And we got him out of that whole.
Well, actually, to be quite honest, he was killing kids.
He killed like, he, uh, screw went loose.
He turned into a child serial killer in Albania.
I mean, like literally like 30, 30, but it wasn't expendable.
always a thing. I mean, like, I got the pictures. They will change your life if you see these
pictures. Yo, Sly, what did I say about that? Oh, sorry. Disappeared some children. He disappeared
a few of them. Nobody's saying nothing about murder. They used to call him the Baba Yaga
because the kids would like check under their bed. We're here because I mean, like literally like 40 kids,
a lot of kids. There's a great, like when they're telling like his in the movie, like what the
back story is or whatever. And
Stallone has to say like it was
a botched political assassination
in Swaziland. And the
way that Stallone delivers this line,
it's as if either
Stallone or the character
that he's playing
doesn't believe that Swaziland is a real country
because he goes like, yeah, it was like
this titzap political assassination
in some place
called Swaziland.
And I'm like, that's a real one.
You're a geopolitical operative.
It's like, that's, I mean, that,
you're right. That seems to me, like,
if you are a geopolitical operative,
something about knowing all the countries.
We're going to stop at Candy Land afterwards.
You could get in my drift.
Was he supposed to say,
Asmanistan there?
Because that's the fake country.
We go to later.
And why the fuck is Swaziland sending a prisoner to Serbia?
Is that what's happening?
And there is, like, the thing with the one,
the guy's got like an AI portrait of himself.
behind him. It is so cheap
and it is so shitty. That's like the
warden of the jail I think you're talking about.
They show this dude and like he does have
a single line in the movie but you know he's the big deal
because he's got the portrait behind him.
You look at this dude and you're like
oh, you're an NPC.
Like that's about to be killed.
All of these just are nothing
faceless Eastern European
stuntman. And of course because it's
scary Eastern Europe, Europe, right?
Like, okay, the train goes right into the
fucking prison. You know what I'm saying?
I didn't even think of it.
I mean, I think that is just like all these movies
and sometimes in louder ways than others,
they have to show the right winger some leg.
You know, so stuff like that has to,
we'll get to one line,
but fucking Kelsey Grammer,
which is a howler,
but like the one thing that struck me the most
is at the end of this movie
when they're doing the like show off like,
who's in this movie.
Right.
Each one of the characters
gets their own stupid gun.
Yes, they do.
They get a stupid little digital gun that they're not holding.
It's just in front of you.
Just to remind you about guns one more time.
Just FYI, that is an NFT.
That's going to be worth more than gold for dishing.
Take out your cell phones now.
NFT for free.
Kelsey Grammers is an airplane.
Yes.
Which may or may not contain money.
All right.
Oh, the money plane.
So they go, they're like, oh, by the,
the way we're going right immediately
to another job. And like
Snipes's like, oh, you know, I wanted to go home. I wanted to do this
and that. It's like, no, man, you think you got boosted
for free. Everybody's got to work here.
Oh, there's no plan. We're just going to shoot
stuff. I mean, that's just, I mean,
I just, where are we going? I don't know. We're going to shoot
stuff. We do meet up here
with Terry Cruz as the legendary
Hail Caesar. And
he's got, he's
got a big boat that he's waiting for these
dudes to get on so we can go do
this mission. He's like, oh, we got a kid.
catch up with arms deal
and Victor Mims
whenever the fake name
first.
Frankie Munez.
It's fucking ridiculous, man.
I couldn't believe it
when I read the profile.
Frankie Munez,
successful child actor,
man,
I watch Malcolm the Milder just as much as anybody.
Now,
world famous arms.
How's Hank doing?
Arms deal and tiny race car driver.
You know,
we're just going to,
we're just jumping into
another action sequence.
Right away.
And I just,
yeah,
I mean, like, and that's a thing, too, is that I mean, like, it's, it's been my problem
with action movies for a while, like, A, action sequences are way too long.
Yes.
And there's too, too damn many of them.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
I am not over that first sequence yet.
Yes.
I don't know who half these characters are.
I'm still, I need like a scene of like camaraderie or like, and again, even a, even a planning
scene would ground me.
Well, that's why we got to go back to Rusties, dude.
Go back to that fucking more.
Formulate the plan.
Go over it.
I guess that's sort of a way that the fast.
Furious does it better because they'll take that
moment to be, you know, you got
Vin Diesel. Gotta get a plan, man.
Yeah, exactly. He's going to the safe house. Look at a
couple LED TV. That's what
I fucking love an LED television
set. By the way, this is Somalia.
This is Somalia.
This is Somalia. This is Mugatishu.
Swaziland was where he had the tits up
political assassination. This is Somalia.
Terry Cruz gets, has his problem
and has a really bad back
pain at the end of this, you know, gets shot
in the back. I mean, it's a whole other
big, dumb action secrets.
I will say a whole lot of it.
No, no, we don't have to, but I will say a highlight of it, even though it's like not,
I feel a movie with a bigger budget does this better because you maybe could actually
do it with less digital.
Sure.
But all the shit of like Wesley, or I should say Wesley's stunt double parkour climbs like up to this
little crane thing and he's picking up the shipping container and he's like, hey guys, I got your
ride and all the expendables get in this and like parts of that are cool.
But like if you had waited, I don't.
know, 20 minutes.
Yes.
Just so I could figure out
what the movie's supposed to be
about instead of jumping right into this
because it is exhausting,
but we're shooting a bunch of stunt doubles here
and the long and short of it is
the dude mims or whatever the guy,
this arms dealer, uh-oh,
Sly's looking through his binoculars.
Oh, oh, man.
Oh, I think I know that guy, mate.
Oh, hang out of shaky.
Oh, that's my mortal enemy.
Let me pause before I shoot him in the head.
I just got to give a...
A minute, a minute.
No, not going to shoot him.
The yelling of Stonebanks when he sees him is so incredible.
It's a fucking war cry and he's like firing wildly.
And I think the rest of the expendables are like, what is he doing?
Did he just yell Stone Banks?
What the fuck is that?
Oh, he's finally losing it.
Okay.
This has got to be his last mission.
Okay.
Yeah, it is late in the day.
We should have known before we even got out.
Oh, did you get a nap in here, man.
The CTE, these guys must have forget about it.
Oh, with all the flashbang.
getting thrown off buildings and whatnot?
We do find out later that Stonebanks
wasn't expendable.
He co-founded. One of the co-founder.
So it's... Founding father.
This time it's personal, man.
Yeah. Which is...
Co-founder right there. There's names on the wall.
You better lawyer up.
Because I'm not coming for five percent.
I'm coming for all of it.
It's the 90s. We're going to sue you.
Actually, it's 2014.
Sorry, I left my fuck you flip-flops.
No. Who would be Timberlake in this scenario?
I think it's got to be fuck.
Kelsey Grammer.
Stonebank, it's cleaner.
But so they dispatch of all stone banks, bad guys,
and then Stone Banks on his way as he escapes.
And he has, he has sly in his sights.
And he's like, no, that's not enough.
Then he goes to Terry Cruz
and he's like, I'm going to shoot
I, the most, we talk about
what a fucking psychopath piece of shit monster
this guy is fucking sell this guy up
who kills no one of consequence.
No, no.
It seems like a good guy.
He's got a lot to say, that's for sure.
He shoots Terry Cruz notably in the leg
and the ass.
Yes.
And also, it's the back.
Is it the back?
Because he's got, I thought it was the ass
at first too, because I think that's where
like the sight is when the gunshot goes off.
But his whole fucking chat.
is blown out. Oh, I see. So they're doing like, you know, like pressing out. It does like an ass shot. That's why I was confused. I was like, I don't know. I mean, like, I mean, like, is that the best place to get shot? His ass has two weeks to do. It's the JFK magic bullet at that. If he aims it there and it comes out his chest. Oh, yeah, got him in the ass. And then it took a sharp left and went up into his chest. Just by accident. Whoops. You know, you know, Stonebanks all in general needs to be actually meaner and more evil than the actor playing him. You know, yes. Let's true. Give him. Give him.
some actual weird shit to say
so far as Stonebanks way better
person than Mel Gibson as far as I can tell
generally speaking yes
he's a connoisseur of the fine arts
I've heard some stories that don't seem
good about him but you know generally
speaking I didn't get to see that file
on him that yeah
Stallone's passing around I think that Stonebanks
couldn't actually get bookwork with
S Craig Zaller actually like I think that he's too
good of a guy yeah I mean apparently
he did some more crimes that
the Hague is going to be involved
Yes, that's, we learned a little later.
But what is that these days?
We all do war crimes.
Isn't that going to be most people who own banks at this point?
War crimes?
Yeah, I think they all go to the Hague, right?
Any major bank who, anybody who runs it, okay things, I think they all go to the Hague.
In a just world, perhaps.
Well, that's what I'm saying.
Find me a banker going to jail, dude.
I don't know about that.
Let's not about the expendables world.
We'll see.
Yeah. Well, the Wesley steps can go work for a bank and then you put them in jail as you'd see a banker we'd go to jail. But yeah, I do love, it is kind of a supremely nice fuck you that Stone Banks gives these guys just drops this missile on them. And they all go flying into the river. Yes, the classic when the explosions, the force of the explosion and you're not actually going to be hurt. You're fine. It's like getting a gentle warm breeze. Right. You get pushed into the nearby body of water, which happens.
happens to Stallone twice in this fucking movie.
Yes, you're right.
Twice later on the bridge. And we get a little
saving private Ryan screech noise because
a post bomb, right? Is that here?
Yeah, yeah. You get this. It's saving private Ryan.
Stallone's holding this use. That's at the end.
Oh, that's at the end. But like the,
the, the, them around the body. It is like Giovanni Ribisi
you got to fucking lose it. Oh, yes. And, and, but
it's funny because that is that scene. But all around them
is 9-11. It's all ashy shit everywhere.
They're still on there.
It's 2014 and you're still doing that shit, man.
Absolutely.
You got to do it, dude, because if you don't, then all your fucking, your voting block's
going to forget.
And it's very unclear.
It seems like they take him back to America.
They do because I was just, that was my next thing.
That's exactly what they do.
This dude gets fucked up in Somalia and they're like, you know what?
Airlift him to New Orleans so he can be at Parrish General Hospital because we got to be
down the block at Rusties, our favorite Nalans hang out.
You look me in.
Do you trust a Somalian doctor?
You look me in the eye, you tell me.
Hey, fuck face.
I saw Captain Phillips.
Fuck that shit.
Listen, I just looked on my phone.
There is no et tufei in a 60-yard radio.
If I'm going to be at this guy's bedside,
I need some etufei, I would like maybe a bouffalada sandwich a little bit.
I'd maybe like Mickey worked aria prize his role.
Oh, he's not doing that.
Okay.
That's a big mistake.
Yeah.
And that apparently, that voice.
is why
the Boataparte character
exists in this film
just fucking listen
remove one of the kids
the younger people
Sure
whichever one you want
Call and Lutz
It's Keln Lutz
No it's Kellyn Lutz
So the next
movement of the film
is basically the plot
of three to four Harry Potter movies
which is
Oh no
All my friends are in truck
I a very special young boy
And putting my friends in danger
about being so special and the big
bad is going to get him. I have to
push my friends away. I got
to tell them to go home.
And like they quit and everyone's
so mad. It's exactly the plot of at least
three Harry Potter movies. And then
at the end they come back and they're like, wow
I guess I needed you all along
my friends. Expelliabus.
But now I got... Expendium.
I got new friends. I got new
friends like helicopter and
Harrison Ford who flies
helicopter. Big thing that I
hate that Stallone leaves at the hospital with
Hale Caesar here is my lucky ring. With the Super Bowl ring? Yeah, the
trope of like characters having lucky things I
just despise because I think thinking that you have a lucky thing
is baby shit and it's embarrassing. This guy would definitely
have a lucky hat. It's sports brain, you know? Like those guys are like I got to put
on my diaper to watch the Giants. My lucky diaper. The last
time the Giants won the Super Bowl man
that was taking a huge dump in a diaper
I better do that again I don't
mind having like a lucky whatever
thing that's fine I think it is
a little ridiculous if it is
like a limited edition
Tom Hardy jewelry
special made
I don't know what the fuck is
even on this thing I don't know what's going on
by the way with these dudes and their huge
fucking meat cleaver hands or whatever but I'm
looking at this ring and I'm like I think that
would be a bracelet on me
Well, yes. It just looks so huge.
Well, maybe like in Lord of the Rings
that we get smaller if I came to here.
Like Soron takes it off.
It's like, oh, wow, it's huge.
I'll put this on and I disappear.
Like a glove.
Also in the hospital really quickly.
I know we moved on, but Wesley Snipes
wearing a hip hat.
He looks fucking cool right here.
He's wearing a hip hat.
I would be like, so you guys got this.
That guy, I feel so bad for it.
please give me the card I'll sign it
I'm honestly said I haven't been out of I've been in
fucking suburbian prison for fucking
20 years for killing children
I'm you know you know
getting a haircut get laid you know what I mean
I get eating the sandwich gives himself
a haircut with a big old knife
yeah that's great why spend the money
I mean come on or taking a shower
possibly you know what I mean like but he likes to kill
that's what he's been wanting to do all these years
and he hasn't been able to do it he's got to get back
He doesn't seem particularly bummed out about having to go on them.
You're right, because his name is Dr. Death.
And that is screenplay.
We've got to take that again.
Oh, okay.
So we'll put a Doctor Death in now.
We need something better than that later.
Yes.
Also in this scene, though, the return of Trench.
Here's Arnold.
Is he going to blow through?
How is he doing?
Do you like my hair dye?
It's a shade or two more chestnut than yours hair dye sly.
It's due to the cheap.
his shit on the market, as you
can see. I visit him every day.
I hold his hand.
I crushed one of them.
I'm sorry.
I crushed his hand.
Poor Hail Caesar. I feel so
bad for him.
You can tell him, is that his real name?
It can't be.
Also, that's a little stupid.
I know we're doing camaraderie.
It just doesn't ring true that any of these
guys would visit fucking anyone in the hospital.
Well, they do the one time,
but no one's sitting.
Oh, is he dead?
No one's like sitting, you know, vigil on him or whatever.
But when he dispans, so Stallone disbands the expendables.
Yes.
And he's like, you know, it's getting too real out there.
I can't imagine one of you guys dying.
Like, that's the whole point of the whole fucking franchise.
You're called the expendables, dude.
It's not called the fucking inclusivity survivor brigade.
You know what I mean?
Like, come on.
Oh, you know, it's just, I'm just so worried that you got, we're going to do.
We're going to live fast and we're going to be in a hole and no one's going to care.
Like that's something you've got to work on personally.
You need to make interpersonal relationships.
Maybe meditate.
If someone's going to work at your fucking go to your funeral.
Live fast, die old.
Live fast, die old and live a fucking HGH ridden corpse.
Yes.
Totally.
Make it look like you are a fucking old catcher's myth that's also somehow smoking four packs a day as a baseball glove.
I guarantee you when he dies and his family has died at DM.
It's going to be a Psalm affair.
I know, but like he's going to
look like an alien. He's going to be like gray
something with all those chemicals being like
released at once. It's like melt him a little bit.
He'll turn to Bruce Davis at the first X-Men
into nothing. Because he's more chemical than man.
Yes. When I die, I'm going to turn
into a puddle. I can't wait to be jelly.
I've waited all my life to be jelly.
There is a great like in that
right before he breaks everybody up again
just because Arnold, it's a great Arnold. It's a great
Arnold, where he's just like, oh, fuck, what does he say?
Hang on.
It's at the hospital.
He's just like, let me know if you need any help with Stonebanks.
And it's just like, let me know if you would like me to continue to be in the film, which I will.
I thought you killed Storm Banks.
Oh, wow.
Which one was he again?
I'm so, like, checked out of this whole enterprise.
Everyone has such cool but forgettable names.
Oh, yeah.
He's the one who worked for Walter Rockcheck.
Who was Tankhammer?
I just have to work tank hammer in my brain.
I feel like we went somewhere with him.
Was there a real guy named Tankhammer is just a cool thing I made up in my brain?
Don't you have a guy named Toll House?
Toll Road.
Yeah, he makes cookies, right?
Oh, Randy Couture.
I love your chocolate chip cookie recipe.
Toll Road.
He talks as much.
He talks as much as a tall house cookie
in this one, I'll tell you that much.
Fuck him, remove him.
That's, no, dude, kill him.
Kill him.
Yeah, it should be the end of the road
for old Toll, right?
Because I think he got,
he got the Terry Cruz in the second one.
I think he's the one who got injured.
Oh, is that right?
He should have been killed,
and then we could have paid Mickey Rourke or Bruce Willis or Nick Cage.
These guys need to be like the drummer in Spinal Tap,
where it just gets an increasingly hilarious way
the dude dies all the time.
You know what I mean?
Well, but instead, guess who's drummer in this?
Harrison Ford.
Oh, yeah, drummer.
Drummer.
Drummer's in the house.
Bam, bum, bum, bum.
Here he comes, dude.
Just like, what fucking hole did you pull this guy out of for this thing?
It's insane.
Church can't come.
He had self-respect.
Oh, yeah, church had the audacity church,
Bruce Willis had the audacity to fucking ask for a little more money in this movie.
They're like, nope.
And Harrison Ford gobbling up his scraps.
That's kind of embarrassing.
It is.
And it's, I mean, like,
it's, it's like, and the problem with the movie is it's so self-aware because he even says
something like, yeah, well, church, he's out of the picture, which is, you know, L-I, L-O-L, he's out
of the picture.
And then later in the movie, to let you, the audience know that Harrison Ford had fun in the
movie, he has to go, man, I'm having fun doing this.
Yeah, he, I don't know, I mean, this is probably just my own brain poisoning, but I feel like
he doesn't belong in this.
No, he's like, he's like one echelon above these guys.
Oh, absolutely.
I mean, also is, I mean,
Benderas is as well, I think.
Because Benares didn't do a lot of...
Well, he does more of that stuff now.
Like, now he does that.
Yeah, aside from Desperado.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
Maybe now he's in a movie with Stollon?
A sassist.
Yeah.
That's a total state tune.
It's a total state tune.
So I don't know, I don't know.
I want him to be above this level, but I don't think he is.
But I do think that Harrison Ford had achieved beyond this level.
I think they all like having this, uh,
They like being in with these guys, though.
I think Harrison Ford and Antonio Banderas
and everybody who's involved with this
likes the fact that they, like,
they've done the genre stuff.
They've roughed it. They've talked with the stunt men.
They have that kind of relationship. The elder statesmen
kind of coming in. Apparently they also
approached Clean Eastwood for some role. This seems like it would have been more
of his own. He should have directed it.
Oh, God, in heaven, yes. That is what you, if you want.
I'm having a ball flying this helicopter.
would at least, I feel like
has more of an action film pedigree
with the Spaghetti Western's Dirty Harry versus
Harrison Ford, which he still did
I guess Indiana Jones is a
But even the action that Ford has participated
in largely
is way more dominated
by the fantastical realm of like
Indiana Jones Star Wars shit like
or big action movies like Witness
you know what I mean? Like which is an action
film. Rampick. Hollywood
homicide. Random hearts
six days. Six days.
see that now we're getting into the stuff that's closer to what these guys do it's just because
it's harrison for you can call you he can cab it like that he can ask for five extra million
i gotta got to have got to have harrison in the movie man i mean oh my god working girl is amazing
in that harrison we no i mean i love you science fiction movies that witness with science fiction
those people those people aren't around right that's what plan did that take place
what was that movie man where like that little alien sees a murder and like you had to go to like his little weird alien community where they don't believe in electric
well amish people those are really is it Pennsylvania you say they were replicants right
or they had to be robots they're not aliens the robots this guy's always fuck around with aliens
those guys are great every day with this guy alien robot one of the others
and Peter Weir thought of that whole thing all by himself
just up in his head like that
I mean it's amazing he could do that
in the Harry Truman show
it's amazing
he was one of the greatest presidents man
because that president Harry Truman he was like
cue the son
dude I saw a Truman show scared
those shit out of me
I check under my bed every night for a camera
I'm like no thank you
because you know what I think that happens to me
I think I've been
I've talked to Emrick a few times
and we're close
he could be this he could be
Jesus in me it's happening
it's happening now for Sala
he is in the Truman show
he's on that reality show
the family Stallone
he finally did it
like you've seen that
I've seen every episode
how far
proudly how far above
the level of
yeah there's cameras you
because my daughters are hot
does that show actually get
because that's why it's a show
yeah that's it
That's it.
That's the entire show.
And then also he has like three very attractive young daughters.
There's there's,
I think there's like a,
there's a,
there's like five seconds on the set of Tulsa King.
And then the rest is like,
we got to buy a house in Florida because I'm not letting my daughter
move cross country without me being there.
Oh, man.
Yeah. That's weird.
It is weird.
Yeah, my daughter's pretty hot, right?
You like my hot daughter, Paramount Plus?
Oh, yeah.
We're moving the compound.
baby daughter's got to be on the compound at all time.
So the compound moved with the baby girl.
I think there was one episode where it's just like they were going to like the family was like going to Philadelphia or something.
And one of the daughters was like, well, I moved to Florida and I have like I'm starting college or whatever.
I really can't.
No, you got it.
You want to be out of the family?
Oh, Jesus.
And to the point where she actually shows up.
She has to go.
Really?
That's how it is with them, man.
That sucks.
When he jingles those keys, you come like a good dog.
Jinglinglingling, lingling.
Just like Wesley, dude, in one of my favorite movies, I made Expendable Three.
Yes, yes.
Dad, could you stop jingling the keys?
Because in this, it's the dog tags that jingle.
Right.
So, but drummer is like, listen, you fucked.
And there's a little, Harrison Ford gives a little more than zero in this, which was shocking.
There's that line where he's like,
it's your fuck up
up and I'm wearing it.
I'm wearing it.
That's pretty great.
It's kind of nice
hearing him use hard profanity.
Sure.
You know what I mean?
It's not going to be like
my fucking Goddaughters
got me looking for this
time travel device.
God damn it.
Nine years ago,
he looks even more frail
than he does today almost.
Dude,
he does look better now.
I don't know what was going on in 2014.
I'm thinking the stem cells,
the endocrine.
They got it all out there.
Those are going to say glistice is sucking them dry.
Oh, well, I also think like, I could use a few years off me too.
I think he gave a shit about Indiana Jones.
That's why he went to the gym, probably put on some muscle or whatever.
Right.
Old man muscle, absolutely.
But, I mean, I think in this movie he's like, ah, because also very famously, like,
it was like a three to four day window when like Willis pulled out and they needed Harrison
for it.
Yeah, I'll fucking do it.
But you better work in a joke about me coming on short.
notice into the picture. Oh, you already did. Excellent. Definitely got that. I got to talk down to
Stallone, though. That's got to be the key thing here. He's kind of having a ball talking shit to
Sylvester Sloan. You can see this. So his whole thing is like, yes, you know, here's the mission.
Blobbidi-blow. I'm just as pissed off as you are that this dude turned out to be your ex-buddy.
I don't give a shit what his name is. You got to go capture this guy. Bring him to the Hague for trial for
war crimes. And Stallone's whole thing is, well, I fired my whole team. I need. I need a
someone to help me get the new team and we are talking like 25 minutes of this movie is a
montage with fucking Stallone and Kelsey Grammer road tripping it around the country to get these
new recruits but even like I think Ford is like you got like he's like the time is ticking
and then like and Stallone's like man we got no time we got to put team together in no time
in which case let's go to a fucking coffee shop have a list and be like what does this guy do
Okay, cross him in.
Oh, I have quite the history of doing business in a coffee shop.
While we're like getting this crew together, when we cut back to Stonebanks.
Yes.
He's just buying art.
It does nothing for the movie aside from like snooty bad guy by art part of movie.
He needs to be doing something Evel, something sort of like a Mel Gibson figure would do.
Because what, because it's kind of yelling at a girlfriend.
Yes.
Being anti-Semitic to the police force.
Something like that.
Because he has all of the
Like, because that happened by now, right?
Yeah.
Oh, of course.
Way, Pat.
Well, it has.
Yeah.
But he has all of the social status of an 80s villain.
Yeah.
But you don't see him do all the dastardly shit.
Like he's a dude high up in society.
He buys paintings that he thinks are shit, but he's willing to drop three million dollars on him.
Because his babe of a wife gets excited about it.
He's literally got two massive, identical Mr. Burns attack dogs at his mansion.
Yes.
Moscow where he lived.
They need to be set upon Stallone.
Oh, no, he's dogs.
Exactly.
Use this world your building
instead of just tossing it away
and give Gibson some evil shit to do.
Maybe he runs a fundraising organization
for the fraternal order of the police or something.
Yeah. Well, because I think you lose all that stuff
with these modern action movies
because you are filming, like all of these movies,
like the final encounter has to take place
at a fucking burned out former Ugo
Slavian tire factory.
And, like, that's what this is.
So it's like, you can't have any of that.
If it was a thing where it was like, oh, the raid at his house or whatever.
Or like that you can have the dogs and the wife.
The palatial estate.
Yes, exactly.
A palatial estate or a high rise.
Let's do something different than just the factories.
The bombed out village that we've seen.
They filmed the rise of Ultron fucking two blocks up the road.
That's right.
Like, I don't, I mean, like, so we, yeah, we go one by one very slow.
slowly with all of these dudes.
And I couldn't give a fuck about these kids.
We get Glenn Powell first. He's the hacker.
There's not a funny joke, but a kind of annoying one.
Like there's a fat dude behind a monitor.
And they're like, and still, it's like, I don't need an office worker.
He's like, oh, no, he's doing parkour for some reason.
Right.
He's climbing this rock.
He's jumping off this rock base and then using his fucking a parachute to land.
That's how bad ass he is there, dude, because that's an accident.
The parachute is his.
like safety thing. He's just free
climbing like Shatner in the beginning of Star Trek
5 and the rock falls
but he's such a badass that he's got that backup
parachute or whatever. Kelsey
Grammer in this movie.
Yes. As bone apart.
I cannot imagine
that's a two
what Eric is saying. This is an RNCE bet.
I don't think Nick Cage
would have been good in this.
No, no. It's below him. This is way
below. That Kelsey Grammer is actually
exactly who should have been this role
if this role was going to exist, period.
Right.
Well, I think you could do
someone else than Kelsey Grammar.
I feel like if you're doing this.
David Hyde Pierce.
All, no, this.
Always go Hyde Pierce of a grammar.
This, this whole franchise exists to be like,
look at all these action stars together.
Kelsey Grammer does not fit that mold whatsoever.
But he is the part, I think, of the right wing flirt.
Because he does, he does show up in all those movies.
It's just a cheap man's John Void.
Exactly.
Or something.
That would make more sense.
John Void and Heat is essentially what he's doing here,
except for without the character
and with all the good detail in Michael Mastricht.
And also fucking Mel Gibson's already the right wing flirt, you know?
I mean, I guess so.
So is Stallone.
I got a new story about a lot of the past.
So is every single person in the guy.
Essentially all the people.
I mean, I don't know what Glenn Powell's politics are.
Oh, I bet Ronda Rousey's is terrible.
Well, I mean, Ronda Rousey, I don't know that,
but I just, I get some six cents.
You want to believe that.
until she proves me wrong.
Rhonda Rousey,
the problem with her
in the introduction
in this movie
is that like,
do you,
I don't know
if a single shot
of anybody here
was in the same place.
Like they talked about that
with Marvel movies.
Yeah.
This nightclub scene,
like her fighting,
they cut around it
to make it so she doesn't
have to do jack shit.
Like I didn't really believe
any of the fucking fight was happening.
I could do it.
I could do it.
I will say,
you can always do it.
it, Eric. By the way, no, I just thought of someone for Kelsey Graber, Tom Seismore.
Yeah. Sure. Sizmore was supposed to be the fucking, uh, was he? He was supposed to be a stone
fence. Really? Stone banks. Oh, I need a re. All right, listen, give me a list of the biggest
women punchers in Hollywood. I'm looking for stone banks. He's not going to punch a woman in the
movie, but I need, okay, I got Tom Seismore. Ooh, Bell Gibson. I'm getting tempted by Bill Gibson.
You know, Sean Connery.
another woman puncher.
Ladies slap.
It's fucking stone banks.
You thought I was dead.
Ooh, dude, that would be incredible, right?
The gravitas, the fucking
James Bond is now getting in the mix.
Yep. That's like,
that's the line they haven't crossed.
And now two of them are dead.
So you can't.
But like,
and you're not going after.
Connery was probably retired by the name.
You could probably get Pierce in here.
Pierce would have been fun in this movie.
Oh, Pierce would have been at the light.
Yeah.
And he would do it too.
Here's the one that would do.
A sexy dashing villain?
Yes.
Oh my God.
There I got that, Eric.
Mel Gibson's right there.
No, they don't got it.
He was in one of the worst.
He was the last year, that Mermaid King movie.
Ooh.
What is, wait, what?
Pardon me?
He plays the king of a foreign land and the daughter finds a mermaid.
Oh, yes.
And what's this called?
I don't do.
Did you see it?
Of course.
I watched it.
I think I might own it on Amazon Prime.
Oh, one of those like I could watch it now and own it forever.
pathetically, or I can wait a week and
I've been there. I wanted to make sure
you weren't talking trash based on trailers.
No, no, but I'll tell you another thing that I saw
this year with Pierce that was
quite abysmal is the
outlaws. I don't know what that is.
It's the guy, what the fuck is that guy's
name? Adam Devine from workaholic.
It's him
and like he's going to marry his lady
friend and then it's like, oh
they need wedding dates?
No, that's like a day. I need wedding dates.
Terrible movie. Based on a true story.
of dudes christen i know but no um oh the outlaws so it's like oh we're gonna meet her parents
finally uh-huh and it's pierce broszen and i forget the woman playing the mother but they're
both like assassin spy and it just turns into this fucking action comedy nonsense yep it's so
awful and i got to tell you like adam divine in fits and starts you know like on gemstones
whatever it's totally fine i don't have anything against the dude but like the movie asks this guy to
lead an action comedy
and oh absolutely not he has
this is where I noticed it because I think it was like
the longest I've ever seen Adam Devine do
anything sure this dude has
such intense Dan
Aykroyd vibes yeah it's
chilling bone chilling
when you watch him in a movie
where he's the main character and he's because
he's got the same like I'm an adult
with big little boy boy scout
attitude and that's like the Dan Aykroyd
vibe this kid's got
that up the ass and it's
really weird. Make this get a ghostbuster.
Bump him up, dude. Dude, he could
be fucking Jim Stance.
Absolutely. No more Ghostbusters.
Well, they're coming. Well, tough shit.
There's another one. There's artists.
You know what? They should be bust
in Sylvester Stallone.
Dolph Lundgren. Let me go down the list.
No, it's only the expendables that are dead.
So, uh... No, but all these people,
all these aging action stars should
be dead and they will be sued.
Um, but so Ronda Rousey,
we, we, the first expend,
which is expended girl?
What is weird, man?
I don't think we did you expend the girls.
There is that like expendable.
Expendable bells. Yes, which I did see
quite terrible. Right. Because Cynthia Rothrock
is definitely in it. She's like one of the leads.
But that's the point.
Fuck Kelsey Grammer. Give me Cynthia
Rothrock.
But a woman couldn't organize people to be hired for a job.
Let me get you a bunch of guys off this list. It's me Cynthia Rothrock.
Here we go. We're going to do.
What are it is an explosion.
Shivs, X-Spirit. I'm more of a karate fader. You don't want me
talking too much. It kind of sound a little bit like this. No, these guys are
you can't trust these guys. Yes, we're meeting at a fight club. Isn't that
something? Oh, that's when he goes to Vegas. That's the funniest part. So like,
time is of the essence. Fucking Harrison Ford told us as much. Instead of going
to Vegas to find bone apart, why don't you just give this guy a call?
Hey, man, why does you meet me a JFK so we can go to our next flight easier?
Well, that's, I mean, that you would not get,
and this is throughout, even the montages as well,
you get butt rock front and adjusts.
Oh, God.
And, where, wait, wait.
God, come with me now.
Oh, you're talking about music,
not one of the characters' names.
Like, there's a toll road.
Oh, my God, they shot butt rock.
Bat rock.
Oh, he'll live, though.
Don't worry about.
Oh, thank God that butt rock was saved.
I was, I lit a candle last night for butt rock.
I shed a tear for my good friend, Bud Rock.
I did the prayer.
I came to the hospital every day for dearest bootrock.
Wesley Snipes, I think it is very cool.
You were such a hip hat to go pay respect to Butt Rock.
Yes, Church sent all these flowers for Buttrock.
His butt could pull through.
Is that what I want to know, please?
Christmas, give it to me straight.
Will Butt Rock see through the night?
I don't care if we lost Caesar.
What about Bot Rock?
That fucking come with me now song by Congos.
You can't, I mean, it's a terrible song, but perfect for what this should be.
Like, you can't start an establishing shot of Las Vegas and make it look exactly like a tourism commercial for Las Vegas, which is what this is.
Like, you hear this fucking terrible song and it's all these shots of the strip or whatever.
And it's like, you should see sexy couples throwing dice at the table jumping in fountains.
Come on.
Again, you're filming only in Romania.
So it's just, you're just buying clip packages from other people.
Absolutely.
That's true.
So, yeah, they go to a nightclub and it's like, New York City.
Okay, they go to a nightclub, New York City.
It's like, so who, where's the guy?
There's got to be a guy.
Oh, it's a nice, attractive hostess.
He's like, look at her.
She's the one.
And like, she's the bouncer.
Yes.
And like she does.
And I mean, I think that like that's, that's the weird thing.
Apparently Victor Ortiz who we're going to meet next.
Never throws a punch in this movie.
They set up Snipes as like a, a,
And they don't give these guys, or these actors, I should say, what they do, why you want to watch them.
You never see the specialty.
Except for Ronda Rousey, which is actually a good thing.
It's like, oh, wow, she's doing her leg grab thing.
That's the tornado leg drop, whatever that thing is.
Because everybody else I need, like, I want calling cards so I know what they're doing and who they are.
Steve, you cannot, of core, you cannot alienate your core audience.
And part of your core audience are valor thieves.
So they want to be able to say
I'm a knife expert
No I can't do anything but the knife
No, that's true
I'm a kicking expert
I oh my leg is hurting
You gotta make sure that all the dudes
that are competitors
on that knife show you watch
Can watch this movie and be like
Absolutely
How are you doing with that?
And then meanwhile they all fucking
have to go to the fucking medical tent
halfway through
Oh man I bet it never got this hot
when the expendables were fighting
So Steve, how's that been?
How's the knife show goes?
Is that still on?
It is.
On and off that they...
Forged in fire.
Forged and fire.
They changed hosts.
I was a little...
Really?
I was a little miffed by it.
Would they get in there now?
Donnie Jeffcoat?
No, just another big, big meathead dude.
But the last meathead, I liked.
This meathead not so much.
And I think the last meathead might have quit because he might have been a man that might not want the vaccine
possibly.
Oh, sure.
Also, he's wanted for questioning on Jan 6th.
I mean, just fucking get
it seems like David Spade
and Jeff Foxworthy
will do it for cheap
Just get them in there
You might be smarter than a knife
You said that's a tang
But she, you know
She knocks these dudes out
She's in
And then like we have four to five jokes
Like yeah
Why don't you try doing that in a dress
Oh yeah
No you think she's good now
Watch our fight
Without the high heels on
Oh yes
Bonaparte
Since phone apart, since you're in this cup, you've got to introduce me to Carrie Bradshaw.
She is so hot, man.
And I like those rider broads.
I love them.
Yeah, she's not an expendable, but could she spend, baby?
She is able to spend.
I couldn't even find her article today.
I was looking everywhere for her.
Nobody would help me.
Everybody said I was an idiot.
But then just like that, I was talking to her.
Could you believe it?
She actually dated Stowe.
I don't know how I feel about dating a girl who used to date Stonebanks.
Did you know her her friend was almost in the Senate?
She's so cool.
Did they have the character run for Senate?
I don't think so.
Because Cynthia makes me remember for governor.
I voted for in that primary.
I was being still out.
Oh, I see.
Oh, yeah.
That makes sense.
So then we go to Arizona to get Victor Ortiz at some like training facility or whatever.
And this is one of the fucking.
funniest things. I want to get the name right because I was like, I don't know what this is.
So they get to this, it's like a, it's a camp or army base or whatever and they go to see
Victor Ortiz who's like boxing really quickly. That's the only punching you see. He doesn't
punch a person. But they walk by, do you guys notice this? They're walking through the camp or
whatever. They walk by this car. And the branding on the car, my eyes had been tuned to them because
like, ha ha, there's a part where Ford Harrison Ford is in a Ford and over.
So I'd been, like, looking at car makes and whatnot.
And he's near a model T-1-1-1-0. T-800, fuck, shit.
They walk by, no, they walk by a car.
And on the front of it, like, where you'd see, like, the Toyota logo or whatever,
it just says, Haval, H-A-V-A-L.
And I was like, what the fuck is that?
And then I had the thought, oh, of course,
not a second of this movie was filmed in America.
And I looked it up.
You better believe that's a very popular Chinese automobile right there.
But just in the world of this movie is supposed to be at an American.
military base in Arizona
L.OL.L. Nice try. And he's
set up, Victoria's he's set up as a
weapons expert, which he doesn't. It's never
even like, so Victorite's
what should we use on this job? All right, I got
this gun and that gun and whatever else. One.
You don't get the setup. It's like
McGruber. You get all these guys, these amazing
experts. And then instead
of blowing them up in a van, they're a hilarious
fan. Better option. Better option.
Actually has a kill count.
And here instead, they just get captured
by Stonebanks. It's just like, well,
Stone Banks is just that good.
Callum Lutz is the last one
and the most annoying because it's like,
oh man, I will be turning this franchise
over to you, Mr. Kellyn Lutz.
Because it's like, I've been there.
Oh, let me guess you lost your friends in the desert
and nobody gives you shit.
We've all been there.
Yeah.
Well, not Kelsey Grabber because he was,
you were on cheers at that point, right?
But yeah, you weren't with us in Nicaragua, man.
You were on cheers at the time.
But you were in a successful TV series.
Now, Kevin, what were you in that was successful?
I was a glittery vampire in the Twilight movie.
I was one of the main.
It was glittery vampire number five.
You can't pass the torch to nothing.
Like, I know Scott Atkins was in the last movie
as of number two or something.
He's the number two to Van Dam.
Right.
And he eats shit in the movie.
But if you're making a movie about passing the torch,
pass it to someone who's actually started in an action film.
Yes.
Which I know they're few and far between now.
Right. I mean, also, what the fuck are you talking about pretending there's passing any torches?
That whole notion is just garbage anyway. So like, remove it from these movies at all.
It's barely in the movie. Like, just don't even make him. It's barely in the movie. But of course, the fucking 10 minute bar scene at the end.
We're going to see the kids not only get the expendables tattoos, but they're going to do karaoke, this, that, and the other thing.
And they'll never be heard from again.
Can you imagine you get a new job and you're like, I fucking love this job so much.
I'm going to get a tattoo of the group on my arm.
And then it's like, oh, what?
I'm never going to be called for a job again with these people.
Fuck that.
Is it because I spent my entire first week tied up in some basement?
Oh, I guess so.
Just hanging out with Mel Gibson yelling at me.
Well, I mean, that's the Lord of the Rings folks did.
All with the exception of John Reese Davies.
That's right.
He did not get the L-O-T-R tattoo.
That's right.
because he wouldn't go to heaven
that should have told you something right there
exactly you should have known right there
yep yep Vigo should have had him
get kicked in the face by a horse
what was that tattoo anyway
was it like a big old hongking dragon
or something on their back
everyone has a big
smi
they all went out
got smowg on the backs
oh you just took a week off
it was a long time
it's a painful tattoo
So Ford is like, all right, you know, you're going to be trying them at the Hague with your new team.
You go get him. No killing now. This is an expendables movie. No death. Thank you very much.
That's came down from the top brass PG-13. It's so funny this sequence.
You kill anybody, Jack Valenti'll have my ass. Because you see. I'm wearing it. You see like Stallone's like aviation business that he owns or whatever. And maybe that's,
a cover, but there's like this, this is the Ford car in the parking lot and it's like late at
night, Stallone's got some go bag and he puts it in the car and then Ford is in the backseat
and I'm like, one, how long was Harrison Ford waiting in this car? But then also he does the whole
thing about like no killing and go get him, try him at the hague, blah, blah, blah, here's the
war crimes folder, picture a bunch of dead kids, have a good night. And it's one of the funniest
most befuddling parts of the movie is Harrison Ford gets out of the car and literally just walks
out of the movie
like you see the establishing
shot of where we are
it's the middle of nowhere
it's at night
there's no other cars around
this character literally walks off
into the desert mr ford
really quick before you go
one of my favorite sci-fi movies
you were ever in
that regarding Henry
oh man
when they erase his memory
brain damage
yeah whatever device they use
man it was great
what about Sabrina
she was an android
you're like it was about you plow on an android i loved i loved annette bending as your alien translator
regarding henry she was she was amazing in that picture oh man there was that crazy
sci-fi movie what lies beneath where you may or may not have drowned your robot wife in
a bathtub oh god who could forget morning glory oh you forgot morning glory
that's okay that's oh okay rachel macadams no okay that's okay that's okay that's okay
American graffiti, you turned into that car, right?
Like a transformer?
You were, like, turning into a race car.
Like, all those boys were really scared to, like, go to Vietnam or whatever.
But then you were just there as a transformer?
Yeah, cool as a cucumber, because you know you could just turn into a car, drive away.
You can turn into a car.
Then Wolfman Jack's not giving you any trouble in that movie.
No, yeah, the sun's going down.
Why do you ask?
So they go, well, when we get here, why don't we just steal a scene directly from
Ronan real quick? Sure. You're cool. Everybody cool. Still. Well, look, hey, you got to take a
break from just straight ripping Mission Impossible movies. Yes. Like just. Especially Mission
Impossible three, oddly enough, because there's two parts in this movie that I was like, where
have I seen this recently? Both of them are MI3. There's a part. The bridge for the Mel Gibson
breakout is the, yes, exactly. That's the bigger one. But then there's also the part where
they're in the van. It's when they're
breaking into the facility. I think when
they start the toilet, the
sewer thing. Yes, they go under
the, like through the van
into the sewer while the van
is hovered over the manhole.
Someone who was writing this movie
was just had fucking Mission Impossible 3 on that
day. I mean, Tom Cruise has
the team. I should have a team. He gets
some new people occasionally. What's wrong with
me having a couple? Yeah, I know Rhonda
can't act, okay?
Look, it's just nice to, you know,
include people okay cynthia wouldn't fucking return my calls
but yeah it's the the scene in front of the hotel where we
cause a disturbance and then we see everybody react with their guns and
we're taking photos of them oh yes that's right because this is where
yeah we're doing there's a little bit of like
reconnaissance it's reconnaissance which like this is for a different movie
yep kind of but like ronda walks out and like a sexy dress or whatever
and like make some dudes turn so then it's like we can get pictures
And then, like, Victor Ortiz, like, fakes hitting her with a car or whatever, and they're like, oh, yeah, oh, that was a good performance there.
And she's like, yeah, that was a little too close.
I would have had to kick his half.
You're just like, whatever you say.
Yes, Luna.
Yeah, get in the car.
Luna, that's what it is.
Yeah, yeah.
Thank you, Luna.
And whatever.
And then we, it is kind of amazing that we get back and like, well, what's the plan?
Well, what we're going to do is we're going to get a bunch of guns and we're going to shoot
everybody and then they're like
what if we made an actual plan
and they do and this is where like
this is the third one of these
all right yeah no one
number three and I mean absolutely
no one in the theater
or VOD or the
divorced dads buying this on standard
deaf DVD for $3 at Walmart
oh man I ranted so much
about that that I totally lost
it's all set up
I remember I remember
I remembered it because they
have the line where she's like, yeah, that would be a good plan if this was
1985. And I'm like, we all, everybody watching this movie understands what the thesis of
these films are, which is watch all these dudes that used to do stuff 30 years ago.
Yes. Not do stuff now. Yeah. But it's just like, I don't need that kind of shit.
It's like, this is the third one. If you have that joke in the first one, fine. But literally
everyone with eyes on this movie
is in on the joke.
Well, then, you know, you're alienating.
You're divorced dads.
Like, that's not fucking funny.
Yeah.
I was great 85. I'm great now.
Yeah, they're trying to like give these characters
literally anything and they just can't do it.
It's just a bit and do it.
Like what they wind up doing is like
insulting what people like about these movies.
So it's like, you're making me hate these kids.
And I wish for death upon them.
Well, because that's another part of your audience is the people who hate fucking the young.
They fucking hate them.
And it's just like, oh, man, I'm going to have to clean up after the kids again.
Should have seen this coming.
Instead of.
That's the thesis of this.
Why are you replacing all my expendables with people in their 20s and 30s?
I was replaced the people.
That Rhonda Rousey, she shouldn't be making jokes like that to Sylvester Stallone.
She should be asking him out for a nice steak dinner and that let him pay, but then secretly pay for.
him because he doesn't have enough money
because that bitch wanted alimony again. Oh, no.
She wants to have sex with a helmet
doing the weird
demolition man style because she's young.
Well, the funny
thing is Glenn Powell totally hatches his plan.
He's like, all right, I'm going to hack this fucking building
and you guys are going to go in there.
Hack the building. Yeah, hack the building. Start with the building.
Then you can move on to hack in the planet. But right now, we're going to hack the
building. And it's like just, it's a crazy, like, smart
extraction thing where it's like Glenn Powell's hacking all these door locks. So he's literally
like forcing Mel Gibson to walk a certain way on the floor plan. They get him, they get him
in the helicopter and they get out of there. And when things go tits up, it's because of
Sylvester Stallone's character. But you danced over one very important part. Robert Davy.
Oh, right. This is his scene. Yes. Hey, here's another right wing flirt. Yeah, exactly. This guy's
psychotic world-renowned psychotic
flogger. Yeah, you got to check out his stuff. I used to watch. He's
probably got some killer stuff on the Biden impeachment inquiry. I guarantee. I can't
wait to see all that data. Oh, man, the dash cam monologues
that he's been given about Biden and Hunter Biden's. Oh, my God. Right.
Because he directed Hunter Biden's laptop the movie, right? He knows more about
Hunter Biden's dick than I know about my own. I guarantee it. I guarantee it. Well,
if you look at the vein there,
It's clearly a hundred vibe.
He's now, this is because I feel like he's in this, again, you know,
tickle the right wing, nutsack and whatever, but Rage Serbeja had better things to do.
Right.
Because this is, it's like, oh, the big dealer guy that, you know, Mel's character is meeting or whatever.
I believe he's even mentioned to be Albanian.
It's in Albanian.
He is.
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
Rage Serbeja was just fucking busy that day, I guess, because here's Davy doing this accent.
Oh, but I mean, if.
you're doing that, I think you even said this earlier, Eric, he's got to be the general
in, in asmenistan. If you, if you're fucking waking up Robert Davy, he's at least a face that I
remember from things. And then maybe he has like two cool, two scenes. Maybe he tries to torture
somebody and then he gets killed. That's right. I want to be clear on this. I don't want any more
Robert Davy. I didn't want the first helping you gave me. I prefer not this. Chris. I just thought
of another right wing flirt that would fit right in here. Dennis Miller. No, but that,
but good thing.
That would also work.
John Woods.
James.
James Woods.
Oh,
100.
Oh, man.
I'm all up.
I can't do first names today.
And in char.
In terms of.
James Woods,
yes.
Of star power.
James Woods just blows Robert Dobby off the fucking board.
Executive producer of Oppenheimer.
Yes.
Yes.
It's amazing.
Was he really?
Yes.
He had some weird thing with the right.
He'd be like,
I think he got the American Perthian.
Very early.
Interesting.
That's always the smart thing.
Like a fucking biography comes out.
You buy that mother.
fucker, then you make the money
later. Now I'm weirdly winning an Oscar
probably. Because you know he wasn't
allowed anywhere near that. Oh, of course. That's, oh man. That might
cost them the Oscar. To avoid having James Woods up on
that stage at the end
of that night. They might actually
fucking call it. Well, I was going to get up there and I was
going to insanely pontificate, but they don't want me to be there anymore. That's their
fucking problem. Why can't I record
myself while I'm up there? Why can't
I have the little camera in front of me
while I make this speech. He would get up there and he would
just do what Mel Gibson did when he was
pulled over. He would be the exact same
speech. But yeah,
so Robert Dobby has like three lines
and like, we also.
Gorin Wata, by the way, he is doing
draculian accent. I would
I'd buy him more of a dracula than
a man of power.
The, we also missed
Antonio Banderas shows up
during the montage.
During the montage, we first are
introduced to, what, Pallip
Silva. That's
what he, that's this fake name. Galgo.
Gallo is the real name.
And he's having a great time and he's good in this movie
and he's fun in this movie. Because he's an actual
actor. Yes. He knows.
He actually, it's like he's
has the one thing none of these dudes
have, which is like, it's actually
if you're like lower status in the scene,
that creates tension and people
will like your performance. Like you know what I mean? Like,
but wait, I got to be Mr. Alpha dick in every
fucking see.
If someone's lower status in a scene with me,
how are we going to be wiggling, wagling dick?
That's right.
It's me.
Also, Dolph Lundgren.
I shall also be alpha static.
Yeah, that's right.
I'll be alpha status as well.
Yep.
No one's going to kill me.
Hi, I heard you're handing out alpha statuses.
So we'll all be in the same scene.
All of us, the exact same status, the exact same temperature, saying cool things.
That's right.
Then none of us can die.
So, yeah, it's lie and the other for me to participate in the movie.
I'm registering alpha status for me,
whiskey, Lulu, and Schnelli.
That's right.
And don't forget Jet Li, my other pets.
Dude, what is going on?
This guy in a box somewhere.
I don't know what is going on with that part.
I like that part.
I'd like press, I'd press to watch more, by the way.
Oh, yeah.
But, no, Bandaris as an actor, is like,
I would be the funny one.
I would be more of a clown for everyone.
Yes, exactly.
And it works.
It does.
It actually, it's a brashire.
of fresh air because he's energetic. He's more energetic than the young people in this movie.
He's completely unconcerned with coming off as cool in this movie. And in a movie where literally 99% of the cast is obsessed with looking great and awesome and being the best. Yes.
That's his philosophy on the character is exactly why he's the best part of the movie. You know, I was stationed in Benghazi.
Oh, dude. And he do get that though. Hillary Clinton is the only real evil laugh. And yes, I used Ambassador Stevens as a
bullet shield.
It sucks that they just
explicitly just do it.
They say, did Davy do a pass
on this script?
I want the fucking names.
I wanted to just do it.
As my good friend, Charlie Daniels once said,
Benghazi ain't going away.
The devil went down
to Benghazi.
I was the only survivor.
And how I did that is I took part
in the raid.
I killed the
guy from the office
and then actually the other guy from
the office. Dude, do you
know, did everybody catch it?
No, what? I don't know. I didn't
see that. Do you know, no, no, no.
In the Bengals, when he is admitting
to the Benghazi, he names the
guys he was in Bengazi with.
Oh, yeah. Did everybody? Oh, I
know one of the, Mingo.
One of his dudes is Mingo.
Ningo. Ningo lost his life
in Benghazi. That's terrible.
Oh, no. Oh, wow. Hey, I
and I got some terrible news.
Mingo's dead.
So when I say, oh, Mingo, it's in his honor.
And you can't even argue that it's just a coincidence
because one of the things that they have been there's explicitly saying
is that, like, oh, and the attack happened
and help took so long.
You're like right there.
You're like, oh, I know what you're doing.
Yeah, I was listening on the radio here
and you get all fucked up.
I wasn't coming though.
How was junkers?
Ziski in there. Is he helping you out or what?
I just, I gotta believe, I mean,
I know that they wasted
millions of dollars on a trial. We should have
another one because that one will have
the real facts. You know what? The first
one? Yeah, I get it. But the second
one, the facts would definitely be
there, man, smoking guns out
the ass. That's right, because Ben Gassi
ain't going away.
I would love, like,
Bend Arras is reading that, like reading the
script and just look somebody's like,
you guys have a real problem
him with that for some reason.
How are you so hung up on the Benghazi?
It's funny that Benghazi never went away,
but you know who did?
Charlie Daniels.
Oh, the devil finally took that guy with him, dude.
He's playing a flute or whatever the fuck.
But a flute?
Fiddled?
A fiddle.
I honest, this is the season of my cognitive decline.
Speaking of sundown, dude.
I've got a lot going on and it ain't good.
We got to start recording more during the day, dude.
After 3 p.m., you're fucking toast.
Dude, it's done.
They put, they put Gibson in a van, and this is when he really starts monologing.
Right.
I would say too much.
Oh, would you now?
And it's just like about the nature of evil and blah, blah, blah.
Oh, boy.
How many people did you kill today, James?
Oh, sorry, I was watching Gold that I was, right?
How do people did you kill today, Barney?
Well, this is, I feel like this is also why, I feel like he kind of, Mel Gibson got in his head that, like, he was going to make a statement with this.
Sure.
I think that's why he's also doing that art scene
rather than just being like,
here, execute some guy that Stallone knows or something
to actually get you.
Because it is for all of this shit,
every monologue he has from here on out,
sounds like it was lifted from some letter
that he sent to all these people he felt jilted by
after the call came out.
Like the AMPAS guys,
like all these fucking letters that he's like,
I have these,
I'm going to send them.
And his marriage was like,
absolutely not. I have S. Craig Zaller on the phone. He's going to give you a picture. Come on. Don't
do this to me. Dude, he's like, he's saying all that shit about like, you know, how many guys have you lost over the year, Barney? This, that, the other thing. And he's like, oh, now I see you got these new kids here. They're the deletables. And I'm like, will you please give it a rest? He says the term meat chest.
Oh, I would know, meat shirt. I'll open your meat shirt and take your heart out and shit.
know it to you, yeah.
Your meat shirt.
Your meat shirt.
I mean, I guess if you've killed like hundreds of people,
everyone's wearing meat shirts and meat pants.
Yeah, that's true.
I got to go meat shirt shopping.
This is a meat knit hat, you know?
Yeah.
I poop out of my meat pants.
Would you wear, no, seriously,
would you wear another human's flesh like in pants or a shirt or otherwise?
This sounds like you're saying yes and you just want to see if one of us
is with you. Here's, here's the one time I would do. Oh, here we go. The one time.
All right. I have been kidnapped by the Sawyer family in rural Texas, the Texas chain.
That's short. Happens more than you think. And I realize that like they're having a big like weirdo party that night where they'll all be wearing skin suits.
Got it. Sure. In order to facilitate my potential escape from the evil house, I would don a meat suit to get out. I mean, you don't want to look like an asshole.
I want to be on theme to a party
Yes, if you go to a white party
You're not going to wear a red paint
Now, no, faux pa for wearing a leather face
You know, like wearing a human face
Or is that
That's taken
Yes, I know, that's your take you.
You walk out of the dressing room
And you've got the whole meat suit on
But then you also got the mask on
And they're all looking like, what the fuck?
What the?
You know, that's leather's thing.
We don't do that.
I'm wearing an old man's chest as a vest
But leather is the only one that wears the mask.
You stole his whole fucking flow.
you did it right in front of him
great now he's crying
why couldn't you just take a tongue and turn it into a tie
tongue tie oh yeah good
Colombian necktie dude that'd be nice
but something something
it's a GPS tracker time to rip off Mission
Impossible 3 I didn't even think about
looking on his person for something
exactly Glenn Powell
Glenn Powell plans and executes this
fucking extraction to get him
Ronda Rousey fucking zaps them in the face
with a stun gun, which is great.
All the kids do it perfectly.
And then it's like, oh, man, what's that beeping sound?
Is the toast done?
Uh-oh, GPS tracker.
I always smell birded toast for all sorts of reasons.
And wouldn't you know it?
Here's a helicopter that fucking launches a missile at this van,
and it flips over on a bridge.
How dare you?
Yep, yep.
And what do you know it?
The force of the explosion sends,
what's his name, Barney Rubble?
Barney Ross.
Barney Ross. Might as well be Barney Rupple.
It's just as a deli.
Barty Frank.
Barty Frank goes flying into the river,
nipples protruding, very disrespectful.
Yeah.
And I mean, and then Stallone, obviously,
God on Earth.
Sure.
Walks out of the water,
instantly kills a bunch of guys.
Judy does the gunslinger.
I'm hitting the hammer.
It's kind of cool.
I always wanted to do that to a couple guys.
One of my favorite parts of this movie,
I think it's happening kind of around.
now, which is the other expendables who've been
fired, all trying to
like, I guess like the idea
of like they need male
friendships, but don't know how to, like,
Randy Couture at this bar, watching
this Cialis commercial
across the way of these dudes
like cheering or whatever.
Like, dude, just join a fucking fantasy
football league. You don't need to murder
anybody. But do that,
Randy Couture here,
can you kill people in a fantasy football?
Yeah, exactly. Because that's what makes
me want to live life is the murder
of other people. There is
Wesley's doing a castaway riff
where he's definitely sleeping on the floor
he's got a shitty motel and he's
not in the bed
because they just leave them right? Like Barney
Rubble or whatever his name is gets on a plane
and goes back home. They're fired.
They show up at the... I don't want to
hurt my friends. Voldemort's going to
get him. If I let them come with
me Voldemort's going to get him.
They show up at the tarmac or whatever
like when the mission's going to go and it's kind
like that's later that's that when they when when he goes back no it's but no no no it's before the
kids get kidnapped it's before they even go oh right they're getting ready to go out and all the
all the old timers show up and they're just like like little puppy dogs is like can we please
go on the mission and there's like some dick waggling here between like the the old and the young
but then like Stallone literally just leaves them there at that point and yeah then we do get this
I'm trying to think oh uh Lloyd Christmas or whatever
Mr. Christmas. Lee Christmas.
He's watching TV and like
he gets so mad. I'm going to throw my knife
at the TV. That's how upset I am.
Yeah.
I don't even know what
Dolph Lundgren's doing. Just sleeping
in a hyperbaric chamber, I guess.
Hey, do you know this guy has
a PhD? Fucking weird, man.
This guy is just,
Dolph, he's not in the movie.
He's just not in the movie. He's just not in the movie. He has
a sore loser t-shirt. That's the most
that's the one thing I remember about his character
It'd be cool if he died in a heroic
blaze of gunfire then
You know what I mean? Like it just
That would be something. Anything would be something.
But so now, yeah, Barney goes back
to America and then Harrison Ford's like
Man, why do I keep hiring you?
I mean, I'm the CIA.
Don't you think I got better resources than this?
Guess not. I got a kill
another president tomorrow. Let me ask you
something. The mosquito coast, those
things, they're aliens.
Those are a pretty big scary machine.
They were like eight feet tall.
Did you watch the movie?
No, he was you.
You were from Buenos Aires and the bugs were attacking.
I thought it was one of the greatest heroic performances I've ever seen.
I mean, you're supposed to be on his side the whole time.
I agree with you.
I think he's a good, smart guy.
I also love the conversation where you were a guy briefly in there,
but that movie's about listening to the robots talk.
Yeah, all these robots, man.
You're catching them on an answering machine tape
or something. And then you're working
for Robert Duvall in that movie, and I'm
pretty sure he was a robot, too.
I really loved your movie.
I believe it was clear in present
danger, wherein Ireland
in a sci-fi future
tears itself apart.
That is, I mean, wow.
And I also loved that other movie, Patriot games
about the drug cartels.
It was phenomenal.
of those movies, your wife, who was
maybe an alien, is giving
you shit about having a dangerous job.
Oh, my God. What is it
to be married to Anne Archer?
Is it nice to you go home, have a
Colista who? Is she an
alien in real life?
All redheads are aliens, right?
That's what I assume.
Coole of the Madman lady?
The idea of Ireland against
Ireland kept me up at night.
It was post-apocalypse.
They had laser guns.
Can you imagine if Ireland was ripped apart like that in real life?
That would be so fucked up.
Or even existed at all.
Whoa.
So, yeah, now it's like, I'm going to go back alone.
I'm going to get them all alone because I told my oldest friends to go fuck themselves.
And you're like, all right.
And then as he's like getting ready to do this, loading up his ear.
He's in the cockpit singing, my friend you share you, they can't kill anybody.
But they want to now.
And this is...
Excellent.
Can't wait for your album.
This is where Banderas comes back
and he's like, do you have
no one here? I am the
only real expendable left.
He's basically playing
a human version
of the fucking cat.
He is. And I just having watched
Puss and Boots 2 recently, I was like,
yeah, this is the same thing. Because I
think what it is, is this is just what it sounds like when Antonio Banderas acts with like energy
and enthusiasm, little goofiness. And that's a great point. Were it not for the accent,
Sylvester Stallone, best pick for live action Shrek. Oh, definitely. You get rid of the accent.
Sure. You want somebody to sound like an actual honest to God ogre. Stallone's your man. He's got
the voice for it. Could you get him in the makeup and everything and then just have Mike Myers dub it?
Maybe. And it's like, you know,
physical performance by Sylvester Stallone
voiced by Mike Myers.
Hey, you know, mesh the thing.
Hey, Toll House.
Or whatever. I love your cookies.
By the way, just stopping some tweets.
We did mix up cleared and present danger and Patriot games.
I was trying to make a joke of that.
It's the other way.
That's right.
The IRA is in Patriot games and the Colombian is the clearing.
We're mixing up a lot of stuff.
It's okay.
Folks at home, this is not a thing that you should be learning.
from. Harrison, you know it's crazy man? I saw a movie you did one time. Zero aliens in it.
Dude, that Indiana Jones in the kingdom of the crystal skull, not a single alien among him.
There's the first one, huh? Jesus, heaven. Christ, this guy. God damn it. Colista really needed the
new fucking pool this summer. I got a new goddamn expendables three. You know, you get stoned and tricked
by David Blaine and now all of a sudden you're at the expendables three.
That is one of the best clips
in the fucking
get the fuck out of my house.
He's really impressed with it.
He's so stoned in that fucking scene.
It's, oh my God.
Like, they,
they just took down a ton of just some really
just the stickiest,
Icky dude.
And it's like,
why don't I show you a magic trick?
Jesus fucking Christ,
he just bent that fucking quarter.
Colester call the police.
We got to kill a wizard in the house.
I can't imagine.
Rob Schneider stuck with this guy
through all of Judge Dread.
I would have left God
I'm going to call Robb when I get home
Oh my God
Speaking of flirt with the right
Um
Speaking of Judge Dred
We got a call back to that at the end
We do
We got a call back to so many
So like whatever
Long story short
Things blow up
But well Banderas like
Excellent
For like 10 minutes
While he's fixing the plane
Tells him this whole story
Which he does involve bingo
Yeah
Which is apparently the story of Bengazi
And just when he's about
The real stories dude
Just about when he's about to fly out
these pathetic losers come back again
and they're like,
oh, yeah, this time it's more heroic.
It's like, heard you need some help,
but it's like, you know, whatever.
Dude, Christmas is like,
we're the only ones crazy enough
to come help you out with this miss.
That's how it went, right?
closing that
well sounded like the call to prayer
holy shit
that was the friend's theme song
right
all right good
I was like trying to get the pitch
and it was correct
so let's just alone
sings
sings theme songs
such as the friend's song
or
bao do
bab bao da
do da do da
do da da da da
do da be bab bit da
ba da bhae
ha hap
do
Big Band of Paperboy
E.B.T.B.T.B.
you're going to
go
right
to dae
dae
dae
yeah
everybody
da da da da
yeah
bo
pooh
yeah
it's the theme
song
to E.
Bo
Bap
to
stand
tall
on a
wave
everybody
wants
to be
glad
with me
because
is burning
Because you're saying
Again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, da,
Dan, da, da, da, da, da.
Dude, I am pressing, I'm calling up this number
And I'm getting that CD.
Time Life presents.
I would 100% buy this on the two compact disc set
that you're getting for it, absolutely.
You could buy the five disc box set that he recorded.
Roadit, row, rody, rody, keep them, dummy,
me, but hey.
Because she is
dead. He's
paid me.
She's a baby
changes.
Doing the lyrics for that
one, which is great.
Featuring
Dana Kovie.
I'm doing the singing
the theme song
to Saturday night line.
Musical
guess.
Me.
But yeah, so they go.
and I mean this is when the wheels fall off the movie
essentially like because this whole
what should be the grand climax of this movie is a big wet fart
because we go to as Manistan which you've said as a fake place
and this also we're just doing it's command don't
yeah because we're doing oh excellent
we're doing commando because it's a faceless army
that gets easily dispatched
over a series of this is like 30 minutes of nonsense
Arnold did you catch Arnold's quick
commando ref no I don't think I did
Stallone says something at the end of the movie
like, oh, I thought you were getting out of this man
or whatever. And he goes, I lied.
Which is the, remember when I said that I was going to cue you last?
I lied.
Yeah, no, I did.
Because also, by the way, a drummer and trench
bring along Jet Lee because they're going to be the backup
and, you know, they're going to be the fun.
Right. So you actually have Harrison Ford flying a helicopter.
Not actually.
flying a helicopter and he's all dressed up in a flight suit and he's like, whoa, I'm having
fun. Which is hilarious because I completely misremembered this part as Kelsey Gramer flying the
helicopter. Yeah, that would make sense. I mean, there's no fewer than 13 to 14 good guys at this
point. Yeah, it's really tough to keep track of it all. But you do need Jet Lee in there because he's
known for firing guns. Exactly. Like, firing guns all the way. That's what he's good at. I can't get this
I do it a fucking spin kick.
Like that's what I want. Just drop him down a vent
in one of these buildings and you can go kill everyone.
Yeah. Like they at least
know enough in that last movie to have
J.CVD do a split.
Yes. And like he does the things you expect
JCVD to do in these movies. You cannot
I mean, you cannot compare it.
Simon West, the man made Conair
for Christ. Wow. You're right. Patrick Hughes
made garbage and shit and garbage. Oh, I saw that.
And it's a beautiful trilogy.
Because it's now, it's literally just
CG. It's kind of hilarious.
They're all tied up in a build.
All the young kids are tied up in a building.
Which is a burned out casino, by the way.
So we're really switching it up.
So they rescue the kids.
Mel Gibson's like, you fell into my trap.
That's going to explode in 45 seconds.
You know.
Glenn Powell, why don't you touch this computer for 30 seconds?
And then it will turn off.
And the greatest thing is like, oh, wow.
Now I just bought us 45 minutes.
first things first get out of that building like you know what I mean like you just let's go to let's have
the fight in the next building over exactly there's listen we're in a fake ex-soviet block country
there's plenty of burned out shit we can have shootouts yeah just people leave the building and then
go back into it I'm like no no no no no everyone out of the building this it gets so boring around
here honestly and you'd think that shooting shift forever would be interesting but that PG-13 rating
devolves it into nothingness
The body count is really high
I think it's like 300 people die in this movie
but you could not give a shit
No it doesn't matter if I don't see
Like some kind of reaction
Like I have not just they stop moving
Like that just it doesn't do the same thing
Yeah yeah
I miss you're off for me you friends
Wages around the band
Du-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dun's family.
Fuck, I forgot how the step-by-step song goes.
Hey, Gabber.
Green Acres is the place to be.
From live it is life for me.
spreading so far why keep
it ahead and give me an eye got
you said
I would
again buy both of those
CDs in the set absolutely
now that no one's listening
now we can just keep doing this
yes we can keep going
la la la la la
here it's
instrument where I do all the Star Trek
team zone
come on doing the show
perky, me, so first man.
Bida, da da da da da da da. That was
a cartoon. Not just
a movie. I liked a movie, too.
Yeah, but these were, this cartoon was about
the real guys.
Not the fake guys from that
movie, man. The cartoon was a real story.
And I mean, might as well keep talking because
everyone's just getting shot in the head.
Literally nothing. Kill him kills the general.
Yeah. Yeah, that's
kind of something like Mel Gibson gets pissed. He's like,
how do you not kill these guys? And he starts shooting
people at his command center.
It's like, oh, here he is
in the last like 25 minutes
of this movie truly doing a
villainous act on the screen. And it's
kind of great. It's very jarring because
nothing exciting has really happened
in the movie for a while. And it's just that
like, oh, oh, is this how you kill a guy?
Bam. Oh, baby, this is how you do it.
And you're like, oh, all right, that's something.
An international arms dealer
commanding a foreign army is an
interesting concept. That
that's all you get of it is that moment.
And then, you know what he does?
He drives right into a building that's about to fucking blow up.
He's like, I'll do it myself.
And why don't you meet him outside?
Come on, coward, let's fight outside of that.
That building's an explode.
We'll fight, you know, just in the next one over.
Like, this is an abandoned casino.
We're going to fight over in the abandoned hotel.
Like, that's exactly what we're going to do.
And then, I mean, the big, it's Gibson versus Stallone in the, like, pool area of this.
I don't even know where this is in the building.
a fight that has a beginning, a middle
and an end. I could see what's happening
as opposed to just like people
headshotting each other. Although
you know, like in his
Mel Gibson in his head must have been like
you're going to be beat up by
Sylvester Stallone. You're going to get killed
by Sylvester Stallone. Pissed him off.
You got to keep it. You're making Haxaw
Rich. You're making it. Just keep
it in your brain. You're going to make that movie.
They're going to accept you again and they did.
Oh yeah. That and
he were nominated hardcore.
so sorry sugar tits and jews everywhere.
That's nice. I like that. I forgot about Haxall Ridge.
Arnold twice in this movie, and this is how you know, it's an abysmal script with an editor who needed to be reined in.
Twice in this movie, does he do a get-to-the-chopper reference?
It's insane that they do that twice.
The first time is polite laughter.
Oh, he did the thing.
The second time is like, dude, get me the fuck out of here.
Especially because in the last movie, he definitely has the, I told you, I'd to be back.
And it's like at this point, again, we're all seasoned viewers of this franchise watching it.
Like, we get it.
And it's kind of better if Trench is just a character in this movie and not an Arnold meme.
Yes.
Yeah.
But it's all memes.
Like, it's memes all the way down.
Like, even the, I think if you really want to do it, if you could go through this whole movie and figure out every single major scene and set piece is lifted directly from another movie.
Not necessarily better, but some other.
movie and like this end
scene where Barney. Probably better though.
Probably. Probably. Kind of have to be better.
I mean, probably. But like this last scene and this is definitely a better movie that we were
just talking about. When Harrison Ford is at the top and they're all getting into the helicopter
everybody has found their way to the top of this building that's about to explode.
Oh yeah. Rather than somewhere else. But whatever. Whatever do what you want. So they all get on it
and like they're like Harrison Ford, you have to wait for fucking Barrow.
Bernie. This is literally how Harrison Ford escapes the Colombians in clear and present danger.
Oh shit. The drunk pilot was like, I got to go. I got to go. And he's like, no, he's down there.
He's down there. Oh, wow. I forgot that. And it's the exact same thing.
To that I'll just say, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da. Love and married. Love and marry.
Burn are in order.
Oh, man.
And yeah, they just, they have this fight
and it's like, you know,
we got to do the throw the guns down.
We're just going to fight each other.
And then Stallone just fucking shoots the shit out of him.
Well, to be fair, he's like,
Bill Gibson asked a very pointed question.
Because he's like, what about the Hague?
Uh-uh.
Oh, sure.
I am the Hague.
Oh, yes.
That got a laugh from that you last.
Got a big laugh out of me.
That is just stupid.
I kind of like this fight and that ending to it.
I know it's really tongue-in-cheek,
but at least it's not referencing
and get to the chopper twice.
You're right.
It's specific. It looks like something.
Yes.
I could, and it's actually like something
like the 14-year-old boy in me
wanted to see stars.
Cool. Stallone versus Mel Gibson
fighting each other. Like, pinging that off
even a little bit.
And in a way that Matt, that is actually
conceivable is actually interesting.
Yep. No, totally.
Why, Barney, why did you kill?
Why did you kill Stonebanks?
They're going to keep the devil's way down in the home.
I'm learning I really don't know many themes like.
Watch the wire. It's fantastic.
So that's pretty much it. We're back at Rusties.
All the kids got the tattoos for a job they're never going to have again,
which is fantastic.
We've made up,
everybody's just happy to be there.
There's a little bit of a Christmas
and Doc pissing contest
with throwing knives out of dark.
Welcome back to the movie, Wesley Snipes.
Seriously.
This is like 15 minutes.
It's a long grab-ass sequence.
It really is.
We're pad and shit, man.
Because we have to like make everything back
to the way it was like at the start of the movie.
We got to make sure that,
oh, hey, you cool me?
Hey, Toll Road, you cool, man.
Oh, Dov Nunger, you cool, me?
Like, everybody's got to be cool.
You know, sorry,
I'm sorry,
there was three pages of script
that we threw in the garbage.
You had a lot of stuff to do, but, uh,
now did everybody get to go around
the corpse and sniff in the essence
after he stabbed them a bunch of times?
There should have been more pages thrown out.
This movie's two hours and six minutes or something.
It's a lot longer than Star Wars.
90 minutes flat,
maybe.
Even with it being so dull and just like
the buildings just fall.
part an ass man a stand at the end and it's just stupid and boring yeah 90 minutes flat in and out
I might have fucking had a good time yeah yeah it's a total slog it is the longest of these so far I
don't have the runtime on the fourth one just yet oh and by the way hail caesar totally alive and
back at the bar so that's glad he pulled out of that coma it's amazing because they're all like
to caesar like kind of like and then he's just like yeah to me I'm like get the fuck out of the
movie dude yeah oh and don't worry he gives he gives uh Stallone the fucking ring back
The worst part of this whole thing
Because there's like
There's a couple
The kids are talking for a bit
There's two worst parts
One Ronda Rousey
Because I'm still like
You know
If you were 30 years younger
Of course
Yeah yeah yeah
He's like I'd be scared of you
Hey
Hey
My penis doesn't work
I don't know
I just say
It's just it hasn't been working for a while
It literally can't
That's one muscle
That's attribute
I guarantee you
Those testicles are fucking
Long gone
Microscopy
They retired to Florida before he did.
And Kellen Lutz, who I could not pick out of a fucking lineup.
Goes up to Stallone as like, so when do I get to lead this outfit?
I'm like, who are you?
Totally, man.
It is just abysmal.
I always hate that like we're making you the neck.
Because I think that happens all.
Well, they sort of do it with that Hemsworth character, but then the dude winds up getting murdered.
So it's fine because the movie has stakes there.
But there is a similar, like, at the start of part two, where it's like, yeah, it's the new kid, man.
You got to watch out the new kid on the blog.
He's going to have my job someday.
But you're not going to call them the expendable, the new guibles.
Like, that's all it's going to, it's replenishable.
Yes, there you go.
The fucking recyclables, dude.
Absolutely.
That's the end of this very disappointing movie.
Go around the horn here for final thoughts.
Eric Siska.
Yeah, it's not a recommend.
It is the worst of these.
and I kind of I'm fine with those first two.
It's just the PG-13, you feel it hard.
Yeah.
This plot is stupid.
It's just, it's paper thin and just having these kids and doing nothing with the, it's
unfurred the fuck this movie.
There you go.
Chris Cabin.
Yeah, generally speaking, fuck this movie.
I, I don't see much to like here other than having Wesley Snipes Mill Gibson and
Antonio Banderas show off some star wattage, like really be able to do it.
still. Like, that's nice to know.
But other than that, I don't see anything worthwhile
here. I mean, it's Patrick fucking Hughes,
guys. I mean, like, if you've
seen the hit man's bodyguard, that is such
a better movie than this, and that is
a horrible movie. I saw about an hour
of it, and I turned it off. I will say
I am excited for the fourth one, because
I'm a sucker. Right.
I mean, you know, I'll just say
it's the worst of these so far.
See it only if you're
a real head and you haven't checked it out yet.
But just keep in mind,
For no reason, it's two hours and six minutes of your time.
Before, I do have to say something about this fourth one, though.
The trailer I saw, it opens, they're doing like the Domino's thing.
Like, the opening thing was like, I need my expense.
It's like a quote from a tweeter, like someone who tweeted out like, I need blood and guts in my expandable movie.
And it's like, we heard you.
Oh, we're going to get.
We're sorry.
The recipe is better now.
Yeah.
Oh, here's expansion.
for insurance if you do not care for the movie
or if you spill your movie on the floor
on the way to the parking lot
and by the way
I'm loving it. Oh, wrong one.
Oh, sorry. According to IMDB, the new movie
is going to be an hour and 43 minutes.
And it's rated art. You know, they did listen.
They did listen to us, gang.
Yeah, no. It's a no. It's a big no for me
and all the things we just said. I think it's
oh, the kids singing Neil Young. That's the last
in dignity in this movie.
And again, like, it's just setting up stuff that's never
going to happen. Didn't that, um,
die hard? Did they set up his son
to be, did they set him up to be like,
and maybe you'll be the new one junior?
I don't remember if that's the case with the young McLean
boy. Because, I mean, here's the thing. Pop culture
died about 20 years ago and we're just
fucking circling the drain.
Your skull fucking the corpse, dude.
And that's what this is. And every,
that's the funny part. It's like every time
the ironic part is like, every, like,
look at Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skulls.
Like, we know we're going to pass the torch
because prop culture will move forward.
No, it's never going to move forward.
We want the same old fucks
to get older and older and older
and watch them do it.
And then when they finally die,
we'll recast them.
Right, which we will do on this show.
Eventually, yes.
We'll be recasted when we die.
That is going to do it for this episode
on the Abysmal Expendables 3.

We're technically at 11 maybe.
We're off to crunch the numbers next week.
We did start dropping
numbers eventually. Yeah, soft.
This is soft five, then we got saw six,
then you had a saw 3D
