Let’s go Trailer Hopping, folks!

It sucks to be expendable. Unless, of course, you're one of these loons. This is the trailer for the already awesome movie that is The Expendables, a Sylvester Stallone creation featuring a cast unlike you've ever seen before. It follows the story of Barney Ross, the leading man of a group of mercanaries living on the edge. He and his men are hired by this man called Church to go and overthrow a murderous dictator on a small island. However, as the mission goes on, they soon discover that the routine mission has more depth and mystery to it then they could see with the naked eye. Betrayal and intrigue follows.
Standard plot for an action movie. Man A says: Make object B go boom and Man C says: KK, before he gets his knees capped by Man A or D. What matters is that things are going to go boom. And not just by a group of semi known actors lead by a popular actor. Oh no, this entire cast is filled from bottom to top with action stars of the past and now. Here’s a quick list of actors: Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Steve Austin, Mickey Roarke, Eric Roberts, David Zayas, Gary Daniels, Danny Trejo, Charisma Carpenter and last but not least, small parts for Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger themselves. It’s unbe-frigging-believable!
As I said in my tHop for Step Up 3, there haven’t been many defining movies that are the pinnacles of their genre which were huge back in the days. These days, Hollywood actually prefers to remake the pinnacles of the past, see The A-team, or even squirt out another sequel instead of doing something new and original. Well, straight up manly action movies might have been difficult to spot lately, but I’ll be damned if this isn’t going to be the greatest thing since deepfreezed pizza. There’s so much testosterone in this movie, any woman that goes to see it in theaters will immediately grow a pair of balls and a dick, a hairy chest and a sudden interest for beer.
