Yesterday we saw a few Cannes snapshots featuring posters and banners for Sly Stallone's mega-manly action blast THE EXPENDABLES, and while there was initially a question of fabrication/Photoshoppery, the image content itself was legit.

In fact, Lionsgate has provided larger clean versions of the two teaser pics, which you can click much bigger below. Above are some character one-sheets that popped up over at the Mad Movies forums. Statham's the knife expert and Li has the big gun? Interesting approach. I like that Stallone's name is partially covered, yet there's no possibility of mistaken identity...

Meanwhile, AICN has a few new candid shots from the set, proving that Dolph Lundgren and Sly will indeed be looking each other in the eye once more.

All I have to say is...when is Jason Statham going to play someone other than...Jason Statham? All his characters and their movie posters look exactly the same!

SWEET
I am so excited for this flick, it can't be bad, really, it can't. Also, the tattoo, a little refernce to Poe? I so badly want to see that film get made, and who knows, with Iron Man himself on board, it just might happen.

They should've stuck with the teaser poster of the guys back, and if your going to credit Li for being in the picture list the rest of the cast. If Li is that prominent I probably wont enjoy the picture as much, hands down he ruined LW4

It was cool hearing the casting news as it was happening... but seeing the posters of the actors kind of deflated that for me. T-shirts? The same haircuts and 'looks' they always have? I hope this isn't going to be paint-by-numbers filmmaking.

Awesome.



But I bet the guys from the The Unit would drop them in a heartbeat. You can't fuck with Coolbreeze.

Sweet posters! But god, please do not ever send me to AICN again...I can't stand to be on that site for more than 5 seconds. It has got to be the most poorly designed website on the web. It looks like some kid's "GeoCities" site from the late 90s.

Couture
Has to be Randy Couture in that 'skull and raven' tattoo poster. Just checked out some old UFC vids. His back looks like Hoover Dam and just as impenetrable.



If I'm right, it just makes this movie more awesome. :D
