New Expendables trailer is taking names; kicking of ass to come later

New Expendables trailer is taking names; kicking of ass to come later
The new trailer for The Expendables is basically just a list of the entire cast. But when your cast has this many badasses per square inch, I'd say it's entirely appropriate.

I'm still not convinced The Expendables is going to be anything other than a fun-if-mildly-embarrassing action throwback (which is fine), but the last time the internet got its collective panties in a twist over a picture of this calibre, it was Snakes On A Plane, and we all know what happened to that.

The key to selling The Expendables is clearly making the most of the gigantic cast, which features more '80s beefcake than your weight-lifting mother's meat locker. Stallone is front and centre, belching some mildly ridiculousm quasi-mystical statements ("We are the smoke that gets in your eyes," in which case, quit getting in my eyes, you smoky asshole), while bit-parters Willis and Schwarzenegger are also pushed to the fore, despite only sharing one scene.

The actual scene is shrouded in secrecy, but I heard they discuss the amazing deals available now at your local Planet Hollywood restaurant.

By association, you're saying... Possibly... But then they should have also inserted (digitally, I guess) this old lady from "Stop! Or My Mommy Will Shoot!". She had quite a huge role with Sly. Imagine the trailer. I feel my hair on neck standing. Or not.
