“Fool me once“, as the say, “shame on you“. Fool me twice, shame on me. But how will we the audience fare on our third time down the action-heavy rabbit hole? Guess we’ll find out this August. Considering how well Captain America: The Winter Soldier did this April we find that studios are continually kicking off the Summer movie season earlier and earlier. But really, that was more of an appetizer as the coming months hold all true tent-pole films – those big budget blockbuster hopefuls looking to hit their critical and financial marks. So enter Sly and company’s third at bat in his ’80s styled shoot ’em up revival…

Sweet 2nd Trailer…The Expendables 2
While we were sorely let down by Sly’s original opus The Expendables the entertainment and America is all about underdogs and second chances right? Case in point. Going for a bigger and badder but still deliciously 80’s era outing, Sly gets the band of bad-asses back together for Lionsgate’s The Expendables 2.

Anyway, lock and load, The Expendables 2 is going in hot… Sly (as Barney Ross) is again joined by Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Terry Crews, Randy…
