New Action-Packed 'John Rambo' Trailer
Filed under: Action, Thrillers, Lionsgate Films, Fandom, Trailer Trash, Movie Marketing, Trailers and Clips
The man known in most circles as Sly Stallone surprised the heck out of people last winter with Rocky Balboa -- the sixth and final installment in Stallone's 31 year-old boxing franchise. It was a slow film, sure, but it reflected Sly's age, as well as the physical and mental spot Rocky was in. Now, however, Stallone is going in a completely different direction with John Rambo -- the fourth and final installment in Stallone's 25 year-old action franchise. Co-written and directed by Stallone (first time he's helming a Rambo flick), the couple of teasers we've been shown so far clearly reveal that Sly is still a lean, mean fighting machine -- and for those who thought he might be holding back due to age or whatever, you'll need to check out this latest trailer (if you can call it that -- it's more like a montage of clips) in which John Rambo is violent as all hell.
And I love the way the film looks too -- there seems to be none of this Hollywood-style hiding of the blood; John Rambo makes no doubt about the fact that it will be a high-octane, balls-to-the-wall, R-rated action flick ... and I don't know about you, but we need one of those. In the film, Rambo is placed in charge of rescuing a group of Christian human rights missionaries after a group of brutal Burmese army men take them hostage. Aiding Rambo on his mission are five young mercenaries -- although I have a feeling our man won't need their help much. Also starring in the film are Julie Benz, Matthew Marsden and newcomer Maung Maung Khim, as the villainous Major Pa Tee Tint. John Rambo is due out this December.

yeah, it has been a long time since a good, kill 'em up action flick huh? Oh wait, there was that other old republican, violence lover, Bruce Willis can do anything more intelligent I guess. Typical.

Looks like Stalone has gone bat-shit insane, and I'm not hating it.

John Rambo rescuing missionaries, hmmmm, the movie going public better assume the missionary position, because there're gonna get f***ed! First Rocky, now Rambo, come on Sly, how many more tasteless, moronic, and totally uncalled for movies are you going to try???
