Way back in 2010, a movie starring Sylvester Stallone (Rocky II, Antz) came out called The Expendables. This movie turned out to be successful. As a rare treat, we are now being given the chance to see the further adventures of the characters from The Expendables in what is called "a sequel." The name of this "sequel," opening on Friday, is The Expendables 2. As a service to you, we ask and answer every question that you could possibly have about The Expendables 2.
As the doldrums (doldrums!) of August push ever onward, ever forward -- what are we in, the 70th day of this month now? -- it becomes more and more of a struggle to find something interesting to say about the movies. "Why don't you write something about The Avengers 2?," someone suggested. Trouble is, we don't know much about The Avengers 2, apart from who's directing it and when it's coming out. So! Since I'm supposed to write about The Avengers 2 -- even though I have nothing to say about The Avengers 2 -- maybe this is a good time to check in with our old friend, Chitauri Warrior.
"ParaNorman"! Seemingly out of nowhere, this little gem of a movie comes along to break us out of our -- partially heat induced, partially whiskey ind...
Over the next few days, we'll certainly learn more and more about why Mr. Scott made the decision that he made - reports are already surfacing that he had inoperable brain cancer. But, I always assumed that the man who made the first movie that my father and I both enjoyed together had more left. I just always assumed there would be another Tony Scott movie coming. And now, knowing that there won't be, makes me incredibly sad.
Sometimes, movies are based on books. Sometimes, novelizations are written to promote a movie. Sometimes, no books at all are written at all: We're here to fill in that gap.
"He is wearing a blue button down with a red t-shirt under," was the description I received from Mike Birbiglia's publicist. Which was nice, but proba...
