    The next Rambo film

    Nice Stallone interview here - http://www2.macleans.ca/2012/03/06/o...action-heroes/

    I’m dying to do another Rambo. He’s in Arizona on the border. It will involve him going into Mexico. I don’t think Rambo likes Mexicans.

    At one point wasn't the plot going to be Rambo vs a genetically modified big cat? I honesty believe I read that somewhere a few years back

    They were toying with Rambo vs. The Thing as well. It could have been interesting, but likely would have been awful. Better left to comic books I say (a la Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash).

    That having been said, that would make for a good "relevent" topic a la the last ones. The cartels, immigration, how people are suffering in the cross fire, etc. Dovetails nicely into the end of the last one too.

    Stallone has been talking about a fifth Rambo ever since the fourth. Before that, he was pushing for a fourth. The guy has even suggested a Demolition Man 2.

    He's just trying to re-live former glory. While I enjoyed Expendables(a rare new property for Stallone), I fear he's hurting himself with these sequels.

    I would agree. Except I thought #4 was pretty good. Now "Rocky" he can leave be, but I'm still up for one at least one more Rambo

    "Rambo", as it's called isn't a bad film. But along with the prior sequels it just spits in the face of what made First Blood great. First Blood was a film that really made Stallone a great actor(along with Rocky, of course). After that, he's continued to milk every franchise under his belt until it's nothing more than a gimmick. John Rambo used to be an every man. Now he's some sort of R-rated gorehound...

    "Rocky Balboa" isn't bad, either. It's just basically a remake....

    Rocky Balboa is more than a remake, it was at least a decent send off to the series, and it helps you forget the god awful #5

    Get snipes out of Jail and I would definitely be down for a Demolition Man 2

    Rocky Balboa is as much of a remake as Rocky 2. I don't mean to say Rocky 2 is a bad film, but it's obvious that Stallone has made a career out of milking his characters.
