Harvey Weinstein recently
spoke up about how pleased he is with the RAMBO’s success at the
box office and his own desire to see further installments come to fruition down the line, hopefully one in which Rambo waged one man war on criminals running the streets of the USA.
“I like the idea of an older guy kicking ass. Maybe it’s because I’m older, too,” added Weinstein.
Granted, Weinstein is figuring on RAMBO doing $50 million domestically and $100-150 million overseas where Sly Stallone still has a huge fan base. However the droopy-faced action star recently let it
slip to the “Guardian UK” newspaper that this would be the last we see of John Rambo.
“This is the last Rambo just as Rocky Balboa is the last Rocky,” Stallone told reporters. “I can’t go any further. It was a miracle that it even got done.”
Now this statement contradicts several other
statements and
rumors. So what does it all mean? Is that the last time we'll have seen Rambo? Only time will tell.
The Simpsons Movie — Wait for the DVD
Saw this over the weekend and I gotta say I enjoyed it. I do wish it incorporated more of the random charachters and a lot of cameos (the TV show always has guest appearances) but it was still a quality movie. Yeah Homer was right, why pay when you get it on TV but there are some things worth paying for. The Simpson's long iconic run is a fond memory for me as well as many others. Getting Bart and Homer on the big screen is something that should have been done long ago but the wait made it more enjoyable. I'm just glad this had a major release and wasn't a straight to DVD affair a la the Family Guy movie (another great work, which was ruined by not mass marketing it).
