Do we really need a Rambo 4???
 
I think this is a 'wait for DVD' type of movie.

Is that a trick question? Did we really need the first three?

I guess this one ISN'T going to be 'Dedicated to the gallant people of Afghanistan' like the last turgid pile of crap was, now that they are back to being the the bad guys (like they apparently were when they were fighting the Russians that had invaded) instead of now, where the Yanks and Brits have invaded...

:D Chock

Tbh, I've been waiting for this. I miss the good old action flicks of Stallone, Arnold, Bruce Willis etc.

Like Rocky, like the original Planet of the Apes, like a lot of movies, First Blood was an interesting concept, ruined by all the sequels.

I think they should go for an off the wall concept with it...

Rambo, having been indoctrinated into the Mujahadeen way of life, following his time spent fighting alongside them versus the Russians, is now a fully-fledged Islamic fundamentalist.

I can see the trailer now (Engage movie trailer deep voice) This summer, one man, and only one man, is going to make a difference. He's taking out the trash in downtown Guantanamo. To rescue his Muja buddies that everyone else left behind... Cue Stallone soundbite: 'Allahu Ahkbar Muthaf*ck*r' Cue Rotor Blade noise... Fade out. Rambo 7, Rated R.

:D Chock

Yep, not to mention Stallone is 61. Kinda old to be running around the Burmese jungle ripping off heads.

Asking if we really need Rambo IV, is like asking if we really need oxygen. :D

Do we need another Rocky?? "Rocky V and Rocky II equals Rocky VII "Adrian's Revenge"!:lol:

Now that is like asking if we need water to live.:D

An other heavy title that is on the horizon is Die Hard 4.
We've got a new Rocky sequel, will will get a new Rambo and Die Hard sequel.
What more do we need?

Hey, I liked the new Rocky! I could have done without Rocky 2...3....4...and 5...but the new one was good!

I'm not sure about Rambo. I may be a chick, but I can get into some pretty heavy stuff (current favourite movie - Apocalypse Now) but I dont know that I can take some beefed up guy killing stuff for the heck of it.

EDIT
Wow, my avatar is really masculine. I'm not sure that I'm comfortable with that. And I KNOW Rich isn't comfortable with that. I mean, I'D hate to wake up with that dude in bed.

I agree with you, sequels never are as good as the original movie titles, but I like it when the storie continues.
I would never compare Francis Ford Capolla's Apocalypse Now, which also happens to be my favorite movie, to any movie title from the Rambo series.

The Rambo movies are more comparable to the Die Hard trilogy, they just show pure testosterone action, and that is never wrong. :D

Bond, James Bond. He can survive even sequals..:cool:

I like the first Rocky & Rambo.
