Randy Orton was supposed to be in Marine 3, until the USMC remembered that Orton WAS a marine.

A marine who went AWOL, was court martialed, spent a month in military prison, and given a bad conduct discharge. So he was always a dick.

No on Batista as Colossus since Bryan Singer already cast the kid that played Colossus in X2 and Last Stand.

WWE also has No One Lives with Luke Evans which has been sitting on a shelf somewhere with Fox alongside Leprechaun: Origins with Lionsgate due later this year. This is in addition to all of the direct-to-video and made-for-television shit (which there's surprisingly quite a lot of) on deck for this year too.
No One Lives is directed by Ryûhei Kitamura, the guy who did the stellar Versus and Midnight Meat Train (that had its moments).

Kitamura's only good film is Versus.

I can't even argue that the man is at his best when he has nothing to work with because Aragami, another super low budget film, is a piece of shit when compared to its sister project 2LDK.

MMT was awesome in that it was a modern day Lovecraft tale.

They seem to be using a similar font as the show "Homeland" with their logo. Are the plots similar as well?

Plot of every Marine movie: see "Commando"

ie: female is kidnapped, her husband (Cena)/boyfriend (DiBiase)/brother (Mizanin)/father (Schwarzenegger) uses his military skills to rescue her.
