Actually, you can say it twice, but neither can be a sexual connotation.

Actually, you can say it up to three times, but yes, again, none of those variations can be sexually related.

Unless your My Best Friend's Wedding and you can get your sole use of "fuck" be sexually oriented with a PG-13.

The mind boggles at the stupidity.

Re: The Expendables 2 (2012?)

Steven Seagal Has Been Offered A Role In ‘Expendables 3′?

First Randy Couture told BJJ in an interview The Expendables 3 would begin filming in the fall. You can read about that again here. To be honest I didn’t know whether or not to believe that. Not because I think Mr Couture would lie to us (seriously, I’m not about to accuse a dude who could stomp my ass flat with his pinky of lying), I just thought maybe he was jumping the gun a bit; or possibly misunderstood something someone told him or he overheard.

Well, now we are hearing from Steven Seagal (who has yet to appear in an Expendables film), that not only is EX3 happening, but he has been offered a role. When asked in an interview with French site Excessif he gave the following reply:

“He [Sylvester Stallone] plans to do another one and I have already been made an offer. We’ll see … “

So, according to Seagal, Stallone has offered him a role in EX3, to which Seagal responded “We’ll see”… Seriously? Take the frickin’ part, dude!

I don’t if Seagal is aware of this, but filmmakers aren’t exactly knocking down his door with roles. When was the last time he even had a theatrically released film other than Machete?

What do you think of all this? Do you want to see Seagal in EX3?

Thanks to Der Prasiden for giving us a heads up on this.

Seagal was offered roles in the first and second one. He refused to do EX2 because of van Damme according to this one Seagal Fan Site, but chalked it up to his reality show and being too busy.

Unless van Damme is killed off in EX2 he won't be in a third one.

I have no doubt JCVD is going to get killed in this one, but I still don't care about seeing Seagal's bloated ass in EX3.

The reason was due to the involvement of a particular producer that Seagal had a falling out years ago. I forget the dude's name, but he runs Millenium Entertainment.

Sly has proved his point. Seagal is just awful now and he needs to get Jai White and Adkins.

Adkins will be in part 2, I think.

Marko Zaror of Undisputed 3 and Mandrill fame should be in part 3. Dude is a bloody amazing martial artist.

Re: The Expendables 2 (2012?)

Yeah I agree...Segal is not the same. Might as well get Will Sasso to play Segal if the real Segal don't want to join the 3rd.

Ultimately that would be more entertaining.

Zaror is who I meant instead of Adkins. (thanks)

I appreciate Sly bringing back the heroes, but he should also be giving a few guys a boost that they need.

MJW is easily the biggest wasted talent in Hollywood.

I understand guys like the Klitschkos can't get into frame, but talking about Seagal? Give me Arlovski, Dos Santos, etc...

There is a reason Unisol 3 is one of the best action movies made in the past 20 years.

That may be one reason, but Seagal and van Damme have been feuding since the mid 90s when they nearly duked it out at Stallone's house.

Re: The Expendables 2 (2012?)

I saw Seagal at a local pub in Michigan last fall... I joked to a friend that "the guy over there looks like a he ate Steven Seagal"... turns out it was him. Dude needs to drop 50lbs at least to not be a mockery.

Yeah. That last 30 mins or whatever it was Grade A action quality. Great work by Hyams.

Was it Avi Lerner?

I know there was a mess with Julius Nasso, but that's a special can of worms... Some extortion plot against Seagal which involved the Gambino family. (He sreved 1 year and prision and settled out of court with Seagal in 2008.)

Yes, that's the guy. I was also aware of the Julius Nasso war they had going for a while.
