EXPENDIBLES 2 didn't start shooting until September of 2011 (released in Aug. of 2012). They seem to be right on schedule to me. They could shoot this thing as late as Christmas this year and still get it out by August.

Yep, Bruce Willis is a fucking asshole.

Gotta love Stallone for basically saying "Well fuck you then, you're out!"

I now 100% believe every story that talked shit about Willis. Even though you shouldn't air your dirty laundry (Smith). What an asshole. Go shit all over your bread and butter franchise again with the 6th entry.

No wonder Sly said fuck that. In all honesty this movie only really needs an actual Arnold and Sly kicking ass marathon. I want to see this team Arnold mentions in EX2. I want to see who the hell follows him. I was teased by his comment in EX2.

Fuck Willis

This turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Replacing Willis with Ford was a great casting choice. You know what you're gonna get with Willis in this...Ford, not so much. Eager to see how his role plays out.

This man looks like he loves making movies

while i don't think what Sly did is good for business, glad someone is calling Willis out for being an asshole.

Could Willis not make it more obvious that he didn't want to do that interview in post #284?

Geez, the studio paid you big bucks, at least be more of a salesman.

I get that those endless press interviews with the same canned questions suck but, guess what, he wasn't hired to just shoot the movie. Part of his job is to market it as well and that's also acting. So I don't get his complaints. I would get it if the interviewer were being an asshole. But he wasn't.

And I'm sure even the interviewer knows his questions to them (which he undoubtedly did not write) are BS and would rather be reporting on real news but he's got a job to do and this is it.

Heck, from the beginning of the interview, you can tell Mary Louise Parker knows this interviewer is going to ask them the same damn questions they've been asked all day but at least she sucks it up. Willis comes across as a whiner. And as a fan of his movies, that sucks to see.

He is such a dick in that, but I couldn't help but laugh.

Same here, he hated all those questions and it showed.

I think I'm more curious now about, what did they offer Ford to make him accept so quickly?

My guess: the $3 million that Bruce rejected. He'll only be shooting for a week or two - the part is not a 3-month commitment like most films, so Ford wouldn't be looking for his full salary. Last night on Kimmel, Ford said his Anchorman 2 shoot lasted only one day. He probably got $1 million for that.

Willis, Shmillis, Ford, Shmord...as long as Steven Seagal is in this.

3 million for 4 days work. They gave him what they were going to give Willis.

Gibson and Banderas confirmed!

fuck Willis. he raped my childhood!!

Gibson had already been confirmed but kudos on Banderas. It'll be a nice little "Assassins" reunion. Funny enough, it was Stallone who handpicked Banderas for Assassins back in the day after seeing him in Desperado.

So the second El Mariachi is in this too? Awesome! Now if only they could get Carlos Gallardo in there for a cameo.

We need Clint & Burt in this!

Supposedly Clint Eastwood turned Stallone down. I dunno if Burt Reynolds was ever offered a cameo.

Awesome. Like him more.

Look at the face on Parker. Jesus. I think they ended that interview, and then fucked in the back of their limo.
