To say it does not prove it. Firstly, I was ready for inconsistencies because Arnie is still the governator and thought they might have to do a little green screening to accomplish some scenes. Maybe I did only see what I wanted to see, but... They use the same techniques I use in photoshop: blurred backgrounds, lots of separation, single shots. The scene that made me question it was where Arnie and Sylvester shared the screen. That just did not look right to me...something odd about it. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. 4 stars out of 5 for entertainment value. But I still need to be convinced those three were in the same room for the shot.
stallone said, in an interview, that it was great meeting and being around Bruce and Arnold. He talked about how they really bring an energy to the room. Take that for whats it worth. But meeting up for half a day to do a few lines is not that much for a govenor to do. It's not much different than a politian taking time to golf.
Possibly. I have my faults...ask my better half, she'll can tell you some stories. But DonkeyMagic post about the Stallone's interview did a lot to assuage me from my faults.
Apparently the scene was done at 4 a.m. with Arnold and Bruce wearing their own wordrobes, shooting for the scene was done at 8 a.m. Raccoon - I had some of the same doubts while watching the scene. We never got a clean shot of all 3 being in the room together and were really only getting individual close up shots. But then I saw how the rest of the movie and dialouge scenes were shot the same were. It also didn't help that there was a baby screaming it's head off during that scene, unbelieveable how someone took a toddler to the 11 p.m. showing. The guy didn't even bother to take his kid out, almost ruined the scene for me.
Thanks gucci888. Yeah, you're right. The whole movie was basically shot that way. I should have seen it, but like I said, I was looking for something to confirm my own preconceived ideas. Live and learn, I will.
I saw it tonight and definitely enjoyed it. Better than A-Team and much better than The Losers. I have to ask, though: With Statham, Willis, Crews, Austin, and Couture, does it star the most bald guys in a movie ever?
saw it and was disappointed in the FX for the shooting. It looked like a low budget b movie when people got shot. Dialog was horrid at time too.
Stalone did an interview with Kimmel and I believe he said in order to not favor one character over the other (since they're all badass, past or present), he rewrote the script and made all the dialogs cheesarific.
Awesome pics of the Expendables crew on the NY Stock Exchange floor. And Crews gets roid-nutz. link My balls just grew hair. Which is actually more balls.
