For the Labor Day Weekend, and Expendables 4th in release, it finished strong. Just out of the top 5 placing at #6 for the 4-Day Weekend with another $8.3m to its tally. Bringing the 80's homage flick to a US domestic total of $93.8 million.

Worldwide it's nearly matched the US domestic total hauling in $90m for a cumulative total of $183.8 million.

I didn't see it but I guess Sly had a large enough role in Spy Kids 3-D to not be considered just a cameo. That is the next milestone for The Expendables to cross in unadjusted dollars. Spy Kids 3 made $111million. The Expendables has a fair chance to surpass that which would make it Sly's 5th highest grossing movie.

I'm already looking forward to how the sequel casting starts shaping up! :techman:

Sly's part in Spy Kids 3D was more than just a cameo but it was still really only a supporting role. SK3D shouldn't be considered a hurtle for Expendables to overcome because it isn't a Stallone picture. It's part of the Spy Kids franchise.

Isn't that the movie where he was metaphorically Satan sent to exact revenge for some woman who got raped?

...trying to I dk down size...

What did you mean there? dk?
 
Re: The Expendables (Stallone, Statham, Li, Lundgren) Grading & Discus

I didnt know if the word was right for the action of what they were trying to do. That's why I said I dk 'down size'.

Saw it tonight (amazed that our fleapit got it, actually) and it was fucking brilliant. Not as funny as The A Team, but a good laugh all the same, great fights and explosions - this is how an action movie should be.
