Seriously, you've assembled the biggest action cast in the history of movie making and then you make a mainstream PG-13 product? What's the point?!?

Isn't the current wave of love for Chuck Norris irony? Don't people get more pleasure out of saying things like 'Chucks tears can cure cancer but he never cries' more than they do watching his films? Can we not move past this now and realise that, while a talented martial artist and former world champion, his films/tv shows are almost universally shit. Who wants to see him in a film so bad that it's worth letting him put ultimatums down on big projects? Next thing you know they'll be bringin back Hasslehoff as Nick Fury and he'll be insisting he kicks the Hulks ass. Here's a few Chuck Norris facts for you, Chuck Norris does not think religion and state politics should be kept seperate. Chuck Norris supports a ban on same sex marriage. Chuck Norris has made expendables 2 a shitter film than it would've been anyway

f there was a "like" button for this comment I would be bashing it with a hammer!

Seems a bit odd right enough but given that the first one was so epically shite I wasn't going to see this anyway.

Well Chuck Norris can shove this PG-13 shit up his ass.
I was actually looking forward to this until now, this movie just lost a fan. What a monumental waste of time this is going to be. Chuck can go "Ass bash" Sly Stallone while he's at it.

I can't believe how many people in this thread are slagging off Chuck Norris. It's like a mass suicide pact. Madness.

We'll just tell him to "Fuck Off" and he'll go back home weeping.

This is an atrocity.

The only redeeming feature of the first film was that it delivered on the promise of reviving 80's action stars dispensing 80's level violence. With this film, they had a chance to get the story and characterisations right as well, and there was plenty of good will towards Sly to give him another chance.

That good will has now been betrayed. Sly was the only one left championing old school brutality in a sea of watered/dumbed down action films for kids, now he's sending his Holy Grail down the same crap chute.

As the poster Lukeynemo aptly put it: 'Making this a PG-13 is like making porn with the sex scenes cut out.'

I'll be boycotting this one, along with the doubtless PG-13 Die Hard 5, and I hope others will join me. This sellout behaviour needs to be punished in the only way that will make studios listen. Hopefully there'll be a violence-ridden home video release (although dubbed in swearing and added CGI blood puffs - ala Die Hard 4 - only adds to the insult so they needn't bother with that) but I doubt it.

Another sad day for mainstream cinema.

I wonder how the youngsters will follow the plot not being old enough to see the first film! It's bad enough trying to watch a film with kids talking on their phones, whispering very loudly and resting their feet on the chair in front of them. As much as I want to see Chuck Norris in an action film again surely his time would be better spend doing an orange advert for the film.

C'mon this is a niche movie, the first one was awesome because it didn't have its hands tied with silly things like being politically correct or trying to appeal to small children.
