Yes...you heard me... Stallone's making another Rambo movie... BUT it's not a war movie.... whatever the frak that means. :ohwell: It'll be filmed in Bulgaria.

"I would like to take Rambo to another genre, experiment a little with the character. It would definitely not be another war movie. I can't go any further with that than what I've already done. What it's going to be like, I'm not going to reveal at this point. But I'm already halfway though writing the manuscript."

This is months old, and after Rocky Balboa and Rambo, Stallone can do whatever he wants.

Uh... maybe an intellectual/artistic film featuring the character? "My Dinner with Rambo"? Doesn't sound like that would work.

I will say this, it's a stone cold shame that Stallone's last films were in theaters only a week, especially since they were apparently these highly anticipated sequals and everything.

So the bodies won't be hitting the floor this time? The rumor is that Stallone wants to use an alternative script he wrote for Rambo IV, which involves Rambo’s daughter being kidnapped by cult leaders.

Rocky Balboa will always be the definitive Stallone movie for me. I didn't care for the new Rambo, but perhaps Rambo 5 could make up for it.

A "slightly different genre" that is more "surreal"? What does that mean? Are we gonna get Scifi rambo? Rambo fighting ghosts or people with magic powers?

I saw the trailer for it, looked like it could be pretty funny.

Maybe the next movie will be Robo-Rambo

So did Rocky Balboa and Rambo.
I didn't see the new Rocky but I thought the new Rambo was horrible. It was made for video gamers and the audience in the theater proved that for me. I've never heard "Pwned" and "HEAD SHOT OWNAGE" yelled before in a movie theater. The whole movie was centered around the last few minutes. He just wanted to film himself slaughtering an army of people with a chain gun so he wrote a script around it.

What did you expect? You don't watch Rambo movies for the epic plot you watch em to see Stallone gun down a bunch of bad guys. Also Stallone made the movie to bring attention to the genocide going on in Burman.

Well the first two has a pretty good plot*Though the first one was based off a boojk not sure if #2 was or not* and didn't fully rely on action scenes to carry the film over so I'd have to say that is not the only reason I watch Rambo movies.

Ditto, my thoughts exactly. That's why I didn't care for the last Rambo.

While I disagree with the complaints about Rambo, I won't pretend it's the pinnacle of fine cinema. Rocky Balboa however is a genuinely good movie and shows Stallone's still got what it takes. You should really check it out if you haven't seen it, especially if you're a Rocky fan.

What are you talking about? Yeah the first one did but the second one had almost no plot or dialogue the third movie had more plot than the second. The second movie wasn't based on a novel. Though it did have a book based off it.

It had enough of a plot for me. It advanced the character and didn't feel repetitive or a complete rip off of something I'd seen 100 times. This could be why I enjoy older movies more. I get to see stories when the idea was fresh and they didn't toss in useless crap to try and make an old idea interesting or different.

You know there's script writing programs out there that will write parts of a script for you based on what your already writing. I wonder how many major motion pictures have a script that used that option. I wouldn't be surprised to find out it was many with the junk I've seen coming out lately.

Now that's a tall order, even for today's modern scriptwriting software.

Yeah I was pretty shocked to hear about it to. If it wasn't from one of my teachers I would have thought it BS.

Like in Futurama.. "Written by Writing Unit 13" or whatever it said..

How sad... And annoying...

Oh, and Rambo.. There's another movie I have to.. GET.. Trying to catch up on all the big movies I should've seen but haven't...
