Rambo IV first trailer *very graphic and violent*

Yes. Be warn that the new Rambo movie trailer is very graphic and looks going to be what Rambo has all been about. Enjoy!

Wow. A sequel not being toned down because studios think that PG-13 movies are the only way to go. Got to give Rambo IV props for keeping up with it's formula istead of swaying for "more viewers!"

For Rambo IV, an exception surely can be made?

Man, I've never watched a Rambo film before, but that trailer has sold me on the series.

I saw First Blood Part 2 and that was it. I heard Rocky was a feel good movie let's see where they go with this new Rambo. Because the new Die Hard doesn't look very good.

I've only ever seen First Blood, which is apparently very different from the subsequent Rambo films. In that one, Rambo is a deranged hobo who rages a one man war on a small town full of hippies.

It's an awesome movie, though.

Looks like a blood bath to me...
The new Rocky was more of a homage to him and to Philly, and it had the whole father son angle. Generally it wasn't much more impressive then the others, just newer, thrown into our time. Worth seeing if you are a fan of the series and Stallone. It was actually being filmed in my neighborhood so that was really cool, didn't get near Stallone though.
I haven't seen too much of the new Die Hard yet

First Blood was based on the book, which actually had a message behind it regarding Vietnam vets and how they can snap after a long time in service. The ending originally concluded with Rambo killing himself, but he was kept alive in the final cut due to his popularity with the audience.

This of course led to the definitive movie, First Blood Part II, which Rambo IV may be the closest to depending on the trailer (Rambo III is one big live-action video game)

Rambo shot an arrow into a guy, and he fell on a land mine.

....I'm seeing this movie.

after the success with Rocky Balboa which was a great finish to the series of movies, I have pride in myself that Stallone can do it twice.

Way gorier than anything I've seen in Rambo 1-3, and no way it's gonna be PG-13! (something I was very worried about with the announcement that Die Hard 4 is going to be PG-13)

I honestly didn't like a whole lot in Rambo 1-3 aside from most of the first and a bit of the third, but that trailer has me totally stoked.

This seriously looks like the return of the 80's action movie I have longed for.

I'm not a big fan of the rambo films, nothing but a good popcorn flick....er well kind of. The story looks like it will be repeating the same damn story that was in the last one, ah well I'll probably end up seeing it.

Am I the only one who is amused by Stallone's look?

Awesome, pure awesome!!!!

Yeah this is the promo teaser from aintitcool that Sly did for the Cannes film festival, I do hope he is able to keep a lot of the gore (I mean if Hills Have Eyes remake, Saving Private Ryan, Hostel, Saw 1-3, etc. can, why not Rambo)

Rambo is and always will be the man!! I've seen this promo footage/teaser at least 10 times already...i just can't turn it off. .50 caliber machine gun = enough said ...plus I even liked the fact they used the "Land of the Dead" score (that last track on the CD score soundtrack) for the second half of the trailer

Weirdly enough a lot of the times i've watched this teaser I've actually pictured Raphael in Rambo's shoes (and doing those lovely graphic deeds hehe). I guess that's since Raphael and Rambo are my two favorite characters of all time. I'm sure I'm the only one who has ever done that lol lol.

P.S. To Raph's Girl: You're both a Raphael and Rambo fan??? I think I'm in love
