You will not find your next Oscar contender in an action film. There are actors, and action actors, and Sly is action actor all the way. He has made Oscar worthy films also though, he can act, no matter what anybody says. The thread isnt for this anyway, we've had this discussion many a time, and im not having it again, we both know where we stand, bye. So, if EVERYBODY said he couldn't act for real, except you, it would still mean we're all wrong? "EVERYBODY" else isn't narrowminded. :razz: _________________STOP UIGHUR GENOCIDE IN XINJIANG

Copland? What a joke. they built a wall of strong supporting actors around him and he STILL fell flat on his face. And. obviously, most audiences agree that he sucks. Take Driven... or Get Carter for example. The only gigs he can get now are made-in-Canada crapfests. He's all washed up. You'll be eating your words :razz: _________________STOP UIGHUR GENOCIDE IN XINJIANG

I can honestly say that, apart from Rocky and Rambo: First Blood, I haven't seen many Stallone films.
He can't be worse than Keanu, though, can he?

Sly can act, action movies dont really need much acting as such, but when he needs to, he does the job very well. But Keanu is just awful in anything. _________________STOP UIGHUR GENOCIDE IN XINJIANG

Rambo IV will suffer the BKB syndrome. They'll make a $120M movie to attract $80M of domestic core fanbase. WW BO will break it even, DVD will give it a profit.
The usual.. :neutral:

The usual.. :neutral: That would be good seeign as though Rambo 3 only made $53 Million domestically. But it would make more than $120M WW, more like $200M, this is anticipated. _________________STOP UIGHUR GENOCIDE IN XINJIANG

Is he promising it or threatening it? Such a fine line.

The usual.. :neutral: Rambo IV has about as much chance of making $80M dom as a possible Die Hard IV.
The world has changed a LOT since the third films of each of those series were made. And time has definitely passed them (i.e. Willis and Stallone) by, so why even bother? In fact, if you check out the numbers, the third Rambo film was actually considered a flop and the company that made it eventually collapsed.
