    Chuck Norris could kick my ass half-way to Mars, but he'd still be a z-list actor who's only in this movie due to his career becoming an ironic internet meme / joke. In fact 5 euro says the Expendables 2 will have no trouble cheekily nodding in that direction.

    People don't seem to get that anymore... It's upsetting...

    I really wish people would remember that those jokes about him were intentionally ironic because of how lame he is.

    Most people do know, surely? Never knew he was such a loon though.

    Never really liked him, I don't think he took off outside of the states.
    I always saw him as a bit of a Steven Seagal....a total joke but who could still kick your head in.
    +1 on the looney ****.

    I honestly would have been happier if they told him to sling it, after the PG13 fiasco

    So first all the violence and sweating was cut out to accommodate Norris, and now, it's back?

    This test screening audience lark is a load of bollocks.
    Apparently Se7en was test screened and the audience hated the ending, but Fichner used it regardless.

    The ending to Se7en was changed because of negative test screening. Fincher wanted to it to end with a cut to black, but he was forced to tack on the epilogue with Morgan Freeman voice-over instead. On the commentary him, Pitt and Freeman all talk about how much they hate it.

    Anyway, I don't buy for a second that they shot this with anything but PG-13 in mind. They are obviously just going to CGI in extra blood and loop in a few f-bombs to make it R.

    Yes, but that was just a compromise, the studio, producers and test screen audience hated the head in a box ending and only because Fincher and Pitt fought for it, it would have been changed.

    Have to admit, I quite liked the epilogue.

    Also, I like CGI blood. We all know that what we are watching isn't real and if it allows films to keep their violence and gore, then it's a compromise I'll accept.

    CGI blood is awful and most times it looks like it never reacts properly to it surroundings, instead looking like a quick spray from a can of lynx.

    Squibs give it that extra meaty punch.

    I'm only hearing now that Stallone's son Sage was found dead last Friday, shocking stuff. Apparent accidental overdose.

    I remember hearing that the narrated ending was because of the studio or some other trouble. Glad to read it's true. It would have been a great ending. Keeps with the tone of the film.

    Thaa Dahh!
    Banderas is there as well!
    Very unprofessional from the so-called top entertainment site in Ireland.

    The person beside Seagal to the right looks a little like The Rock as well.

    Kurt Russell is also there, pretty sure he isn't in the film though I know Stallone wanted him.

    The one to the right of Terry Crews looks suspiciously like The Viper from Hardy Bucks.

    Wait a minute, are we annoyed because entertainment.ie made up a poster including actors that aren't in the movie? Or are we annoyed because they ARE in the movie and entertainment.ie spoiled the cameos for us?

    If it's the former, then meh, don't really care.

    If it's the latter, I'd prefer you hadn't posted it.
