To one of the guys from the resource Collider managed to talk with Jason Statham at the Toronto International Film Festival. Mostly it was about his new film "Killer Elite", but the interviewer asked several questions regarding the action movie "The Expendables 2” (The Expendables 2).
Will you take part in the filming of “The Expendables 2”?
Jason Statham: Yes, Sly and the team are getting back together, and I'm invited to this “party”, and I want to go there. I have only good memories of Sly, he is a real man, and I would happily work with him again.
Have you been told when filming will start?
Jason Statham: Yes, they will start in two weeks. I'm filming a movie called Parker in New Orleans with Taylor Hackford, then heading straight to Bulgaria. That's where we'll film “The Expendables 2,” in Bulgaria.
There have been a lot of rumors about the cast. Did Sly tell you who will take part? Or is it a secret?
Jason Statham: It's not a secret, but I can't confirm information about who will be there. There's a lot of hype surrounding each person on this list. I mean, without exception, they all starred in great action films throughout their careers, so their names “surfaced”, so who the hell knows... [laughs]

Translated from Chinese. Damn, why can’t the bastards translate humanly. They just put it in as if it’s supposed to be that way...
About the fight. Apparently, Sammo tried, but the fight was not the best. We'll wait until the premiere finishes and the film is uploaded to the Internet.
Slav has the same opinion from watching.
Sorry that I haven’t added news for a long time, I’m just having unreal glitches with the net. Pages take 5-10 minutes to open, I can’t check my email, etc. I’m waiting for the blonde admin from my very “favorite” ISP to finally be fired...
2 DoD Favorite:
Thank you for the interview, I managed to read it, but it was impossible to translate it - there is very little adequate text.
PS You were right, the translation is 100% machine. ;)
The fight choreography itself is pretty good, if you take away the idiotic flights, spins on wires and outright failure with spears bending like rubber)
Oh, I forgot about computer fire :)
Well, no matter, in 5 years all these computer effects and flights will be perceived as something natural and integral.... This is exactly where everything is heading...
At first, when the gentlemen parted, I was saddened by what I saw. Then, when the contraction began, I perked up. But when they started jumping on the tables, it became clear that there was nothing to catch here. It’s a pity that the fashion has already reached Chinese cinema when big names lure people into call-the-box films.
Another offtopic, maybe someone will be interested. My Kingdom: Yuen Biao vs Yu Zhongguan
DoD Favorit Thank you very much. How joyful it is to see them together, if only Jackie could make a film with this legendary trinity. I think this is quite feasible.
By God, they are like little children. )))))))
Offtopic. I pay attention to everyone, especially Lindolion, who is nostalgic for the times of Sammo and Biao. Voila!
