Congratulations to Arnold and gang of The Expendables 2 for having the #1 movie for the second weekend in a row! Here's our final report from the black carpet of The Expendables 2. We earlier brought you interviews with Schwarzenegger and other co-stars from the film but now let's introduce you to many of the great contributors from the behind the scenes crew!
As we go into the second U.S. weekend of release for Expendables 2, we thought we'd share some of our thoughts on the movie. Since it's not an Arnold starring movie, we won't do a full review, but here is a taste of our reactions (we tried to keep it spoiler free):
At long last, the press release for the eagerly anticipated 2012 Schwarzenegger book release is here! No, we’re not talking about The Oak’s Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story; we’re talking about the second-greatest Schwarzenegger book . . .
Arnold’s Army: A Schwarzenegger Uprising!
Congratulations to Arnold, Sly and the rest of the Expendables cast for having the number 1 movie this weekend! TheArnoldFans, on the red carpet for the Hollywood premiere, spoke with two of these badass Expendables comrades: Terry Crews and Randy Couture! In addition to some other questions, we asked each of them… “with such a ballsy cast, did you find yourself, cussing, pumping up and smoking stogies more than ever?”
Last night, TheArnoldFans.com was invited onto the red carpet for the Hollywood premiere of The Expendables 2 at Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood, CA. Here, we spoke with most of the heroic cast and crew from this sure-fire blockbuster hit to be released tomorrow, August 17th! We have so many exclusive interviews that it will take us until the end of days to report them all but let’s start you off with the exclusive comment we got from the international stud himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger!
;)
Arnold teased on his Twitter this afternoon: "WARNING. In 15 minutes, you will see some serious action. Make sure you're sitting down." Then sure enough, 15 minutes later, we were treated to the first trailer for The Last Stand! All we can say is YES, YES, YES!!! As kick-ass as Expendables 2 should be this weekend, The Last Stand looks to deliver what we've been waiting so long for- Arnold front and center, doing crazy stunts, shooting big guns, and delivering dead-pan one-liners as only he can. There is no doubt this is ARNOLD's movie and he will deliver the goods. You had us at a gatling gun Maxim Machine Gun on a bus. We'll discuss it more after we watch it hundreds of times, but for now, as Arnold commanded us: watch it NOW on iTunes!
Also, shortly after the trailer, Arnold tweeted about an impromptu contest to thank his fans for following him on Twitter and his new site. Just send an e-mail with your name to: voicemail@schwarzenegger.com, and on Monday, Arnold will select one person at random to do a personalized voicemail message for! How cool is that? He's also taking suggestions on which of his famous lines he should use in the message- tweet @schwarzenegger to give your favorites!
TheArnoldFans is back on the red carpet for yet another ballsy Schwarzenegger film: The Expendables 2! We're setting up our gear and going over our questions for the stars who will walk the carpet soon. Schwarzenegger, Statham, Lundgren, Norris, Crews, Van Damme, many surprise guests and hopefully Stallone will all be arriving shortly. We've secured our spot on the carpet at Grauman's Chinese Theater, ready for some cast and crew interviews.
With 3 films in stages of production, there's always something new coming in one or more of them! Today, we saw the first official studio-released photo, plus 2 more behind the scenes photos! Enjoy!
Excitement is in the air! There's less than a week until The Expendables 2 opens in U.S. theaters, and the ass-kicking action icons' tour of premieres has begun! On Thursday, the European premiere happened in Paris. Arnold tweeted this Instagram photo of his POV of the action with his costars and the fans.
Alright, considering Comic Con has been over for nearly a month and we've already reported on most of the biggest Schwarzenegger news to come out of the event, let me wrap up this report quickly. Here's a last batch of photos showing costumed fans, artwork, celebrities and more!
