Before it we get Inception, though, and that looks amazing.
“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”

Do you need to understand anything he says? He's an old soldier (literally in most cases, metaphorically in the case of Rocky and a few others) who's down on his luck and neglected by society. To redeem himself he needs to commit one or more acts of violence. He'll mutter some stuff along the way, and there'll be blood and finally some uplifting music.

How can Fraz say no to this movie? It has all the great action stars from a time when... well, he was still old, but not als old as he is now. I was going to say, "back when he was young", but they don't make Jurassic Park movies anymore.

What is the phrase? Too many cooks in the kitchen?
That’d make sense if they were all taking turns in the directing different parts of the movie. But they’re just taking parts in an ensemble, it’s just that instead of it being a famous person or two plus some other people who aren’t very famous, every part is a high profile action hero… and then they add cameos on top of that. It’s a genius idea.
The final film may end up rubbish, of course, because there are loads of different ways to screw up a movie besides casting, but so far so good.

Not genius enough to make me interested in seeing it...

There'll be a load of reviews available before then, so it isn't as if that trailer is all we'll have to go on.
