When remembering the regrettable cultural cesspool that defined the 1980’s, two things typically come to mind: horribly bad synth-pop and Sylvester Stallone. Like a marriage made in 80’s Hell, the two combined created a unique genre of inspirational pussy-rock that bled all over American Pop Culture like a Rambo-induced, survival knife slash to the jugular. These songs that once made us hope, cheer and yes… even cry, now make us cringe with embarrassment that we know every lyric, line for line. (Stop your bitching… you know you love it.) (more…)

Most cynical movie buffs would say no, but I say yes!

Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mickey Rourke, Jason Statham, Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Ivan Drago Dolph Lundgren, Steve Austin and Randy Couture are a team of mercenaries who head to South America on a mission to overthrow a dictator.

As soon as I hear written and directed by Sylvester Stallone my ears perk up. Then you throw in the action movie hall of fame cast listed above is a winning formula alone.

I would have liked to see Steven Segal, Jean Claude Van Damme, and Chuck Norris added to the list but why get greedy.

Sure this movie probably won’t win an Oscar, but the body count will be ridiculously high and your balls might explode from a surge of testosterone.

At the premiere of Resident Evil: Extinction in Las Vegas Sylvester Stallone and his posse rolled up like “Whaaaaaaaaat…I’m Sly/Rocky/Rambo and this is my posse, son!”

Sly gave the Hollywood Reporter exclusive inside information on what will be the finest piece of cinema this millennium – John Rambo: In the Serpent’s Eye.

So, I’m assuming you clicked the link and heard all the leaked info. You’re ready to post all about it in your blog thingamabob, right?

Right? No?

Let me guess: you’re wondering, “What news? Nobody said anything worth reporting, and all Sly said was that ‘Rambo is in a very grumpy mood, and he’s gonna let it all out.’”

That’s all you need to know, truth-seeker – this isn’t The Darjeeling Limited.

Sly stating that Rambo is “very grumpy” in John Rambo is like hearing that God is “kinda-sorta mad” at mankind. January 25, 2008 can’t come soon enough.

I mean c’mon…take a look at the picture! Rambo versus a poisonous snake! A Rambo and snake stare-off! F*** it, this is the best movie ever already.

Just when all hope is lost in the realm of R-rated, over-the-top action films, Sylvester Stallone comes through with John Rambo.

Gearing up to be on-par with the earlier trilogy of films the new John Rambo trailer gives us the good stuff – all action, no chaser. This all-new trailer looks like Rambo himself edited his recent trip to Burma as a highlight reel, meaning it’s the best thing you’ve ever seen in your boring-ass life.

Check out the new John Rambo trailer after the jump.
