Dolph and Arnold united. It is 3 kinds of awesome sauce. Its like the foreign action stars version of Heat! With like Sly stallone playing the role of James Caan!

Haha.  That cast could be fun, but beat this cast, from a Bridge Too Far:

Quote
James Caan, Michael Caine, Sean Connery, Elliot Gould, Gene Hackman, Anthony Hopkins, Ryan O'Neal, Laurence Olivier, Robert Redford, Maximilian Schell, Denhom Elliott, and for you "Cheers" fans, yes that's a young John Ratzenberger in a bit role.

(Any movie with Redford *and* Hackman in it scores highly in my book.)

Anything that gets Arnold back on the big screen is worth it to me.

Pumping Iron sequel anyone?
Yup

Are you inferring that without him, this film would have a chance to be anything but an utter trainwreck (in the best possible way)?

Thats why Im on board...its not like I thought Carl Weathers was gonna bring that acclaimed method acting discipline he is so well known for to Predator either....

But I mean...he's still awesome.

Holy crap Stone Cold too! This will probably be such a terribly good movie.

Is Carl Weathers in it too? If so, I think my head might explode.

First off, there's nothing intriguing about rappers, wrestlers and MMA fighters in movies, they destroy every project they touch. Unless Steven Segal's in it, then it's entertaining because it's so bad.

Great Escape of course, Ocean's 11 the original and the new ones, and let's not forget Quentin's new war movie, Inglorious Basterds. Mike Myers, Brad Pitt, Sam Jackson, Diane Kruger, Cloris Leachman, not a crazy cast, but an offbeat one.

Inglorious Basterds...

They don't even need a plot...Just have all those guys together on the big screen for 90 minutes saying catch phrases and patting each other on the back. 


Hell, just make it a roast.
Yup
