Escape Plan - October 18 Stallone vs Schwarzenegger
I am looking forward to the first proper film with stallone and schwarzennegger together as in Expendables movies schwarzennger only had cameos.
I was a big fan of both actors films in the 80s and 90s and better late than never that they are making films together now.

Back in the 80's this was seen as the ultimate pairing. I think everyone expected them to appear together in the same film at some point. Shame it never happened in their prime as you say. That would have been a huge smash hit. Rambo could have teamed up with Arnie's Predator or Commando character!
Yes, in the 80's this pairing would have been unbeatable, but Arnie's comeback so far has been very muted, so hopefully the Expendables' audience will turn up for this, especially if it's any good...
Didn't watch all the trailer, not going to have the entire plot ruined for me when the obligatory final explosions are shown.
From what i've seen they are on the same side.
It was november but now its october 18 thankfully.:) I seen a poster advert on a bus today which also said october 18.

If you watch the trailer they have at least one fight scene, so it's technically true
Really?!? I thought it looked appalling. Stallone looks like he died five years ago but nobody told him.
In The Last Stand I thought he looked visibily old
In that case they've made a huge error on the trailer on TV!
with Stallone, Schwarzenegger & Willis all commanding 20mil a picture the actors were money spinners on their own without bringing the others in.
now the film industry has changed its benefical to them to do it.
Im actually looking forward to it!
The trailer looks good though and I really want to go see this!
By the way for a nice chance none of the films end is spoilt by the trailer.Although it is a bit predictable!
At times it reminds you of the prison in Face/Off and even of Stallone's previous prison film Lock-up. Stallone and schwarzenegger made a good team. Arnie steals the show especially at the end When he finally gets to the CHOPPA!
I give it a solid 8/10.
Contrary to popular opinion, I enjoyed Arnie's & Sly's last lead role films, The Last Stand & Bullet To The Head.
It's good too see these old action legends teaming up as joint leads.
I expect the film to be ridiculously cheesy & far fetched, but full of relentless action & that's what I go to the cinema for.
It made me wish it had been made during Stallone's purple patch revival around Demolition Man/Cliffhanger/Daylight, though I doubt Arnie of that period would have agreed to a supporting role.
Probably could have done with a McTiernan type director to make it be a bit more standout
