Rambo.. you not disposable asset
First thing on a Monday morning certain things make me smile.. a good cup of tea, the laughter of a child, the smell of fresh cut grass…. and yes.. John Rambo blowing the shit out of some filthy commies (well technically they’re Burmese pirates in ‘John Rambo’.. but still). The still comes from an Italian newspaper, if you hadn’t already surmised that from the giant Italian writing over the image. From the same article there’s also a terribly creepy picture of Stallone posing with some kids (his own, I think) for a photo… but he’s still in costume with blood and guts all over him and it looks like a hostage situation that’s gone wrong. Check it out here
The next chapter finds Rambo recruited by a group of Christian human rights missionaries to protect them against pirates, during a humanitarian aid deliver to the persecuted Karen people of Burma. After some of the missionaries are taken prisoner by sadistic Burmese soldiers, Rambo gets a second impossible job: to assemble a team of mercenaries to rescue the surviving relief workers.
I still reckon they should have kept one of the original titles ‘Holy War in a Cave of Cobra’s’ or whatever it was, much cooler than ‘John Rambo’… oh well, at least he still has the headband. Let’s just hope the massive bundle of varicose veins at the top of his shoulder doesn’t explode before he’s done filming. Although if it did I reckon it would take out some commies.. wait.. shit….maybe I just ruined the ending….

I know it’s not connected to the main topic, but since I am in the army I must point out that Sylvester in this particular picture is not shooting at all. By his face you could understand he is, but his thumbs are not on the trigger of the machine gun. Not even close… Lol.
