Expendables II

[Vuk]

The first one was so good that it just was not right. I am hoping that this one will be just as good. I don't know why, but the movie always reminded me of this song:

That fits the movie very well, it's not to be taken too seriously and there's an over-the-top poser-mentality.

The whole mercenary and veteran thing usually reminds me of this traditional organization:



Especially if van Damme is involved, he played a legionnaire several times if I'm not mistaken, right?
Good to know he will be in the second part, he certainly belongs there!

YES YES YES

lol, it is definitely over-the-top, but I think that it is just bravado. I just love how poetic the lyrics are; esp this part:

Come to the nightmare, come to me, deep down in the dark where the devil be, in the maw with the jaws and the razor teeth, where the brimstone burns and the angel weeps. Call to the gods if I cross your path and my silhouette hangs like a body bag; hope is a moment now long past, the shadow of death is the one I cast.

It almost sounds like something the Trickster would say. (a bad guy in Thief)

Hey, don't knock the Foreign Legion. Those dudes have a good attitude towards war.

Knock? You make it sound like I said something negative about them. Up to the first smiley my post was referring to Vuk's video.

The guy in that picture looks like Bear Grylls.

Also, little known fact: A new private in a Foreign Legion unit is colloquially referred to as a "Blue Balls." I'll give you three guesses why.

Without using google:

1. they put him in a freezer

2. blue is associated with french

3. blood poisoning (maybe also blue= steel, but having that in your balls should count as poisoning )

Yuh know they nicked the motto from the Bloody Eleventh, right?
