Why do they call it the expendables if none of them are expendable and they all live?

Expandable means a resource you can afford to lose.

That's what their job is.



Saw it last night cause there's a DVD screener online. It's action packed and it's nice to see some of my fav action stars on screen again.

To everyone about to swoop in and diss the movie, just don't. It's an action movie with hardly any plot, old awesome action stars reliving their glory days for our basic entertainment. If you don't like it, it doesn't mean it sucks.

An action movie can be good or bad with little plot, excusing it because its "an action movie" is a cop out, there are plenty of better action movies with the same setup that are much more engaging. They are pretty bad, its just a cash-in franchise, nothing in the movie has any stake.

Right I forgot that explosions that have no consequence and an all star cast of old action stars makes it pretty engaging. You fell for the marketing it seems.
