Big thanks to James!!

On July 14, 2010, Hollywood.com in their The Things They Say in Hollywood posted the following:
The stunt co-ordinator said it was one of the few times he was frightened. When Randy pulls you in, it feels like you’re about to be crushed by an anaconda. We had to tell him to go easy on the stuntmen.” SYLVESTER STALLONE on wrangling ultimate fighter Randy Couture on the set of action film The Expendables.
Sly & Zack Snyder
Like many other SZoners, I’ve always hoped that someday Sly and Zack [Dawn of the Dead; 300; Watchmen] Snyder would get a chance to work together. UGO.com points out that they already did!
