“Bullet to the Head” Breakdown

Craig / / 2012, Bullet to the Head


On October 4, 2012, The Guardian posted a detailed look at the Bullet to the Head trailer along with screen shots of Sly pulled from it. Here are a few quotes…

  • Bullet to the Head: no one messes with Sylvester Stallone
  • No more backward-looking action movies for Sylvester Stallone!
  • Until now, Sylvester Stallone’s comeback has been unshakably rooted in nostalgia; either for himself (the Rocky and Rambo sequels) or for a lost age of knuckleheaded action films (both installments of The Expendables). But now, finally, Stallone has chosen to stand on his own two feet again.
  • Stallone is incontestably its star…


“Bullet to the Head” Premiere & Walter Hill Honored

Speaking of people being honored (as in the post below), Walter Hill is set to receive…

  • … the inaugural Maverick Director Award at the upcoming Rome Film Festival.  Hill will be presented with the award at a ceremony on November 14th, which will be followed by the world premiere of Hill’s latest film Bullet to the Head, starring Sylvester Stallone who will also be in attendance. The new award celebrates filmmakers who have broken new ground in cinema and consistently stand out from the crowd. 

Thanks and an extra bullet in the chamber to ScreenDaily for the original post. – Craig


Winona Ryder on Location for “Homefront”

Craig / / 2012, Celebs, Homefront


On October 3, 2012, TooFab posted a gallery of shots of Winona Ryder on location for the filming of Homefront.  Here are a couple of tidbits:

  •  The 40-year-old actress was snapped on the set of her next movie with Jason Statham, “Homefront,” looking sexy with a tight leather jacket…  The Sylvester Stallone-penned movie is only the next step in a return to the spotlight for Ryder, who has been keeping a relatively low profile since her ’80s/late ’90s heyday.

Sly’s in Arnold’s Army by Randy Jennings

Craig / / 2012, Celebs


Randy Jennings is a die-hard Arnold Schwarzenegger fan.  Randy runs the TheArnoldFans, the #1 Arnold Schwarzenegger fan site in the world.

Why am I writing about Randy and Arnold here, you ask?  (And I’m glad you did.)  Because Randy is also a Stallone fan and my guess is that Randy’s new book, Arnold’s Army will appeal to Stallone fans as well as those of the Austrian Oak. 

Randy provides an entire chapter to the Stallone – Schwarzenegger feud that ran for years.  Randy also covers the subsequent friendship of the two action superstars, Arnold’s appearance in The Expendables and Expendables II and his co-starring role with Sly in The Tomb. 

I’ve had the good fortune to get an advance look at Arnold’s Army and give it a thumb’s up. – Craig
