Craig’s Suggestions for Expendables 3
- I would suggest something big on US soil for the Expendables’ mission. Go easy on the wisecracks and humor.
- Olympus Has Fallen opened this weekend with over $30 million in receipts and an A- CinemaScore. Audiences will still show up for action movies.
- Expendables members need to die. I love the characters, but let’s lose some on to shock the audience and raise the stakes.
- Perhaps the team accepts a mission from Bruce Willis’ character. Since the CIA can’t operate on US soil, he brings in the Expendables to take down a home-grown terrorist group. Although way outgunned the Expendables accomplish their goal. Unfortunately several of the Expendables are killed during the mission.
- Perhaps even have Couture’s character killed after the Expendables have stopped the terrorists. The terrorists know they can’t obtain their goal, so as payback to the Expendables they torture and kill Couture (perhaps Barney and the remaining Expendables are watching on live video feed). Once they kill Couture the terrorists make their getaway. Barney and the remaining team members call in new recruits and go after the terrorists.
- This would show the Expendables are expendable. It would also show how good they are since they accomplish their mission against greater odds. This set-up would start the movie with a bang and give reason to bring in the young guns. It would also make the second part of the movie’s mission very personal.
