The Expendables (2010)


Recommended Posts

that was amazing! :D

I loved this film (Y) delivered on its purpose imo

This.

I loved the 80s for its action films. The Expendables knows its role, and Stallone didn't try to make it to be anything other than what it was, a plot thin but action heavy bulletfest. Anyone going into the movie expecting a good plot and 1st class acting will obviously be disappointed, but anyone going in with their mind switched off looking for explosions and fights will enjoy the hell out of this film.

8/10 for me. Its not a thinker's film by any means, but its the most fun I've had at the cinema in a long time.

I saw the movie over the weekend and thought it was awesome. Could have used some more action, but I was highly entertained. And that explosive shotgun round that Hale was showing off on the plane was on an episode of Future Weapons. It's the real deal.

Near the end of this movie I was left thinking(with what little part of my brain was functional) that if any more awesome stuff happens on screen my head might explode! :p

haha I was thinking near the end...what else can happen...and oh my there goes the neighbourhood....literally! :p

haha I was thinking near the end...what else can happen...and oh my there goes the neighbourhood....literally! :p

haha yeah I was talking to a friend about the same thing! I was thinking what the hell could they possibly blow up now? then boooom :laugh:

  • 3 months later...

wow wonderful of using the whole cast. the way each actor big name was used in the film was the best anyone could of done. Stallone is an action genius. Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Steven Segal should of accepted their roles.?I rate it 9/10

Right... Glad you found it entertaining, but it was basically just Stallone/Statham show. Rest were thrown there purely just for the poster and marketing.

    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
