Talk:The Expendables 2

Hemsworth's piece

Lima Hemsworth also has an AR-15 type rifle in the teaser, but only the combat scope on the waepon is seen clearly. --Warejaws 07:12, 15 December 2011 (CST)

Poster

As good as the poster looks, is actually the real one? I seem to remember it coming out a few weeks ago but was dismissed as an incredibly well made fake, as the text at the bottom is gibberish. Having said that, the weapons (for the most part, G36K rather than G36C) and costumes seem to match, so perhaps it is an early mockup with gibberish text as a place holder, but either way I believe Millennium Films requested that it be taken down from various websites. I believe the poster below, boring as it may be, is the official one that was released with the trailer.--commando552 09:22, 15 December 2011 (CST)

The Expendables 2 (2012)

Arnold and AA-12

It does remind me of Commando. --Eisiishai 03:30, 17 December 2011 (CST)

Behind the scenes

Bunch of BTS weapon pics http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=36991167#post36991167

If those aren't "official" behind the scenes images I don't think they are allowed to be posted here, you will have to check with a mod. However, while searching to find out where they came from, I found the following facebook gallery that has all of those images and more where I saw something insetting. In two of the pictures ([1] and [2]) you can see that a few background people are using the AKs mocked up as M16s that were first used in Universal Soldier: Regeneration (that page IDs them as Arsenal rifle, but just realised whilst checking for this that they are actually Valmets). I find it hard to believe that they were able to get ACRs, SCARs, G36s, SG552s but couldn't get their hands on a genuine M16A2 but am fairly sure that is what they are (it is shot in Bulgaria as well). It could be the case that the "main" enemy weapons like the sniperised ACRs are shipped in, wheras the "background" enemy weapons like these fake M16s and the AKs (probably Arsenal ARs) are locally sourced. --commando552 07:18, 16 April 2012 (CDT)

THIS FILM WAS DESTINED TO HAVE A BARRETT!!!!! i think the images should be added, they are gonna be in the film why waste time noone will get arrested for adding photographs lol --Quaney Owns U 07:21, 16 April 2012 (CDT)

Like I said, I would check with a mod first before adding any more of these behind the scenes images. When exactly the same situation occurred with the latest Transformers movie the images were removed so I wouldn't bank on it being different in this case. --commando552 07:37, 16 April 2012 (CDT)

It looks like some guy posted some personal photos. The facebook page is just a fan site as well. --Funkychinaman 08:33, 16 April 2012 (CDT)

Unless these are official images they need to come down immediately; someone tell me if there's any sign of these being officially approved so I can tell if they need to be deleted completely or not. Also, the site's tagline is "guns in movies," not "guns on the floor of a warehouse." Evil Tim 08:35, 16 April 2012 (CDT)

We're not allowed to post amateur BTS shots of films? Video game pages do it all the time. The guy's clear to post them on his facebook, hence all the stars posing with him. Also probably better to move the images to Discussion rather than delete them completely so sections can be restored when the film comes out. As for "no guns outside of movie footage", you should check some of the site's pages. Many of them use shots like that as it's the only way to get a clean view of them.Temp89 09:01, 16 April 2012 (CDT)
