Rambo creator calls new film "a mess"

>Which would be fine if part two wasn't the most bland action movie ever made..

It was pretty fresh at the time, it only seems bland now since the whole 'muscled up one man army kills dozens' wasn't really a thing in action movies until that point. Rambo: First Blood Part II effectively changed what mass audiences expected in an action movie.

He didn't mind making royalties off the character in all the sequels which made over $700 million. If they went by his book Rambo would've died in the first movie so he can fuck off.

Fair enough. I do like part 3 as it goes into excess being entertaining.

Who are you cosplaying as right now?

It’s exhausting

>frogposter so contrarian he has to post his dispute with Yea Forumss consensus right on Yea Forums

>Yea Forums
I think you meant *Rambo marketing team*

oh its trash alright, its an unforgetable action movie but its entire purpose was clearly to cause leftist butthurt so i'd say given that, it's a fantastic movie.

What THE FUCK? I haven't read the book yet, buttmunch. Thanks for fucking ruining it.

No one wants to watch Rambo cry into a pillow for 90 minutes

I did wonder if that was the case. Guess all templates seem tired these days.

I imagine he's said the same thing about every movie after the first, also he's a fucking leaf.

lel Stallone has more input and influence on the creation and development of Rambo than this literally who, he was already far different in First Blood than the book

My nigga. I feel like I'm one of the only people that really appreciates Rambo 3.

I would just swap 2 and 4.

Serious question, how much of your time each day do you spend making variations of that comment across here?
Do you worry you're slowly getting dumber and not challenging yourself?

>Mexican drug cartels are actually pretty chill dudes, MAGAtards

The trailers I've seen make the violence seem pretty rad. I want to watch Rambo brutalize a bunch of drug dealing, sex trafficking cartel members and I'm not racist. One of my best friends is a hard-working illegal immigrant from Mexico. It's like Last House on the Left. Who doesn't want to see the tables get turned on some sinister people?

Rambo was the best one

>he can fuck off
this, the only reason anyone even barely knows of him is because Sly made a movie about his potboiler book, he needs to shut his ingrate boomer face.

If you take a look at Morrell's Facebook post history, he's quite the leftist.

Based

Were critics in puddles of tears because catwoman was mean to a bisexual or person of color?

youtube.com/watch?v=RmN8N8-KsDQ

The Rambo everyone knows is Stallone, Morrell's version is a completely different character

Essentially this. Remember that First Blood was considered disappointing on release because nobody got what they fucking deserved and Rambo essentially lost.
First Blood Part 2 was a logical next step showing audiences what went down when Rambo actually did go all out, and the follow up Rambos added to that.

Gee i wonder if there is a gun pointed at his back forcing him to denounce his involvement because of political sperging from his leftist friends.
Wonder if the term's "cancelled" and "#metoo" werre used when he was "convinced" to issue this statement.

If Zack Snyder was executive producer then yes, and they'd call anyone who disagrees marvel shills. If not part of DC extended universe then no - they'd call it capeshit. Predictable.

Case in point, these replies are what anyone could predict would be the response to that.

The check cleared and he sent out the bat signal that he's a good boy and desires to work in the future

OP's pic is from his Twitter, he went into more detail on his Facebook. None of his criticisms were political:

>the film is a mess, resembling a 1976 James Mitchum (Robert Mitchum’s son) film called TRACKDOWN, which has almost the same plot, in which a Montana rancher gets even with sex traffickers (in this case in Los Angeles), who have kidnapped a young female relative. That film is typical of ultra-violent 1970s exploitation “grindhouse” films, the technique of which RAMBO: LAST BLOOD resembles. The sets here look cheap. The direction is awkward. The script is filled with explanatory dialogue (“she was like the family I never had” or words to that effect—we get it—explanation not required, and this from an actor/writer who prides himself on communicating visually rather than through unnecessary words). The music has that droning synthetic sound that TV dramas use to support needless, tedious dialogue. The characters are post-it-note caricatures. Rambo could be called John Smith, and the film wouldn’t change. It assumes the audience is familiar with Rambo’s background whereas anyone under 40 will wonder what on earth is going on with those tunnels. From multiple perspective, this film fails miserably. The best I can say is that the first two minutes were promising.

>wtf you have to watch the first 4 films???

>I can't handle entertaining 80's action movies
You're a fag.

He should he kissing Stallone’s ass! The First Blood script bounced around for years with everyone rejecting it. It was offered to pretty much every leading man in the ‘70s and they all rejected it until Stallone who made Rambo an icon

>None of his criticisms were political:
Whatever you have to tell yourself man. He just happens to come out and shit on the movie when there is a current shitstorm about the movie where all the usual suspects are shitting on it for political reasons. But of course he shits on it for "non political" reasons.
I have a bridge to sell your gullible ass.

>Implying that the 2008 one wasn't kino

It would be lauded as a revolution in film making, as the first black female super hero, and it would basically be hate speech to say you don't like it.

>It assumes the audience is familiar with Rambo’s background whereas anyone under 40 will wonder what on earth is going on with those tunnels.

Rambo is an iconic character and in 2019 people have Google you out of touch retard.

Rambo 2 is fun as shit faggot

darth vader is luke's dad and he dies

You should try trap music

Nah. Boring as fuck mate

The usual suspects hated the fourth one too for similar reasons, but Morrell called it his favorite in the series.

You should try dilating

Honestly didn't know there was a book.

Authors envy i think they call it. Steven King has the same shit. That guy who made the Witcher books same deal as well, so it does not just apply to movies.
It is were a shit hot director comes in to your story and makes it better and goes down in history as better than the source.
Nobody would even know about the Shining or Shawshank if Kubrick and Darabont hadn't made them so iconic.

Cheers for completing my bingo card.

I haven't seen the first 3, but in 4 and 5 he cheekily shits on leftist views which is 100% what caused all the butthurt. In 4 he attacks retarded missionaries who think they can go into war torn countries and bring peace to everyone, and in this one he shits on retarded lefties who thinks cartels aren't a very real and very serious threat to humanity.

>t. The faggot nobody liked and was bullied relentlessly

Since when are missionaries leftist?
They're mostly Christian and visit third world countries spouting western ideals. Lefties hate that shit.

Soz mate. Rambo 3 is better.

the ones in rambo 4 were

The lefties mostly hated the fourth because it was violence without Marvel soi quips and because Rambo killed a ton of non-whites

Stallon is pumped full of plastic surgery and Botox. I really wish people would stop pretending that he is a super alpha.

yea apparantly killing pedo rapists and pimps who refer to women as literal dogs is racist. The irony is that we don't care what colour the persons skin is and they do. if all the bad guys were white you'd hear no outrage.

What old celebrity isn't? I'm sure that if Arnold bled his blood would be yellow-orange (like steroids).

Even if a movie's better than a book, I always give more credit to the author for creating an IP. Especially if it's a good movie I didn't know was even based on a book before I watched it.
it.

I think you mean 4, 3 was taliban rambo

Yes user the ((rich))

>I have no fucking clue about anything related to steroids.

It is not about denying them credit. It is about the Authors shit attitude towards the movies. King goes full on SEETH mode when you mention you like the Shining movie.
He has no legit gripes, he is just jealous that his thunder was stolen.

eh, you can judge them both separately. it sucks when someone takes someone elses idea and gets rich off it while the original creator rots in poverty, but this isn't the case since the author is a millionaire too.

Nah I mean 3. It was really excessively stupid.

You know Yea Forums would've called the movie shit if it didn't have Rambo in the title and the villian's were all white.

why is it neccessarily a "white savior" when a white character saves someone from villains who happen to be mexican? Why can't it just be a white character defeating non-white villains?

Because they're cultist retards.

This, original authors always hate it when an adaptation becomes more popular than their work - even when the adaptation is clearly superior.

why can't it just be 1 good human defeating a gang of shitty humans? why are lefties and righties only able to see in black and white. yes I am a based centrist don't @ me.

that's rich coming from a guy who killed and then resurrected rambo to earn a quick buck.

Probably wasn't paid, he just knows if he doesn't disown this he won't get hired by lefties in the future.

Every film after First Blood was the original work of the producers, although Morrell did write the novelizations of two and three.

>villans are not white
Apparently this director knows how to please Yea Forums
Knowing your audience tastes is important.

At some point post ironic humor got mixed with

Rather the movie, in part, has his name associated with it.
This faggot is overestimating his importance.

>Yea Forums heaps false praise on a shitty generic action movie with a getritric protag just because the villains are Mexican

Yeah and he is portrayed more as a very young serial killer.
