Stallone Emasculating “The Expendables” !?
A reader is pissed off by something that happen at tonight’s “Expendables” Screening!
Hello FanboyWEB readers! I have a bit of news here concerning the supposed macho flick, “The Expendables” and I am FUCKING PISSED OFF!!!!!
There was another screening held this evening in Woodland Hills in the same Pacific Theater where the first Test Screening was held just a few weeks ago. My friends and I, all guys, waited in line for 3 1/2 hours only to see the people from what I believe was Lionsgate, who where hosting the event, pull girls & couples out of the line. They brought them into the theater as a “focus group”. Then they proceeded to tell the two hundred people in line, mostly men, that the theater was full and that they could not see the movie.
It seems like my friends and I were denied entrance because of our gender.
I read a few reviews about the film from the first screening. They pointed out that the movie was not very chick friendly, but I thought that was the point of the film.
Unfortunately, Stallone may have taken the criticism to heart and screened a more TEEN girl friendly version of “The Expendables”. I think this may be a different rough cut from the first screening. But I can’t prove that since I didn’t get in.
Does Stallone think that girls will actually be interested in seeing his 60-year-old plus face for 2 hours? If yes, he’s in for a rude awakening.
As a fan of Stallone I am disappointed!
