There's an Expendables 2. How does that work? How can you possibly make a movie that bad and get a sequel?

As i understand...the first one made money, hence the second one. And i admit it, Tim, i am one of the people who supported that cause, having bought the first movie on dvd second-hand from Amazon...so while i did not generate profits for the producers...i did contribute to the demand for the movie overall. i am an action movie guy.

BTW, Tim, have you listened to the first Expendables with a sub? The opening scenes are CRAZY with a good sub...CRAZY. 3 scenes in particular:

1. When the motorcycle first arrives in the garage...i have never felt like a motorcycle (or any vehicle) has ever arrived in my living room before...but with that motor gurgling...it did! my dishes and cabinetry start to move slightly

2. When the first shotgun blast fires with the first set of hostages in the opening scene...oh my word...stunning...really good fun once all the blasting starts going.

3. Later on, when the airplane comes down firing over the dock...wow...a load of ammo and a load of good audio fun...if u like that ridiculous bass sorta thing.
