Stallone, Schwarzenegger To Sing, Dance, Not Kiss?

Posted by Paul Christian Glenn on June 22, 2008

So, the Times Online is reporting that aging action icon Sylvester Stallone and Governator Arnold Schwarzenegger are set to star in, um, a Bollywood production. Called Incredible Love. Seriously.

I’m gonna go ahead and jump out on a limb here and say that in ten years, they’ll both be shaking their heads, blushing, and laughing about the experience–much like they do now whenever someone brings up Kindergarten Cop and Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot!

The thing is, action movie fans have been longing for a Stallone/Schwarzenegger team-up for literally decades, and to finally do it like this… well, it’s a slap in the face. I’m sure S & S see it as just a lark, but somewhere in the back of their minds, they must know what a massive letdown this is for their fans.

I suppose it could be worse. We could have ended up with Rambo Vs. Terminator, directed by Paul W.S. Anderson.

    I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

    Of course, when he heard about it, Kurt Russell was laughing pretty hard, so there’s that.

    I would totally see that.
