As much as I’ve enjoyed some of those Rambo movies over the course of my existence (good God, are they super violent — especially the last one), I can’t say I’m super jazzed at the prospect of another one. Unlike Sylvester Stallone’s other iconic character, Rocky, I almost come back to Rambo with a feeling of dread, as I’m bound to walk away depressed and overwhelmed by the amount of violence just witnessed. Not exactly the feel-good franchise of the generation.
But, like it or not, another sequel is headed our way, and if Stallone is telling this truth, the film will show us a completely different side of the character — one who has actually gone home after all these years abroad. That aspect has me a little intrigued, but what really piqued my interest is a couple of new set videos from Sylvester Stallone, which he posted to Instagram.

The first one shows him rehearsing a little action shot where he takes a spear and stabs it into a hole, presumably taking out a guard before diving into a hole and taking off the guy’s leg. Eesh. Looks like the violence will be back in full swing.
This second video isn’t nearly as cool, and merely shows Stallone walking into the light for an action pose before walking away.
While this won’t necessarily have me rushing out to the theater, this kind of thing is always bound to interest a cinephile like me. It at least makes me hungry for more behind-the-scenes looks like this. Keep ’em coming, Sly!
