Okay so ever since the other day when Harrison Ford wandered away from his old man cave and signed up for The Expendables 3 and Sylvester Stallone made some not too cryptic tweets about it, and Bruce Willis, everyone has wanted to know what’s got the metamucil wing of the academy so worked up. Well the Hollywood Reporter has the dirt. And just to get everyone up to speed here are Sly’s tweets on the subject. WILLIS OUT… HARRISON FORD IN !!!! GREAT NEWS !!!!! Been waiting years for this!!!!— Sylvester Stallone (@TheSlyStallone) August 6, 2013 GREEDY AND LAZY …… A SURE FORMULA FOR CAREER FAILURE— Sylvester Stallone (@TheSlyStallone) August 6, 2013 And what could have caused Sylvester Stallone to express all his emotions using only his thumbs? “A source with knowledge of the situation says the fallout was over a specific money demand. Willis was offered $3 million for four days of consecutive work on location in Bulgaria for the film. “He said he’d drop out unless he got $4 million,” this source close to the production says. “A million dollars a day. Stallone and everybody else involved said no.” Okay so on the one hand, two old rich white guys fighting over a ridiculous sum of money, but on the other hand if somebody is dumb enough to offer you three million dollars for four days of sitting in a director’s chair in Bulgaria and keeping a straight face when people ask you how much research you did on your character’s back story, you take the money. Do you know how many Central Asian dictators J-Lo has to sing happy birthday to to make that kind of money? (BTW? The answer is 3.21) Wow, just wow. Well, so I guess this means we won’t be seeing Bruce Willis’s character smirk at us while he sends Sly and his HGH brigade off to Eastern Europe to find some mcguffin. Instead will have Harrison Ford doing the same thing, only looking mildly confused as to how the other actors got in his house. Hey, it worked in Cowboys and Aliens. Oh, wait, no it really didn’t, huh? Pages: 1 2
