After months of speculation, Sylvester Stallone has finally announced the title for the fifth (and seemingly final) “Rambo” movie, “Rambo: Last Blood.”

The actor simply tweeted earlier this week that he’ll be filming a gangster biopic about Gregory “the Grim Reaper” Scarpa after shooting “Rambo: Last Blood.”

Doing Scarpa based on Gangster Greg Scarpa after LAST BLOOD RAMBO…

Seven years have passed since Stallone last reprised the role of Vietnam vet John Rambo. The last film, “Rambo,” earned $113 million worldwide.

Since 2008, he’s talked about both retiring the character (who first appeared in David Morrell’s 1972 novel “First Blood”) for good and bringing him back for a last hurrah. Stallone apparently decided on the latter as he’ll be writing and directing and “Rambo: Last Blood,” in addition to starring in the film.

Stallone will be returning to another familiar franchise this month. He also tweeted that he’s headed to Philadelphia to play Rocky Balboa for the seventh time in director Ryan Coogler’s “Creed.” He’ll play the trainer of Apollo Creed’s grandson, portrayed by Michael B. Jordan. Coogler last directed Jordan in 2013’s critically acclaimed “Fruitvale Station.”
What will the body count be this time? :lupe:

Rambo has always been a cool character but lets be real
First Blood is the only good Rambo movie while the others have been poorly put together with some great scenes here and there.

Sure, the first one is the best movie movie but the series is classic entertainment.

Second one was written by James Cameron and is a perfect 80's action movie.

Third one isn't that noteworthy actually but it's hilarious how the movie bigs up the Afghan rebels because they were American allies at the time.

The fourth one is a modern classic though. It took until The Raid to match the visceral brutality of the action that Stallone gave us here. Dude was literally mowing down trucks full of henchmen.

First Blood and the most recent one are both certified piff. Although they are two very different kinds of movies. First Blood is actually a good, well acted movie, the most recent one was just action goonery buffoonery. The last 45 minutes of that movie is what The Expendables should have been like except substituting the corny humor in for the seriousness of Rambo.

Im there opening weekend regardless though. I haven't been to any of his movies at the theaters since Expendables 2. I gotta remember there was a long time when his movies weren't even getting into theaters like that so I gotta go while I can. And if this shyt really had him up against a cartel you can expect unparalleled levels of buffoonery. Gonna be great.
