Question: For the basketball court scene, was there a specific martial art that Jason Statham learned? or was it a variety?
Question: Where did they get their training? I assume Christmas was SAS, but what about everyone else?
The Expendables (2010)
4 questions
Directed by: Sylvester Stallone
Starring: Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Eric Roberts
Continuity mistake: After the plane is docked Stallone and Statham enter the customs agency. Statham is wearing a camera on his neck with a small lens, he even shows it to the customs agent. After leaving the customs they walk across a square. The camera now has a big zoom lens attached to it. Statham is not wearing a lens bag. Where did he get that lens from? Also strange is that the lens is set in manual focus instead of automatic. Yet the picture stays focused even zooming in. This is not possible without looking at the screen. Plus the camera is turned off in the close up shot, with the image on the LCD composited in. (00:28:15 - 00:30:45)
Hale Caesar: What happened to you?
Barney Ross: I got my ass kicked.
Trivia: During the car chase, Dolph Lungren's character is holding the same type of gun that Thomas Jane used in the Punisher, which Dolph did his own version in the 1980's.
