Another trailer has come out for this summer’s sequel to 2010′s “oh yeah that was a movie” RED. Bruce Willie, Helen Mirren, and John Malkovich are back as former spies who continue to kick ass in their old age. Because Hollywood is loath to ever remind us that we age and eventually can’t do certain things anymore.

GI Joe: Retaliation has released so many trailers and teasers that a comprehensive viewing of the film could in all likelihood be established on promotional material alone. Following suit, both a TV Spot and International trailer have been released via Empire Online.

The entire over the hill Red cast is back and ready for action in Red 2, hopefully nobody broke a hip while filming!
I kid, I kidddd. Clearly these actors are more bad a$$ than most, even after pushing well beyond their 60′s. There’s nothing quite as cool as seeing Dame Helen Mirren wielding a machine gun. The Academy Award winning actress returns as a the British intelligence agent assigned to kill old friend and retired CIA agent, Frank Moses, played by Bruce Willis. | Full Story
Twentieth Century Fox Film has released two new TV spots for A Good Day to Die Hard, and if you like the sounds of explosions, collisions, gunfire, and breaking glass, this should be music to your ears.
The dialogue is stripped down more than usual in the first TV spot, even though hearing Bruce Willis say “Yippie Ki-Yay!” was unforgettable. The second commercial has a little more vocals, but just like the first TV spot, there is no shortage of action packed scenes. | Full Story

“Yippie ki-yay mother Russia”?
Someone was paid to come up with that.
I suppose this means that John McClane will be going to Russia in his next film. Hey, remember he was just a cop? Someone who probably would not be going to Russia on a mission? When he was a normal human being, and thus his action scenes had some kind of dramatic weight? It might be tough, since it was so long ago that there was a good movie with Die Hard in the title. | Full Story
