Fan Made Expendables Trailer Questions Your Manhood Dan Koelsch, July 13, 2010July 14, 2010 Macho movies have taken a hit lately in theaters. The Twilight movies dominate the box office, The A-Team was beaten by Will Smith’s son, and, as The Monocular Group notes, Rambo was beaten out in its second week by 27 Dresses and the Hanna Montana concert movie. Fortunately, the group has created a special call-to-arms trailer to convince you to pay to see The Expendables. Check it out below. EDITOR’s NOTE: The video has been removed at the request of the MPAA for the following reason:“We don’t normally get involved, but there was a shot in the trailer that suggested it had been submitted for approval by our advertising review board, and it hadn’t.” The funny thing I noticed when reading the YouTube comments was how many people didn’t like the use of ‘I Get Wet’ by Andrew W.K., yet there were only 22 “dislikes” compared to 922 “likes”. Oh, Internetz.Removal Source: AITH Fan Made Work Viral Marketing Viral News Viral Videos The ExpendablesViral video
