Rambo First Blood Part II Review

[@ShockaSlim]

"Now I wonder if they are going to add Rambo to a Mortal Kombat game?" Recently datamined lol

[@dforman4770]

That joke aged beautifully lol

[@wugglesx]

Does he have an exploding arrow fatality?

[@eduardomagana3858]

(Faints)

[@TrevorMason117]

"And I'm wondering if they can add Rambo in a Mortal Kombat game." Five years later: *Rambo gets announced as a playable character in Mortal Kombat 11*

[@lilguackamolue9792]

I was just thinking that.

[@thunderspear2251]

Like fine wine...

[@BestCupid]

And hes fantastic and is actually Stallone which makes me soooo much more hyped for him. Loving MK for adding him

[@quezplaysyt5455]

I was just saying

[@knowtheplan472]

A little later and he’s in call of duty now too

[@raymondfisheriii791]

Now I’m wondering how Decker must’ve felt finding out that Rambo’s in MK11. Must be amazing to call something like that so early

[@zombiesquad3339]

The 80's was the best time for action movies.

[@bonniescott6470]

I agree

[@dusktiger112]

I have to agree to an extent but the early to mid 90’s had some awesome films as well hell it was when Jackie Chan came officially to america

[@markhamilton3215]

Golden Era , that only our generation can understand Rocky , Rambo , Predator , Robocop , Die Hard , Beverly Hills Cop , Commando , Conan etc etc

[@melvinch]

Best time for music too. Everything just went downhill after the 90s.

[@badbehaviour7193]

Do you know what I watched yesterday? Predator and Total Recall. (Of course, not the new versions).

[@killerofzombs115]

14:56 "Now I'm wondering if they're going to add Rambo to a Mortal Kombat game." Lol nice prediction there.

[@111highgh]

When Rambo uses an exploding arrow on that one bad guy....that was so fucking awesome.

[@Frankovelli]

If you remembered any of the speech at the end of the first movie he said he didn't fit in with society any more. During war life was simpler and he knew he could trust he fellow soldiers. He gave up at the end of the first movie because he knew he would never fit in and he volunteered for the mission only because it involved saving captured soldiers. Although the transition may be difficult to understand without a clear grasp on what PTSD actually is the logic is fairly consistent between films the pace is the only difference.

[@Darkko88]

The pace and the tone.

[@socialdeviant13]

Thank you! Going back to Vietnam may have meant facing the bad memories, but it also meant going back to a time and place where he knew how to handle the world he was living in, and knew he could do so WELL. And allowed him to face the trauma and take back his personal power, which is a big aim in PTSD therapy. Not that this is a GOOD suggestion for how to do this, but hey, it's Hollywood.

[@MetalHeadGrace]

I think it fits perfectly because the first movie has him realize all his friends are dead, the ones who didn’t die in war died some other way after getting home and this is almost like a second chance for him to have people in his life again. All his brothers in combat died and then he finds out he has more brothers that need to be rescued so he goes into the same mindset as he did in the forest of the first movie but this time with a clearer goal and a reason outside of just surviving

[@KB-vr3nl]

5 years later Rambo in MK 11 Utilmate

[@diaz5292]

Rambo misunderstood Murdock. He said "do not engage the enemy." What he meant by this is 'do not propose marriage to any of the enemy men and/or women' (Hey, who are WE to judge?). Anyways, that's what he meant by that statement.

[@chalene1967]

14:57 well here we are. He’s new dlc for mk11

[@jokesonyou5511]

Its 2020 and Rambo has been announced for mk11 well decker you called it 👏

[@jbelisle1986]

5 years later Rambo is now in Mortal Kombat. Decker is a psychic.

[@phillip5467]

"i wander if there going to add rambo to a mortal kombat game?" 5 years latter guess whats coming to mk 11

[@LemGambino]

Posting here to say that you are scarily accurate in predictions, Decker. Rambo was just announced for the next MK11 character pack. ;)

[@GriffinPilgrim]

Shouldn't this film be called "Second Blood?"

[@sirfijoe450]

Good point

[@ScottSullivanTV]

*Whoever titles these movies is stupid:* First Blood Rambo: First Blood Part II Rambo III Rambo Last Blood _(cancelled last movie)_

[@rxtsec1]

now just rambo v, stallone just announced it

[@DUARTE99]

GriffinPilgrim - Brilliant!

[@saltystick_99]

He Started It Too

[@hellboyrp6115]

And here we are, Rambo is now in Mortal Kombat 11.

[@protoculture289]

Why didn't Murdock turn into a frog like in the game :(

[@DeckerShado]

MonkeyWith72Magic Really was hoping that was an alternate ending....

[@Go4Bro]

I can't believe someone else actually knows about that

[@Lestat21500]

[@taureanfrazier3487]

Did Decker really predict Rambo in Mortal Kombat 5 YEARS AGO

[@NatetheSkate01]

14:56 my man really predicted Rambo joining MK11 tho

[@ronkeffer7072]

Nice job Decker, you predicted Rambo's involvement for Mortal Kombat 11

[@thetreeroots]

18:47 gotta love when his LAW transforms into an RPG for the close up

[@Daniel_Lancelin]

Not to mention that the backblast from that would've killed all the rescued POWs behind him.

[@GunthersLoyalSoldier1307]

Decker 2015:Now I’m wondering if they’re gonna add Rambo to a Mortal Kombat game 2015 me: Yeah right! 2020 Me: Are you magic!?

[@renman8064]

Fun Fact: James Cameron wrote the first draft of the film as an anti-Vietnam War screed, with John Travolta in talks to play Rambo's partner. However, Stallone canned Travolta, and after Cameron was dropped from the project, he rewrote large portions of the script.

[@UltimateThanos]

RenMan Thank Christ!

[@tonypeppermint5329]

Oh.

[@adamofgrayskull7735]

@@UltimateThanos its not true look at the credits at the start of the movie no one was fired

[@oddeyes9413]

Hey Decker! You need to review *Rambo: Last Blood* it came out this year (2019) and I'd like your opinion on it.

[@HurricaneDDragon]

Producers: "Ah, yes, Mr. First Blood Movie, you were very creative, but now we're going to have to drown you in cliched sequels." First Blood Movie: "Goddamn it, NOTHING IS OVER!!! NOTHING!!!"

[@Temujin18S]

15:32 - In my best Homer Simpson impression; "Mmmmmm Wonton destruction."

[@rambo8710]

14:56 "Now im wondering if they are going to add Rambo in a Mortal Kombat video game" 5 years later Rambo is added as a dlc character in mortal kombat 11

[@TheSaoul]

6:58 - It's marked 7.62 because it's a test-fire round for training with an RPG. You load a 7.62 round into it as a test and the short barrel of it gives it the same potential trajectory as a true projectile so you know where the actual rocket may land.

[@boatingman11]

Yeah, there was tons of crap like that in the movie. The end scene where he's firing the M60 into Murdock's gear has M60 blank casings ejected onto the floor. The scene where he fires the LAAW at the Russian helicopter would have killed everyone in his chopper with the backblast. The blade on his knife would have completely went through the man he stabbed while camouflaged in mud and wounded him seriously. So many, many things.

[@GrimReaper-dh8yc]

Decker's probably surprised that Rambo is gonna be in MK11. And I bet that explosive arrow kill is gonna be one of his fatalities.

[@jonarhax3388]

It's his fatal blow ye

[@kylewolfkind]

So...John Rambo was *in* the top three? Who were the others? I'd guess John Matrix from "Commando" , and Martin Riggs from Lethal Weapon? I would seriously pay money to see how they would fair in this mission. lol

[@dylankaiser5546]

matrix declined the mission since he was retired and Riggs was too suicidal so they went with a man suffering from PTSD (who apparently went to therapy in between movies) who can kick a lot of ass... makes sense

[@Kartissa]

My first thought was 'Dutch' Schaefer, but this was before Predator, so.... (That said, Lethal Weapon was made after this movie, too.)

[@boxtank5288]

Ah John Matrix, the guy who's rampage EVERYONE thinks (or thought) Rambo does, John Matrix is the guy who would stand out and kill in the open, all the while goons who's aim makes a Stormtrooper look like Simo Hayha keep missing their damn shots despite their target being an Austrian Mountain of Man!

[@kylewolfkind]

@@dylankaiser5546 hmmm... Hey Rambo? How does it feel to be the bronze metal? Lol

[@kylewolfkind]

@@Kartissa True. But that doesn't mean Riggs the character's existence began when the film starts. Riggs has a past and at this point in his life, he was probably newlywed to his first wife.

[@jeffdemas9521]

So wait, at 3:15 First Blood Part 2 has the same plot as Missing In Action? I did not know that.

[@doom7ish]

[@butterflyjill6887]

2020 here, Decker must have jizzed himself when Rambo was actually finally introduced as a character in mortal kombat

[@silverlabilver585]

Now I know where one of Rambo's things came from in mortal Kombat 11 So in one of his finishing moves: Rambo pushes his opponent to the ground, where he pulls out his knife and holds it high up, just to bring it down next to the opponents head Murdoch or whatever his name was (the final villain) inspired the only reason I would ever use rambo, for the cool animation(s) and references to his movies

[@darrenatkinson9640]

14:44 little did he know years later his wish would be granted

[@Brianvanmoustache]

16:10 hes aiming straight at him multiple shots standing completely in the open. Its amazing

[@kuzrahfan2004]

8:56 I was literally just playing just cause 2

[@alexbarajas5895]

As someone who recently only got into the Just Cause Series, this was a very accurate statement

[@youtubeaddict1567]

I know that in one of the Rambo reviews Decker wanted Rambo added to Mortal Kombat. Now here he comes to MK11

[@diaz5292]

At the 17:17 mark, extra points if you can figure out which building Christopher Walken is currently inside playing Russian Roulette.

Haha! Danton!! Fuckin' A!!

[@patricksimpson2183]

This is from 2020 he knew Rambo would come to mortal kombat

[@kruleworld]

Since you mentioned Predator (camo in mud), it also had them going into the jungle under false pretenses by a tie-wearing pencil neck (Al "don't make fun of my tie" Dillon).

[@TDM1138]

I felt like I needed subtitles during the helicopter scene about 5:19. I could not understand a word Stallone was saying.

[@osbaldohernandez9174]

14:56 wonder no More Decker, wonder no more..

[@zardox78]

11:27 Dude... how much do you know about the Vietnam War? You do understand that the whole thing was basically a proxy war with the USSR, right? That it was fundamentally way more about dissuading them from trying to move in and take more territory than it was about the fate of Vietnam itself. The Russians aren't just special guest stars in this situation. They're the reason for the season, so to speak.

14:56 Your wish is my command

[@jamesroper4952]

What I like most about Rambo one and two. Is the acknowledgement of the Vietnam War, and the lives effected by that war. The way Vietnam War veterans have been treated in this country is fucking disgraceful. Believe it or not, they're still mistreated by some people in this country. I got family members who served in the Vietnam War. Who are treated with disrespect, mistrust, and hatred by other family members. While veterans of the war on terror, are treated like heroes. If you ask me, all veterans should be treated with the upmost respect.

[@smokey3570]

Absolutely agree

[@paragonkelvin6406]

They did add Rambo to MK 11 😂

[@motionless_wick3747]

DECKER CALLED IT RAMBO IS IN MK11

One of your best reviews. Also, agree with your point about the movie in the end. Respect to the soldiers who faught in Vietnam.

why would you say that? 3:49

[@BraxtonWages]

Man, I’m glad that you said how this movie does not endorse war. Finally someone said it. It baffles me to this day. And yeah this movie isn’t necessarily inferior because I consider it in a different genre. Finally about the editing in this film with the helicopter battle, very confusing it seems like one minute he’s controlling the gun on the helicopter and then you see the POW is manning it.

[@gastererror2563]

14:58 They did.

[@justinfernandes6182]

Yo you called it . Now Rambo is in a mortal Kombat game

[@grapeshot]

Only one rocket comes out of those pods. He would have to return to base to rearm and refuel probably.

[@butterflyjill6887]

Why does everyone make fun of Darth Vader shouting no? He just lost his pregnant wife, betrayed everything he believed in, became mostly mechanical due to losing all 4 limbs and having severe burns all over his body damaging his throat and lungs, and pretty much is responsible for putting the empire and the emperor whom he actually hates in power, and did this all for his wife to save her life. I would actually love to meet the man that feels good after that

[@Darkko88]

Nobody is mocking him for feeling sad, it's just that seeing that the first thing that he does in the prequels after becoming the biggest and scariest villain in the original trilogy is childishly shouting "NOOOO!" it's just silly. Imagine him shouting that when the emperor starts attacking Luke in Return of the Jedi, it wouldn't fit the tone at all.

[@robinanwaldt]

ButterflyJill Because it’s an incredibly character breaking moment? The real Darth Vader would’ve stayed silent, yet probably kill everyone who bothered him in the slightest out of pure anger and hatred. In general, imagining that the Anakin from the prequels would turn into the Darth Vader from the originals is damn near impossible because of their vastly different characterizations and behavior.

[@bloodrosereaper2099]

The way it's said is meme worthy. Of course, after all he went through, it makes sense that Vader isn't in the best of mood's, but the way it's said is just laughable.

[@danspille6508]

Because he looks like Herman Munster when he does it

[@rorschach4089]

Because he sounds like an idiot. It’s kinda straight forward.

[@harry3860]

there adding rambo to mortal kombat 11 your were right 5years before that even cam out

[@vincentmarcellino7183]

Rambo in Mortal Kombat: Uses a knife for standard attacks Combos use AK47, Heavy Machine Gun and Grenades Fatalities: Arrowdead-Kicks enemy back, pulls out bow, slowly draws explosive arrow back and fires with a calm expression Your Knife is Over-Rambo stabs multiple times with his knife then slams it through the jaw and up through the head Going Rambo-Rambo pulls out AK and empties it, pulls out HMG and empties it and finally throws 3 grenades that leave the enemy in tiny giblets.

[@AustinAcGuy]

Hey look he WAS added to a mortal kombat game. Decker called it

Decker,they are not Viet Cong soldiers. This is after the Vietnam war,so it would be the unified armies of North and South Vietnam or the Peoples Army of Vietnam.
