    The Expendables 3 Has a Plot

    Lionsgate sent out a press release formally announcing the start of filming on The Expendables 3. They additionally confirm the full cast; everyone we've heard before and confirming Dr. Wesley Snipes. But it's not what I want to focus on. They also included the plot synopsis:

    "In THE EXPENDABLES 3, Barney (Stallone), Christmas (Statham) and the rest of the team comes face-to-face with Conrad Stonebanks (Gibson), who years ago co-founded The Expendables with Barney. Stonebanks subsequently became a ruthless arms trader and someone who Barney was forced to kill... or so he thought. Stonebanks, who eluded death once before, now is making it his mission to end The Expendables -- but Barney has other plans. Barney decides that he has to fight old blood with new blood, and brings in a new era of Expendables team members, recruiting individuals who are younger, faster and more tech-savvy. The latest mission becomes a clash of classic old-school style versus high-tech expertise in the Expendables’ most personal battle yet."

    Mel Gibson is playing Conrad Stonebanks. That name is so 80s badass I will name my first born that. Boy or girl.
